    Beautiful restaurant near The Jefferson Hotel (5 min walk). Food was amazing and the staff was very kind and efficient. Joe, our waiter, was phenomenal with the timing and explanation of the food. Highly, highly recommend doing the wine pairing with the 4 course dinner. Truly a wonderful and memorable experience!

    The food and brunch were amazing. I took my mother here on Saturday the day before Mother's Day and she loved it. From the manager Cherelle who accommodated us early for our reservation to the service provided by Jesse, I couldn't have asked for a better experience. More importantly my mother was happy and the food was amazing. The ambiance of the place was beautiful as it was graduation weekend, so everyone was there for brunch. From the breakfast options to seafood options, you had plenty to choose from to keep you full. The bottomless mimosas just added to the experience. If you want a classy brunch in the DC area with amazing service and food options Limani is the place to be. I will definitely be back.

    I work in the hospitality industry, so I truly mean it when I say: Niko was hands down the best server I’ve ever had in my life. His attention to detail and pleasant demeanor! We felt so catered to and everything from the ambiance to the atmosphere were top notch. I am a fellow Greek, all of the delicacies were savory, super fresh, and came out at record speed. Lastly, I have to rave about the salmon- my girlfriends and I all agreed that it was the most delicious fresh fish we’ve ever had… ever! The best part was Niko, but the food was definitely a very close second! - Jessica G.
