Grabbed a bite to eat after a Caps game. Great everything. Margaritas are small and pricey for the portion. But overall a great place to pre/post game.

The food was delicious but the service was slow. We waited a half hour before we received our drinks. I had to ask twice for our check because we had an event in the area.

Valentine’s dinner was lovely. We had crab dip, steak, a crab cake and molten chocolate cake for dessert. They also served focaccia bread which was delicious. Morgan, our server, was friendly and attentive. Another great experience at Twin Arch Tavern!
