    Were unable to adequately accommodate dairy allergy adequately. Very unexpected since it’s an upscale seafood restaurant with so many fish options. My guess is if the waiter would have asked the chef I could’ve been accommodated easily.

    Great place to celebrate Thanksgiving especially if someone in your party wants seafood. This restaurant has great variety of seafood and preparation is the best. Side dishes such as creamed corn tasty. Also a turkey dish with all the trimmings. Valet parking.

    We visited The Oceanaire in DC last night. As always, it was a great dining experience. Our bartender, Luis is a really nice person and we enjoy talking with him. He mixes great cocktails and always remembers our drinks. We had the filet mignon, slightly charred and perfectly medium rare, and an order of the best hash browns in the DC area. We will be returning soon.
