The Point brings the thrill and robust flavors of open flame cooking with the freshest seafood in the city. Perfectly situated at the confluence of the Potomac and Anacostia Rivers, our contemporary design, tranquil open-air patio and premium fire pits, compliment the picturesque and panoramic views.

    Food was delish. Service was a little slow but seems like lack of communication.

    Crab doughnuts, cornbread, and dessert are a must get! Service struggled during our meal. They forgot a meal and graciously took it off the bill. Kitchen was fast and food was excellent.

    We had a great time celebrating my son‘s 21st birthday at The Point. This was our family’s first time at this establishment, and we were impressed with the food, the service, the spacious layout, and the great waterside view. The menu was pretty diverse, including it seafood options, which were the reason we chose this restaurant for our party.

    The waiter Ricardo was excellent. He was very knowledgeable about the menu. The beet salad was good. The sea bass was good but on the expensive side. The crab cake sandwich was good. Lots of crab meat and little filling. I would go back and try other dishes

    Great fun atmosphere on the water. Meal was very good. Service really sucked. It was slow. Waiter, while present, was very unattentive, and clearly not into it.

    Started at the high top but moved due to the sun. The bartender never came over to greet us. Went to the host stand to ask was someone going to come over and he said only if you go to a different area. Once we sat there over server was nice. My food was okay but modifications were missed.
