RESTAURANT WEEK ONLY. I can't comment on day to day dining here. I can say I do highly recommend for restaurant week. They worked hard to accommodate allergy concerns and everyone enjoyed their food. They had a good selection of options. Excellent service. The churro is absolutely incredible! Classy atmosphere inside. read more

Food score: 4. The branzino is great, the truffle fries are what truffle fries should be. The ramen noodle came in with separate broth and noodle, so you pull broth yourself to the noodle. Cool presentation but the broth needs to be hotter and taste a bit blend (for someone likes blend). The cocktail drinking menu, however, is quite impressive. It is a little booklet listed and drew out all the detail ingredients go into the little glass! Ambiance 4 As it is inside Ritz Carlton, you can expect that it is a pretty nice place with a bit of luxury feel, but lack of wow effect for a Ritz. It is July, perfect seasons for all the flowers, but there is an empty flower bed outside the window. Not the best view. There is a big gathering/conference thing going on, so some old friends were very happy seeing each other and were a bit too excited and loud. I hope that they could have gently reminded the guests as shouting and laughing uncontrollably have effects on other guests' dining experiences. Service: 4 It is fine for Ritz, nothing stand out. Overall: you may stop by for a drink or you are nearby, but no reasons to venture out here. read more

This was my first time trying the saga and it was fantastic. I came in for a cocktail and quick bite so I tried the scallop entree and carrots. The dishes were flavorful and just the right size to share. The space is lovely and service was great. read more

Out of the Seven Reasons Restaurant Group (I think it's what it's called), I find the Saga to be my favorite. It's quite shocking to see how empty it was when I made it for my reservation through Bilt. I got their tasting menu for $65/person and thoroughly enjoyed all of my dishes. I also thought the service was pretty fast and kind. My standout dish was the cheesecake. It's a shame that the place was empty despite how clean and modern the place looks. I will have to recommend this place to everyone who comes to visit DC! read more

I came here this summer on a Monday night to celebrate a birthday and it wasn't crowded at all and very beautiful cozy space. We parked in the hotel garage parking, alittle hard to locate but between the two buildings down an alley. Nonetheless, once we got to the restaurant the waiter took great care of us, described the menu and recommendations. At our table we had the GAMBAS AL AJILLO, pork chop entree, PATATA BRAVA OUR STYLE, and the New York strip, and a few cocktails. Everything was super delightful and tasty! We even got some dessert, which rounded out our visit. We will definitely be back! read more

I enjoyed the food here and the way it was presented. The Manhattan and New Fashioned cocktails were good. The Gambas al ajillo was flavorful and tasty. The arroz amarillo came with duck confit, pan seared rice cake, mushrooms, radishes and baby tomatoes. I thought the duck was really good and so were the flavors. The arroz rojo came with bomba rice, prawns, lobster, mussels, and pearl onions. This was also good but I thought it was a bit salty. The New York strip was decent but it wasn't particularly interesting like the other dishes. It came with potatoes, shishito peppers and cremini mushrooms. The Branzino was good. For dessert, I thought the crema catalana had a cool presentation but I liked the chocolate tart better. Overall, the food here was delicious and visually appealing. The service was great and I liked the modern vibe of the restaurant. read more

We visited in late January during Restaurant Week. The restaurant was buzzing in the early evening, which only increased as night fell. Staff was very welcoming and sat us at a table for two. We order our first and second courses. I and my companion had eggplant hummus (delicious). It was smooth and served with flat (think no yeast) crackers. Perfectly light if you want to enjoy multiple courses. For my main I had the seafood paella. Given the eggplant hummus was really good, I was expected to be blown away. Unfortunately, I was not. The paella didn't have any one flavor stand out. The rice also felt different, so perhaps that also had something to do with it. My companion had the Branzino filet and that was served on a bed of red fumet, the color presumably from red bell peppers. That was quite tasty. For my dessert I had the crema catalana sorbet, which was light and full of flavor that felt very tropical. Overall, this was a good experience but I was not necessarily blown away. I believe they have sister restaurants, so I would opt to branch out before returning to The Saga. read more

Came here for my mom's birthday dinner and it was amazing. The restaurant is cozy and welcoming. Ephrata, our server, was so helpful and sweet. When the restaurant was out of the tomahawk, she was able to source one from the hotel so we could still have it. The drinks were amazing and the mocktails were tasty. We also had the paella - and while there was one strong spice in it we couldn't really identify - everything was awesome. Definitely would come back. read more

I would say that the service was extremely good. That's why I give it three stars. I got the fluffy margarita, which is super Duper good that was probably my favorite thing and then we got the croquet balls which I appreciated that they were actually vegetarian because usually they have some sort of meat in them . I was super disappointed by paella I felt like the quantity was sparse and it was not as good as it was hoping it would be. They were trying to almost be too high-end with it. Also, the dessert menu was not what it was hoping. Therefore, it didn't get that. The ambience was super high end. It is in the Ritz Carlton! read more

Very nice neighborhood spot, would go back. Tried brunch today and was pleased with the experience all around. Service was the highlight, very attentive, extremely professional. The food was quite good, consistent with a fine dining standard. The waffles were nice, though a bit crispy for my taste - I prefer Belgian waffles that are fluffy and cake-like, tho ymmv. The taqueno appetizer was tasty. My friend thought the burger was a little dry. The fries were good, neither super-crispy nor super-soft; they seem to be appealing to the middle. I ordered an egg as a side and it was very well-executed; they put extra effort into even something simple and it was quite flavorful as a result. The patio is lovely and highly recommended. A perfect setting for a calm and tasty weekend meal! read more

Inside the Ritz-Carlton in West End, The Saga is a full restaurant that combines flavors from Spain, Central America, and South America. Meeting a friend for dinner at 7:30 p.m., here's our experience. 1) Food: The menu is large and to feed us both, we each got an appetizer, main, and dessert. I ordered the croquettes of the day, the scallops, and the torta de Santiago. The croquettes come in two kinds that change daily- six in total. The winner of the meal was the scallops. They were cooked well and the flavors of the bacon and peas worked well. The cake was fancy, but having hiked the Camino de Santiago, it was NOTHING like the cake found on the hike. 2) Drinks: Wines reign on the menu, but a generous cocktail list comes with drawings. The fluffy margarita and red sangria were unique and tasty if you have a sweet tooth. 3) Service: It was spot on- friendly and attentive. 4) Space: It's in a hotel so it's a little more sterile, but I like that look. It's a great place to go with work friends. 5) Neighborhood: Street parking is usually easier to find in this part of town compared to Georgetown and Dupont Circle. read more

I definitely chose a very busy evening to dine at Saga by Seven Reasons -- it was Valentine's Day. And understandably because they knew that they had a lot of reservations, there were several calls made to confirm reservations and also remind customers of the 90 min time-limit. This unfortunately was not exercised day of; which I guess is a good and bad thing, depending on who you ask . Reservations were all 30-40 mins behind, which as you can imagine, left a lot of people hungry and not best pleased. After we were finally seated, I quickly forgot about the long wait because the service, food and ambiance was absolutely fantastic! I would expect nothing less from a restaurant under Chef Enrique Limardo's culinary talents. The Valentine's Day menu showcased their most popular items from the dinner menu... Branzino Filet, Roasted Lamb Loin, Roasted Baby Carrots and their infamous Spicy Devilled Churros. The cocktail menu had a good number of options with different components from various liquor bases. I tend to lean towards cocktails that are more boozy or botanical, and throughly enjoyed the two cocktails I tried. One of which was 'Somewhere In Manhattan'. I was absolutely amazed by all the flavours with the Roasted Baby Carrots! I literally will make sure to order that the next time I visit... If you're a fan of habanero and labne -- You've GOT to try it !! read more

We went here for the first time for a Valentine's Day dinner. It is located next to the Ritz- Carlton and across the street from the fire station. There is public parking connected to the hotel and street parking as well. The restaurant was pretty packed, and all reservations were behind. However, the service was immaculate. The staff did come around to apologize, and after a while, they started to hand out complimentary champagne and roses for the ladies. The restaurant has an intimate feel, with low casting music. We were finally shown to our seats. Nice window seating. The menu was a fixed menu for Valentine's Day. Drinks 2x The Saga for my date Fluffy Margarita for me Food First: 5/5 Patatas Bravas Roasted Baby Carrots Second: 3.5/5 Arroz Amarillo Arroz Morado Third: 2/5 Roasted Lamb Loin Branzino filet a la Veracruzana Desserts: 4/5 Carajillo Flan Spicy Deviled Churros Overall, the experience was beautiful 3.5/5. The wait, due to it being v day , was long. However, the staff understood and tried their best to accommodate everyone, as best to my knowledge. They have coat check-in and restrooms on the right of the entrance. Cons: Don't come on a night that is a holiday or something of an event. If so, reserve early because that wait will drive you away. Pros: the service! The staff is prepared as best as they can for such days. read more

KenScale: 7.5/10 Visit: July 2023 Enrique Limardo is at the moment one of the busiest chefs in DC, opening restaurants all around the city in the last several years. Imperfecto, where chef Enrique used to personally cook the multi-course tasting menu himself at the degustation counter table on Friday and Saturday, is the crown jewel and absolutely a worthy destination to explore his Latin American-accented cooking at its best and other places that my wife Jun and I had been to like Seven Reasons and its Joy sister restaurant in Chevy Chase also had delicious dishes. Last year, chef Enrique went in a slightly different direction from his existing restaurants and decided to open a modern Spanish restaurant inside the Ritz-Carlton. We finally got to visit The Saga a few months after its opening, and it was somewhat a challenging experience to quite pinpoint. What would Spanish food with Latin American twist look like? The playful display of the dishes with chef Enrique's touch immediately caught our attention at first. For its version of pan con tomate, The Saga has multiple layers of different kinds of tomatoes on top of house-made sourdough (you can also add jamon ibérico on top for extra charges). For "not traditional" patata brava, you get to try a deconstructed version with thin circular layers of potatoes over romesco sauce. The popular gambas al ajillo also gets a new Latin American treatment with gulf shrimps from Mexico and dried Calabrian peppers. The starter dishes Jun and I shared together were mostly solid, save for perhaps croquetas (one with cheese and another with cod instead) which I thought were surprisingly pedestrian. I just wish the restaurant brought these dishes one at a time instead of bringing them altogether; by the time we were more or less done with one dish and ready to move onto the next, the temperature of the latter was already past its optimal level. Perhaps a bit of a kink in the execution that the kitchen should fix going forward? For the main dish, we shared arroz Amarillo with duck confit, which was a rather unusual food item (instead of, say, seafood or pork) for a Spanish rice dish, but turned out to the right choice. Jun was very appreciative of the rustic flavor of the duck confit that blended very nicely with baby radishes, mushrooms and cherry tomatoes as well as bomba rice. If there is one dish at The Saga you absolutely must order, the arroz Amarillo gets our vote of confidence. The desserts at The Saga could also use some work. The chocolate mousse with EVOO caviar was just OK, and we were surprised that the porcini churros with chocolate sauce on the side didn't have quite the crispy texture we were expecting. The Saga's dining room is relatively spacious so you probably won't have much trouble getting a table without advance reservations so long as you avoid prime time dinner (we went in for early dinner and by the time we were finished, the restaurant quickly filled up). The bright, upscale décor of the dining space makes the restaurant a good option for casual dinners with friends and family in a fun setting. The Spain-focused wine list is another strength at The Saga; unlike other Spanish restaurants that typically skew heavily toward Rioja, I was impressed with the breadth of the diverse regions in the country that the wine list covered. The Saga is a solid dining destination, but knowing what chef Enrique can do at his best, I couldn't help escape the feeling that the restaurant wasn't quite up to the high standard that he set at other restaurants. More importantly, it didn't quite feel like an establishment with chef Enrique's imprint all over it. Perhaps that is the limitation of a hotel restaurant and perhaps the chef wasn't as involved in this project as his other flagship places. In any event, Jun and I will wait and see how The Saga evolves before we decide on another visit. read more

My friend brought me here for my birthday and everything was absolutely perfect! The staff was very nice and attentive and really made this experience a delight. We started off with drinks, a couple of cocktails, which were recommended by our server. The ambiance is elegant and romantic. I dressed up a bit for the occasion but I don't think it's necessary. I also saw folks at the bar having a glass of wine, so definitely elegant but approachable. We had the Gazpacho, a nice way to prime our experience into the rest of the meal. Very light and tasty! The Octopus Carpaccio was definitely a favorite. It's super thinly sliced pieces of octopus with a delicious sauce. I really enjoyed it. Next we has the Gambas Al Ajillo, the Arroz Amarillo which includes duck, and for protein we had the lamb shank with guava. All of those were a 10/10! The arroz Amarillo was very savory and flavorful and the duck was moist and cooked so well, seasoned, and just delicious. I would go back for the rice itself. The lamb shank is very good and was the heavier part of the meal as it was also served with a potato and sweet potato gratin. We were so stuffed but it was SO good. This was more than enough food for two people but we enjoyed it all. read more

Recently went to The Saga for the first time and I can honestly say I had a top notch experience. We went on a Wednesday evening and as a result, it wasn't crowded at all. I loved the minimalistic and contemporary design. The ambiance helped enhance the entire culinary experience. The service was top notch!! Our server was knowledgeable, extremely attentive and really personable. At times when I didn't know what to order, he pointed me in the right direction. The New Fashioned cocktails were so good, I had 2. We then received a complimentary savory cocktail which includes butternut squash, coconut and ginger which was absolutely delicious. Next we had the mofongo and cheese croquettes which bursted with flavor. For my dinner, I had the branzino and arroz amarillo. The combination of both dishes together was a culinary masterpiece. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I finished off the evening with the It's Not Crema Catalana dessert which included crema catalana foam, tomate de árbol ice cream, orange-hibiscus couli, honey comb and cotton candy. It was such an interesting combination but all the flavors complemented each other so well. The Saga is another gem to add to my list of restaurants I would love to revisit again. Keep in mind there is 22% gratuity that is automatically included, but in my opinion it is well worth it! read more

This restaurant is collocated within the Ritz and has an open and high end ambiance. It was a very quiet Monday evening so we got the full attention of the staff who were kind and attentive. There is an automatic 22% gratuity added to your bill regardless of party size but the service was still excellent. The cocktail list was fun with a variety of fun takes on classic drinks, I loved my fluffy margarita with a foam top and peach flavors with a slight clove taste. I also ordered the make a wish which was a gin wine spritzer, it had basil and rosemary but it mainly had a light fruity vanilla taste. We ordered the eggplant hummus which was really nice and had an unexpected citrus flavor which I loved. I'm a vegetarian so my entree option was the purple rice dish, it was a huge portion and very simple and flavorful. I loved the seasoning and fava beans and that the rice was a bit crispy on the pan. The dessert was also amazing. They had about 3 vegetarian appetizers and one entree option. I'd definitely come back if they rotate in another vegetarian entree option to share or for drinks/desserts when I'm in the neighborhood. read more

The service was amazing! Miguel brought the Spanish vibe that we needed to feel immersed into the cuisine! The decorations and furniture was nice. It gave an elegant appeal! The appetizers were different. The croquettes were half cheese half mafugo! We also got the gambas which were really good. Could have been cooked a little less for a better shrimp texture. The arroz and the Brazino was just okay. There wasn't anything too special about this place that I would say like you have to go for the entrees. The croissant ice cream literally was vanilla with a croissant mixed it and BUT THE PEAR,lemon, blueberry sorbet was killer!!! Best thing of the meal for sure! Ask for two scoops of the sorbet for sure! read more

The Saga is attached to the Ritz Carlton Hotel, and it is serving fancy, upscale dining vibes. We came here on a Friday night for a meal with a friend. The waiter was in training, so he was being followed by an experienced waiter who helped him from time to time. Our new server did a great job. The service was very attentive. However, they did kind of push for us to order all of our food at once and not let us keep a menu at the table. They did forget one of the things we ordered, but we reminded them, and it came out promptly. We love a food experience but we're surprised at how interactive and experimental this dinner ended up being. For the tomato toast, they have you spritz your tongue with a little tomato water to freshen your palate before the bite. The tomato dish ended up being our favorite! The patatas bravas were also unique because it was a large spiral of potato. The food in general was scrumptious, and we were very pleased. The desserts were also top notch. The Torrija carebena was a winner. The cocktails here were also great! I lived the mezcal cocktail. The presentation was lovely. I would definitely come back here again, and I would recommend checking out this restaurant. It is pricey but very high quality dining. read more

We dined on a Saturday night and surprisingly not every table was occupied. The restaurant was about 2/3 full the entire night with the bar completely unoccupied. The ambiance is lovely with easy but fun music. The food is fantastic! We as a group agreed it was better than Seven Reasons. Some of the portions are small so you do have to order a couple servings, but our server was kind enough to alert us beforehand. Our server was attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. Our selections ended up swinging more towards the side of seafood. Mussels, gambas al ajillo, all delicious. For arroz, we tried the verde. Very reminiscent of Seven Reasons. The "paella" style was lacking the crisp at the bottom but still cooked well. The seafood in the arroz verde was a bit fishy, which was surprising given all the other wonderful dishes. We tried the pig for principales and this was everyone's favorite dish - the flavors mingled so well and the pork was tender. We also tried the churros for dessert which was a nice way to end the night. The service staff needs some more training - one of the ladies who was responsible for our table spoke very little English - we had to tell her 4x there were 4 of us and to not remove any tableware. She also spilled quite a bit of water refilling our glasses. Overall we would be back, food is delicious! read more

The food is actually quite good. It's the only restaurant in our hotel that we tried. The chicken noodle soup is made fresh. The burgers, salads, steak all didn't taste like bar food (we thought it would), it tasted like a sit down dinner. We were the only table so the food came quickly, our server was kind and the manager even came out to say hello. Just know that they added a 22% gratuity automatically to your bill. I normally tip 20% unless your service is really awful, in which case I'd go down to 15 or 18% and sometimes more (25% depending on service of course). But I thought 22% was bold when you want to survive in a restaurant industry. We stayed 4 nights and the place was either empty or half empty every day. read more

The Saga is the newest venture by Seven Restaurant Group, the group behind Seven Reasons. I'm a big fan of Seven Reasons, so when I heard about The Saga, I immediately had to book it for Mother's Day lunch. Unfortunately, the experience left me very disappointed. We had a lunch reservation and were promptly seated. Our waiter gave us menus and only told us "the first page is tapas and tapas sized." No further explanations of the menu. I asked her how many dishes she recommended we order to share between 2 people. She recommended 4 tapas, a rice dish, and a meat dish. We ended up only getting 2 tapas and a rice and were stuffed. My mom got a cocktail and it was great. Not too sweet and well-balanced. For $17 - $20 per cocktail, it met expectations. For the tapas, we got the steak tartare and the oxtail and calamari sanguche. The dishes were both presented beautifully. At first bite, both dishes were decent, but the saltiness of both dishes quickly set in. I was chugging water by the end of the course. I liked the sanguche better than the steak tartare though. The tartare was standard, but in addition to being too salty, it was also very heavy on the mustard. In between courses, they cleared the table to replace the dishes and took away our waters even though my mom asked them not to. They replaced our lunch ware, but did not replace our waters until we asked. For the main, we got the arroz negro. Again, it was presented beautifully, but was overly salty. I ended up not eating much. The arroz was a small portion and was presented with a ginormous spatula that made it awkward to serve, especially since you're not supposed to touch the hot plate. The waiter did not automatically refill our waters and had to be asked over each time. I also watched her pour cold sparkling water taken from an ice bucket for another table and the bottle of San Pellegrino was dripping on the table. Instead of wrapping the bottle to prevent dripping, she just continued to pour as it dripped all over. For a restaurant that's located inside the Ritz Carlton, this is not the level of service that I expected. The Saga also only has 2 single-person bathrooms for the entire restaurant, so naturally, there was a long wait to use the restroom. The bathrooms are genderless and one was wheelchair accessible. At least one of the restrooms was out of hand soap and the toilet paper holder was broken. The bill: Sangria Blanca - $17 Steak Tartare - $26 Oxtail and Calamari Sanguche - $26 Arroz Negro - $65 A 22% service charge is automatically applied. Total was $179.83 The price is on brand for Seven Restaurant Group & Ritz Carlton, but for the quality of food and service, it was not worth it at all. It's disappointing considering Seven Restaurant Group's other restaurants are great. read more

I visited TheSaga for drinks and a meal before a show at the Kennedy Center after learning about it from a bartender while at Seven Reasons. It was an early Wednesday night so there was plenty of seats at the bar and fairly quiet. I had the Latin Mystery cocktail first which was both smoky and spicy and my friend got the red wine sangria which she enjoyed. After settling in, we opted to order the non traditional patava brava, octopus carpaccio, and arroz verde. The final touch for the arroz verde was a drizzle of olive oil that added to the experience and flavor. Everything was so delicious and tasty!! The food was fresh and seasoned/cooked to perfection. For dessert we got the churros, and as someone who regularly orders churros these were some of the best ones I've ever had! There is more chocolate (also so delicious) than churros that may have been finished with a spoon haha. The bar was good but giving it 4 out of 5 stars since I can't fully rate the overall service. I will definitely be back for the full dining experience to try another arroz and get the churros again! Highly recommend. read more

Run, do not walk, for the Steak Tartare and the Patatas Bravas. These two dishes were exceptional! But everything was good. It's hard to justify a $75 overly salted rice dish, but I'd try it again. My friends also ordered the Octopus Carpaccio, the Oxtail Sanguche, the croquettes and the garlic shrimp. The shrimp came highly recommended, which is always a trap, and as is normal, it did not live up to the hype. The service was good, very friendly, and fairly attentive. The place is cute. Our table had subway tile top that I just loved, and it was purple! Very eye-catching. Desserts were very interesting. That seemed to be the word of the night, "interesting." The chocolate had EVOO caviar, and the churros had porcini mushroom in it. Conversation pieces for sure! We liked it all; some better than others but nothing flat out disappointed, and I'd definitely come back to try other or new items. read more

Epic Thanksgiving Fail. The restaurant was made aware of my guest's food allergy well ahead of time. It came as a surprise to us that the gravy and salad contained the suspect food. The manager was not apologetic. Other staff members were far more understanding and cooperative and the issue was ultimately resolved. The waitress was a gem! "Thanksgiving Dinner Feast" (as advertised), consisted of "turkey breast, Joël Robuchon mashed potato, gravy, cherry and cranberry sauce". In reality, we were served a tiny portion of turkey, surrounded by inedible fat, a small portion of mashed potatoes, and a cranberry glaze. Very disappointing. Never before have I left a restaurant hungry. I complained to the manager but he said no other table had complained. His assessment was not too surprising given few tables were occupied. I realize that Thanksgiving dinner is not this restaurant's specialty but they should not have offered such a dinner with Lilliputian servings. The manager is poorly suited to dealing with customers. Avoid. read more
