  Clarity should be renamed Insanity. Menu is off the charts. Drinks are the best in DMV. My fiancé' and I split an app and got our own entrees. Beware, if you bring home leftovers (Pork Chop), you will not enjoy them. Someone else will. Play it safe, bring it to work. If Foie Gras and Wagyu had a baby, it would be this insane Pork Chop. Sit at the counter to see the chefs in action. Such attention to detail.

  This is one of the most disappointing expereinces I've had in a long time, where reality fell far too short of expectations. I've had this place on my wishlist for some time and finally made a reservation for a friends' outing. You'd expect more from a pricey place like this, but the cons outwighed the pros. Pros: - Easy parking. That's it! Cons: - The overall vibe is a $ reastaurant rather than a $$ as advertise. I dressed up thinking it's a fine dining experience, but it was far from it. - It gets extremely cold in the small private dining room at the back of the restaurant. When I looked up to see where that cold drift is coming from, I saw that the vent right above me had collected dust and black stains around it. I was grossed out. - Slow service and the food took forever to arrive. - Very pricey for the portions. - Mediocre quality. Three out of the four of us reported 'meh' experience with the various dishes ordered. I had the hanger steak. The jus had a bitter after taste. - They somehow overdid it with the salt in everything. I just couldn't stomach the amount of salt in every bite I took. I ended up paying $53 for a mediocre steak with a tiny amount of mushroom and rapini, all while freezing my brains off. There is no 'clarity' as to why they charge that much or conisder the place upscale. Not going back. Sorry.

  I don’t know what’s happened but the bolognese was almost not worth eating - incredibly disappointed. I think I’ve had better at chain restaurants.

  Service was great. attentive and helpful waitstaff. Restaurant was not loud, though it wasnt full either. essentially all of the food was startlingly bland. additional salt helped for most of it, but not all. The burrata appetizer and the bolognese in particular came out tasting really under seasoned, both in salinity and acidity. Porkchop was cooked very nicely, underdone in a good way with a well seasoned sauce. I hope that this was just an off night or something.

  Food and service were excellent. I had the tasting menu with wine pairings and thoroughly enjoyed every course. My four dinner companions also enjoyed their selections. Pacing of the meal was perfect from my perspective but slow for my companions given my multiple courses. I would recommend everyone at a table get or share a tasting menu to avoid that issue.
