Excellent breakfast…had a great American Breakfast: eggs over medium, breakfast potatoes, bacon and toast – all for a very reasonable price – $14.95. They serve breakfast until 10:00 am. Rather quiet location compared to other parts of the airport nearer to the gates.

The food is quite good. The calamari was fresh and tender, and the salad had a lot of fresh greens. A great option if you want a proper meal in DCA’s terminal 2.

It’s a good place to relax before a flight. I sat at the bar and had the calamari and a beer. The service was fast but not pushy. The calamari was delicious and beer was cold. Great spot to recharge before your next leg of travel.

Greeted by a wonderful kind waitress. Always pleasant , smiling and took pride in her job. Ordered clam chowda. Been coming here 40 years. It’s as good as it was any time before. Quite frankly, the best I’ve had evah ! Had a grilled blackened shrimp over Caesar salad. Awesome

Update July 2023: Add the Crabcake Sandwich as another delicious option with loads of lump crab meat and a side of tasty coleslaw. I subbed the fries for steamed broccoli.

Great views of the airport and DC. Food is always top notch, love the Maryland cream of crab soup! Service is efficient and will give yo ample time to enjoy your meal before your flight. I wish the other Legal Foods were still open, I was sad when the China Town location closed

I had such a lovely lunch at the Legal Sea Foods here at the DCA airport. Albin and Jesse provided excellent, quick, friendly, and professional service. The wine was well portioned and tasty, the clam chowder was rich and generous although a bit cooler than I would have liked. I had a great time chatting with staff and guests and will be back next time I am at the airport! Thanks again Jesse for being so nice.
