“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!“

“Lovely spot in the Dupont Circle Hotel. I don't usually choose hotel restaurants but this was a perfect spot for a quiet lunch with a friend. Our server, Miguel, was fantastic - very helpful, thoughtful, and just the right amount of time spent at our table. The GM (don't have his name) was also very nice - funny and attentive from start to finish. The food was very good, I had a salad with salmon on it, and my friend had the crispy salmon lunch. Highly recommend if you need a classy, quiet spot in downtown DC.“

“Me and my husband came to the bar for a la carte dining, had an amazing time with a very personalized beverage pairing (s/o to Chris our bartender!) We'll DEFINITELY be back to do the entire tasting menu. Lovely atmosphere, not stuffy, great music, GOOD LIGHTING (hard to come by in DC) and overall stellar food. Come here for your next date night or special occasion dinner, you won't regret it!“

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.“

“This review would’ve initially gotten a 3 star review due to the host giving my partner a dirty look upon arrival (blonde white woman with a bun), however our wonderful waiter, Eric H., completely elevated the experience. He was very attentive and engaging, made lots of conversation and made our first visit a pleasant one. We’ll be on the lookout for him upon our next visit to The Capital Grille.“

“We had 10:30 brunch reservation. The meal consists of several amazing courses. Delicious and beautiful presentations. Vegan and non-vegan members of my party enjoyed it very much. I liked how the servers paused between courses so that we didn't feel rushed. They gave us a menu in case we wanted to refer to what was being served. The servers were professional: attentive without hovering.“

“My wife and I went here for a first date anniversary recently, and it was fantastic! We've been to several Michelin star restaurants around the world, and this was one of the best. The food was just amazing course after another amazing course. The level of innovation and flavor was just off the charts. The service was also impeccable, with super friendly chefs and staff. The interactive experience is something truly memorable. Special shout-out to Sean, who was super helpful to me when I was trying to figure out which cocktails to order!“

“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.“

“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!“

“This was always one of our favorite spots when we lived in the area. Back in DC for pleasure/business. The first reservation I got was at Oceanaire. It was even better than I remember. We had the big eye tuna and the Dover sole. Outstanding!“

“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.“

“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!“

“As always, everything from the bar to the kitchen was perfect. As good as the drinks and the food are, the people make it a consistent destination of pure joy. From Linda and Jason behind the bar to Mariana, Nikki, Michelle, Heather, and Evan on the floor, this is always our go-to place.“
