"The tropics meet New England with this Georgetown waterfront institution’s blueberry-coconut mashup ($14). The tart is paired with whipped cream, toasted coconut flakes and fresh blueberries. For more blueberries with your blueberries, the restaurant also offers a blueberry mojito ($16) stuffed with whole blueberries and topped with lime and mint." - Emily Wishingrad

"An alum of seafood-centric Georgetown standby Sequoia as well as now-defunct neighborhood bar Park View Patio, Olutosin, who goes by chef Dadisi, tells Eater the menu at the forthcoming Alexandria restaurant will feature comfort foods ranging from Japanese-style buttermilk pancakes — “airy, fluffy and delicious,” is how he describes them — to pulled pork sandwiches." - Warren Rojas

This is such a fun place! We went for their Sunday brunch buffet, and the food was great. I dream about their fresh waffles quite often. Some of the stations they have: tacos, crab cakes, raw bar, pasta in a parmesan wheel, chicken and waffles. The service in particular was 5 star! I went for my birthday and had a fantastic time.

I’d give this restaurant a 4.5 as it did meet overall expectations, especially to a family who is a hard one to please as they are major critics themselves. From the start, they are very welcoming and give you a run down of recommendations, possible preferences, etc. Through out the whole evening they kept the same spirit to ensure all was running smoothly wish is appreciated. The food. For whatever reason I had no clue this was a seafood heavy restaurant where personally i’m not fond of as a non seafood eater. BUT they have some great alternatives that make up for it which is lovely as you don’t feel excluded from the divine goods! The drinks were divine as they have the right balance rather than being watered down like other restaurants. Their dessert was 10/10, for all the sweet tooth’s out there, you won’t want to miss out on dessert. Overall, killer spot. If I had to find a downside, they do provide options for children like every other restaurant yet would be nice to see equally as special items for kids as for adults. Also, would be nice for them to have some sort of starter like bread, chips, or something rather than nothing. For the appetizers, more variety would be great too. While prices may be a bit up there, the food/portions, scenery, & customer service, do well on making your tummy & soul more than satisfied! Definitely coming back!! OH — Note, the view is killer. If you get the opportunity to dine outside during sunset, it makes the experience 1000/10 times better.

While the service was a little slow where we had to ask for our cheese (focaccia) bread about 4 times, I would be remiss if I gave this restaurant anything less than 5 stars for its food! There is ample inside and outside seating with great views of the water. The ambiance is classy modern with floor to ceiling windows very bright with natural light through. Decor is understated elegance with modern ceiling light. Tables are covered in pressed table cloth, the right amount of romantic and social gathering ambiance. My friend ordered chilled lobster and shrimp salad which came with mango salsa and sauce and second sriracha vinaigrette. The New England chowder soup was divine according to my friend. I ordered the chicken chimichurri and grilled shrimp with coconut rice with black beans. Heavenly! Right amount of seasoning, perfectly grilled luscious good sized shrimps on a skewer. We would have licked the plates clean if we could. Definitely unilaterally absolute place highly recommended for everyone to enjoy.

I’ve been to Sequoia a number of times for brunch, but not for dinner. I didn’t know what I was missing out on. Before I forget anything else….the lobster bisque was DELICIOUS! Probably the best I’ve had in the DMV!! Dinner at Sequoia was amazing. I planned an Engagement Dinner for a little under 30 and the event coordinator was extremely timely and accurate with the planning. They had nice touches and even incorporated the couples name on the elevator sinage for the guests. The staff for our dinner were very accommodating, friendly, respectful, and had great customer service! I will forever be grateful for such a memorable moment! We had 3 course meals and they took our orders with no issues and they even gave us warm milk for the baby! Great service!

I made a lunch reservation for 14 people to celebrate my daughter's high school graduation and we all had a wonderful experience. When we arrived, despite our group being so large, we were able to choose indoor or outdoor seating. We chose to eat on the patio which has gorgeous views of the Potomac. Our head waiter, George, immediately and warmly greeted us and introduced us to the other waitstaff that would be serving our table. George is amazing! He answered all of our questions and our food was brought out in a timely manner. I ordered a chicken salad sandwich which doesn't sound sexy but it was perhaps the best chicken salad sandwich I've ever had. Everyone else at our table also enjoyed their food from the drinks and appetizers to the desserts. I had a hard time deciding where to go to celebrate my daughter's graduation but I don't think I could have picked a better place and location. Thanks to everyone at Sequoia's for helping to make my daughter’s day even more special!
