20 Best Bars near Washington

“We have eaten there several times and it is always delicious. We want to give special appreciation to Rachel, your manager, for her special caring and sensitivity to our needs. In today's world, where one struggles, especially if old like we are, to speak to a live human being, when you are able to converse with a person who is actually listening to what you said, this is rare. Add to that delicious fresh food and you have a winner. Tonight we had fresh large shrimps with a most delicious home made cocktail sauce. Fresh crab cakes with a fabulous remoulade, and a chocolate mousse to die for as dessert. We ordered too much and have to save some for tomorrow. We live in town, and are happy to see the names of so many out of town visitors appreciate Chesapeake Tavern.“

“Fantastic couple who owns and operates the restaurant. Love the base red sauce flavor, warning though that it’s on the sweeter side.

Great pizza. Wife loves the penne vodka.

They also make Italian desserts for the holidays for takeout sale.“

“I’ve had dinner there twice, and the food was excellent and the service was great!“

“The pizza is awesome, and the best way to judge is a classic plain first. If the plain is great then you know everything else is too!
The atmosphere is a blast from the past, and you’ll feel like a kid again walking into Enzo’s. Curved red booth seats, the old stained glass lamps above the tables, it’s the exact feel they used to have in the 80/90’s. Service is always solid whether dining in or taking it to go. Highly recommend supporting this classic pizza joint! Don’t change a thing enzos“

“I cannot recommend this venue enough. The property is absolutely breathtaking, and the Silo and Grand Ballroom are stunning. We got married outside near the gazebo and had our reception in the Silo and every guest I talked to mentioned how beautiful the Farmhouse is. The Silo is by far the most unique and beautiful room I’ve been in for an event. Most importantly, everyone kept talking about how delicious the food was! Our guests raved about the cocktail hors d'oeuvres and their dinners.

As a bride, I thoroughly enjoyed working with the event planning team and day-of staff. Gina and Liz were an absolute pleasure working with. They were so helpful in answering my questions, giving advice, and making sure the day was a success. My bridal attendants were fabulous too. Myrna made sure everyone got what they needed in the morning, that everyone was fed, and that the mimosas were flowing. Lorraine was a godsend for the afternoon. She was by my side throughout photos, cocktail hour, and the reception and helped wherever she was needed. I need a Lorraine in my day-to-day life. Finally, Monique was amazing and went out of her way to make sure everyone got what they needed. She also took special care of my grandmother and made sure she got a drink when she needed one and tried every cocktail hour dish.

All in all, the Farmhouse was the perfect place to get married. Several of our guests said that our wedding was the best wedding they have ever been to as the food, the staff, and venue were fantastic. I would choose the Farmhouse over and over again.“

“Some of the friendliest people on the planet!! The food is beyond compare with specials that change daily. Whatever you are hungry for from nachos to the most amazing Prime Rib in the area Deb, Cliff and their kitchen staff always bring their best to you! The entertainment is never disappointing and the bar staff (upstairs or downstairs) are always welcoming and friendly! Whether you are looking for a family friendly place or to get a few drinks with friends The Richmond Hotel is my favorite place to visit!“
