There were four of us. Everyone's meal was excellent. They provided a gluten free menu for an allergy and everything was served as expected. This is my forth time eating there since the renovations were completed. Fabulous meals at the Dock and the Rod and Reel restaurants. Beautiful setting. Will all be back.

Every time I go to Sushi By Bou at the Citizen M in DC it gets better. Chef Alex is always pushing the boundaries on Omakase and his flavor profiles and choices have reached a new level. Very fresh fish with perfect accompaniments and it's a can't miss experience for any sushi lover. And the entire staff is so friendly, warm, and welcoming. Highly highly recommended!

We chose to head to Caruso’s Grocery to celebrate our 10 year anniversary! Our server Marcelle really made the evening feel special and celebratory! She also had great insights on the menu and helped us pick fantastic dishes. The appetizer meatballs were definitely a favorite at the table and the Spicy Neapolitan Ragu and Shrimp Carbonara will definitely keep us coming back! The complimentary prosecco and dessert was the cherry on top. Great atmosphere, great food and great drinks all around!

    The lamb chops were outstanding. More than enough and very flavorful. Also had the seafood pot pie. Lots of seafood served below a homemade crust. Very unique
