I've been so excited for this to open and I am happy to say the dining experience definitely lived up to my expectations. Luckily there were several of us so we could try almost everything on the menu. The flavor combinations were so unique and creative, it's like dining all around the world in one meal. There were so many layers of flavor in every dish I tried. The chef seems to excel at pulling ingredients from different cuisines together and creating some sort of umami magic. The muhammara spread is a perfect example! The crab beignets are so fun and delicious that you keep wanting more. We all wanted to lick our plates clean of the pineapple sauce on the grilled octopus dish. The pierogis and pig shoulder confit were also so unique and delicious that we were fighting over the last bites. My favorite entree was the corn and Grayson cappelletti - it's the kind of dish that no matter how full you are, you can't stop eating. The carrot mustard sauce with the monkfish was amazing. My favorite desserts were the corn crémeux and hummingbird cake. We had a bottle of their Brooklyn Cab and most of the cocktails. The Figment and Apology cocktails were my favorites. I have to say I'm pretty impressed with how well everything went even though it's the first week and I can't wait to go again!!!
I’ve had the pleasure to be a vendor at this Winery. I do hair and makeup all over the DMV and this is one of my all time favorite places! Food is the bomb, there’s a bar downstairs, it’s on the water, a warmed up patio, great family style dining area, soft lighting...and lots of wine:) awesome place to host a party or wedding!!

Woof, what a blessing it was to have a group dinner here. There were 12 of us present. Most of the group decided to share but we had a few rogue guests that did their own thing, which is fine because they quickly changed their tune as our dishes came out, we had a shared, fun celebratory feast.
We started with the chefs whim, it was a perfectly crafted meat and cheese board, complete with fresh fruits flatbreads, marmalades and some mixed nuts.
We had cocktails and just about every starter minus the hot chicken and the broccolini. The sweet potatoes were a bit bland but that was ok based on how flavorful everything else was.
I recommend the octopus, the ceaser salad, the meatballs, the tuna and the shrimp.
For our mains we had the gnocchi, the risotto, the steak and the scallops.
No complaint’s here everything was delicious.
The risotto and steak were the stars of our entree, I highly recommend everything we ordered.
They close early on Wednesday, which or server forgot to mention otherwise we would have ordered dessert. I recommend ordering family style with a large group for this restaurant.
Cool spot on the water with great drinks. Pimento cheese was good. I didn't care for the watermelon because it was warm and savory but if I were expecting that I think it could be good.
Great service.
I have been here a half dozen times for photographing events and parties and even a few weddings. I get excited every time I get to go back. I cant say enough good things about this venue. The decor can be made to fit anything you need. The food is great. Staff is always friendly. can't wait to go back. ig@jsasuphotography
Great views of the water front with people walking by. They have indoor and outdoor (covered) seating. Went early after work one day so not crowded at that time, which is good. I had the chicken dish and I asked the server if it was Costco sized chicken or Safeway sized chicken and he claimed it was big as Costco...they obviously don't have Costco in DC. Although the dish had an amazing flavor to it with all the greens under it, I felt the chicken was not big enough and should have gotten the whole chicken. So they need to teach the staff that Costco chickens are way bigger. Would def order it again and get the whole chicken.
We stopped by for a glass of wine before our dinner reservation across the yards. The wine was great and the bison meatballs were fantastic for an appetizer. The views were great and the staff was friendly.

The hosting staff didn’t greet me or my date when we arrived and in fact didn’t even make eye contact for the first several minutes. We had reservations for 6:30 and weren’t seated until 6:50 and there was no courtesy acknowledgement about the wait.There wasn’t a huge crowd either although I believe there might have been a party hosted some where on the premises. I had to walk up to the hosting stand a second time after overhearing my name come up in their conversation, but no one came to get me. No one looked up even though I was standing right there at the front desk until I spoke up again. It’s like they forgot I existed despite me standing less than 10 feet away the entire time. When we left the restaurant, the hosting staff didn’t even look up or speak. No “thank you, come again” or even eye contact. If you are going to pay to eat at a nice restaurant you should be treated much better. Grocery stores greet me better.
However, our waiter was very personable and kind. He offered helpful insights and made sure we were well taken care of. The man who poured our wine let us know about an event at the restaurant and someone who brought our plates was kind. The food was delicious and brought out quickly, and the restaurant has a great aesthetic. Other than the lackluster hosting, my experience was nice.
Love the wine and the atmosphere here. As a red wine drinker, there is a great selection and I’m particularly fond of the Cabernet, the Merlot (the CA one specifically), and the Cab Franc. The staff at the bar here are always friendly enough and definitely knowledgeable about their product. My only gripe is that some of the prices here are just astronomical; $12 for a tiny sliver of cheese is just a bit too much in my view, but you should know what you’re walking into when you come here. I’ve eaten dinner here at time or two and the food is always excellent.
This was my third time attending their Wine Tour/Tasting. And I absolutely enjoyed it each time. Definitely plan on going back in a couple months.
The tour was one of the best wine tours that I have been on!! Very informative! The wine tasting was amazing; most of the wines were very good!!
District winery has been on my list to visit since moving to DC and I wish we would have visited sooner!
We stopped in for brunch and a wine tasting and it did not disappoint!
