Restaurants near Penn Quarter Metro Station, Washington D.C.

We opted for the chef’s experience, and it truly exceeded our expectations. There were four of us in the group, and we all shared the same thought: “the next plate can’t possibly top the previous one, as it was just too delicious with its surprising flavors.” However, we were pleasantly surprised; each new dish turned out to be a breakthrough in taste. We jokingly anticipated that they might "fail" with the dessert, but we couldn’t have been more wrong! Funny enough, the drinks were for sure a 5star experience. Just SPECIAL. Overall, it was an excellent experience that offered outstanding value and service.

One of the most fun places to eat in DC. Fantastic food, beautiful decor and a great atmosphere. You don’t notice the service, which shows their professionalism. Book ahead as it gets packed!

Julian was a wonderful server. The food was great. We ordered a “pitcher of sangria” and expected red wine- no they brought champagne and it was the most expensive on the menu $72!!! Not worth it at all. It wasn’t even muddled fruit. It was champagne over ice and fresh orange slices. That was a huge disappointment. BUT- the bacalao was scrumptious and the rest was quite tasty.

Amazing selection of southern style food with some Asian twists. Nice wine selection. Beautiful dining room. Fantastic service. Recommend the deviled eggs, fried green tomato salad, and the collard greens. The steak was cooked perfectly with a pat of Cajun butter!

We were going to Capital One arena for a 2 PM sporting event. Clydes is always our “go to” but it’s always so noisy and crowded there so we thought we should try something new. The Smith menu caught our eye. Traditional brunch style items along decent salads and sandwiches. Plus fun cocktails. The place was packed, but it wasn’t super noisy. Our server was very attentive. We really enjoyed our lunch there and we will definitely be going back
