Bridget Gael: LOVE this spot- great ambiance, impeccable service & great food- we loved the heirloom tomatoes, char, and sticky pudding cake. Superb wine list- Mark their sommelier is a great guide
Julia Park: Chicken is very juicy, soft, delicious. Octopus - soft and perfectly seasoned. We had tuna appetizer, good but have tasted elsewhere as nice… service was fantastic. Lovely space - bar tender 100/100!
Gonzalo: Carefully crafted menu. Delicious sea bass and rabbit. Excellent desert menu. Of note, the staff’s attention to detail.

Ben R: Awesome new addition to the neighborhood. Recommended: brandade fritters, heirloom tomato bruschetta, cacio e pepe pasta (al dente perfection). Pizzas at neighboring tables looked great too.
Ardvaark: For brunch, try the baked eggs. They come in a scalding hot baking pan filled with meaty Bolognese sauce and two perfectly cooked eggs. You won't regret it. 🍅🍖🍳👍
Amy Cummings: Get the cacio e pepe. I know it’s simple, but it’s delicious.

Washingtonian Magazine: What to get: Tuna-topped crostini; burrata with heirloom tomatoes and basil; meatballs with a sunny-side-up egg; pappardelle with ragu of Scottish hare; lasagna with morels and truffles.
IS KLE: Could be the best Italian restaurant in DC. Fresh fish, salads, homemade pasta and desserts all delish. And the service is top notch.
Lex: Hint: This place is not on Pennsylvania.

Maggie MacG: The burger here is sooo good (comes with fries) and is very shareable. The service here is excellent, much much better than the Top of the Gate.
Amber Shi: The duck breast is very impressive. Get it in medium. The cocktail called Strawberry is good too if you like gin.
Raakin Roll: The Milkshake (consisting of vanilla, chocolate, peanut butter) and the salmon is best done here

Bobby: Can’t go wrong with any of the guacamole options. The seafood enchiladas and empanadas were solid too.
April Armstrong: The CrabCake Tostada, Grilled Mushroom Tacos, and Wood Grilled chicken were delicious 😋
Malu Tirzell: Try the ceviche, mushroom tacos. The corn cake for dessert is amazing.
Rita Lassiter: Best dessert is the butter cake. HANDS DOWN! The buttery, sweet, crunchy outer layer combined with the soft cake and butter pecan ice cream? Simply heaven...
Char: Great upstairs bar, VERY awesome waitstaff and bartenders!! Will return!
Lindsay D.: Great for a working lunch. The service is excellent. Must try the lobster bisque and lobster roll - some of the best I've had outside of New England.

Washington Post: Soup bowls tend to return to the kitchen licked clean. Smoked tomato soup arrives w/ a slender crouton, dappled with a vivid red pepper puree. Pureed cauliflower whispers of garlic, fennel and bacon. Read more.
Alex O.: Great terrace for breakfast, lunch & dinner...
Alex O.: Great a la carte Brunch every Saturday & Sunday

Andrea Ferreyros: The brekkie was delicious (half avocado toast half granola bowl). We also ordered the porridge which was good, nothing too special about it. Can’t wait to go back to try more items from the menu!
Sean Howell: The avocado mash is from frozen and artificial. This place is the mcdonalds of avocado toast
Jon Moore: Hit and miss service, sparse food options, coffee just OK ☕️

Hailey Nguyen: Lovely dining room, love the sea bass and the lamb. Their pasta dishes are also on point. Great for dates!
Steve Roemerman: Yes ..... There are a lot of old people here. We can afford it!
Washingtonian Magazine: With its cobblestone foyer, wood-paneled dining rooms, and formal service, this Georgetown restaurant is a lovely throwback. What to get: Tagliatelle with clams and bacon & rockfish with lobster farro
