Recommended by a store down the street and so glad. Everything was perfect. We went at lunch time and it was excellent.

Delicious salmon cake burger, and gluten free bread options! Would definitely recommend this place.

I would say I really enjoyed the service. The waiters we constantly checking in and seeing if I need anything. The food was pretty good just small portions. read more

Breathtakingly polite and invested in their customers, whether you're a regular or just passing though. Drinks are on point and the food is delicious. read more

Peacock Cafe - Wine Bars Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Awesome place. Amazing food, great wine. But above all else is the friendly and welcoming hospitality. One of my DC favorites.

Pleasantly surprised with this place. Venue: it's off Wisconsin street in Georgetown, so it's close to the Main Street but not as busy and crowded and the street is busy but nothing too overwhelming. The location is off site enough where the restaurant is not super crowded and people are on top of each other. They have indoor and out door seating. We made reservations for outdoor seating. They may have forgotten, but once we reminded them, they quickly got us a table outside. Very friendly staff. Outdoor seating was very nice umbrellas to shade from sun. Always makes outdoor seating more enjoyable. Food was VERY good! Everyone was delighted. The eggs Benedict orders were cooked perfectly. (That's actually very hard to do). My wife got the bagels and smoked salmon. Everything seemed to very high quality ingredients, however the bagel seemed store bought right out the freezer section. The peacock fries were great. Thin cut, well cooked. I am glad that was a brunch side option. The side fruit salad was actually a solid array of fruits and not just melon filler a grape and strawberry, like most other places. Cocktails were also worth trying. I had the peacock iced coffee. The prices were better than expected for the Georgetown area. Drinks were $10-13, food was $14-19 for brunch menu. Such a great brunch outting. read more

Nice place with varied menu for lunch, and good service. Did not try any of the desserts.

Food as always is wonderful. We weren't allowed to sit where we wanted, later saw others seated there. Young women patrons were very loud and were obviously drunk. Probably won't be back soon. read more

We went for brunch on Sunday 22 2023 around 2 pm. Crowded, Extremely high decibel range.. Brunch food OK, not exceptional. My smoked salmon omelet, big but with little stuffing of salmon tasting like a plain omelet. On the side, the fried potatoes were mushy and almost cold. And the appealing pictures of peacocks, giving some style to the place, and featured on the web, are no longer there. Replaced by small prints. People who like a normal decibel level, and some elegance in the decor, should go elsewhere. Nice hostess but ambiance suited for rowdy teenagers. read more

Love the service and the food at this place! The owners are friendly, setting a tone of warm and welcoming dining for all including delicious food. read more

Went here before heading to the Kennedy Center. The service was fantastic where the staff checked in on us and provided us info on the food. It helped that the place was not busy around 5 pm. My boyfriend had the lobster risotto and was rich in butter, delicious. I had the albaloo polo glazed chicken. It was ok, I actually enjoyed the rice a lot but the risotto was definitely tastier. For dessert we had a mint based coffee with some type of liquor. It was mintier than expected but still good. The chocolate a la mode dessert was rich and I enjoyed the strawberries! read more

We come here often for brunch and dinner. They have plenty of outdoor dining and the staff is so friendly. I would recommend making a reservation if possible. We have ordered take out but prefer dining in (outside). read more

Nice lunch spot in Georgetown! I got a BLT sandwich which was good, I really liked the way the bacon was cooked. Good service and fair prices for the nice ambiance. read more

Food was 3/5. Very basic. I think this restaurant is a comfort to many and that's why it's so popular. No frills, and nothing to write home about. read more

OMG, nice little discovery! We almost didn't eat there because it was colder than expected, but the manager (?) was SO accommodating! Not to mention the menu drew us into this establishment. My friend, who is an avid diner in DC, had never been here and was in shock when she learned this gem had been there for 30 years! A couple approached us while we were waiting to ask how the food was. We stated it was our first time but were intrigued by the menu. After we ate, we all shared food cards and everyone was very happy with their meals. I'm SURE my friend will be back. I unfortunately am leaving the area so might not make it back. read more

asked to be seated outside and the hostess stated it would be an hour wait for outside. The group behind us with no reservation was seated immediately outside among 3 other open tables which were open for the duration of our meal. disappointed in the service. Food is mediocre for the price. I got the peacock eggs Chesapeake, which having the restaurants name you'd think it would be a dish they put a lot of effort into. It came with two poached eggs on top of toast with specks of crab meat between the two. The crab meat was very small, and it was cold. Will not be returning. The wait staff was super friendly and attentive. They were great. read more

We came for New Year's Eve and it was FANTASTIC. They had a prix fix menu with plenty of options that suits every type of eater (I'm an adventurous eater and my boyfriend is more of a cheeseburger type of guy). I got the tuna tartar to start and the beef Wellington and my boyfriend got the fig and Gorgonzola brioche and the duck. Every thing was cooked perfectly and the flavor combinations between them blew our minds. I feel bad for my boyfriend because I couldn't keep my hands away from his fig and Gorgonzola brioche. The service was also great. They were efficient and so friendly and welcoming. They allow dogs outside and even brought us a water bowl for our dog which is rare for Georgetown. We can't wait to visit again! read more

So, it was a terrible day (funeral), but this place was AMAZING. Food was terrific. Service was great. Nice place for parents to take out Georgetown students. Affordable (well, more affordable than North Jersey/NY), and an all around GREAT experience! read more

Visited The Peacock cafe while in dc due to the high ratings and prefixed menu option. I was elated to visit and would return for a second try due to other experiences with different items. It was easy to locate and within the very popular Gerogetown neighborhood. It had ample seating both indoors and outside. The ambiance was great, and the music was modern. The servers were attentive and provided a wonderful experience from start to finish. However, when our food arrived, we were excited because everything looked so appetizing. The tomatoe and pistachio soups were good and were a nice starter. I then ordered my rose pasta, which was recommended by diners before. I took my first bite and was disappointed in the lack of flavor in my pasta. The temperature was cool, which is less than ideal when eating a hot dish. The portions were great and seemed to be filling, but the lack of flavor stopped me from indulging. The chicken was dry and barely chewable. After my third cold bite, I asked for more sauce to warm up my pasta and an attempt to add more flavor, but it only added to my dissatisfaction due to the cool temperature of the additional sauce. However, due to the ratings, I'll avoid the rose sauce pasta and opt for another dish to give them a second try. I'll update my review once that time comes. I do recommend this establishment as other items sounded like great tries. My rating reflects the high-quality service with removed stars for both the lamb and pasta that lacked flavor. read more

I went with some friends earlier today for brunch and it was a bustling place. The clientele was a mix of students and professionals, but we were able to be seated pretty quickly without a reservation. Not sure about the parking situation because we walked, but there seemed to be a garage right next to it. There were three unisex bathrooms (which I am definitely a fan of). - Now to the food. My friends ordered sandwiches while I ordered the Doctors Ultimate Eggs. I really wanted to try crab meat because I had never had it in the DC area, but I really think this dish just fell flat. There was no taste in the egg saffron tomato omelette (honestly didn't taste any tomatoes) and the crab meat on top really didn't complement the omelette. My friend had the salmon omelette on a previous occasion and raves about it, so I really think I just chose the wrong dish on the menu. The worst part for me was that it was the most expensive out of our dishes ($20 dollar range compared to $15) and I was the one who enjoyed it the least. I think there are other great dishes there, I just could not see myself going back after having that big of a dish letdown. But I will say it did look amazing. - Also, the service wasn't necessarily bad, but it was tough to get a waiters attention because they were rarely by. It was a busy day so it makes sense, but there were times we were just waiting for the waiter (getting the check, ordering) longer than usual. read more

I loved this cute little place! The servers were so friendly and worked with needs I had for our reservations. The give a phone call the day before to confirm all details which is a nice touch for service. The decor inside is cute and colorful just like their name. I had an salmon omelet and it was delicious! I switched out the potatoes for spinach and it was perfect. On the menu they have fresh juice and a friend had some and loved it so I am excited to try it soon. All in all great experience and I will be back! read more

Peacock Cafe - Smoked salmon omelet - Wine Bars Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

I really really enjoyed this place. It's like you take a step back into the 1970s, surrounded by newly wealthy coke sniffers who love to dine out before hitting up the latest disco. It's a tiny bit bizarre but romantic and welcoming. They had a kids menu so I was surprised and pleased since I went with my daughter. The host was very friendly and not overly faux-friendly. We were treated like they were happy to have us visit. My drink was delicious and the food was ready quickly. It arrived to our table piping hot, flavorful with many different but blended tastes. My fish was crispy and flaky, cooked to perfection. I liked it so much that even though the ambience was of a different era, I'd definitely go back to try more of their menu. A solid and unpretentious choice for an uppity neighborhood. read more

This place was the most covid conscious place I've ever been to! So I really appreciated that! There was an outdoor patio, which is always nice. Everyone who worked there was super nice and helpful! Food was fancy !! read more

The staff at this cafe was so kind and accommodating and our waiter was extremely knowledgeable of the menu. The menu itself on the smaller side but it had some fantastic options, and everyone in my party of 5 was so happy with what we got. I got the all american breakfast-- eggs, potatoes and bacon. The portions were also very big. We sat outside under umbrellas because it was a beautiful day outside, but the interior of the cafe looked very clean. I am definitely returning here the next time I'm in Georgetown, it was a really nice experience all around. read more

Went for brunch -- I'd recommend going on the earlier side, as it gets pretty busy. We were greeted by several people when we came in; the service was consistently good and everyone was very nice. Had the Eggs Benedict, which has been reviewed here before -- it may have been the best benedict I've ever had. I also recommend having the sweet potato side -- it's not sweet potato fries, but fire roasted sweet potato slices. Loved it! I do agree with others that it feels a bit overpriced -- but then again? #DC #Georgetown. But if you're up for a little splurge, you won't be disappointed. read more

Peacocks Eggs Chesapeake - poached organic eggs with lump crabmeat topped with hollandaise sauce & peacock fries. $18.50. The peacock fries were very good. "Doctor's Ultimate Eggs" - Open-face Omelet of egg whites and saffron stewed tomatoes, Jumbo lump crabmeat, topped with smoked salmon and caviar. $22.50. This was more like a frittata. There was no caviar and one small slice of smoked salmon. The omelette itself barely had tomato and the crab, which was cooked into the egg, was was dry. Blueberry Island Smoothie - blueberries, pineapple, banana and coconut water. $6.95. The menu informs that it is blended with ice, and you can tell. It was not bad, but not that good either. Black coffee - $4. Mimosa - $9.50. The mimosa tasted watered down and like it was made from boxed orange juice. read more

Food: Fantastic! I went for the eggs Benedict with salmon with a side of chicken sausage. Food is amazing. Service: amazing! So kind and there's constantly cleaners coming to pick up your used utensils, plates & cups. Ambiance: very European. Very huge spot for tourists but as a local, it's always a go-to for brunch! read more

I came here on a Saturday morning for brunch, super grateful that my sister made reservations because it was pretty packed. If the weather was warmer, I wish we were able to sit outside so I definitely want to come back and try that out! I ordered the The All American and my friend ordered the Omelet of Egg White. The All American comes with eggs, potatoes and your choice of bacon, ham or chicken sausage. I had scrambled eggs and I picked the chicken sausage. This is a pretty standard breakfast meal, but they excel with the quantity of food and their service here. The Omelet of Egg White comes with spinach, peppers, black bean relish and an assortment of fruit. I know this was meant to be a healthy option on the menu, but I think it was really bland. I wish they could've used more seasoning. Overall I had a very positive experience, the staff is on point with checking on their tables, my drink was always full :) read more

Peacock Cafe - Muscles seasoned very well. - Wine Bars Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

3.5 stars for a good Georgetown restaurant. My wife and I were looking to grab a bite at a dog-friendly place the other night and came across Peacock Cafe. Located on Prospect Street between Mai Thai and Cafe Milano, Peacock is more of a general American restaurant than it is a cafe. The tables on the outside (aside from being dog friendly) are situated in a nice area with umbrellas to help keep out the sun. After being seated, our waitress came over with our menus and some water. She was generally fairly pleasant and worked well with another server to refill our drinks (although it did take a little while to get the check). I decided to order a beer (decent collection here) as we looked over the menu. While my wife decided to Dinner Prix Fix Menu, I decided to try out the Mahi Ahi Torsh-o Shirin. While I don't know what those words mean, the description pretty much made it out to be sweet and sour fish with various fun fruits and nuts on top. Our food came out in a decent amount of time and tasted pretty good (although my dish may not be for everyone). An added perk for me was, due to the fact that the first two courses of my wife's meal were fairly large, I got to eat most of the dessert course...a chocolate lava cake with vanilla ice cream on top! While I'm not sure if this was the most healthy or mature meal, I sure did enjoy it. Overall, Peacock Cafe provided us a fairly good dining experience. While nothing about it blew us away in particular, the outdoor seating and tasty food made for a pleasant evening. read more

Five star service and location is excellent. Decor is nice and has a great ambience to the place. The food was decent. I ordered the peacock eggs Benedict with him, my brother orders a peacock eggs Benedict with smoked salmon and my wife ordered the French toast. I would say French toast was 5/5. The eggs Benedict were about a 3/5. They were very small portions and just average as far as flavor. Overall, recommend if you're in the area. Yeah read more

The perfect breakfast spot in Georgetown! Amazing food and service with a warm and cozy ambiance. We came here both days we were visiting down and I wish we had one more so we could come back for breakfast - highly recommend. read more

We were in Georgetown trying to find a quick bite to eat. I called on a rainy Friday night to see if they had a table. Ramone (manager) was so sweet on the phone and told us there was a table and welcomed us warmly minutes later. He was running a tight ship with service, checked in with us several times, and the food was good. Would have given 5 stars but both my steak and my kids cheeseburger were rarer than we'd asked for. Our waitress was the most soft spoken, attentive, young lady named Natalie (cutest dimples ever). The atmosphere was busy but not too loud. Would def go back! read more

the service was very attentive and the location/environment is cute. i ordered steak and eggs, my steak was overdone but i'd prefer that to underdone and it was pretty tasty so all good. portions were a good size- not way too big or too small. i'd recommend! read more
