    Veal Tagliatelle (phenomenal)  Braised Short Rib (also fantastic)
    Madison C.

    The service here was absolutely fantastic. Our food and drinks were also delicious. Every course from the wagyu tartare to the key lime cremeux was beautifully presented and perfectly prepared. Portions are fair as well, great all around food experience, but the staff here really make Fitzgerald's stand out. This space has great, intimate ambiance and would be perfect for a date night. The bar by the entrance is gorgeous and the drinks are well-made, not too sweet and well-crafted.

    Warm Brownie Sundae - solid!

    I just had an AMAZING experience at Fitzgerald's. We went for Restaurant Week because the menu really caught my eye. Did not disappoint!! Our waitress was so personable, checked on us the right amount, and the courses were timed perfectly. We are doing dry January but the cocktails around us looked amazing. A run down: Complimentary bread and butter: this is where I knew we were in for a good time. The bread was warm, soft, and salty and the butter was the right temp. I am a sucker for a good bread and butter sitch, so this was a great start Tuna crudo: probably my favorite of the night. So fresh, bursting with flavor, a mix of textures. Beautifully done. Waygu beef tartare: I loved the flavor on this and it was also really fresh. The chips that came with it added a salty crunch, but they weren't super sturdy. My fiancé thought the tartare could have had more flavor, but I really enjoyed it. Branzino bouillabaisse: I'm allergic but my fiancé said the branzino was cooked so perfectly. The tiger prawn was huge, and he said the flavors were really great. Waygu short rib: melted in my mouth!!! Really flavorful and perfectly cooked. The accompaniments really added something too. Pomme rösti: the crunch with the harissa aioli was chef's kiss. My only wish is that each piece was smaller so they'd be crispier but to each their own! Warm fudge brownie: nothing to really write home about but very solid! Key lime crémeux: SO crisp and fresh!!! A really great way to end the meal The atmosphere was sooo cozy and the decor was classy while still being simple. Every table was taken, but it wasn't too loud. A wide array of ages. Will definitely come back! A perfect restaurant week choice!

    I like the vibes here. I feel like this is where rich grandpas talk about golf and drink whiskey on a Sunday afternoon. That being said I am neither a rich grandpa nor do I drink whiskey. Anyways, we got the truffle fries, beef tartare, chicken wings, and chocolate donut for dessert. Loved every dish and it's details.

    After dining at 1789 Restaurant, my wife and I sat at Fitzgerald's bar and ordered the blood orange margarita and their take on a negroni. The bartender was personable and very knowledgeable. It made for the perfect end of our date night!

    Overall I liked the atmosphere of this restaurant but the food and cocktails didn't particularly stand out to me even though everything was decent. I enjoyed the brown butter old fashioned and the duck burger. The calamari and steak tartare were ok. I would come here mostly for the vibe.

    As soon as I stepped through the doors, I was greeted and promptly seated. First impression of the inside was that it's elegant but also cozy. Ordered the fries and some drinks. I can't remember all the drink names off the top of my head, but I can say the lavender drink was good. They also have some happy hour drinks, so that's the perfect time to go. Aside from the drinks, the fries were delicious! Extra crispy and flavorful. What my bf and I liked the most was the server and how knowledgeable he was about the drinks. Definitely a place to visit again when I'm in DC.

    I loved the decor of Fitzgerald's. It's definitely a sports-themed spot, but with a modern twist and clean liners. A couple of tables appeared to be on dates and that was so refreshing to see dresses and blazers being worn. This would be a great date night or post dinner cocktail spot. Speaking of cocktails, I really enjoyed the blood Orange margarita and the Hemingway daiquiri. My boyfriend marveled at the large selection of Japanese whiskeys on the menu and partook in a few new ones. The Korean fried chicken was a must try since I'd read about it in an article for new hot spots in DC. Goodness, they were good! Crunchy, well seasoned, and a great balance of salty, sweet, and spicy. The Pekíng duck burger was exceptionally well prepared. The patty was both Juicy and tender. The addition of the fried egg added just the right amount of umami. The grilled wagyu short rib was very good.

    Excellent atmosphere and drinks...

    Excellent happy hour on a SATURDAY...my wife and I enjoyed time together on our anniversary...found this little spot and had one of the best nights of our lives together...we started at the bar and ended the night with a dinner in the upstairs area...great atmosphere and ambiance...the staff was absolutely great from top to bottom and helpful selecting drinks, food, and also pairings overall...ask for Simón at the bar and prepare yourselves for an experience, Brian is the manager and was great as well (but busy)...GREAT TIMES...thankful for the celebration and evening...Janae was the best and helpful throughout and the absolutely best server...ask for her and Simón...you won't be disappointed...

    One of our favorite restaurants in Georgetown. They have a very good menu and the ambiance is perfect for dinner or just a night out with friends for cocktails and fun. Janae our server is the BEST. She's very attentive, nice and professional. She goes out of her way for what customers need for a pleasant dining experience. We appreciate your service. See you all soon. Dane was also such a professional staff member.

    Tartare with the charcuterie
    Caroline G.

    This place is a total vibe. I was hoping for a loungey type place where'd I'd be able to hear my date with ease and that's what I got. The veal was to die for. Lighting was perfect. Attentive staff with great suggestions. Highly recommend.

    Korean wings, boudvandier and margarita.

    The crowd was immaculate. The best part of the night was the smooth-ness of the drinks made by arguably the greatest bartender.

    Georgetown needs ten more places like this. I'm hesitant to write this review because I don't want to get crowded out! A little gem.

    One of my new go-to spots in DC. 1831 bar is a hidden gem tucked away on the streets near Dupont…read morecircle. If you're walking past, there's a chance that you might miss it. I stumbled across the Yelp page and wanted to check it out. I was surprised by the food and drink options as they had interesting varieties. The chili momo and mango habanero wings were to die for, I would want to stop by just for dinner! I also enjoyed the Moscow mule, I believe I overheard the bartender saying they make their ginger beer in-house. They also have DJs that come through around 9pm on weekends and some weekdays. This is a fun place to hangout and enjoy the company of amazing servers, bartenders, and other people - I've never had anything but a great experience here!

Happy hour (3-7) offers beers ranging $1-3, wine $4-6, $7 margs, and I think a few other drink specials, but those options were good enough for me and I went with the wine. Service was a little slow at first, but the one bartender working was friendly and cheerful and doing her best to keep up with everyone until another two eventually showed up or came back from break. Atmosphere was really chill. I liked the dim lighting, everyone was casual and relaxed with a dj setting up in the corner, some hip hop and classic 00s rap bumping, and a steady flow of young-ish friend groups coming in for cheap beer around 5pm. I tried not to evesdrop on the couple next to me at the bar arguing, but their fight sort of added to the entertainment and general vibe. On the other side of me was an adorable couple unsuspectedly ordering fruity drinks and laughing. Totally will be back whenever the end of my work day brings me to this area.

    This restaurant comes highly recommended on Yelp and is just a short walk from the hotels downtown…read more- even in the rain, the walk is worth it! We arrived to a line out the door on a Friday night but we only waited around 25 minutes for a table. The seating inside is plentiful and the atmosphere is loud but cozy and fun - family friendly and enjoyable. We enjoyed the most amazing food - Fontina Vodka Penne (with Shrimp), Kale & Romaine Caesar Salad, Whiskey & Aged White Cheddar Burger, 20oz Bone-in Ribeye. The steak and burger were cooked to perfection, the sauces were outstanding and the Caesar salad was by far the best out of all of this listed. The bar selection and beer selection were amazing - the menu clearly highlights the types of beer into each category which helps make a decision much faster. The Cider on tap was so good. The service was good- they were very busy so refills and checking in on us took a bit longer, but it was understandable and we didn't have any issues at all. Our server gave the best recommendations for top sellers and her favorites which is nice being from out of town!
