Best Restaurants with Great Beer in Washington DC

This was our 2nd visit. We are there 11 years ago on our honeymoon when visiting DC so we were really happy the quality, experience was just as great as we remembered it. The dining room is nice not too big, but lively. The staff are excellent, so friendly and happy to explain the menu. The food is great, full of flavor. We had the Sambosa appetizer which was perfect for sharing. I had the Lamb Tibs and my husband had the combo of chicken and beef. The staff are gracious to check your wishes and confirm you’re happy to have them plated together. It was a great experience overall.

The Sovereign was an excellent find for us while visiting DC! At the end of a full day we wanted a nice dinner in the Georgetown area and this place was a gem. Great food (best mussels my wife has had) and delicious drinks (awesome Belgian beer selection) made for an outstanding dinner!

Great food. Really good service. A little noisy, like any popular restaurant in the city usually is. We dine here every time we’re in DC.

Et Voila continues to be a welcoming restaurant with quality food and wine/bar choices. I appreciate a restaurant with a good chateauneuf-du-pape by the glass! The carbonnade and our other main course selections were excellent, with the fries always outstanding. My mom loved her baked escargots. The floating island and chocolate mousse are our constant go-tos that never disappoint. The interior room was a bit hectic for an early seating but we put that down to it being Christmas Eve.

We were greeted with a big smile at the front stand and promptly seated. This vibrant spot featured fresh, well-prepared sushi and an array of American and Italian selections. Every dish we selected was excellent. Though the place was packed and the noise level was predictably high, I had requested a quiet table when reserving and we were seated in a private booth complete with a door and coat hooks - the closest thing to our own dining room. The star of the evening was was our server Brian S. He was cheerful, informative, professional, welcoming, and everything one wants to insure a good experience when dining out. Kudos to The Hamilton - everyone got everything right!
