Everything about the Willard is fabulous. We love their restaurants, the hotel, the round robin bar. You can't go wrong with any of it.

It was a beautiful Spring day, so we sat outside during our lunch. They have large umbrellas and comfortable seating. There were four in our group; each person enjoyed their meal and dessert. I recommend Cafe Du Parc!

It was too loud, there are so many children in the morning, they made noises and played with cutleries... We couldn't enjoy the breakfast in peace and quiet

The place looks amazing but the food is terrible. Like the worst breakfast ever terrible... and I had some pretty bad stuff throughout my life. Coffee was also pretty bad. Shameful for such a nice place and the price you pay. Shame shame shame

Disappointed that I was placed in a back room for dining. Wait staff was slow and inattentive. No salt and pepper on table. No sweetners. He never followed up during meal. Very disappointed in my experience. Not the 5 star experience I was expecting.

Had amazing coffee, and our server was very kind to my husband, daughter and I! Great service and food what more can you ask for.

This intimate French restaurants features a basic menu of classics. The grilled octopus & cioppino are spectacular. The French onion soup is bland and the rissotto is beautiful though mildly flavored. The coctail and mocktail menu are fun and fabulous. The wine list is not notable. This beautifully decorated space in one of DC's historic and classic spaces is NOT for an intimate dinner. The acoustics make it near impossible to hear your dining companion(s) over the other diners also experiencing the same intense level of noisiness. Some of the staff was extremely kind and attentive, and others more nonchalant. Overall - the cost to experience value was disappointing.

Great spot for Sunday brunch. We had the cheese plate to start and then both meals were excellent.

Service was superb. I ordered the special, a grilled Brazino. Good, the sauce was wonderful, made me wish for a bit more. My husband's order of steak frites was a bit underwhelming, steak not the best however, wine service was good.

No service at all. Table was dirty, you can get very fancy cake but you get it in a paper box together with flimsy plastic cutlery. Very expensive.

The only thing that saves this restaurant is the nice ambiance and outdoor seating. Other than that the food is mediocre, the service hit and miss, and the prices don't reflect what you get. I don't recommend this place.

If you're looking for an al fresco dinner option in D.C. this is the place for you! Steps from the White House, in a park-like nook, the ambience is perfect. The service and food were fantastic and I'd definitely return.

The food is very delicious, but the service was not good. The waiting times for an waiter have sometimes been more then 15 minutes. in general the waiters did not seem to be happy with their job.

We have nothing to complain about but can't say that it quite met our expectations. It is an adequate place to grab a bite, but considering the price and the type of restaurant, we had higher expectations when it came to the taste of the food and presentation. If I had to describe it, food was average, nothing special that would make it stand out, especially for the price.

Service, service, and service ... the lack thereof, that is. The nice ambiance of the main dining area upstairs won't matter if the service sucks. Super slow service with a lack of attention & organization. Even if you're staying in this hotel or an IHG Platinum member, you won't get an ounce of attention from their chaotic staff and non-existent manager. They're not even busy, just disorganized. We walked out after 15 minutes of waiting. You're better off with the restaurants around the corner.
