This is one of those hole-in-the-wall spots that I was trying to decide whether or not I wanted to…read moretell y'all about because I don't want to come back and all of a sudden it's crowded. But I love y'all, so I'm going to put y'all on game. Admittedly, this spot does not look like much from the outside...but you know what they say about judging a book by its cover. It's definitely giving cabaret venue vibes (IYKYK), so I really wasn't sure what to expect. But this whole experience was a delightfully pleasant surprise. Our server Kamaria was absolutely wonderful. She has such amazing energy and we felt so welcomed. She recommended some of her favorite items from the a la carte menu, then invited us to proceed to the buffet. We decided to get an order each of the honey butter biscuits a la carte and now I got questions. I just want to know whose grandmother they have back there in that kitchen making them biscuits like that. Because those were some of THE best damn biscuits I've ever had. Easily the best biscuits I've had in the DMV. They were huge! Fluffy and chewy with a generous glazing of that absolutely divine honey butter. If you get nothing else from here, you NEED those biscuits. The buffet didn't look like it had much going on but again, looks are deceiving in this place. There were so many delicious options to choose from. Scrambled eggs, fried potatoes, bacon (both pork and turkey), shrimp and grits, chicken alfredo, jerk chicken wings, fried chicken wings, peach cobbler, sweet potatoes and a few other things I can't remember. If you didn't find anything you liked on this buffet, you were either vegan or just not hungry forreal. Every single thing that we ate was delicious. The jerk wings were perfectly cooked and had a nice kick to em. The fried wings were fried perfectly: crispy but not too hard, and seasoned just right. The chicken alfredo was probably my favorite. I don't think this place did anything particularly innovative or special with it, it was just delicious and well made. The sweet potatoes and peach cobbler were good but both could have used just a little bit more sweetening. I absolutely loved the shrimp and grits! Those grits were thick and creamy and the shrimp and sauce had a nice Cajun flare: a little kick and a whole lot of flavor. I'm not a pork eater so I was delighted at the turkey bacon. It was the thick cut bacon too! None of them skinny, scrawny strips. Oh, and of course there were bottomless mimosas. Kamaria made sure that our glasses stayed full. This spot offers three different kinds of juice for the mimosa: orange, pineapple, and I think the last one is cranberry. We both got the pineapple and we were not disappointed. There's also a DJ at brunch. He definitely helped set a vibe but what I really appreciate it is that the music wasn't too loud so we could enjoy it but still enjoy our conversation as well. This is easily my new favorite brunch spot. Good vibes, great food, bottomless drinks, no reservations... And no driving around the block dozens of times looking for a parking space. What more could a girl ask for?

The space itself is huge and they do a lot of hosting for bands which I'm sure is a good time. The bar is a wrap around seating at least 20-30 and at the time of our arrival the bar was full and the main seating area only had one occupied table. The inside is lowly lit and the music was great, definitely a vibe in there and I can understand how despite their reviews they have a solid patron base. We ordered: Strawberry Lemon Drop - 10/10 no notes Calamari - 8/10 - great texture but a small portion at that price point. I prefer mine with a remoulade and they only serve it with sweet chili sauce. They had remoulade with the catfish nuggets but when I asked the waitress she said remoulade was the salad. When I tried to explain that no it was a sauce she just said they didn't have it......ok. Deviled eggs with crab - 8/10 - they were ok. The eggs were a little overcooked to my liking but they were horrible. Wings - 10/10 - sweet and spicy, great crunch. Crabbed stuffed salmon - 6/10 - came with two sides and he got rice and spinach. It was just ok but at $42 you wanted it to wow you. There is an automatic 18% gratuity regardless your party size so that's something to look out for. Overall it was a bit overpriced to my liking for a location that's not more like a local bar than anything. I would definitely come back for more wings and Backyard but might opt for the bar instead.

Not a huge menu, but the Pad Thai and spring rolls tasted good and the mango and sticky rice was a nice surprise as it was delicious. As I dined there, I noticed that the interior is a little dated and the seats need refurbishing, but it's quaint at least. For the Waldorf area, this is probably the best Thai I've experienced thus far. Sure, that's not saying much, but the food isn't an embarrassment, unlike some northern VA places I've experienced. Also, the spice levels are solid. I had level 2 spicy and it made my nose run slightly which impressed me a bit. I figure level 3 or 4 are up to the task of being authentic Thai spicy.

If you're not in the mood for sushi, the ramen is a must-try--rich, flavorful, and satisfying. The wings also stand out with a very authentic taste that you don't find just anywhere. Overall, this spot is a hidden gem with great food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit!

Lastly, while I love sashimi, the tuna offered with the chef's sampler was just ok. The star was the salmon -- buttery and smooth. Service was fine. We sat at the bar.

There was an ample amount of seating while providing a low-key grown and sexy vibe. The establishment had a DJ and played the local March madness games on multiple TVs through the lounge. The bartenders were friendly and created drinks that had the perfect strength to them. What made this place stand out to me is that there was a masseuse on site. I took the plunge and got a 15-minute head and neck massage, and walked back out ready to party again. Make sure to go and see Taronda for a massage, it was the highlight of my evening. This is an excellent place to sit back and unwind, but I wish that they served appetizers to stave off the alcohol that's being served. Word to the wise, make sure to eat before you come. I did see people bring food in with them, but I'm not really sure if it's allowed.

I made reservations for a group of 20 one week in advance, and I was told I'd be in a private room that sat 20: 10 people per table. I believe they have multiple party rooms with one seating up to 40 people, but I didn't check them out. A group of 11 of us arrived a bit early, and the hostess was able to seat us in the private room without having to wait for the rest of the party. I appreciated that as my mom is handicapped. My party consisted of both children and adults and the server (Yvonne, I believe) was amazing for everyone. She went above and beyond to take care of us, to include those at our second table they arrived a bit later than our reservation called for. Overall, the restaurant was perfect for a party, patient, and the food was great, per usual. Since I was celebrating both daughters' birthday, each chef gave a birthday presentation at each table for each girl. I appreciated that :) We will for sure be back. Good food and good drinks. Thanks, Hanabi!
