Breakfast and brunch was wonderful thanks to Sandra and Nato. They were so kind and welcoming, the kind of people who make you feel at home the moment you sit down. They paid attention to every detail, kept our coffee warm, our water full, and made sure everything was just right. Their warmth and smiles truly made the morning feel special.

Food was AMAZING, service was top notch and our service was on top of it, clearing dishes and filling up up drinks as needed

Great food, atmosphere and service! Enjoyed ourselves very much. Came to celebrate a birthday and it was an excellent choice of venue.

The restaurant has one of the best views in DC. Staff members displayed impeccable service.

Thanks to my daughter's kindness and consideration, I was able to spend my daughter's birthday with happy memories. Thank you.

Food was beautifully crafted and elegant without being rich and fussy. My daughter said the duck was the best she'd had. Prices reasonable for the qualify food - drinks a bit pricey good. Service exceptional and ambiance lovely. Will go back

My experience was 10/10! I enjoyed everything about this restaurant! This customer service was impeccable, not just from our waiter, but the the entire team was attentive and friendly. I highly recommend the soft crab sandwich.

Stopped by Estuary after a partner reception for a drink and some light snacks, and I’m glad I did. It’s a beautiful space with a great atmosphere. It's perfect for a late night drink or two with friends. The bar itself is really lovely, and the whole vibe makes it an easy spot to have fun with. I only tried drinks and a few small bites this time but I definitely plan to come back for dinner. This could definitely be a regular stop.

Absolutely gorgeous restaurant set in the heart of the Conrad Hotel. Super attentive service complimented the well presented and delicious food. The chicken was cooked to perfection and roasted garlic and potatoes were a perfect accompaniment. The off-menu date and fig rolls were very well done and the compound butter that came with worked in tandem. Excellent selection of drinks as well, with the opportunity to taste when ordering by the glass - rare in my experience.
It is pricy, but the quality of the food, service, and location matches the price and was faultless.
Pinned for future return.

Business dinner. Our experience was delightful. Pea soup, crab cakes, tomato salad, duke breast were all cooked to perfection and the wait staff was attentive and pleasant. Really delicious meal.
We happened to come across this restaurant through OpenTable which indicated that it was award winning. However, we're not sure for what dishes. The Mid Atlantic Tile Fish is strangely not labeled as silver (Blueline Tilefish), would've been even better to get golden and a larger piece. The fish skin was overly salted but otherwise balanced dish. Skip the softshell crab, quite a letdown. Not crispy enough and just a single crab. The grilled green onions were also burned. The pepper sauce should be indicated as spicy and was much like Tabasco sauce.
The service was polite but needed more staff. The atmosphere was quiet, since the restaurant was pretty empty.

Oh boy, this is my new favorite place to fine dine. Estuary has the ambiance that makes you think you boarded a plane to travel for 4-5 hours, yet it is right in the heart of DC. The food presentation is just delectable, looks fantastic! Portion sizes were more than ample. I was able to have my business meeting there because it was quiet and very private. The series was the best - can't say enough about the woman from France who helped us. I will be back! Thank you for a lovely evening.

We had a fabulous brunch experience at Estuary. We went to celebrate my daughter's 16th birthday after our stay during the weekend. They treated her like royalty, the staff and food was amazing. The views were spectacular and I highly recommend the restaurant, you won't be disappointed.

We visited Estuary in DC for Restaurant Week and were completely blown away. We ordered the 3-course prix fixe menu, and every single dish was to die for. Thoughtfully plated, perfectly balanced flavors, and creative from start to finish. This meal reminded us why we love fine dining.The service was just as impressive as the food: attentive, warm, and well-paced without feeling rushed. The ambiance is modern yet relaxed, with a beautiful view that adds to the experience without overpowering it. Restaurant Week menus can sometimes feel scaled down, but not here. Estuary delivered a full experience and then some. Highly recommend, and we'll absolutely be returning soon.

Fantastic service and food. Menu prices are on the higher side, but totally worth it for the quality and atmosphere. The squid ink pasta and crab cakes are to die for. Highly recommend for a date night
