    Our first stop in Alexandria. Outstanding service. Great Crab cakes. Good Clam Chowder. (A little hole in the wall called The Barking Dog in Indianapolis holds best clam chowder title)

    The chocolate lava cake is the best dessert! It takes 30 minutes to bake so you have to order it with your entrée.

    You can't go wrong with sitting on the deck and eating oysters. A nice breeze from the Potomac.

    Great View along the waterfront, somewhat pricey for what you get, don't have parking which is a negative, reservations don't seem to work, have been half dozen times or more, and always end up still

    CH is awful and has gone downhill tremendously; the salad bar is typically empty, food cold, and service pathetic. The only thing going for this restaurant anymore is the view.
