We were a party of 8 visiting DC sites and decided to eat at this restaurant for my daughter's birthday. We should have made a beeline for the door as we were the only one's dining. The atmosphere was non existent. We arrived at 7:40 pm and our meals were served intermittently. Some of our party received their meal after an hour wait and the remaining meals were served after a 1 hour and 20 minute wait. Remember that we were the only people in the restaurant. The server did his best but obviously they need more food preparers. The food was good but the portion sizes were small. The owner came over after we were done and yelled at the waiter for not removing our dishes. It is NEVER acceptable to yell at the wait staff in front of customers. We all laughed about the experience and agreed this was deserving of one star. There are many great DC restaurants but this isn't one of them.
