Best Grilled Meat Restaurants In Washington Near Me

Michael Kirschner: I eat here almost every day when you guys going to open back up ? Coronavirus got you down The Reagan tunnels open now The plumbing shop needs food 🤣Best chicken strips in Washington DC

marshallse31: I come here quite often and the Chicken Philly with honey muster is my go to. The buffalo chicken tenders are legit too. Keep it up guys.

Jack G: Amazing food and lightning fast service. Took me 30 seconds to order, get my drink, and get my food.

D Hastings: I got the Philly Cheesesteak. It was pretty good. The cheese was really good and the steak seemed like good quality.

Doh Kim: Best Philly steak I ever had

Dakota Tomes: Good Philly cheese burger.

Francisca Jimenez: (Translated by Google) I tried the chicken tender that they make and they are delicious. They do it. And the very good chips. (Original) Probé los chicken tender q hacen y son riquísimos. Ellos lo hacen. Y las papitas muy buenas.

jasprit Singh: Hi guys. Just tried BLT steak house for a formal business dinner. The restaurant was quiet impressive. Staff was friendly. Ambiance was good. There food was very good and they serve a very nice table bread too. Prices were in the higher range as expected from at a good steakhouse. The only reason they will not get a 5 Star rating is because they were not carrying any Single Malt whiskey above 12 years, generally a 18 year single malt is expected at a high end restaurant. The several round of alcohol that were ordered to the table were messed up and sent back twice. On the whole a great experience and if you are willing to spend top dollars for a good steak I would recommend you try it out.

Ed Weaver: Great atmosphere, delicious food, and exceptional staff. I would have given this 5 stars, but my aged bone in ribeye was a bit dry and over charred for my taste.

Domenick Grieshaber: Everything was great from start to finish. Service was second to none. More importantly, It’s not just about eating it’s about your dining experience. Marco and his staff made us feel like family. They anticipated our every need. It’s hard to get good service these days, Marco and his staff were on point!

J Mac: The Yorkshire Pudding and Rack of Lamb were FABULOUS. Those foods paired with the locally bewed Hazy IPA made for a marvelous combination that I will certainly recommend and enjoy again. The service was outstanding, even in the face of a crowded "special event".

Jillian Woods: My friend and I just ate here with her 6 month old in tow and we could not have had better, friendlier service. Lajuan was our server and he went above and beyond, catering to our needs before we even had to ask. Thank you BLT for an outstanding experience!

Jennifer Garrett: The sea bass here is the best I have ever had!! It melts in your mouth! Nice, romantic atmosphere with great service

Binky's Vapes & CBD Warrior: Yes yes yes, I love lamb and this dish was excellent. I had cream of spinach with this that I used as a dip the next day. It was more than I could eat at one setting. We were vendors at one of their social events, very friendly, food excellent and atmosphere is great. I would recommend and I will be back. The appetizer portions are just right for me.

Reka Davis: This place is amazing. Our server Timothy was so friendly and made sure we were well taken care of. And the FOOD!! When I say melt in your mouth, please believe me. Highly recommend. (We had a Groupon offer as well)

ALEXXXANDRIA 1313: NICE DIM LIT SPOT. I CAME IN TO CELEBRATE MY BIRTHDAY WITH A COWORKER AND I REALLY ENJOYED MYSELF. OUR WAITER “WILL” WAS BEYOND AMAZING. HE WAS SO FUNNY AND WE DIDN’T HAVE TO WAIT LONG FOR ANYTHING. SUPER ATTENTIVE AND GOOD LOOKING TOO LOL! WILL TOLD US IT WAS HIS FIRST DAY BUT HE COULD’VE FOOLED ME!!! HE WAS GREAT AND SO WAS MY MEAL. I ENJOYED 2 ORDERS OF THE CHILLED LOBSTER, THE BONE-IN RIB EYE WITH A SIDE OF BROCCOLINI AND CALAMARI. EVERYTHING WAS FANTASTIC. NEXT TIME I WANT TO SIT IN THE BAR AREA. SEEMS PRETTY LIVELY WHEN ITS PACKED

Renita Lake: I knew it would be good, but HERMAGERD! The steak was like butta. I got the steak and cake (fancy surf and turf). It was a steak and a crab cake. The cake had too kuch filler and not enough Old Bay, in my opinionation, but otherwise delicious. The wine was fab-o, and our waiter was wonderful, knowledgeable, and had a great wit and sense of humor. Imma go back~

Brittany Sample: From placing the reservation on the phone for our party, to the customer service in person, I have nothing but great things to say about this place. The food is phenomenal and very tasty. The wait staff and all workers we encountered went above and beyond. Well worth the price.

Oil Suebsiri T.: Premium steak with long history. Beef quality is superb but the service was not impressive.

Susie Lim: The steak salad is a must try - gave me a new meaning of this menu after trying it at BV Washington DC. My rating is based on this menu only - value for money and my desire to return again. I am overlooking the busy servers service.

Amber B.: Attended a work event here. They were easily able to accommodate 20 people. Service was fantastic and food was phenomenal. Everyone enjoyed what they had. We all ordered appetizers, salads, entrees, shared sides and enjoyed their lovely wine selection. I would definitely recommend this restaurant if you’re looking for a nice steak/seafood dinner.

Charlie: My wife and I found the restaurant through groupon. Paid for a prefixed 3 course fixed menu, great food. I got a filet mignon it was great. The service was excellent, our servers name was David. If you can get David I know your night will be wonderful! The restaurant will not rush you out like a lot of other seem to do, which made me very happy. My wife and I celebrated our 16th wedding anniversary. :)

Thao Huynh: With the Groupon for the prix fixe dinner, this was a lovely experience for our anniversary. The food was delicious. The service was impeccable. The music choice was interesting though, not what I expected from a fancy restaurant; I thought there would be classical/jazz music but it was modern pop. The sauces for the filet mignon were an extra $6, which was not told by the server so we had no idea. Make sure to ask. Other than that, it was a lovely time.

Yauchin Lam: I proposed to my girlfriend here and it was the best service here. The steaks were good, the waiters was a good person, the wine was good, and the soup too. After I propose, we got really good tasting desert. Be prepared to spend money, but it is worth the price. I hope to go there again for our future wedding anniversary.

Beebea H: My daughter made a lunch reservation for 4 at the Capital Grille for lunch. We arrived slightly before our time and were seated immediately. Our server, Joharra (I hope I got that right) came over and told us the menu specials and took our drink order. She was friendly and professional. Throughout our meal she came at all the right times. She definitely helped make our time there more pleasant! Soon afterward we gave our drink order, and our bread selection w/butter was brought to the table. The bread was nice and warm, the butter was fresh with salt lightly sprinkled on top. It was very good. Our drinks came soon afterwards, and Joharra took our orders. I ordered the Seared Salmon with Avocado, Mango and Tomato Salad with Champagne Vinaigrette. My fiancé ordered the Parmesan Crusted Salmon with Roasted Garlic, white wine and lemon butter and he also ordered Potatoes Au Gratin as a side. My daughter ordered a special that had steak and a salad, and her boyfriend ordered the Signature Cheeseburger. We ordered calamari for the table as an app. We also ordered 2 crème brûlée , and an espresso flourless cake for dessert. Everything came very promptly. First the calamari. The flavor of the calamari was very good. Whatever it’s breaded with had a nice flavor that complimented the calamari. However, some of the larger clusters of tentacles were somewhat underdone. The breading wasn’t crisp in those clusters, and it had a bit of a wet, unappealing feel in those spots. All of the rings were done perfectly though and they were lightly crisp. My salmon was tasty, but a little overcooked for my taste. I like my salmon cooked to medium with a moist middle so it melts in your mouth. The accompanying salad was really good and perfectly dressed. I don’t like too much dressing and usually ask for it on the side. But this was perfect. My fiancé enjoyed his salmon and his au gratin potatoes, very much. My daughter’s boyfriend enjoyed his burger and said it was done the way he likes it. My daughter had asked for her steak medium rare (the server confirmed deep pink inside with medium pink throughout and my daughter agreed), but I think her steak came more medium or medium well. She seemed to enjoy it regardless and enjoyed the salad too. The desserts were very good. The espresso cake seemed a little too dense at first, but I think it was just a bit cold… we were seated outside (it was very hot that day) and after about 10 minutes the cake was much smoother. A much nicer texture. The espresso flavor was prominent and amazing. The crème brûlées had a rich vanilla flavor and a very satisfying crack when you broke the top, but didn’t have the soft-set, ‘barely holding its shape’ texture it should have. This was almost a custard-like flan, but still very good. Overall we were happy with our meals at the Capital Grille, and the service was perfection, as was the company and atmosphere. We had a wonderful time. I would go back any time we’re in DC. (Just discovered I put this review under the wrong Capital Grille so this is late getting up)

Gentle John: We just had one of the best lunches in a long time. The lobster salad was the best. Outstanding service. Great atmosphere for a business meeting or happy hour. Try it!

Natalia Mednikov: The Capital Grille in Washington is my favorite steakhouse that belongs to this chain. I love everything; location, atmosphere, design, service, food, wine list. You have won my heart and if anyone asks for recommendations I will always be the first to recommend you!

Hannah Grimsley: My boyfriend and I came here last night for his birthday and they truly went above and beyond to make a memorable experience for us. The service was amazing and the food was immaculate. I got the lamb chops and he got the 14oz steak. We will definitely be coming back soon !

Charlie Carroll: This restaurant was absolutely amazing! We went here after getting a tour of the capitol building. I got the Lobster Salad which tasted wonderful. After that I got the cheesecake which was the best I’ve ever had before. I suggest you go here if you want a nicely decorated restaurant with wonderful food.

Mike: My wife and I went here for the first time this past Saturday as our last dinner out before leaving D.C. Francisco made some excellent recommendations and really made our dinner one that we will fondly remember.

Dani Brooks: Came to The Capital Grille for a late lunch after attending the Japanese Street Festival. Man on man was this an experience! The drinks and food were delicious and the service was outstanding. Our waiter, Nathan, was fantastic! The steak was cooked perfectly and the soup I ordered, lobster bisque, was amazing. I would highly recommend eating here if you’re ever in Washington D.C.

Aditya Karandikar: Had an awesome time here as a late night/ early next day stop. The food was quite nice and fairly refined, especially at such a late hour! The atmosphere was popping as well which made it more enjoyable. Service was very friendly and they had great oysters. Fresh complimentary bread never hurts either…

Sam M: This place is one of the more famous restaurants in DC. I visited this spot during brunch and it was packed. I would definitely recommend making a reservation for both weekend dinner and brunch services. I started with New England clam chowder and some salad dish. For entrees, I got eggs benedict and catfish. All the dishes I ordered were pretty good. But, I definitely enjoyed their desserts more even though I was pretty full before it. Their key lime pie and salted caramel bread pudding were both amazing! Staffs were very accommodating and attentive during the whole service. I’m planning to visit this restaurant and will get some oysters and burgers next time. I heard they are pretty good. I definitely recommend this place to celebrate any special occasions.

Suzi Figueroa: Wow, wow and wow! A friend recommended this establishment to me when I asked for dining recommendations for my upcoming DC trip. I am so glad I listened. The warm and inviting ambiance matched the service. And the food? Oh my goodness. Delicious. My SO ordered meatloaf. Who knew meatloaf could take on a such an extraordinary presentation.

Elaine Viegas: AMAZING! There is no other word to describe it. Since we arrived until we paid the service was perfect. I couldn’t be more happy for their food, service and kindness on my birthdays lunch. We didn’t mention that it was my birthday but they saw on my profile and as soon as I arrived they asked to confirm and no only brought my desert with a candle and a cute chocolate happy birthday place on the top. Our server was amazing, she arrived singing happy birthday, was very classy and really surprised me. Thank you for the excellence in your service. BTW the food it’s top quality, my oysters and shrimps were fresh abs really tasteful.

Jelena M: Great food, great price, great service! The waiter we had was so nice, knowledgeable, and friendly! The calamari was very good, but watch out for the spicy peppers in it . My salad was yummy! I usually never order salads, but I am glad I did as the dressing was citrusy and refreshing! They also give warm bread and butter while you wait 😍

JennyLovesGogi 제럽고 (제니럽스고기): Especially, the lamb was fantastic.They provide fresh salad, salmon, soup, and fruits at the self corner.And they gave us a fantastic cheesecake for our birthday! 💯💯Thank you for nice food and service!

Morgan: Fantastic service. The employees here really work well as a team. The food is always great. I took my boyfriend here when we first started dating and he loved it. Took him again along with my grandparents, who were in town visiting… I didn’t tell our server, but we were also celebrating my grandma being cancer-free. Our server went out of his way to give my grandma a free dessert that said “Welcome to DC” (see picture)… That was really nice. Thanks for many great experiences.

Steffon Greatness: Danie Magalhes & Staff are super accommodating. They understand customer service. Daniel kept a smile on his face as if he wanted to be at work. The Service, QUICK, Efficient, & Friendly. It’s as if they want you to ask question. 🤣 The Food, Fresh, Hot, Tasty❗️I’ve been to hole in the wall Brazilian spots and I’ve been to Texas de Brazil… the food tastes better thank all of those I’ve experienced. Pro Tip, They get busy quick, they have a full dining area. Tables fit 2, 4 & round tables that must fit about 8. They fill up pretty quick. (And this was a Thursday) Try the bottom steak & lamb. It’s the best. I wasn’t a fan of the beer marinated chicken however it wasn’t bad. Last thing get the soda in the picture it’s AMAZING. I want a case of them lol. *** Please mark this helpful if it helped you***

Naturally E: The food and service was top notch! I really enjoyed all of the selections & the quality of the meat. The market table was my favorite! Soooo many options to choose from. The drinks were fantastic! Surprisingly, they have Happy Hour all day! Our server, Ryan, was ahhhmazing! He was super cool! Really enjoyed our meal.

John Kurton: Great place for meat lovers. Great quality meats and good size cuts just kept on coming. The salad bar was great too. Some how even managed to find room for dessert.

Autumn Bishop: We went for the first time for my birthday, everything was amazing. Our server Denzel was overall a 10/10 super attentive even though it was crazy busy he made sure our needs were met and even offered to have specific meats brought to us if we hadn’t tried them yet. He also had great recommendations and accommodations. The food was all fantastic. We will be definitely coming back the next time we are in DC !!

Ozzie Angrish - REALTOR: What a wonderful surprise 😮! The location is great, the food was good, and the service was excellent. The restrooms were very clean! You can choose to eat by the water or inside. You must have a reservation I believe. The reason for the 4 🌟 s is because I was brought vegan options instead of being handed a menu to choose options. After, I explained my concern, the service was excellent! I would definitely attend again. 😌 FYI: Ride the metro, bus, uber, or a scooter because parking is horrible.

SassyKay TheBoss: Nice outdoor seating the devil eggs were very delicious! I got the grilled chicken it was very moist and juicy, but it was lacking flavor not seasoned at all. Other than that the restaurant was amazing!!

Brit R: Was in town for leisure and was unable to make it to another reservation. Booked on Open Table here and got there early. We were allowed to sit at the bar and order drinks and appetizers first before reservation outdoor. The drinks and food were absolutely delicious! We had the Grill Punch, Strawberry Bellini, bread basket, fresh Oysters, and the steak and egg meal on the Sunday Brunch menu. The Chimichurri is some of the best ive ever had! We wanted to try to pineapple upside down dessert but they were out, a really nice family next to us that were celebrating their Anniversary was so gracious to let us taste from their platter! Our server Justin was amazing! He knew the menu well and made great suggestions. The noise level was very moderate. The restaurant is spic and span. The service was fast. The front house was moving through and making sure everything was operating smoothly. I will definitely recommend this place to anyone i know visiting DC and i will be making a must stop for future visits as well!

Kristen Darby: This is one of the best dinners that we have had in a while y’all should check it out. Steaks are delicious and cooked perfectly. And they have a kids menu. The service is great! Our server was amazing and the manager Jojo checked in with us throughout our meal. We are here for 4 days and will likely return

Kirsten Greenwell: Husband and I came here because we had gift cards to the company that owns The Grill and it greatly exceeded our expectations! We got the mixed grill set menu and were blown away. The ribeye with grilled shrimp and crab cakes was incredible, and the chocolate cake is one of the best we’ve ever had. The only weak spot was the Moroccan lamb skewers on the appetizer platter that were too cinnamon-y. It’s definitely expensive but well worth it for a special occasion!

Yessenia C: Delicious. Everything I tried was spectacular. It is expensive but worth it. My favorite part of the meal was the sweet potatoes. You MUST try them.

Merissa Pemberton: Holy hell this place was seriously fantastic! The atmosphere was relaxing and made for a great intimate/romantic dinner. Camila made sure we had a great anniversary celebration. She recommended multiple dishes on the menu - all of which were extremely delectable. She also had assistance from another woman working at the restaurant who’s name I unfortunately do not remember but also provided incredible service. This was our first time but will not be our last. You can’t go wrong with any item and please order the passionfruit mousse with the Brazil liquor poured on top! Camila clearly deserves recognition and a raise based on our experience alone.

REL VS: Great food. Authentic Brazilian place. The Bobo de Camarao (Shrimp Stew) and the caipirinhas are the best

Nicole Farnsworth: Absolutely fantastic experience. My girlfriend is from Brazil and we both really wanted for me to try all the food she’s been telling me about for so long… this was the only restaurant whose menu she approved in the area. From the moment we arrived, the manager was super friendly and talked to us personally quite a few times, and all the service was very friendly and prompt. We both got the brunch three course meal, and every single thing we got was was FANTASTIC. My girlfriend told me it was EXTREMELY authentic and the best Brazilian food she’s had in the US. I’ve never had Brazilian food, but it was some of the tastiest food I’ve had in a while PERIOD. Cannot recommend this restaurant any more highly.

Lindsey Stiles: We had been walking by this place for years and then finally decided to try it, and we are so glad we did! Such delicious food, highly recommend!

Natasha Hansen: Delicious!! Great drinks and small plates. The spicey sausage and yuka was a must try! Friendly service and good amount of outdoor seating. Can’t wait to go back!

Ron Costigan: Delicious food and drinks. Family owned business. Friendly staff

WABBA: This is a great tasting food grill experience! Polite and friendly staff, quality food ingredients and a talented chef make for a memorable 😋 yummy experience.

KoKo & Jimmy Show: This food is always extremely fresh and good never a complaint from me. Dave the Hostess at the front is always amazing and has great customer service as well .

Michael Garcia: I decided to try CPSH and to my delight it was amazing! The staff truly make the experience memorable. You must try their trio crème brûlée ExceptionalOhhhhhh and the French onion soup…… on point

Adrian Nagle: Excellent meal, excellent service, and friendly staff. My party visited Charlie Palmer Steakhouse in D.C. as a celebration during our trip and late birthday for my daughter since missing it last year during covid. Being visitors to D.C., we were not sure what to expect or where to go for a celebration dinner. We were treated very well with friendly staff. Our waiter was patient with us to help us with the menu and style of service Charlie Palmer provides. We all ordered steaks which were cooked to order with several sides we all shared. Desserts were awesome and were a nice unsual splurge for us. Overall, we had an excellent time and really felt great after our dinner. To top off our evening, we were treated to a special location to view the Capitol and Mall. We left the restaurant impressed and very happy we visited. We highly recommend Charlie Palmer Steakhouse in D.C.

Trevor John: Very non-assuming venue within a minutes walk of the Capital. Good food vibes and aperitif menu. Glad I stopped in and had dinner.

Ryan Rhodes: Classic steakhouse; menu is small, but everything is delicious. The service could be more attentive - they may be short staffed due to the pandemic. The burger and steak are good portion sizes for lunch.

Robert F Jr.: Amazing food and service. Excellent atmosphere. Definitely will return

Laura Molinares: One of my favorite spots in DC! The team at Charlie Palmer is always so welcoming. The manager, Mike, is always friendly and accommodating with reservations and private events. The team at the bar is so professional and kind, I can always count on Lamar to create amazing drinks and he always has incredible new suggestions. Danny, Lewis and Alfredo are always at the bar with a warm smile and providing exceptional customer service. The waiters/waitresses and hostesses are always on top of their game too! There are many restaurants in the DMV, but Charlie Palmer has a was of making you feel at home while also providing an exceptional dining experience with delicious foods and drinks and the best customer service. Definitely recommend checking them out!

Deborah Whaley: Enjoyed my birthday dinner, food is awesome, waiters waitresses and servers were all very polite and attentive. Service was excellent!!

Konstantin: Great restaurant. Atmosphere is nice, staff is friendly and food is really good. Oysters were fresh and fried chicken was simply delicious. This place is very popular so reservation is recommended there.

Swastika Nohara: The best stone crab there is! My favorite was crab stuffed shrimp because it was creamy and delicious! Perfectly seasoned and crunchy at the same time. Creamed spinach and broccolini was also nice. We spent 156 USD for those meals as seen on my photos.

Maryam Sherbaf: We went to Joe’s Seafood, Prime Steak and Stone crab for our anniversary. The service is excellent, atmosphere is nice , the restaurant is pretty packed. The food is good but it’s a bit overrated and overpriced.

Allison Williams: Wow this place is gorgeous, really nice ambiance, I want to start there. The food is delicious and fresh as well. It is pricey so if your going and you have a party of more than 2, expected to spend like 100$ a person. The drinks were good but not strong enough for me. It was my birthday and my first time there and I enjoyed every moment.

Melissa Flaminio: Our waiter Jeffrey was fantastic. We were looking for a good seafood spot close to our hotel that we could celebrate my recent graduation and it totally hit the spot. Got the seafood pasta and the crab was buttery with citrus, and the little slices of asparagus was top notch. Loved it and definitely worth the trip

Amanda Turcotte: Great Texas BBQ in the heart of DC. The service here is topnotch. We were greeted warmly and shown to a table right away. We were also asked if we had dined at Hill Country before and when we said we had not, the hostess politely informed us of how the ordering process works, which was really helpful. The staff preparing the meat were friendly and engaged us in conversation while they prepared our plates. There are several types of meat to choose from....brisket, sausage, chicken, etc. All were really good. The chicken was more moist than almost any other bbq place I have visited in DC and Texas. They have every side you can think of as well. I highly recommend the bourbon mashed sweet potato, chili, and deviled eggs. The cornbread is pretty good too....honey butter is delish. They offer margarita pitchers, which are really good, just be sure to sit in the bar area if you want to take advantage of the happy hour specials. They also have another large dance club space in the basement, where it looks like they have live bands. Overall, we had a great time and would comeback. Thanks!

Emilie K: I love this spot. It’s cafeteria styled. The brisket sandwich is always so on point. When my husband worked in the area, he would eat here every week. Now we always stop by for a sandwich combo whenever are we in this side of town! You won’t be disappointed. Employees are always friendly!

Da-Wang Wu: To be honest, I enjoyed the dining environment more than the food. The place was pretty large with a lot of interesting decorations. The hot link and the chicken were both delicious, but the beef was okay. The mashed potato was pretty good as well. It’s a nice place for casual dining with friends!

Jessica R: Good barbecue and very friendly staff. Lots of food for your money. Ordering is a little confusing if you’ve never been before. Food was quick and tasty. I got the brisket sandwich with a side of Mac and cheese and an extra side of the deviled eggs. The deviled eggs could have used a little more flavor, but everything else was great. Also I wasn’t sure if there were more sauce options than what was on the table but I would have liked more variety of barbecue sauces like other places I have been.

Christopher: Great brisket sandwich. Cafeteria style ordering for food, then server bring food & takes drink order. Sandwich was big & delicious. Chili was great also

Patrick Young: Got the dry aged prime 22 oz bone in ribeye cooked medium rare. It was $70 so pretty expensive for me, but it was honestly incredible tasting. I cook my own steaks from the grocery store and I could never get it to taste this good. It was cooked perfectly and it tasted so good that I ate all 22 oz there, then asked for a to-go box for the bone so I could make sure I got to eat every last morsel. If you have the money, the place is 100% worth it

Jovana Bulatovic: Fantastic atmosphere, very attentive staff. Steaks were cooked perfectly and the wine list is seemed carefully selected. The manager greeted us and stopped by to check on us and make sure all was to our satisfaction. I highly recommend.

Lisa Ellis: First timer, would totally recommend this restaurant to any one looking for great food,atmosphere and staff. Price wise is excellent for a place in between medium class and fine dining. And if your looking for a place to (Share) a meal this is your place, portions are plenty big enough.

Ryan Arnt: Great food, eclectic atmosphere a Steakhouse that sets the bar high. If you get a chance make sure you eat here.

rob santiago: It’s a great experience. The ambiance is very welcoming and charming. Amazing wines, food and service. Kylie was extremely knowledgeable and made great recommendations. She understood exactly how I wanted a monkey shoulder rusty nail and that nailed the night for me. I will be back.

André Hentz: The service, food, and ambiance is fantastic. We recently celebrated our anniversary at The Palm, and will dine there again for sure.

Gentle John: Good food as you would expect. Our waiter seemed a bit distracted

Jaela Ford: This review is strictly for the waitress named Nicole. We would have given 5 stars if she did not taint our experience in the beginning. We were told by the hostess that she would be our “wonderful” waitress. She also came over to bring us menus and ask our water preference as if she was our waitress. However, for some odd reason the waiter was switched. When she was acting as our waitress, she was extremely short when answering our questions & seemed as though she did not want to be bothered. She also never introduced herself. We had to ask our new waiter for her name. There was absolutely nothing positive about her. It was as if she had pre judged us just because we were a table of young black women. Thankfully, our new waiter Phillip came over and saved the night. He was super welcoming and helpful. He answered all of our questions with a smile. His customer service was top tier! The drinks and food were also amazing! Thank you Phillip!

Mary McKay: We couldn’t have chosen a better establishment to celebrate our 3 year anniversary. From the food to the service, everything was exceptional. The service size of everything is huge! You could definitely share every course and spend half the money…or if your like us, we enjoy the left overs the best day 😍.

Renee M: Sooo...the wagyu steak was delicious and the seared scallops were the BEST I have ever had! The sear on both dishes was perfect, the flavors were on point, and the meat melted in my mouth like butter! The drinks were CRAZY good, like strong, but made with appreciation for the full flavor profile vs just the liquor. Our server, Rice, aka the Tony Baker look a like was on it. He was very attentive and gave us great suggestions. We have 4 sides, 2 were bomb and 2 were not. The roasted brussels a sprouts and the cream spinach were tasty. The cream corn was gross and the lobster mac was under whelming. For $40 a side I would like more flavor. The atmosphere was cool. The live singer was entertaining and awkward. I would go back just to chill at the bar.

NatFan: Pretty good steak. Not the best but solid. Had the 21 ounce rib eye with imperial crab and broccoli with a bottle of Justin. Justin is highly recommended. They were all pretty good. Moved to the bar to be closer to the pianist. Late Bday outing with friend.

Isa Alvarez: Lobster Santiago was tasty. Wonderful atmosphere with live music, a piano and bass. Men are required to wear a suit jacket throughout dinner.

John Barnhart: Birthday dinner for my brother. Excellent service, excellent food. Guys must wear a jacket but they have some if you forget yours so no worries! I had the rack of lamb which was awesome

Nicole Deloney: My experience at Mortons for New Year Eve was perfect. The service was excellent, Simon was our server and he was nice and attentive. My steak was cooked to perfection, the potatoes au gratin were fabulous and I even enjoyed the Brussel sprouts. The folks working at the hostess stand were very pleasant as well. I thought it was nice that they provided party favors for Nye! Mortons did not disappoint, I will be back!

Konstantin: Good steak house. The place has nice and cozy atmosphere however we weren’t impressed with food at the prices they charge

Renaud Perrier: Always a very good experience with steaks grilled perfection and a great service. A special note for the Cajun ribeye as usual

Jonathan Carey: I was a walk-in on a Friday night & I sat at the full-service bar. Service was excellent, the surf & turf was delicious, drinks were stout, and I wish I could eat here more often. Very cool ambiance!

Craig GroveRealtor: Had an excellent experience. Our waiter AJ was super friendly and made great suggestions. He made us feel extremely comfortable and laugh. The steak and sides were delicious. Highly recommended! Ask for AJ!

Courtney B: My first time here and I loved it! It was a friends 35th birthday, they gave the 5 of us a private booth, that we could close the curtain for more privacy if needed. Bella our sever was amazing from start to finish. I got the crab and shrimp stuffed salmon and it was really good with the lobster bisque mashed potatoes! I will definitely be back!

Phillip Bulger: Food was good, but not great value for price. Service could have been better, a few orders for a group of 10 were missed. Steak needed to be sent back. Overall still a good experience.

Lou Costanza: Very friendly staff. Our server was very attentive. Shrimp cocktail appetizer was delicious. The grilled chicken Caesar salad was very good. I opted to add shrimp to it. We had a table next to the windows that overlook 17th Street which provided ample people watching opportunities between courses. Drinks were good too. Decent food at a reasonable price point.

Lani: The food was great. The service was friendly. My steak was perfectly medium and the seafood was good. The sides could have more seasoned but everything was good overall. The drinks were a bit slow but the food was out fast. Annie’s ambiance is always the best part. It’s a special part of DC history. Enjoyed my visit.

Dominic Possoch: First of: this restaurant is in an amazing neighborhood. Such good and friendly vibes, it’s uncanny. Annie’s is an awesome place. The people are kind, the service is great, the food is phenomenal and the cheesecake is to die for. Eat there now, thank me later.

Bonnie Ponce: Wonderful food and excellent and fast service. My friend got a NY Strip steak and I ordered Maryland Crab cakes. Both dishes were very good. Great and festive atmosphere. The service was wonderful.

lewis zajac: We have been patrons of Annies’s since they were located in the space that is now JR’s. It has 100% of the time been spot on. Naturally our favorite server Manno always makes sure we have a wonderful experience. I do believe we have had everything on the menu at this point and the favorite is always going to be Bull in the Pan medium rare, however the Blue Collar Burger is a close second. If you are looking for a lighter meal check out happy hour. I like the house Manhattan, but my Husband goes for the Martini. And the slider’s are great. All in all Annie’s is the place to be.

Dennis Johnson: We got back from Pittsburgh.Amnies is our mothership in DC. Best food in District and beyond.Alfred has been our loyal wait fir over 15 years. He IS Annies!

JP: The service was bomb. The people were so nice and friendly. Our waitress was the sweetest! The ribeye was very good and had great flavor! The steak salad was good. The chicken Cesar salad and the Greek chicken salad were okay.
