Oh, and when I got back to the hotel, I found an incredible burger in a box that I carried back to the hotel without opening. That was breakfast! Will be back.“
“Our server, Frank was incredibly welcoming and kind. We had some lovely conversation with him throughout the meal and enjoyed the service, courses, and the overall atmosphere. Each course was paired well with Audrey's Wine pairing and the dishes were stunning.“
“The entire experience was amazing - it was like front row seats at the theater but even better because of the interactivity. The chefs were talented and fun, the environment was comfortable and intimate, the food was inventive and delicious, the presentation was artistic, and the service was impeccable. Thank you for such a memorable evening!“
“We dropped in for a late lunch and were fortunate to get a table (reservations strongly recommended.) Absolutely perfect! I had the Seared Salmon with Mediterranean Couscous, Asparagus and Heirloom Tomatoes. My wife had Roasted Chicken with Mushroom Parmesan Risotto. Everything was cooked to perfection. Service was exemplary—Manuel took great care of us and presented his business card so that we could ask for him next time we visit.“
“I had my husband's 60th birthday here, and it was fantastic from Lauren helping me plan the event, to the wait staff, the bartender, and the beautiful fireplace room - every detail was awesome!! If you are vegan, you definitely want to come for the vegan tasting menu!!“

“Behind the modest exterior, an immersive culinary journey awaits! Every foodie traveler enjoys 'the find' - a place you don't expect but allows you to join the curated journey of an exceptional chef and his team. Xiquet is one of DC's few true finds, tucked away in a small neighborhood but standing tall in the burgeoning DC dining scene. It is one of those rare places in an otherwise hypertensive town where time becomes ephemeral, and you can truly give in to enjoying artistry for its own sake and within its own parameters.Since Chef Danny changes his menu constantly, based on inspiration and availability of high quality ingredients, check their site for the latest, and definitely allow them to pair their wines, ports, vermouths, etc. to achieve 'peak flavour'.Our experience, a special occasion for my wife and me, was - to use one word - blissful! And equally importantly, relaxed - as visits to special places like Xiquet and its Michelin-starred siblings like Rose's Luxury, Jaunt and Inn at Little Washington should be.Make the time, take the time, and enjoy the journey!“
“What a beautiful experience. The atmosphere was amazing and the food was nice and seasoned. We had the whole free range chicken. Too die for. Definitely split this with two people because it’s quite the meal. The chicken pannise was so unique. So flavorful. Amazing. I’ll definitely be back. PS. The music was wonderful. Soulful. Loved it.“
“Located next to the Kennedy Center. I reserved a table before my arrival. I ordered a kale salad, salmon and dessert. All were delicious. Great selection of wines, but I ordered a cocktail and bottled water. Service was excellent. The restaurant atmosphere was moderate upscale (business casual) and beautifully decorated. They also have burgers and fries on the menu.“
“Lovely and flattering service! The place presents a high-end cruise for adults sort of atmosphere. Watch out for dessert when a serving is said to be for multiple people - they aren't lying! Food was excellent and they have quite a few aged drinks for the connessioers.“
“Loud, yes. But it is okay. A party atmosphere. You sit close to others, but everyone talking fully mitigates that. Fun atmosphere. Not for a quiet romantic dinner, yet the digs and accroutrements are top notch. Place is popular for 3-6 drinks with dinner!“
“The foie gras was excellent, the scallops were succulent, the lobster bisque was excellent, the Chilean sea bass was mouthwatering and the steak was superb! LK and our entire wait staff provided tier 1 service! Exceptional! How can I forget the craft cocktails…thoroughly enjoyed The Mistletoe!“
“Had dinner before the Oh He Dead concert on Saturday December 17, 2022. We arrived a little before our seating and immediately were greeted and taken to our spots. Ian was outstanding! He was attentive, descriptive and helped create a good experience. Dan, our bartender, was magnificent. He created delectable cocktails and we also chatted along the way (we had bar seats which I highly recommend). This was very reasonably priced, we left very filled and happy. I want to give the highest possible compliments to Ian and Dan. The entire experience was perfect, largely because of the great food, but they took the experience well beyond a 1 star evening!“
