The branzino was absolutely amazing, and the steak was cooked to perfection. We also ordered the oysters, which were delicious, but my personal favorite of the entire meal had to be the **deviled eggs!** They were definitely a standout and a must-try. The service was pretty good as well. We did have a small issue with our first drink, but the staff took it back and corrected it in no time, which we really appreciated. It was nice to see the issue handled quickly and professionally without taking away from our overall experience. Ambiance was great. Overall, St. Anselm delivered a delicious meal with great service and quality dishes. Between the perfectly cooked steak, flavorful branzino, fresh oysters, and those amazing deviled eggs, there was plenty to love. I would definitely recommend giving this spot a try if you're in DC!

Overall, this is a wonderful restaurant to dine at for brunch, lunch or dinner…read more Service - attentive, perfectly timed and pleasant to all walks of life. They make you feel welcomed from the minute you enter until you step out the front door to leave. Ambience - The restaurant is very clean and has an open concept in the dining area with each table still feeling private enough to have a good conversation with your dining companions. . Food - delicious with a wide variety with healthy options, my favorite part of this restaurant is that they serve breakfast all day along with lunch and dinner options and they have a good selection of tasty mocktails. It's a little on the pricier side but average for restaurants in the area. Except Ted's is wayyy better in all aspects. No doubt I'll be back soon.

Ordered the 1.) breakfast egg pita: - soft scrambled eggs, kashlaval, pali salad, and green shatta labne. 2.) peanut dalgona - Iced latte with peanut and coconut cold foam The breakfast pita had soft creamy eggs, sauce reminding you a herby chili paste, and the peppery bites from the arugula based salad. The takeaway is the soft pita bread housing everything inside. Solid alternative to your traditional breakfast Sandos. Peanut dalgona, was nice and creamy. Coffee felt from quality, where it has a clean caffeine kick. Peanut and coconut cold foam carries the flavor profiles of the full drink. Staff was supper friendly, helped guide us as we never been there before. Plenty of space inside. I read that this was the bigger location versus Georgetown. Open kitchen concept, so you can actually look into them make your food/bread. Was definitely a highlight to the trip, they were quick, if I ever stop by DC again, I'll make sure to come back

Next time I'm in DC I will return for this deliciousness.

What a special place in Washington, DC we have here…read more It is said a lot of members of congress dine here and I can understand why. Everything is delicious here!!! I started here for my birthday with some escargots, fantastic. Pro-Tip: Don't forget you can dip that terrific breadbasket they give you with some of the leftover garlic sauce from your escargots. We both decided to split the Beef Bourguignon. The most tender beef you can imagine, you do not need a knife to eat, and it was accompanied with buttery goodness in the creamy potatoes and some carrots for good measure. For dessert we ordered the vanilla bean crème brûlée. French dessert at a French restaurant was a no brainer. The top of the dessert packed a crispy, sugary, slightly burnt tasting palate cleanser that definitely will keep you a pick me up, who needs an ECT shock to get the heart going when you can take a scoop of pure sugary bliss! This is a must go to if you are in the DC area, but be sure to make reservations it fills up quickly. As always people SYOY!!!

The cheese puffs and artichokes were mediocre, and the macarons were fine but nothing memorable. The tarte flambée was slightly below average. It tasted mostly like cheese and fat, with none of the depth or balance I expected. The biggest disappointment was the steak au poivre. We ordered it medium rare, which our server specifically said was also the chef's recommendation, but it arrived somewhere between medium and medium well. More surprisingly, it was one of the toughest steaks I have ever eaten. At $49, that is unacceptable. The mashed potatoes were equally disappointing: bland, not buttery, and nothing like the rich French pommes purée I expected. We also ordered the carrots, but they never arrived. At least we were not charged for them. The crème brûlée was good, but a good crème brûlée could not redeem the meal. The service was attentive and polished. The restaurant was also nearly empty at 5 p.m. on a Friday, with only one other table occupied inside and a few people outside, which in hindsight may have been a warning sign. Beautiful room, decent service, deeply disappointing food. I would not return.

Great food, incredible service, and such a cute intimate brunch spot!…read more I went to Tiffany's Bar and Bistro in DC for Sunday brunch with my family, and we had such a good experience. This is a cute American-Mediterranean spot with an intimate atmosphere, beautiful decor, and not too many tables, which made it perfect for a relaxed family brunch. It wasn't overly loud or crowded, and the service was incredible from start to finish. I would definitely recommend making a reservation. I started with an espresso martini, and this was a 10/10 honestly, a thousand out of 10 . It was strong, delicious, and one of my favorite espresso martinis I've had recently. For an appetizer, we got the Sampler of All, which lets you try several of their spreads. We tried the chickpea tahini, Hripiti with roasted red pepper, Greek feta and fresh thyme, Greek yogurt with Persian cucumber and dill, and beet labneh with walnuts. My favorite was definitely the Hripiti the roasted red pepper and feta combination was so good! The sampler was definitely different from what I expected, but I liked being able to try several of the spreads. For my entrée, I had the short ribs and eggs, which I believe was an off-menu option. It was DELICIOUS. I actually took some home, and it reheated really well the next morning for breakfast, which is always a win! My family also ordered the shrimp and grits, Wagyu burger, pistachio French toast, and Ciftlik Breakfast with scramble and rose & cardamom biscuits. Everything we tried was really good, and there was a nice variety of sweet and savory options for everyone. Another thing I loved was that brunch was pretty reasonably priced for DC. We spent less than $50 per person, including drinks, which I thought was a great value considering the quality of the food, cocktails, service, and overall experience. The service was probably one of my favorite parts of the experience. Our server was very attentive and paid attention to the little details without being overbearing. You could tell they genuinely cared about making sure we were enjoying ourselves. And the decor is so cute! They have a little swing that we took pictures on, which was a fun touch and definitely added to the experience. Overall, Tiffany's was exactly the type of brunch spot I enjoy good food, strong cocktails, beautiful surroundings, great service, and an intimate atmosphere where you can actually sit, talk, and enjoy your meal. I'll definitely be back to try their dinner and happy hour. Definitely recommend checking out Tiffany's if you're looking for an American-Mediterranean spot in DC!

I feel so conflicted leaving this review, as I like to support local businesses and the service was…read moreabsolutely excellent, and the place was cute. The food, however, was unfortunately very mediocre. We came for brunch on a Sunday around 11 and the place seemed dead. Both my French toast & bacon were overcooked to almost burnt and didn't taste very good as a result; the French toast was also served without syrup, and when I asked for some, it caused some sort of commotion in the kitchen that we could hear. It sounded like the regular chef wasn't in yet or something & whoever was cooking kept telling the server there was no syrup until the server got fed up & got it himself. Just bizarre. I'm rounding up to 3 stars because I loved our server, a mature gentleman who was funny & did an excellent job, but the food missed the mark.

We have been here a couple of times when my husband is on a Clinical Congress in D.C. Yesterday's dinner was a disappointment. The Rib eye steak was not the quality we expected. It was too fatty not marbled. Service: Our waiter was great. He was attentive and polite. Our concern was the receptionist or the management. When we dine at Ebbit Grill, we were there for the ambiance. Yesterday, we walked in to dine without a reservation and waited 1 hour and 15 minutes to be seated. To our surprise we were taken to the courtyard seating outside!! There were vacant tables available for 2 in the main dining as we walked by. We asked if we can be seated in the main dining but they refused because we didn't have a reservation and were told we had to wait another 30 minutes!!! Eating outside in the courtyard wasn't what we expected. We were there for the experience and expressed this to them but to no avail. If they had told us upfront that we had to wait 2 hours to be seated in the main dining room, then we would had left and chose another restaurant. Perhaps, next time you're busy, consider mentioning that customers may be seated outside. We were extremely disappointed at how they handled this and left a bad taste in our mouths (no pun intended)for the restaurant. Seating outside lost its appeal and charm. Ambiance: loud!!
