Restaurants near Jefferson National Expansion Memorial

Great date night. I had the roast chicken. David had the mussels. We shared a salad. Everything was perfectly cooked and the service was great.

Such a fun atmosphere and perfect for girls night out. Our server, Mick, was wonderful.

The venue is upscale and comfortable. Has a beautiful view of bridge, river, and arch from the restaurant and in lobby. Andrew as a server was great and attentive. He made some great menu suggestions and was attentive. The food was excellent, we split beef Wellington and pan seared scallops as recommended. They were delicious and cooked well. We also had the truffle fries and Caesar salad, which were also excellent. The sticky toffee pudding was a great way to finish off dinner. We were here for a birthday and I would highly recommend this restaurant.

Our server, Matthew, was knowledgeable about the menu. He kept our evening at a relaxed pace, allowing us to enjoy each delicious course. Our steaks were done to perfection. The creamed spinach is amazing, as are the potatoes au gratin. We tried the white chocolate bread pudding at our server’s suggestion. It was a wonderful dessert to end our evening.

This weekend evening at dinner time when the local baseball game was on-going should have provided personalized and individualized care. However, with one bartender and one server (I so no food runner or assistants or managers either) the service was slow. When it happened, the server was marginal but the bartender, Toni, was absolutely fabulous! She not only made you feel welcome and appreciated, she made the BEST Paper Plane in the Universe! The mix of doos that we selected was well presented and tasty. The menu however is very small and Pennydrop is more of an upscale bar with a small bar menu as opposed to a full service restaurant with an amazing bar. When the baseball game finished and a crowd from the game flowed in, the service slowed even further and lines at the bar were much longer. With a few more staff members, the experience would have been maximized. Regardless of this, I will be back for my next Paper Plane before I head out of town.
