Everything was pretty good, but I would have thought a place named Harbour Grille would have more than two seafood options (see menu picture). They did have crab cakes In another section. We ordered an appetizer of hush puppies that were my favorite part of the meal. I had the Blackened Alfredo with Chicken. It was pretty good, but the garlic breadstick that came with it was cold and tasteless. My wife had the mini crab cake appetizer and a side of grilled vegetables. They aren’t joking when they call them mini crab cakes. 😄 However, the portion of grilled vegetables was surprisingly big. The service was okay, but not great. We sat outside and the atmosphere was “beachy”. Most people were dressed quite casually and there was music playing. The cost was $65 before tip which I felt was a little high for the quality of food and service. All in all, it was a nice meal and pleasant experience, but nothing too special that would make me want to return.

It has been years since we last frequented this establishment. They have done some renovations since then and it has given it a refreshed look and feel.
Enjoying the warm October day, we chose to sit outside. We had a lovely view of the water and even got to watch a train cross the bridge in the distance. The staff was great even with how busy they were.
Christina was our server and was absolutely wonderful. We enjoyed the crabcake platter and the grilled salmon. The sweet potato fries were a little over done but okay. The salmon was tasty. I understand the crabcake could have used a little more spice to it but when we asked Christina for some Old Bay she was more than happy to grab a large container full! 😊
It was a pleasant afternoon at a family friendly restaurant.

After a long hike, me and my loves stopped by for lunch. The atmosphere and environment, lovely and welcoming. Beautiful and luxurious entry, which makes you expect a lot from them, and they didn’t disappoint…🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

The food was great, and the place is really nice, but my only complaint which might be a small one to many is that they had no beer list. When asked, I was handed a scan code, and I don't have a scanner on my phone, and I didn't want to upload one. My recommendation is to make a beer list for those of us older folks who are use to having an actual "paper" list. Thanks so much.

Wondeful romantic place to get away. The restaurant is next to a marina, so there are lots of boats docked. I expected more seafood other than shrimp and crabs. The service was great, and there was a live band to entertain. One drink I would recommend, sangria or River Water.

Nestled on the scenic banks of the Potomac, The Harbour Grille truly stands out as the premier dining destination in the area. What sets this place apart is its complimentary transient dock, ensuring a seamless experience for those arriving by water. The panoramic views of the river are simply breathtaking and provide the perfect backdrop for a memorable dining experience.
The heated outdoor bar is a thoughtful addition, allowing patrons to enjoy their drinks in comfort, even on cooler evenings. Speaking of drinks, their beverage selection is top-notch, with each drink meticulously crafted to perfection. Complementing the drinks is their prompt food service, ensuring that guests don't have to wait long to indulge in their delectable offerings.
In conclusion, The Harbour Grille offers a harmonious blend of ambiance, convenience, and culinary delights. Whether you're in the mood for some quick bites, refreshing drinks, or simply a serene spot by the Potomac, this restaurant checks all the boxes. Has bingo. Highly recommended!

Xzavier was our waiter and provided excellent service! The food was also great! The seafood Carbonara was a great size and had lots of flavor!

Was in town from Texas and found this place kind of late in the evening but the bar was still open. The food was delicious for it to be just regular bar food. Their actual menu looked amazing too!! If there bar food was great I can just imagine what the regular food is like. The service was great, food on point, atmosphere was nice and it’s on a marina with a nice dock outback. I didn’t get to enjoy the dock because it was chilly and rainy but great experience overall. We had the burger and fries, crab cake sandwich and wings.

This was a great place for our event! We had a 15-20 person event and this was the perfect place to hold it. The food is amazing and FAST! Unbelievably FAST! The server Colin was excellent! He help get things set up, very professional, friendly and welcoming! The vibe of the entire restaurant was on point, very diverse crowd, and everyone seemed to be enjoying their self! I'd for sure come back several times over, especially if Colin is helping me!

My Son brought the family here for My Birthday Dinner & let me just say along with the food, Our server "NATE" made the experience that much better! He was so friendly & welcoming. The food was more than delicious! The food came out hot & seasoned well. I recommend the ribs & blackened chicken alfredo. We will be back soon! Thanks Nate!!!

I was visiting family and one person recommended we go to this restaurant. I was actually satisfied with how our night went being that it was a last minute decision to eat out. We were seated quickly and greeted by our server named Xzavier. He surprised us with a lot of recommendations for what is best to order from the menu. Some of my family and I did go with a few of our server’s recommendations, I ordered the crab cake sandwich because I LOVE seafood! Our food came out in a timely manner and our server made sure we had everything we needed even while we were waiting. I wasn’t disappointed at all because the food was so savory. I was sad to be finished with my sandwich and seriously wishing I could’ve kept ordering more off of the menu but I was full!!! Thank you to the nice host (I wish I got their name!!), our amazing server Xzavier and the kitchen staff! This experience was a great part of my family visit so that was nice.

I recently escorted three buses of fifth graders and parents to The Harbour Grille on a Washington trip. We had reservations and Amanda and the staff were ready for us. The food and service were great! Any food allergies were easily taken care of. There were large group dining areas that easily accommodated us. This was a great place and I hope future trips can take advantage of it.

Held a private party for 20 people. No complaints. Brunch buffet was plentiful, Mimosa Bar set up was perfect. Room was perfect with access to outdoor patio with water view and smoking area. Service was the best!

The atmosphere and environment from the front desk are kind, lovely and welcoming. Beautiful and luxurious entry, which makes you expect a lot from them. We had a reservation for a table during brunch time. We were attended in less than 5 minutes, because of the reservation of 4. The average for 2, was 30-35 minutes. The server offered waters to begin with and then our drinks. I loved my Eggs Benedict but there was a miscommunication throughout the whole visit.
Another server came by and left Steak and Eggs on my table when I did not order that but someone from our table did -- he had my Eggs Benedicts on his tray! He did not say a word, instead he left. Someone from our table stood up and tried to find him but returned with no luck. A few minutes later, we called the server to our table and we told her what had happened. It took a while for me to get my meal.
On the Eggs Benedict, the runny yolks did the job! It popped beautifully. Ham was flavorful, and the hollandaise was okay. Potatoes fries were appetizing.
My cousin and cousin-in law decided to give Steak and Eggs a try. He asked for a medium-rare, and he got what he asked! (Very hard for restaurants to perfect!)
When it came to pay, the server handed us the bill. On the bill, she added items that we had not ordered. She got that corrected and we received our receipt.
I would come back because of the savory food but the service is lacking.
