    Food was incredibly tasty. Ambience was amazing and the owner/host was incredibly kind and made sure that we were taken care of service was awesome and I can't speak enough about the food. You just have to try it out yourself one of the best tasting seafood cuisine in the area. The restaurant is designed very nicely with artistic touch. Definitely a place to take great photos as well.

    Wowie! We had an excellent time here, and the staff was so friendly and attentive. We ordered the lobster linguine with the cream sauce and the bouillabaisse! Both were perfect, they didn't skimp on seafood and portions were a good size! This was a great find and should easily have 5 stars. We can't wait to go back!

    Seafood and pasta -- this combo is perfect! I celebrated my birthday here with fam and friends, and the staff here were so accommodating and friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is relatively small so make sure you have a reservation.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Decor is modern and nautical-themed.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] For my appetizer, I had the lobster bisque. It surely was not the greatest bisque I've had. While there were lobster chunks in the soup, the overall taste of the bisque was a miss for me. For my entree, I had the Whole Main Lobster with Linguine Shrimp. I opted for the Pomodoro with Pink Sauce. This dish had just the right seasoning. The seafood was tender -- not tough. Just an all around great dish! If I didn't live so far, I'd visit more often! Try it for yourself -- cheers!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Fun dining room and strong menu in a competitive neighbourhood.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Date night dinner with my wife trying a new place. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The good: the dining areas are split into smaller rooms and have a nice intimate feel with fun décor.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The menu has a mix of fun items dramatically plated (I had the squid ink risotto). The service was also friendly and frequent it can be hard to get good service in DC so it is always refreshing when there is a friendly and helpful staff. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The bad: the first dining room is immediately adjacent to the entryway and a bit tight so if seated there it can be a more hectic experience when larger parties checkin.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The mediocre: pricing is fair and on par for the area, but the area is a bit pricy. That said portions are quite good so the bill is not going to surprise anyone used to eating in the city. [[HIGHLIGHT]]A nice date spot or dining room for small parties. On par for the neighbourhood.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Seafood pasta

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Small intimate dinner restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was quick and personable which was a welcome sentiment in a smaller restaurant. The lobster pasta was so good and a generous portion and will have me come back again and again! I REALLY hope this place stays around for a while as the service was awesome and friendly but most importantly the food was good!

    Lobster roll that I demolished!!!

    This place is a hidden gem! I wish I could keep it to myself. But the food and the service were too good not to share! 10/10. Met the owner she is a doll. The servers were amazing and attentive. The food was hot and fresh. I came for the oysters and lobster roll. Both were a 10/10. The food was so good, I forgot to take a picture until I was almost at the last bite. Order a sprite which was super crisp for some reason. Definitely didn't taste like grocery store sprite. Highly recommend.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Pesce is quaint but she definitely packs a punch.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]She's an establishment that has clearly built a loyal fan base over the years as she looked to have a few regulars dine in to this seemingly less than 20 seat restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Tired of fast pass dining with servers that make you feel like they just want you to leave as soon as possible, then come to Pesce. Everything feels authentic from the food to the service, so much so that you'll definitely be back for more. On top of that the food is solid too; sardines check, lobster risotto check! FYI: they're open 7 days a week and they have a happy hour everyday from 4pm-6pm.

    Crab cakes

    What a great restaurant! It took a minute to get a reservation, but it was worth the wait! The host was phenomenal and made us feel right at home. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere is fun and inviting, preparing everyone for a great evening.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The server was very attentive to our drink needs and our preferences on meal choices. The crab cakes were so good, fresh and served piping hot. So good! The appetizers and entrees were quick and served at just the right times. The food was delicious and really helped top off the evening. Highly recommend!

    I enjoyed the three course meal from start to finish. The lobster bisque was exceptional, made with brandy and easily the best I have had to date. The second course, a swordfish mango ceviche, was fresh and well balanced, followed by a lobster risotto for the final course. Each course was paired with a different wine tasting, which elevated the experience. Since it's my birthday I was gifted their key lime pie and it was delectable. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The service was attentive and the atmosphere quaint and inviting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] James took great care of me. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The only drawback was the cold draft from the door, which made the dining room a bit uncomfortable at times.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Even so, I would gladly return.

    Kimberly S.

    Better than I expected! When I saw the reviews in Yelp I was thinking this would be a nice place to just go have dinner alone and enjoy my own company. It's been that kind of a year! Well, I'll be returning with my mother next month for my birthday! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is bigger than it looks while still being intimate.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Attentive and friendly customer service. And the food. The food! So yummy!! The lobster pasta is FULL of seafood!!! Do the 3 course dinner with wine pairing. You won't regret it.

    Absolutely amazing experience at Pesce! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance is fabulous whether it's a first night out or a date night![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is small but that's what makes it perfect![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service is impeccable! The amazing owner was involved every step of the way and made it a truly memorable experience! Now the big question - the food! Freaking amazing! The mango ceviche was EVERYTHING! A little sweet, a little spice and super fresh seafood! We ordered the lobster risotto and lobster pasta and the portions were huge and flavor was even bigger! It's legit our new go to restaurant! We can't wait to go back!!

    Scallops with spinach
    John M.

    My wife and I visited Pesce Seafood House for her birthday based on the Yelp reviews. We are so glad we did! Here is what we liked: - We made it there 15 minutes before happy hour ended, so we were able to get some special drink and appetizer pricing. - The restaurant is beautiful, with artwork throughout... It really gave you the feel of the sea. - The menu is so broad with so many raw bar, grilled, fried, and other options that we had a hard time choosing - The food was exceptional. We started with a ceviche appetizer and also sardines...both were very good. For our meals, my wife got the scallops with spinach, and I got the lobster roll and swapped in spinach for the french fries. The scallops were cooked perfectly, and the lobster roll, which could be prepared in one of two styles, was so nice and buttery. The spinach also was excellent. - They presented my wife with a key lime dessert with a candle on top for her birthday. It was very tasty. - Service was great....attentive but not overbearing. Note: They automatically add a 20% gratuity on your bill. Bottom line: Pesce Seafood House is a gem...we would go back in a minute.

    Every time I come to Washington DC, I always make a stop at this amazing restaurant. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It is so beautiful, decor designed by the artist/owner[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]], and the food is amazing. I always hit it twice to make sure I can sample more of the menu. It is a must stop

Unfortunately, my wife's first experience was the exception. On our last visit together, the service simply didn't deliver and we ended up leaving. After the manager reached out and encouraged us to give Joe's another chance, I convinced my wife to come back. I'm really glad we did. This time we brought our toddler and ordered the oysters, stone crab, king crab, and bone-in ribeye. Everything was excellent.

This past weekend, I finally returned for dinner with a couple of friends after a show at Arena Stage. The restaurant is still stunning. We sat outside to enjoy the Wharf/water views and the summer weather. The food was still great, too. We shared lots of dishes: a half dozen oysters; tempura fried squash blossoms filled with Maryland crab and cream cheese; an heirloom tomato salad with feta and fried shallots; Massaman curry with fragrant herbs, housemade roti, and the fish of the day; a beautiful halibut dish; and a candied Virginia peanut tiramisu. Everything was tasty, but the entrees really blew my mind - beautiful and delicious. We also each had a glass or two of wine, and they have a great wine list. The service was very friendly, but at some point during our early dinner (our reservation was for 5pm), they got busy and our server disappeared a bit as he got busier. Still, it was a lovely dinner overall - exactly the kind of place you want to be on a warm summer day! If you love seafood and summer vibes, Fish Shop should definitely be on your list.

We were seated immediately and the dining room is adequate. Sufficiently decorated to make it okay. It is furnished for maximum occupancy which is fine. Think casual place, almost bar with food, not fancy at all. I do not mean for this to be a negative comment. Hank's presents itself as more of a beachside joint, not a high end seafood restaurant. Each of these sorts of restaurants has a place in the spectrum. Our waiter - Keith or Kevin - I'm so sorry but I cannot remember his name - was GREAT! Funny, good at his job, great personality and helpful. He started out with a corny, but cute, joke and he kept getting better all night. The manager too was quite good, professional and friendly. What a great staff! The food is good. I could talk about the lobster bisque (a bit on the strong side) or the flounder (a bit on the salty side).

Asparagus, calamari, shrimp cocktail, coal roasted oysters, chicken chermoula, and lump crab gratin. Worth every penny. One tip worth sharing, ask for a bit of sea salt for the chicken.

Overall, I would highly recommend Quarterdeck to anyone visiting the Washington, DC area. The friendly service and great food definitely made it a place I'd come back to.

Their happy hour is one of the highlights, offering discounted oysters, drinks, and select appetizers during designated hours. I started with the spinach and artichoke dip, which arrived piping hot and topped with a generous layer of melted Parmesan. The dip was creamy, cheesy, and packed with spinach and artichokes without being overly heavy. It had a rich, savory flavor that paired perfectly with the warm, crispy house-made tortilla chips. The chips were sturdy enough to scoop up the thick dip without breaking, making it an appetizer that was easy to keep reaching for. The raw oysters were the star of the meal. They were served beautifully over ice with fresh lemon and a variety of sauces. The oysters tasted incredibly fresh clean, briny, and buttery with no fishy aftertaste. Each one had its own subtle flavor, and the accompaniments enhanced them without overpowering their natural taste. At happy hour pricing, they were an outstanding value and definitely something I'd order again. To drink, I had a margarita, which was refreshing and well-balanced. It wasn't overly sweet, allowing the citrus and tequila flavors to shine through. The salted rim added the perfect finishing touch, making it an ideal pairing with both the oysters and the creamy dip. The atmosphere was lively without feeling overcrowded, making it a great place for catching up with friends or enjoying an after-work happy hour. Service was attentive, and the food arrived quickly despite the restaurant being busy.
