We visited the DC Steak House on a Friday night. There were 4 of us. We were tucked in the back corner of the restaurant, which was fine because it was less noisy there. The food is amazing and the cocktails totally rock! I can't stop thinking about the Lemon Meringue pie martini. Wow!! Everything we had was amazing. I loved the calamari and my filet was 'like butter'! So good. I deducted one star because the waitress was less than nice and really rushed us. She had terrible customer service skills and we did not feel welcome or appreciated at all. I would categorize her service style as cordial impatience. Our bill came to $400 so you would think she could have been nice. I guess she had somewhere to be because she left before we did. When a server blows out your candle at your table, I guess that means it is time to go. Incidentally, the manager (could be the owner?) would take breaks outside the side door next to the table where he sat. He would smoke and drink out there in our view and by the look on his face when he took a sip of the carmel colored liquid on ice, it was NOT cola. I thought that was kind of tacky especially when he walked back in the restaurant past our table stinking like smoke. Would I go back? Perhaps but they really need some image/customer service training.
