Dovetail Bar & Restaurant

Great dinner. The 3 course $50 special is a nice value for good quality food. Nice ambiance and good service.

It was a last-minute reservation. What a great little hidden gem. Our server was adorable and attentive. Everyone loved what they had. We will definitely be back when we are in town next. 

Great food, great location, and great service! Our server Hasina was wonderful. Will definitely be returning.

We had a beautiful experience returning to Dovetail at the Viceroy DC. Hasina was attentive, engaging and made our anniversary dinner that much more memorable. As we reminisced about our nuptials it was Hasina and all of the staff who added that extra touch to our dining experience.

Amazing experience here for dinner. We sat outside on the heated patio and did the 4 course dinner with wine pairing. Amazing experience and service was 10/10. For the amazing price, I really didn't expect everything so delicious. Friendly and speedy service. 10/10. We can't wait to come back!

Our waitress, Hasina, was absolutely wonderful! She continuously checked in to make sure we were okay and that everything was just right. She paid close attention to our orders to ensure accuracy and went above and beyond with her warm personality and the brightest smile. She truly made our dining experience the best, and we are so grateful for her excellent service. Highly recommend asking for Hasina when you visit!

Our server William provided just the right level of attentiveness and was very personable and professional. All in all it was a very happy evening and the food and wine were amazing! Dovetail is now one of my favorite DC restaurants.

10/10 recommend! I had the 4-course restaurant week menu and was so impressed, it was a GREAT deal. Bread and butter, 5 oysters, a perfectly cooked filet, Brussel sprouts and a slice of chocolate cake all for $55. Also, the “so long, London” was one of the best cocktails I’ve ever had. The service was so friendly and attentive, shoutout to my server William who did a great job! Every employee was extremely welcoming and made the experience memorable. They even have an adorable dog menu and brought my pup a water bowl and pup cup. I’ll definitely be back.

The staff set a nice table for ten in the back which felt nicely private. Service and food was excellent as were the cocktails. Our server, Deniz, did an outstanding job and should be commended!

We stayed at the hotel. One morning we went for brunch. We ordered the omelette and chicken and waffle. Food was delicious, but I would definitely go back for the chicken and waffle. The chicken was fry to perfection and very juicy/flavorful!
We also had drinks almost every night we were there. Mocktails were great, old fashioned and martini were delicious. It was nice to sit by the fire in the evening. It really creates a nice vibe!

We stayed at the viceroy hotel, and originally only went to dovetail to use a credit. We were pleasantly surprised by both the food and service. So much so, that we went back for a happy hour before we left. The food is slightly above average, and it is a great option for American fare.

I came here on a Thursday night with about eight of my coworkers. The place wasn’t busy at all. Our waiter, a very kind Italian man, provided great service. The atmosphere is lovely.

I’m deducting a star because the service was incredibly slow. I don’t blame our server, but whatever other factors were at play really dragged out the process.

I ordered the roast beef and swapped the mashed potatoes for mac and cheese—it was tasty. The Brussels sprouts were good, and the Alchemist drink was lovely. I’d come back for a date night, but not if I’m starving!

We had a fantastic time at Dovetail for Valentine’s Day. We decided to do the special prix fixe menu. Every dish was delicious, and the French wine pairings were a perfect match. Our server, Aya, was amazing! She was friendly, attentive, and really made the night special. It’s such a nice cozy restaurant. We will definitely be back!
