The food is amazing! Drinks were all good. Service was very friendly and customer service orientated. Highly recommend! Ambience is classy. Atara was our waitress and she attended to our every need. read more

Great for Instagram, underwhelming for taste. Relatively limited menu options and they were out of two entrees that my friends ordered. Our calamari was salty. The Mac and cheese was literally noodles and sauce; please don't waste your $8. On top of the mediocre food, our waiter was standoffish, unwelcoming, and generally unfriendly towards our party.. what's up with that? read more

Crap....... Why must I keep going. Yelp is silly in this aspect. They ask for your complaint you give it to them and the don't leave you be... the restaurant is lacking not a place I would tell my friends to go and perhaps should not exist. Food is bland service is non existent and ambience is mediocre. read more

Came here for brunch and was not super impressed. Gatsby is in a great location and has a beautiful interior, with 1920s vibes and a fun mural on the wall. The food, however, was hit or miss. I got the soufflé pancake and an order of breakfast potatoes. If you google soufflé pancakes, you see fluffy, tall pancakes. My dish was cake. No, seriously, it looked and tasted exactly like sheet cake. It was good, don't get me wrong, but can't be called breakfast or brunch food. And I wasn't really in the mood to eat dessert for lunch, so that was unfortunate. The breakfast potatoes were delicious, though--crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Maybe I just ordered the wrong thing, but this wasn't for me. read more

Super fun spot for dinner right next to Nats Park!! Came here with my fiance (luckily the Nats weren't playing) so coudl easily walk in and et a table. Decor is all 20s theme. Staff was all super nice. I ordered the steak thai salad which was delicious!! Usually I like ordering Brussel sprouts but wasn't a fan of these ones since they were really cheesey...many people are into it though. TVs are all around the bar in the middle so perfect spot to catch a game but definitely nicer than going to a sports bar. read more

This spot was recommended by a friend for their wings. Hot and sour wings that is. We had an order and it was good, almost like a sweet and sour sauce with a hint of spice. Wings could be fried harder to maintain crunch factory. We also had an ordered of the seafood linguini and asian chicken salad. The food, service and atmosphere was decent however it was way overpriced. Certainly a great spot to hangout at before, during or after a baseball game but not my choice for any given night I'm looking for a sit down meal. read more

First and foremost - Charles is the goat of service - hands down amazing people skills and awareness. Him and Winnie took amazing care of our table for a special friends birthday. I will definitely be back simply because of the service provided and the great drink special (no prohibition here) - great decor and ambience but hands down undeniable service/experience read more

Wow - the KNEAD group went ALL OUT with converting this space into a beautiful artistic airy space ! Even designing of the most impressive bathrooms I've also seen in a while! Keith our server was a PRO- remembered everyone's complicated orders, gracious, and made us feel special ! I wanted something to add to my tequila and you'll see in the photo he brought me samples of all the juices they have and I was able to mix my own!! Blue plate specials from 3pm-6pm are a STEAL for $16, my mothers osso buco melted in the mouth and was gorgeously plated... my vegan ceaser salad was a welcome surprise to be able to enjoy my first non-dairy ceasar salad- the piece of extra grilled salmon I asked for was perfectly cooked... the chargrilled asparagus was DELISH and had this gorgeous French grain mustard on it & fries were crispy and hot. The mandarin salad looked great and the all day eggs potatoes and pancakes are also a welcome addition to navy yard ! Our lemon meringue tart was TART & the devils food cake is a known familiar to us mah-ze-dar regulars ! I HOPE they can maintain this standard of service and quality as they're discovered.... ! read more

Meh. Drinks were very good and unique. The write up I read made it sound amazing, and all 4 in our party were disappointed. The beef dip sandwich came with the tiniest cup of au jus ever, you could dip at all. It tasted like nothing but beef drippings - was very oily, kept separating, and had very little flavor. One of asked for beef gravy instead (saw they had it on another menu item). It looked good, but also had so little flavor. The manager had come around to check (that's when the 2 of us ordered the gravy) and she knew we weren't happy, but didn't come around again after she had the waitress bring the gravy. The chicken pot pie and seafood pasta were given a B by their orderers. The article I read talked about their amazing desserts, but the only option was apple pie. Having been disappointed with the food so far, we decided to do dessert elsewhere. read more

Just... wow! I loved the ambiance. It's right next to the baseball field & we walked from the metro (about a 5 min walk). Didn't take a photo but the pitcher of bloody Mary's was amazing! We split it between 3 of us and we all got ~2! I got the Hola Pina and it was honestly the best way to start a Saturday full of drinking. Definitely recommend the Bacon & Gratin Brussels to split between 2 people, I couldn't have eaten them all by myself on top of my (already large) meal & cocktail. The potatoes were my favorite part lowkey because I loveeee the peppers and onions they threw in with them. You've always got to shoutout a place with good hollandaise so that's exactly what I'll do-- the Pastrami Hash was a big hit and I loved it! If I could go here every weekend and try something different each time, I would. read more

Ordered take out on the second day of the opening. Everything was delicious. The meatloaf was a little salty but overall still very very tasty. The spaghetti was super fresh so while it was spaghetti it was still very well made and craft with the chunks of meat. Overall very pleased and can't wait to try more dishes! read more

Great food and service...went there for brunch this morning. Had the avocado Benedict with bacon and a cherry scone. Everything was perfect. The Bloody Mary was a little too spicy for me, but that's just my preference. Would definitely go back. read more

We came for a quick drink and ended up spending a few hours. The menu is amazing and I think we ordered one of everything:) The chicken wings and salmon salad were our favorites! read more

The Smashburger & Chicken Pot Pie (probably the best I've ever had) were both divine!!! Completely surprised! our waiter DAVID made us feel like we were at a Michelin starred restaurant as he was SO attentive and gave us amazing tailored recommendations based on our preferences. One of us has major seafood allergies and he made sure to double check with the chef and even came back to us with cross contamination warnings. THE BEST Service I've had in DC in a while...thanks to David and his caring, thoughtful and extremely-high food knowledge! -1 star because the bathrooms were consistently low on toilet paper. Although very clean. read more

I made a reservation for 20, even needed to send a form with credit card. When we showed up, no reservation could be found. After finally getting the tables, we were told that the restaurant could not separate the checks. The separate checks were confirmed as part of the reservation. After "comprising" about the checks, the service took forever. The server wouldn't extend the happy hour pricing even though the delay was not our fault. My meal was cold and half the table was done before the last person was served. I have never been to a restaurant that was so unwilling to adjust their position to improve the service to a customer. read more

Food is ok. Drinks are better. Good spot to grab some drink before your main event. Pretty aesthetic. The best thing here is probably their pot pie read more

The wife and I went to Gatsby yesterday the ambiance was really nice, and the service provided was amazing. Our server was very welcoming and was able to answer all our questions regarding the bottomless drink option they have for 90 mins which we decided to choose for 38.99 each which was great. For the food option, we ordered the devil eggs which was amazing!!!! At 1.50 it was a bit pricey for halved eggs but it was really good and we loved it. I went with the 16 oz ribeye (which lacked flavor and was bland), sauteed spinach and French fries. I ordered the brisket poutine as a side and it was really good. My wife ordered the Chicken Picatta and she voiced the same sentiments where the food was missing flavor and needed a lot of salt and pepper. Overall the experience was okay. I would return for the bottomless dinner drinks, the Brisket Poutine and the amazing devil eggs. read more

Loved the brunch so much, I went two weekends back to back. The restaurant is three levels and the ambiance is elevated but not too fancy that you feel uncomfortable. The service is friendly and fast. The menu has a nice variety of breakfast and lunch items, as well as several options for bottomless drinks as well. I really loved the fact that for the bottomless mimosas you can tell the server your juice level preference! The old bay/Mumbo wings were super tasty and the blue cheese dressing seemed house made. My husband ordered the calamari and he enjoyed that as well. The cinnamon roll is soooo good. Big enough to share but I ate it myself (no regrets). They sell out pretty early so make sure to go earlier if you want to make sure you get one. My husband also got the brisket poutine fries which he said were pretty good also. Both times I had the burger (my typical go to brunch choice) and it was one of the best burgers I've had! 2 patty smash burger, cheese, carmelized onions (yes please) and thousand island dressing. The Parmesan fries were crispy but the Parmesan didn't really stand out, just tasted like regular fries to me. Either way, super solid brunch spot that is quickly becoming one of my faves! read more

I saw this place on Tik Tok. Normally Tik Tok restaurants don't deliver. This one did. i went for brunch. The spinach dip was top tier. Hawaiian French toast, excellent. All American breakfast was.... All American. The drinks were amazing. Service by Charles was everything you would want. I'll be back for dinner service soon. read more

First, let me say that it pains me to write this, but I'm hoping it will help Gatsby improve. The good: Onion rings were amazing! The meh: The rest of my food, which consisted of the Wednesday special half-smokes, and the Watergate Cake for dessert. The half-smokes had no taste; the only way to make them taste like anything was to heap on the mustard and ketchup. And then that cake - it was so pretty and yet so bland. Again, no flavor, and I tried all the components individually, Great British Baking Show style first, and then all together. To be clear, the food is not bad, it's just not particularly good. It's meh. read more

The food was wonderful, one of the best pieces of French toast I've ever had and the syrup was super good as well. The only downsides were that the waiter kept forgetting everything and it was pricey. For one piece of French toast it was 16$. read more

The positives: friendly and attentive staff and very clean The cons: the food is just meh. Went here for happy hour and ordered artichoke dip and the burger. The dip was passable at best - the chips kept breaking as the dip was chunky and not creamy. The only nice thing about were the size of artichoke pieces. The side of salsa that came with it was a joke, which I'm pretty sure was Pace Picante from a jar. The burger was ok, but nothing that elevated it to great. The fries were disappointing and stale tasting. It was ok for $12 HH, but I would never pay full price for the burger at $19. read more

This restaurant sits in the heart of the Yards, directly across the street from the Nationals Stadium. The ambiance is very comfortable. There's indoor and outdoor patio seating. The menu was limited, however everyone in my party found something they enjoyed. My recommendation is the half chicken with a side of Mac & cheese. The punch for a cocktail. If you've been to Mi Vida, their sister restaurant and had the Punch de Lola, it is the same. Also comes in a pitcher. If it is a game night be warned there will be traffic and trouble parking. read more

WHO: Party of 4 WHAT: Brunch WHEN: Labor Day 2022 Terrible is an understatement. The hostess was unpleasant and appeared irritated that we were there for our reservation. Once seated, the waiter took at least 20 minutes to greet our table. Yet, was able to greet our neighboring table with minutes of them sitting down. Our drinks took 20 minutes to arrive. And often times, we had to consistently remind our server that we were still waiting for our drinks. Our server also came revisited our table and admitted that he forgot to write our order, yet we patently repeated the order. We figured, 'hey it's a holiday, let's be understanding.' Next, it took another 15 minutes to get a straw for our drinks. I had to leave my table, hustle around the bar to find at least one person to give us straws. I finally found a manager, and he was able to give us straws. Next, our [simple] food order took 45 minutes to arrive. Our appetizers came at the same time as our entrees, and the apps were cold. The bartender and server took a very long time to refill our drinks. But hey, it was "busy." THEN... once we paid [and tipped], we remained seated because we were waiting for our Uber. Note: the table next to ours received their food before our table, checked out and left. And we were curious about whether that table left a proper tip, given the subpar service. We looked at their receipt, and then sat back in our seats. Note: Our table is immediately next to that table. NEXT, the server asked if we took the tip off the table. We calmly explained that we did NOT take anything from the table. Minutes later, the manager approaches our table and DID NOT ASK, yet accused our table of stealing the neighboring table's tip!! Silly of us to think that the manger was greeting our table to ask about our overall experience. Instead, he approached our table, with an iPad to replay footage of what he thought was proof of stealing. Prior, to replaying the security footage, he said "we saw you take the tip from the table?" WE WERE FLOORED! We had already explained to the server that nothing was taken. Especially because we watched the busboy clean the table, and we watched another staff/lady snatch the receipt/tip--after she noticed us reading the receipt. Calmly, we explained how it may appear suspicious, but we DID NOT TAKE anything. Collectively, we explained that we did read their receipt but we are NOT thieves, yet we are professionals and would never risk our lives/careers over $26. NEXT, we our emptying our pockets/purses. Note: most of us are wearing halter-tops and skirts... attire with zero pockets. The manger then said, "you could've put the tip in your bra." By this time, we are offended and embarrassed because the entire restaurant is watching. At this time, there were 3 staff members towering over our table. We explained that we already paid and tipped our server, and rather than accuse us of stealing we wished they were this attentive when we needed assistance with our overall order/service/experience. They never apologized. We left humiliated, and in tears. :( I will be filing a lawsuit. I am extremely upset because I live in the neighborhood, I've frequented the Gatsby before, and the service was always passable, but this was by far the worst experience I've had at any DC restaurant. read more

I'm going to be completely honest, I felt very discriminated against. They couldn't accommodate my party because I had a baby stroller, they said they couldn't find us a table after we we're on the waiting list under said party w child. We're just sitting on the side waiting... people around us are getting seated, which is fine, but after a while it felt like man are we ever going to get seated. Talked to some lady at the front & told her like why is it so hard to find seating? She said it was because of my stroller. I've ate at numerous places, upscale restaurants, ones that weren't really family/baby friendly but was accommodating. I just didn't understand, I even cried because my feelings were so hurt by the service I received and how nonchalant the staff was being. read more

I was really looking forward to this restaurant, however Gatsby did not succeed my expectations. For starters, they were out of more than most would expect from a brunch menu. I came for the cinnamon rolls, they were out. Brunch meats? All out. French toast? All out. My sister ordered their all American breakfast which included eggs, potatoes, bacon and pancakes. No bacon was on her plate and they did not offer to comp an additional side. My Dutch baby pancake was not good either. Best thing we both liked was the Mac and cheese, which is not a typical brunch side. Overall, this establishment was very disappointing to say the least and I won't be back or recommend. Shoutout to our waitress Ariana - she was very sweet and the 1 star is for her. read more

Great food. Great spot. Right near the stadium and super convenient. Service and wings were outstanding.

Great food, so so service, and TERRIBLE MILKSHAKES. AWFUL MILKSHAKES so bad that it completely turned me off of the place. Think of receiving a glass of warm milk with a blob of whip cream in it and that'll pretty much sum up their milkshakes. $8 for a nasty warm glass of strawberry milk with a fat glob of whip cream in it. I should have just went to one of the many neighboring ice cream shops and gotten a real milkshake. Don't put milkshakes on the menu if you clearly don't know how to make them.
