I had such a memorable night a Georgia Brown. Very welcoming place, awesome peach martinis to put our table in the right mood. Very kind staff, extremely generous portion, full of flavor. I was not able to finish the guambo which never happened to me before. Phenomenal, no question on why Georgia Brown is a local institution.

A great take on Southern Comfort food with a more modern twist. Went with a group of 10 people, no one had a bad meal. The food was fantastic. The restaurant knows what it wants to do and executes it very well.

I took a group from the Lehigh Valley in PA for a weekend trip to DC and we ate at Georgia Brown's last Saturday evening. I loved the atmosphere in the music, the decor was great, and the music just suited this place. I had a Kansas City Shuffle for a cocktail which was amazing, and had a delicious entree (Charleston Perlau) which I would recommend to everyone. I also split the fried tomatoes which were excellent. Definitely enjoyed my time there and would definitely go back!

Got charged for 20% gratuity on our bill and then our server asked us to leave more. Really predatory practice and it left a very bad taste afterwards. Please actually pay your workers.Otherwise food was alright but not Michelin guide good.

20% tip is automatically added and it shows. Ages between checks on the table - even with bottles of water for the table, we were continually out. (Server didn’t even have a real name on the check.)Food was good but nothing exceptional. Cornbread was very sweet; perlau taste came from the proteins but rice itself was bland.Would definitely try myriad of other places before coming back here.

A legendary spot for good reasons. Food, service, and atmosphere, along with a central location near the Whitehouse make this a top choice for an (expensive) night out.

We started with tasty cocktails and deviled eggs. The lamb chops were beautifully presented but I should have ordered them medium. His country fried steak was on the small side and the presentation was plain but he enjoyed it. We loved the intimate atmosphere and the vine-like “branches” on the ceiling. Was surprised when our server (who was excellent otherwise) said he’d prefer a cash tip. Nice experience overall.

I loved the ambiance, the staff, the menu, decor & playlist . I have had better cornbread, but it was not extra, so that was fine. I definitely plan to go back for brunch when I visit D.C. again.

What a wonderful Easter brunch! Bottomless mimosa, omelette station, and a prix menu. Live jazz playing. Sax player went through the restaurant playing happy birthday for a patron.Line for omelettes did get kinda long early but then no wait later in the meal.Valet parking at $25 was kinda steep, but on par with all the others in DC.We will definitely go back for more southern cooking!
