Food is superb and serves is also great. The best restaurant in dc and the honeycomb semifreddo was absolutely delicious.

We did the chef’s 4 course tasting menu, adding a dish or two to our liking. I was shocked because every dish was thoughtfully and incredibly prepared. The high quality of the ingredients and creativity with flavors shine through with every mouthful. Staff were welcoming, friendly, attentive, and interested in curating as good as an experience possible. The wine pairing with the tasting menu introduced me to a whole range of delicious wines I never knew about. This restaurant is a winner! Bring your friend, lover, or enemy, you’ll both walk away new people.

This is my favorite restaurant in the United States of America. No question. It’s too good. Can’t wait to go back. My favorite thing is that there is music playing on speakers on top of the door to enter. The experience starts on the sidewalk and I already feel like I’m being loved.

We tried chef's choice and it was a great experience. Even one person in our party was allergic to dairy and they had customized dishes for him.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this restaurant. Ive had the pleasure of visiting in each season except spring. The food is always of great quality and beautifully prepared. Tonight my friend and I enjoyed the Sommelier's Tasing alongsde the Chef's Tasting menu and it was revelatory. I wont put specifics here, as the menu changes. Just want to say it was and has been one of my best meals in DC. Thank you Chefs, waiters, Megan (sp?) at the bar and Mareo at the door. See you very soon!

I always love going to Lutece! It’s such a quaint spot perfectly situated in a quieter section of Georgetown. The service is also great. I’ve only come for brunch but am hoping to try out what they have for dinner at some point. I loved the crispy duck terrine and the mezcal smoked salmon toast. The avocado tartine was not my favorite but still pretty good. It’s a small space so be sure to make a reservation! Perfect place to sit outside on a Sunday morning and people watch.

Quaint restaurant which might belong more to Montreal or Europe than Georgetown. Attentive service.

This quaint small cozy restaurant hit the spot! The fluke crudo was fresh and soooo flavourful most amazing fresh seafood I've had. I had the chef's tasting menu- definitely worth getting the mussel first course magnifique. The duck, perfectly cooked. Tim the mixoloogist is very kind and knowledgeable cafe-had the cafe d'abeille and the isla del Encanto amazing drinks. Corey lead chef did his thing tonight gnocchi so fresh made from scratch

Would like to start off by saying I’m a big butter fan, even enjoy it in my coffee sometimes but this omelette tasted like butter, not eggs just butter 3/5. There were also flies around the table, for a outdoor hotdog stand I wouldn’t mind but if I have to make a reservation, I prefer not to be attacked by bugs. The burger was top tier 4/5, different than lucky buns and surely not better but solid. Egg chorizo dish also 4/5, just seemed to be lacking something. Left pretty disappointed and with a stomach ache.

Four course tasting menu was divine.i particularly liked the first course and the desserts.the second course fell a bit low of expectation.the final course was also delicious (i love duck) but i was so full i could not finish.left feeling extremely full.service was cordial but not as upbeat as i would've liked.i like to hear a little more about the story behind the dishes & the chef in general.

This place is overrated!
They charge you 25 bucks per person to reserve a table and promise to refund you once you show up! I showed up and they did tell me your refund is being processed! 4 days after saying that to me no refund I have received.

Menu also is so limited and you have the rule of 2 hours only and you have to leave the place or you risk being kicked out!

I was celebrating my friend’s birthday and made a special request during the reservation to get specific cake! Unfortunately they didn’t call to say they can’t do it, and I had to know that while being there with my friend.
So disappointed!

Had SUCH a great meal here. We came for lunch and thoroughly enjoyed everything.
We started with the Golden Ossetra Caviar (Pomme Paillasson) & Dry Aged Steak Tartare. Both were so delicious. I would’ve ordered 5 more of each!
The Chicken Liver Mousse was perfect for those who enjoy a sweet and salty kind of craving. I was impressed by the mousse, it was like a hazelnut fois gras kind of vibe. Definitely a unique take!
For entrees we got the Parisian Gnocci & Pork Milanese. I thought the gnocci had the perfect texture and was packed with flavor. The pork was also very tasty. The yuzu koshō was a nice touch. The crisp cook also made it extremely enjoyable in my opinion.
The dessert was amazing too. I’m a sweets girl and was truly blown away. Can’t wait to come back.

Honestly a 10/10 experience - from the staff, food, vibe. I need this place to have a NYC location or do a pop up soon!

Unbeatable quality

Both are super sweet.

And wine all French is the way …

I will put it in simple words

Trust me when I was there I said in my head why are you charging this less.

Beautiful atmosphere, wonderful and friendly service. Food definitely keeps me coming back to eat more of the regular menu. Chef's tasting was a wonderful option. Some of the best food and wine selections in D. C.including NA options.
