Best Restaurants with a Fireplace in Mount Vernon Triangle

Charming with generous portions of traditional French cuisine. Good wine selection.

A holiday dinner with good friends was wonderful ... food wine service! But halfway through the meal a large party of 8 already lit with "cheer" was sat next to us in one of Tabard's smaller rooms and we could no longer hear each other. So we left before dessert. I realize that restaurants can't predict their patrons' behavior but in this instance re had to exit through a nearby small room which was empty and had a table that would have accommodated the group. Too bad!

Loved our C’mas eve eve dinner. Outstanding service and ambiance. They gave me the exact table I wanted. Staff A+

From the moment we walked in, every one was welcoming. The atmosphere was relaxed with an old world feel. Our server Lindsay had great insights into the menu. The tuna crudo was fresh and not too spicy. Beets are my favorite and they were paired nicely with the melt in your mouth burrata. First time trying rockfish and the flavor was light with a flaky texture. My companion commented the duck breast was flavorful and tender. The drinks were spot on. The bananas foster was incredibly delectable. Not overly sweet. I am looking forward to coming back.

My friend and I dined in the outdoor eating space at Iron Gate where there were impressive fires burning next to each table. We were snug and warm. Our waiter was so welcoming we relaxed and relied on his advice while ordering. Our food was amazing from the tasty welcome dish through the main dish and two delicious desserts. The young woman at the front door went beyond her duties to help us add a second ride to our taxi order. We plan many return visits!
