   Carlos was great and the food was amazing. The service was slightly slow, especially for it to be empty, but had a great experience

   The food was fantastic. We had the lobster pasta and lamb chops. Would definitely order again. The oysters had no flavor. They were meh. Not briny, not bad, just not good. Would recommend this restaurant to everyone and would go back again, just wouldn't get the oysters.

   Great food, wonderful ambience, beautiful views. Our group of four shared tasty appetizers, an amazing Greek salad and the freshest fish. We truly enjoyed our visit -- my fifth.

   The chicken was a little tasteless and not worth the value.

   Beautiful restaurant with delicious food. One of our party was vegan and was easily able to make choices (mushroom appetizer and vegetable pasta - both delicious!). Service was very good. Would definitely go back to this beautiful location on the Wharf. There was one confusing thing and that is that the bill had two service fees (4% and 16%) automatically included (we were just a party of two). At the time we didn't realize that this was an effort taken by the restaurant due to Initiative 82. We aren't from the DC area and we did research afterwards. It was very confusing and we were unsure if we needed to tip on top of the service fees.

   Great experience. Went first time with my girls for a birthday brunch and they kept my cup full (bottomless mimosa). Took my 8 y.o son today and he really enjoyed himself.

   Beautiful restaurant with amazing water views and great service. The brunch buffet was a bit underwhelming overall. The star of the show for me were the oysters, crab claws and crab rice. I was excited about the lobster tails but they were overcooked. The leg of lamb was dry. Other food items, although plentiful, were just ok. The unlimited mimosas were plentiful of course. Overall, nice restaurant but for the price, the food needs to shine and stand out more. Nothing should be dry or overcooked. I wanted to love it but was a bit disappointed.

    JESSE C was our waiter and he was nothing short of amazing! He made our experience beautiful. We will be back to try the brunch. EDIT: 3/7/2025 It’s sad that I have to revisit this review. I was so satisfied with my last visit and I don’t want to take anything away from the amazing experience that I had with Jesse as our waiter. However, I did Limani a favor by not mentioning the horrible experience that I had with one person from the front staff on a previous visit. I didn’t want to mention it because Jesse made up for that unfortunate experience. I’m back to say that I booked a new reservation for brunch 3/8/2025. I made the reservation a few days ago. I get a message today saying that prices for brunch went up. While I have no issue paying more, it’s the principle that I’m not okay with. The prices on the website show one price and in the private message that I received, had another price. I let the GENERAL MANAGER know that it is not fair and very misleading to advertise one price on your website but send me a private message stating something different. I received a call from the GENERAL MANAGER after expressing this and I was basically hit with well these are the new prices and in so many words, I can take it or leave it. This is not the way to treat your patrons. I will be posting this review on all platforms so that no other person gets deceived. Thanks!
