We ate vegetarian and everything was excellent. I can recommend the brussel sprouts, tortilla española, crispy potatoes, coliflor, golden beets, fried shishitos, and risotto. I almost forgot to mention the interesting drink menu and the best flan I’ve ever had. Service was great too. Go with a group so you can try everything!“

The food is absolutely phenomenal, the service attentive and helpful (our server made good suggestions as it was our first visit). My particular favorite was the labneh. We liked it so much came back a second time to enjoy their happy hour - the HR burger was really great as was the app trio.“

“Excellent restaurant from all angles, a new DC/ Georgetown favorite.

The decor brightened an otherwise gloomy and stormy day. The service was efficient and friendly. Menu labeled for dietary restrictions and can ask server for help. The food (brunch prix fixe with burrata (no bread) and steak eggs) had the right flavors to waken the palate and satisfy the soul and the stomach. Kudos to the right amount of salt on each dish to highlight all the deliciousness. Cantaloupe to Spain was a balanced cocktail with unique flavors and smooth to drink.

Overall a memorable brunch experience and I'll be recommending to friends in and out of DC. Look forward to coming back.“

“Hidden gem, although has been around forever! Beautiful restaurant, delicious food, attentive service. Spanish fine dining tucked away on 18th St NW just south of I St. I'd been wanting to try it, but was put off a little by high prices and white tablecloths. Don't worry, the vibe inside is more laid back than it looks, and the prices fairly reasonable. Happy Hour especially great way to try the cuisine - all delicious! After a few HH apps, we scaled back our ambitions and shared paella and desserts - left feeling very stuffed, happily so. Sangria and cocktails nice too. Very pretty; very nice staff. Definitely will return and recommend : )“

“Xiquet by Danny Lledo has worked very hard to earn its Michelin standing, and it shows in every aspect of the meal. Each dish is carefully crafted to give you an equally beautiful and delicious sample of a different Spanish cuisine.

First, the presentation of each dish. You receive a cardstock card with every single entree, giving you an overview of the dish, the primary ingredients, a backstory for why it matters to the chef. It is an awesome way to enhance the dining experience and give each small element stand out even more. There is also a sentimental element with some of the them, making it feel like an invitation into the upbringing of the genius who put all the food together.

To make the whole process even more engaging, each of the plates is so meticulously crafted that they feel like art. I sat and admired most of the dishes that crossed my path just to appreciate how intricately they were put together and repurposed otherwise simple ingredients. It’s truly entertaining to see new variations on dishes you think you know, and with such beauty.

Things are made all the more enjoyable by the constant clash between a traditional tapa and the inventive nature of the chef, giving you a blend of new flavors and the classic taste you expect from Spanish cuisine. Each dish just puts a smile on your face and makes you appreciate the finer flavors in life. It’s clear that all the ingredients are top of the line im quality, and carefully curated.

Finally, the service and actual dining experience. The upper area is in a beautiful room with a great view on a glass encased kitchen. It is very welcoming and super entertaining to see the chefs hard at work in the kitchen to see how everything comes together. The service was fantastic as well, with super knowledgable and friendly wait staff. I really appreciated how much they were just as excited for their customers to enjoy the meals as I was.

Overall, Xiquet is an incredible dining experience that is well deserving of its designation. I would save this one for a special occasion, as it definitely hurts the bank, but you will surely have an unforgettable dinner. Thanks to Danny for an awesome night.“
