"We ascended the hotel steps and elevators, were quickly seated at a little 2 person sofa with a direct view of a bit dumb building but a panoramic view that included the Capitol building, the marina, and the east potomac park. Most of the food items seem better suited for late evening less so for direct sunlight and 90 degree temperatures but the pretzel and dip situation was outstanding regardless. They were out of a number of drink items but the Old Fashioned and beer selections worked well. A few cocktails seemed a bit overdone not quite a balanced product in the end but no matter. The staff were friendly and attentive, the seating was varied and spread out nicely, and we enjoyed our 90 minutes."
