    Yes to start off we was greeted and checked in a little before our reservations. We had a drink before our table I had the whiskey clover she had the cucumber gimlet. Both very good we then got seated our server was Erma she did an excellent job. As far as the food everything was great that we ordered has the jumbo lump crab cake and calamari for appetizers. Both very good. For entree we split the lamb chops and she had New York strip I had the 12 oz manhattan wagyu with a South African lobster tail stuffed with crab, everything taste amazing. For sides we had the whipped potatoes and asparagus would recommend both. Over 5/5 it’s worth it Erma did a great job would definitely come back.

    This was Valentine’s Day and the service was excellent! They were really busy, kitchen a bit backed up, however the restaurant was quaint and quiet with everyone from families to date nights. My son enjoyed the small train that travels through the restaurant. The food was delicious and arrived hot. Our server was attentive. Clyde’s rarely disappoints. It’s good to know we can depend on them for a superb experience no matter the holiday!

    This is our favorite place in the DMV to get a high quality seafood meal. BY FAR! Offerings are extensive and preparations range from simple classics to highly creative combinations. We love their fried clams, oysters Rockefeller, and clam chowder. Their fish specials are superb. Last night I selected a specific fish from the market for them to prepare. Room in front usually high energy while room in back better for a quiet meal. Why this restaurant is not in Washingtonian Top 100 is bewildering.
