Personal and attentive service. Excellent choice of foods and wines. A perfect location to celebrate a friend's birthday.

Our server Tai was world class. The food is excellent and the service she provides is better. Thanks for a perfect evening.

Nothing but a great dinning experience from ambiance to food quality. Service was excellent! Our wait staff was extremely knowledgeable about every dish! I would highly recommend you experience this restaurant!
Lynn
Not a great value for the price; wait staff too intrusive and "folksy" or nowhere to be seen; made it feel more like a diner than an upscale dining establishment; expected better preparation and ingredients for the price point; lighting could have been lower; couldn't wait to get out of there

We enjoyed a fabulous meal! My daughter's birthday was recognized from our amazing server, to the Happy Birthday note on the menu, to the special birthday treats at dessert. We enjoyed every second of a special day and dinner!

I 've been going to the ‘89 since I was a freshman at Georgetown in 1976. It continues to amaze me with its consistency and quality. I know there are a lot of wonderful options in DC, but you can never go wrong at the ‘89.

Overall the food quality was very good including some items not found at many restaurants like venison and Dover sole. Service was friendly and attentive. Ambiance was nice and relatively quiet, but the restaurant is not a value play.

We were very glad we chose this spot for a date night last week. We had amazing service from Ryan, delicious drinks and memorable food. We will be back!
We hadn't been to 1789 in many years. We no longer live in the area. It is still elegant & as well done as we remember! Nina, the bartender was lovely & attentive as well as was our server (I don't remember her name). Food was excellent! TY!

The food and service are always top notch! 1789 is our go-to restaurant for a special meal in Georgetown.

1789 delivered for our family during Parents Weekend at Georgetown seamlessly. We were able to get a reservation at 5:30-perferct for us-and we were impressed throughout. We were greeted warmly, and promptly seated next to the wood burning fireplace. My wife and daughter were amazed at the service provided by every one of the team that seemed to support each other naturally and enthusiastically. From the initial house made bread, through appetizers, main course, and dessert...we were awed by the excellent taste and presentation of everything. Most amazing to us was how comfortable the space felt...not an inkling of pretentiousness...which can exist in top flight restaurants. We have thanked our friends who recommended 1789, and will recommend 1789 to anyone visiting Georgetown in the future.
