Grace's Mandarin

The restaurant is absolutely beautiful inside and has a beautiful outside view. The service was phenomenal and our food was delicious. Our server was Wai Yan and he was awesome

The decor is stunning! There is so much to look at and everything is well placed and thought out. Their food was really great too. They also give you infused water, which is cold and refreshing, it had citrus and I think mint. Our server Chris did a great job; we told him it was our first time, and I asked if he could pick out my dish, which he did (Singapore noodles). I know that’s a lot of pressure lol my dish was delicious! Definitely come here the next time you’re in town!

Great experience excellent table with a view of the harbor. Food is perfect cooked to perfection with the best ingredients and spices

Grace’s Mandarin is a true gem at National Harbor, offering an unforgettable dining experience that perfectly blends ambiance, flavor, and service. From the moment you step inside, you’re transported into an atmosphere of elegance—think dim lighting, sleek decor, and a stunning multi-story Buddha statue that adds to the restaurant’s sophisticated yet calming vibe. The floor-to-ceiling windows provide breathtaking waterfront views, making it an ideal spot for both romantic dinners and special gatherings. Highly recommended!

My partner and I decided here for our date and I'm so glad we did. The most notable thing was the beautiful decor, the layout of tables and the harbor view on the second floor. From the food and the service, everything was immaculate and eye catching. Food was so tasty we cant wait to come back soon!

Grace’s Mandarin is a perfect blend of traditional and contemporary Asian cuisine. Each table had a pitcher of fresh water with mint, lemon, and limes and was a refreshing start to cleanse the palate. After seating, the server provided the table with hot towels to cleanse our hands before we started our meal (see video). My favorite appetizer was the crab rangoon though it does not come with a dipping sauce while the other small plates we ordered did. The fish nuggets were also good, but the cocktail type sauce they were served with didn’t pair well. I wish I had a bottle of hot sauce in my purse. The calamari was just ok; I’ve had much better in other not so great places. Finally, the X.O cognac sauce (Remy Martin) added to rice was subtle, but a pleasant twist. Overall, the ambiance was nice, service was timely, and the food was served steaming hot and full of flavor. I’d definitely go back for another round ... or two.

An upscale Asian fusion restaurant in the national harbour area. Definitely one of the best. The internal decor was amazing with bold oriental influence. Staff was great and attentive. They were accommodating as well when we asked for some fresh cut chilli. The atmosphere was lively and we saw families dining out over Sunday dinner, birthday celebrations and gathering happening. If you are in the area, it's definitely a place to go to.

Delicious sushi! From the infused water and jasmine tea to the fried gyoza and sushi rolls, I was extremely pleased with lunch. The soy sauce was extremely watery and lacked any flavor—normally I wouldn’t care, but when a 5 piece sushi roll is 20 (not a specialty roll either), it matters a little bit more lol! I wouldn’t care definitely go again and it’s conveniently located right next to the Gaylord.
