Zena's (the proprietor) knowledge is only exceeded by her welcoming personality. The other half is a small cafe where she serves a rotating cast of wines by the glass or bottle. You can also order anything from the retail side. The real star is the snacks she serves. She makes most of them and they are amazing. Try the "little Debbie Oatmeal Crème pies. They are life altering good. The third half of the store (math is not my thing) is a wine focused curio shop. Much of the merchandise is vintage bar ware that you just can't find. Lots of good R-rated coasters and tea towels as well. If you are in National Landing for any reason you should stop by this little gem.

Parking in the garage, which the restaurant will validate for up to 2 hours (with a purchase of an entree). We got the chicken ($36), salmon ($35), and burger ($28)- I think the burger was the tastiest but it doesn't come with lettuce/tomato (you have to ask for it)- the fries weren't it though. Chicken was alright, salmon was eh. Again not here for the food. All in all with a Diet Coke and a lemonade it came out to $120. They do give you mid bread (kind of cold, kind of warm- seems like this Hawaiian rolls).

My wife and I joined two friends for dinner at the Skydome Restaurant atop the DoubleTree in…read moreCrystal City on a recent Saturday night to celebrate a birthday during the Cherry Blossom Festival. Reservations were easy to make, we were seated very quickly, the chairs were comfortable, and the ambiance was beautiful. It is hard to beat a rotating restaurant and the views it offers. The food was excellent. We tried the prix fixe Cherry Blossom special, which included a choice of short ribs or salmon, and both were very good. The specialty drinks for the occasion were excellent, the desserts were very good, and the overall experience was memorable. My only concern was the service. I am not sure whether it was because it was late in the evening, but our waiter seemed very disengaged. For a restaurant that presents itself this well, I would expect the service staff to be much more attentive and invested in the guest experience. We would return, but I would prefer not to be served by him again.

Good quality food but quantity needs a change…read more Food: (4/5) My main concern about the food is the portion size. I've been here a few times over the years and I wish they offered different portion sizes. Crab cakes: 5/5. As a Marylander, I know my lump crab cakes and these were a hit. If you don't like peppers in your crab cakes then you may not care for it but I DO so it was delicious. The portion size of crab cakes were fine. Sweet potatoes casserole: 5/5 This is the main dish I look for every visit, but I was upset the portion size. RC should offer a $24 option that's a bigger portion that actually shareable for a table of 3-4. The portion size provided is really only good for MAYBE two people. If you're ordering for two toddlers this would be perfect but for 2-3 adults...no. Mashed potatoes: 3/5 - I've had better at competing restaurants. House Salad: 3/5 - It was okay, nothing special. I wanted to get the brussel sprouts but they were cooked in bacon grease. Service 4/5: Kelly (I assume she was the manager) was great with communicating that the kitchen was behind on order before we even realized they were taking long. My grandma did have to ask for some tea a couple of times but our server apologized and made sure we were accommodated the whole night. The other assistant server packaged our food to-go as well which was helpful. Vibes: (3/5) Came here on a Easter and it wasn't that crowded. I sat by the window that had a view that looked over Reagan Airport. Watching the airplanes take off while eating was beautiful. I would like to see RC renovate this location as I felt a slightly "dusty" vibe. The restroom is somewhat far from the main dining room, which I'm fine with but I had an elder with me so it was a hike for her. It freezing in there so bring a jacket. Overall (4/5) : RC has great food. I wish they could add bigger portion size options and more healthy vegetables options that do not include bacon grease or cheese. I have higher expectations for upscale restaurants, so I would like to see some improvements.

I am trying to force myself to try other slices of their menu, but I simply do not want to fix what is not broken. Of the two I have had (sausage/pepperoni/sausage with red/green peppers) I love the pepperoni and the sausage with peppers. I ALWAYS ask for insane amount of fresh hot garlic which is just DeVine because I am eating by myself at either lunch or a light dinner. The staff there is always polite, professional and making sure they understand my order (because I ask for INSANE amount of garlic on my slice). My go to for veggies is the Greek Salad. I love that they give two choices for Lunch Specials. I have Never been there when the bathroom was not clean. They have always played nice general music. The space is always clean, quaint and cozy. I am looking forward to going on the weekend for Pizza and Cocktails.

My friend and I stopped by the Water Park for dinner, and because I wasn't too hungry, I decided to…read moregrab a slice from Crush. I've tried a bite of the pizza in the past and thought it was pretty good, so I wanted to finally get my own! The line was a few people long, and it didn't take too long for my slice to be ready. MARGHERITA SLICE - 5.50 The slice was on the smaller side, but I wasn't going to argue since I wasn't too hungry to begin with. But after tax, it was 6.05, which is kind of pricy for just a slice. The margherita slice didn't really look like a margherita slice. It looked more like cheese pizza with a few shriveled pieces of basil and a random slice of tomato, which I have yet to see on any margherita pizza. The flavor was fine, but I also accepted that it's just a cheese slice with a single tomato slice. Maybe I need to try a different pizza if I return in the future. It's just a bit expensive, but that's Water Park for ya!

Overall a good experience at a clean and unique theater, but there's a learning curve that first…read moretimers should know about going in. The layout isn't intuitive. Theater 1 isn't clearly labeled and you just have to know it's the large main room. The ordering system also takes some getting used to. You start with a QR code but at a certain point it cuts off and you have to handwrite your order on a paper slip and press a button to call your server. In a very dark theater that's not practical, and there's no confirmation that the button was actually pressed. Service was inconsistent. We ordered bottomless popcorn and M&Ms. The M&Ms arrived after about 15 minutes but I had to remind them about the popcorn, which didn't come until nearly 45 minutes into the movie. We skipped ordering real food because we weren't confident it would arrive in time to enjoy during the film. That said, the chairs are comfortable, the staff is friendly, and the pricing is noticeably better than other dine-in theaters in the DMV. It has real potential. Just go in knowing it rewards regulars more than first timers.

What can I say about Alamo Drafthouse that hasn't already been said? It's a great theatre chain!…read more One of the reasons I was most excited to move to Arlington was to be in proximity to not one but two Alamo Drafthouses -- one of which was in Pentagon City! It's right by a metro stop but normally I drive to the theatre since parking is validated by the theatre. If you're arriving at the theatre early and you wanna kill some time, depending on what day you go they do Trivia at the bar which is great! Everytime I'm at a Alamo Drafthouse I feel like a VIP. The food is great especially the milkshakes -- never in my life did I think a movie theatre milkshake was great but here we are! The interior is extremely clean and the entire business looks and feels like an upscale movie theatre. You truly get a great cinematic experience when you come to the Alamo Drafthouse.

For under $70 two people can have crab cakes benedict, fried brussels, crispy French toast... I don't even remember. Like ten different things! I didn't have to eat again until 9pm. The food was great! Vinny, who was our handler (clearly he has training in special education or something because we that table. Or maybe the TIPS trainings have advanced to include messy brunch people) was fun, patient, and knowledgeable. This is THE SPOT for brunch on Sunday.

I visited Makers Union Pentagon City for a 4:45pm Thursday reservation for four. I arrived on time…read moreand was seated outside on the patio. Unfortunately, service started off on the wrong foot. There was a very large party already on the patio, and I was seated behind them. I waited about 12-15 minutes before the rest of my group arrived, but no server ever came by. We decided to head inside to get re‑seated, but couldn't find a hostess anywhere. We eventually flagged down a random server in the bar area and asked if a four‑top could be cleared so we could sit there instead. Thankfully, once we moved inside, everything improved dramatically. Service from that point on was attentive and friendly. The "Peoples Hour" menu was a highlight--great pricing without feeling "cheap." Appetizers were $6-10, cocktails $6-8, wines $6, and beers $6.50. The Down & Dirty (a vodka martini variation without vermouth) was solid, and the Out of the Office...Forever rum punch was decent. For food, we tried several items: - Makers Mini Nachos with steak -- Generous toppings but the chips got soggy quickly under all the queso, sour cream, and guac, which is not necessarily a bad thing. - Taco-bout Fish -- Crispy cod with a lemon aioli; one of the better bites of the night. - Drop It Like It's Hot -- Really good chicken tenders with a spicy Comeback sauce. - Lil B sliders -- Nicely cooked and not overdone; the Comeback sauce added a nice kick. The space has an upscale sports‑bar vibe with TVs above and around the bar. Seating can feel tight when it's busy, and the noise level definitely climbs, so keep that in mind if you're looking for a quieter meal. Despite the rocky start, the rest of the evening was enjoyable. Good food, great happy hour pricing, and solid service once we were settled inside. I'd return--just probably not to the patio during a big party.
