I had a delightful dinner at The National last week! The atmosphere was cozy yet upscale, perfect for a lovely evening out. We began with Old Fashioneds and shared a delightful pizzette that set the perfect tone. For the main, I chose their hangar steak, which was cooked to perfection, while my companion enjoyed the tautog. Don’t skip dessert - those Portuguese custard tarts were a sweet ending! Friendly service and a stellar drink selection make this place worth revisiting. 🍷
