Upon entering for our 8:00 reservation the host told us it will be a 30 minute wait because a bigger party coming later, I requested the manager and the issue was solved. The food was good and came out quick. It was Saturday the atmosphere was nice and expected for a Saturday night.

Well another review of Ivy City. Generally the hubs & Inlike going to Ivy City but I fear like many businesses struggling, they are starting to fall off. My precious 2 reviews were outstanding. This one...not so much. We went last night for a late dinner. Ordered calamari which came out burned to a crisp! And honestly I thought didn't this happen the last time? I didn't put it in my last review but I swear it happened here before. Now previously our server was great. Last night the server was just mid. He never asked if we wanted anything to drink other than the water he brought. Which was fine. Everyone needs more water. He brought out the bowl of burned calamari with no appetizer plates at all. We had to ask for those. And still never asked if we wanted someone other than water like soda or cocktail nothing. I couldn't eat the calamari. The tentacle pieces were almost black. LOL. My smash burger was good but there was some really hard piece of plastic or shell or something in my fries. I had eaten most until bit down on whatever it was. Hubs salmon was good but the server just wasn't. Perhaps he was having a bad night. The place wasn't busy at all. But for these restaurants to now charge these EXTRA service fees, 5%, it would be nice to have just basic level decent service. Ivy City you used to be one of our go-to restaurants in DC but I don't feel compelled to keep going back.

What a sleepy gem! The spot is cozy and they play great music! Lots of action on a Saturday night but we walked in with no worries straight to a table. The portions are generous and the food is delicious! We each had a salad, shared broiled oysters and then each had fish. So so yummy. Our server was friendly, as were all the staff we interacted with. A total hit!

Not the biggest fan of the place. One of our other dinner reservations was taking too long so we went here instead since it was close. It was loud, dark & gave bar vibes. However the food the served seemed more upscale based on the price. The food was fine nothing amazing. I had a crab cake & my partner had the steak. The crabcake was good but I've had others similar in quality the same price. And my partner wasn't the biggest fan of the steak since it was there was too much char & he couldn't taste the steak. I feel like since it was too lively I'm not sure what type of event would be good maybe a casual night out? But def too loud for a date spot.

Smoked ribs were good but not exceptional. I started with the mixed greens salad (not pictured) and that was fantastic. The candied pecans were the perfect touch.

Our synagogue rented it out for a Purim Party and it was a nice venue. The food was only okay and was hoping it was better. Good amount of indoor and outdoor seating and food and drinks were served outdoor to keep everyone safe for COVID. Smoking of marijuana or tobacco is allowed in the later evenings at the large outdoor rooftop patio which we didn't do and did not bother us but we have friends and family sensitive to it. Prices are a bit high for food and drinks for what it is. A bit dissapointing since their fish sold at Whole Foods is great. Maybe it'll be better when it is less busy and/or not rented out.

Great burgers, draft beers and seafood. Have a good happy hour option for burgers and salmon bites but I also recommend if you are not there for happy hour to go with the branzino.

This place is truly unique. The smokehouse is actually underneath the restaurant. They have a tavern in the first part and a spacious patio with natural gas heaters and a natural gas firepit. The food is amazing with many choices and plenty of seafood options. There is also a huge room on the other side with a big bar!!! The music is excellent and the servers are all great at their jobs. Most are bilingual.
