I've been to the District a few times and I came here last night for dinner. I had a bit of difficulty finding the restaurant. Note: do not depend on the Google maps with the Yelp iPhone's "Get Directions." It literally took me the wrong way. I made my way to one of the signs with a map for the District and located my restaurant that way. I had walked very close to it but Google took me away from where I needed to go. It's not good for off street areas like the District.
Now, for the dogs. I know it's a dog friendly place, but can't you leave the damn dogs at home for awhile or will they tear up your place or cry incessantly because they miss you? I sure hate to see what you'll be like when you have kids!!! It's really disconcerting to walk around a pile of dog crap while the owner goes off in search of a dog bag holder that isn't empty. Leave the critters home and let us who don't own a dog or do not wish to have them crapping where other people walk have a nice place to walk.
