This restaurant offers a charming old world experience in the heart of Chevy Chase and is a venerable neighborhood staple. I eat there periodically and the food is always solidly good with excellent service.

La Ferme has been an institution for many years, and it still is, for good and bad. Classic French cooking, ably executed, and a quiet atmosphere with a largely senior clientele. It feels very old-fashioned, and the menu has been the same for a long time. It’s expensive but features standards like escargots and dessert soufflés. The service is efficient but not particularly friendly. You have to drive to get there, but there is adequate on-site parking.

Had a beautiful brunch experience today and as usual, the food and service were lovely.
The mushroom soup was especially good. The meal and the atmosphere make it a favorite brunch spot. Do not miss the lovely desserts. Hard to choose my favorite.

Walked in and was greeted by a strong mildew-like smell. The place feels outdated and needs a refresh. Staff were very friendly, but the food was just okay—my beef dish came out barely warm. Overall, it tries to be French fine dining on a budget but misses the mark. A brunch buffet might suit them better so food stays hot.

Haven't been back here in 20years. Enjoyed the experience. Allegedly needed reservations for Saturday night in September but saw plenty of empty tables when we arrived at 8pm. None of which filled up while we were there.
The service was decent, food was on point tonight. I enjoyed the rabbit mushroom terrine and the seared duck breast (both pictured).
Good wine selection and even the dessert, pumpkin bread pudding, was good.
When we were last here all those years ago, we had poor service, mediocre food and the place had seen better days.
After this visit, we will return and won't wait 20years to do it.

My friend and I had such an amazing experience here! The service was incredible everyone was so friendly, but our waiter especially stood out. We both have several food allergies, and he went above and beyond to make sure we were safe, checking everything with the chef before confirming our choices. That gave us so much peace of mind. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was relaxing, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better time. The best part was how comfortable we felt dining here with our allergies. Highly recommend!

Came here to celebrate my husband birthday after some recommendation.
.The food was very basic nothing much to stand out, need improvement on creme brûlée wich it was very thick on the taste.
But we do appreciate the good service from the staff and the antique ambience.z
An absolute gem. We had delicious cocktails before being seated and then a truly magnificent meal. Absolutely recommend and will be going back to sample more of the menu.
I was here for a wedding reception, so my experience might be a little different. However, others there had been going to this place for 30 years, so I think it is as good as I experienced. I tried the cheese ravioli appetizer, beef tips and the salmon entrees, and peach melba and the mousse cake for dessert. All were wonderfully done! And inside, the place has a very strong French country feel that I really appreciated.
First time here and my husband and I got to enjoy it for my cousin's wedding. Will definitely visit for a date day.
