Fabulous food- so inventive and surprising but also delicious. Service was outstanding. Winner.

Very good experience overall. The decor and service were wonderful. The food and drinks were very good. It was very difficult to hear the descriptions from the servers, which took away from the experience. We did the 4-course tasting menu which was perfect. The foie gras PB&J and the crudo were the highlights. I'd like to go back and sit at the bar. It seemed trendy and popular without trying too hard.

Really enjoyed our meal at Bresca. The food and drinks were very good. The wine pairing was a great value to go with our 4-course dinner. We hope to come back the next time we are in DC.

Food was amazing as well as the service. We were the 1st diners and for some reason they sat us in the middle of the DR instead of at one of the more cozy spots and gave us a lame response. I do not recommend the $45 wine pairing with the 3 course meal. Fine dining with loud rap music does not create the ambiance one would expect!

My husband and I came here for our anniversary for the Gastronomy at the Bar experience. We wanted to do something very different than what we can do with a two-year-old in tow! We were greeted with champagne glasses to celebrate our marriage. What proceeded was five courses of immaculately prepared food, together with the most unusual and delicious drinks prepared right in front of us. These drinks pulled on ingredients from the menu - such unique flavoring, that was beautifully explained to us plebes.  we loved every second of it.

We celebrated my daughters 30th birthday at Bresca. They made us feel like we the only party around :) Food and service was wonderful!

Noise level is too loud to carry on a conversation. Duck, while delicious, especially the sauce, consisted of one slice only. I had to ask where was the foie gras (inside a sausage that tasted like a hot dog). Portions are very small, but well presented. Two waiters recommended different red wines from among only four by the glass to go with the duck.

Just fantastic food and service! Every staff member was knowledgeable friendly and made for a relaxing evening. The Som was very knowledgeable and gave great insight into the wine pairing selections.
Sydney
Incredible service and food, as always. Took a friend who had never had Michelin star and she loved it.

I went during restaurant week. We were not informed of “up” charges The cut of meat was “waygu” but awful but there were some high points. The appetizers were interesting and tasty. The service was amazing
The food was fantastic. We did the restaurant week menu with the cheese and crackers and crab sampler to start. Then the cucumber and yogurt salad, and for our main entrée, we did the lamb. It was so good and then for dessert they had the peaches cheesecake, and it was delicious. The one thing, though was the service at the beginning of our meal was great, but by the end, it wasn't as consistent because the place got busier, which is understandable, but hopefully the miscommunication will be fixed next time we go.

The quality of the food had dropped from a few months ago. Many items that were previously included as part of the menu now had an extra charge (e.g. bread). The food was good, but nothing special and in my opinion did not justify the cost. Some flavor combinations did not quite go well together, while other dishes lacked seasoning. The presentation was thoughtful. I will not be going back.

Very loud experience, too loud. Steak a little too undercooked for 1 guest. Perfect for the other
Kristen
Wonderful experience doing the restaurant week menu with some upgrades. My first time here and would absolutely be back. Favorites worth mentioning were the peanut butter and jelly snack bites (amazing!!) and the lamb! They even substituted some items for my pregnancy. High recommend!
