“Superlative tasting menu, top notch wine parings, outstanding service, from a staff that outnumbers the clientele, what’s not to like? Yes it’s small, so leave the soccer team meetup for the pizza place. For Lutece, bring your favorite couple or 1 or 2 very special friends“

The assistant manager, Destynee, also came by our table to say hello and to make sure we were having a good experience. The ambiance is also very nice. We highly recommend Bistro Du Jour.“

“Stopped by after seeing high reviews. The atmosphere of the place is really nice. There’s quiet spaces to study. There’s cute little gifts you can purchase. However, the pistachio chocolate croissant I tried wasn’t good. I don’t like the taste of pistachio paste. Also it wasn’t fresh.“

“We cannot speak highly enough in words about how great our experience was at Mosaic for our 50th Anniversary brunch with almost 30 of our family and friends yesterday. The food, atmosphere and service were impeccable - no exaggeration. The menu provided a large variety of choices and the servers were so pleasant and efficient. Several of our guests made the same kind of comments to us about their experience without even asking them. Thank you Enrique, Armando and Staff.“

“A breakfast restaurant can provide a comfortable setting for traditional morning meals, coffee, sandwiches, and other daytime options. A varied menu allows different preferences to be accommodated, while efficient service is especially important during busy morning hours. Compared with a quick grab-and-go option, a full breakfast restaurant provides a more relaxed dining environment. Fresh preparation, reasonable portions, and a comfortable atmosphere all contribute to a more enjoyable experience for casual morning dining.“

“One of my favorite locations in DC, great wine selection, the food is pretty good overall (desserts could be improved though), the staff is friendly and efficient.

If you're french and feeling homesick, it is a great place.“

“My fiancée and I came here for our anniversary dinner, and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. They left a sweet little card on our table for the occasion, and every staff member we interacted with was warm and attentive. Special shoutout to Tico, who really made us feel welcomed and went out of his way to make the night special. The food and drinks were great across the board. Our only minor note is that it was a bit hot inside — not sure if it was an A/C issue that night or just where we were seated, but it didn't take away from what was otherwise a great night at Julii. We'll definitely be back.“

“Best mushroom soup ever with all the good wines!“

“Love the NY Minetta and was so excited to try the DC location. It absolutely lived up to the hype. Enjoyed cocktails with my daughter, and the space captures the same charm and energy as the original. The food was outstanding, the staff was warm, attentive, and genuinely hospitable, and the restaurant was impressively busy for a Tuesday night. Don’t miss Lucy Mercer upstairs—it’s a fantastic addition to the experience.“

“Great service and amazing food“

“Cafe Colline is spectacular. I had a toddler with me, was dressed in an adidas track suit, and wanted real food as we waited for someone working in the area. Most of the customers were much better dressed and without a child. Nothing wrong with this, just painting the picture. The staff could not have been nicer and more professional. We were greeted with open arms, sat immediately, and served with absolute professionalism. My food (the fish) was so good I considered licking the plate. They don’t necessarily have a kid’s menu but offered numerous things to make a toddler. I went with the burger and fries. They complimented this with numerous dipping sauces and made the burger to order. The charge was minimal and fair. I always clean up after him as toddlers can be messy and they insisted on letting them clean up (I did it anyway). Restrooms were spotless and the kitchen area you pass was very clean and well organized. It’s a small spot full of big talent. This will be a regular for us. A must dine.“

“Good food, perfect portions, and good cocktails!“

“Last week we enjoyed dinner with Edgar Allen Poe. Okay, so maybe not the man himself- but about as close as I could imagine the experience to be. Dark, decadent, and full of surprise. We got to try their seasonal Poe themed menu, and it’s not just dinner- it nears theatre on a plate.“

“I can't believe that I have lived here for nearly 20 years, walked past this place many times, and just discovered it several weeks ago. WOW! The pastries and, cakes, muffins and croissants are excellent. Their homemade jams are wonderful. Their breads, quite yummy! I love their iced coffee , which has s a very subtle taste of cocoa. And, I am a very picky coffee snob. Service is sometimes a little chaotic, but the staff is super friendly. Weekend mornings are insanely busy- a reflection of how good they are. Amazing, spacious outdoor seating! LOVE this place.“

“Besides delicious pastries, the best part of Boulangerie Christophe is the staff! Super friendly and kind to everyone who walks through the door. The gourmet sandwiches are a huge hit for my 15-year-old son too.“

“Wonderful menu and amazing staff. This restaurant has never disappointed. Love the foie gras and the salmon stuffed with lentils, and the frites.“

“Bistro Provence provides a classic French dining experience, complete with the fantastic food, great sauces, and service that helps guide you in the right direction. We were delighted to be able to choose from a selection of specials that did not disappoint. The Chef has the upmost care for the dishes being as good to look at as they are to eat. Fantastic spot if you’re hankering for a quality fine dining evening.

Unfortunately, i forgot to take pictures of everything so only some things are captured in photos below. Everything was awesome though“

“The food was fresh and delicious! The service was excellent and the owner came around to talk to us! He was so sweet!! He made us feel like family! I will definitely recommend this lovely establishment to my family and friends! I should have taken more photos, but I forgot- it was as sooo goo!!“

“Great space, loved the food.“

“Fantastic food, attentive service, and ambient setting. Such a fantastic spot“

“Great restaurant and service.“

“Really love their pastry and croissant. Cappuccinos are wonderfully made each morning. Frassier white chocolate cake is my favorite. Also tried the new grilled cheese for brunch - excellent.“

“Lovely ambiance! We sat at the bar and had the three course menu. I was gluten free and the staff was so great about accommodating me! The food was very tasty with great flavors and texture. I really enjoyed all the courses. The beef was so tender and flavorful. I thoroughly enjoyed the dessert as well. The only downside was that we had been walking all day through the city and my phone had died. I was hoping they might be able to let me charge my phone briefly so we could get home but they were unable to do allow that.“
