Terrible! Extremely slow service.
No one at the host to greet us upon entering at prime time lunch time, then put in the side area behind a pole we already felt tucked away and forgotten about. Ordered lunch that was a burger and salad and took 45 minutes to finally arrive. No apology. We said we needed to-go boxes and had to leave. They did comp the bill without asking, but told us to come back another time we had a little more time to sit. Unfortunately, we will not be back. There are too many great places around here.

Service was good and the ambiance was nice. I wish they had more options and waiters knowledgeable in wine pairing with the meals.

Beautiful, light-filled space with excellent service and locally-sourced food. The brunch menu had a little of everything you could hope for. Fairly pricey but delicious.

I have been here several times over the years, mostly for dinner and brunch. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough. The service is top notch. Staff are great. The food is always so delicious. Most recently, we tried their special, Roast Duck, and it was divine. This place is great for special occasions, work-related gatherings, and simple lunches and dinners with family or friends, I recommend this restaurant to friends, family, and co workers.
Be the first to ReplyFantastic service, gorgeous location, and absolutely
Fantastic service, gorgeous location, and absolutely stunning modern design. This place is located in Park Hyatt, which is a 5-star luxury hotel in Washington, DC. I stayed a night here and tried their Blue Duck Tavern restaurant twice! This place is a Michelin-distinguished dining in the heart of Georgetown, Washington, DC. I came here for their breakfast and brunch on a Sunday morning. Their prices range between 20s-30s with relatively smaller but filling portion sizes. I had their duck confit in the morning with a green tea latte and an avocado toast at noon. The duck confit ($29) -- underwhelming. It came with a perfectly poached egg but the potato and duck were not spectacular for a Michelin restaurant. It had a succulent flavor with some oil and juices coating the bottom but the overall flavor was lacking. There's a biscuit on the side to add to an even more heartier feel to this dish. The avocado toast ($23) -- simple but pretty presentation. Arugula, poached egg, and avocado -- always a fantastic combination that is hard to mess up! I would definitely order this again.
Be the first to ReplyMy first review of 2024.
I came on a Thursday night at 7:30p. This beautiful restaurant is located inside the Park Hyatt Hotel. Our server's recommendation was to start with the bone marrow. It was severed with roasted garlic to smother over the bread. Delicious! Known for their duck obviously, we went with the whole duck. It was delicious. Tender and flavorful. I was surprised that the duck with severed with grits, pickled vegetables, and a fruit glaze in the middle. I also liked how they cut the duck up into pieces. It was more than enough for two people. I had a whole half to take home. For the sides we ordered mashed potatoes and broccolini. Everything was delicious! I'll be back.

Stayed at the Fairmont across the road and decided to try out this place. Duck was absolutely amazing. Service was excellent.

We first came for a snack and drinks, then dinner, and finally breakfast the next morning. Each time service was superb and we left satisfied. The fries were hot and crispy. For dinner absolutely the best potato purรฉe! The bone marrow is a must have with the baked garlic! For breakfast the biscuit with my duck hash was the star. The hash was missing some crispy skin and a bit greasy. Surprisingly, the rosemary potatoes (aka crispy potatoes) was very good! The blueberry muffin from the pantry basket is the best I have ever had! The restaurant vibe was modern and the windows floor to ceiling were nice. I would definitely come back.

I've eaten here on multiple occasions and was very underwhelmed why it had a Michelin star. That chef left in 2000 and went their star. I stayed at the hotel this evening and was quite hesitant eating here again, but this time around I must say, I had a really good dining experience. We sat in the dining room with a good view of the open kitchen. It wasn't loud or too quiet and can have an easy conversation. Came with complimentary bread service. Our waiter was friendly enough and was very pleasant. They don't have a kids menu but they will create a dish for them. My girl had pasta with tomato sauce. The sauce wasn't too much so she poured in the grated cheese. It was good. The bone marrow slathered in roasted garlic with the toasted bread and spreads it with the marrow, wow, that was fantastic. The crab cakes and duck breast with confit was spot on! The crab cakes with that tarter type sauce and frisรฉe salad were so good. But the star had to been the duck breast. It was so moist and really good flavor. Duck confit was nice and crispy. Was too full for dessert and left the place feeling happy. It's not cheap place paying $310 for one starter, three entrees (one was kids entree), two sides (potato purรฉe was to die for!!), and three cocktails with tax and tip.
Be the first to ReplyWent to the Xmas dinner special.
Host was rude when we walked in & there was no coat check...I literally had to throw my winter coat on a random chair next to the table. Ambiance is horrible. It is in a hotel, but a Park Hyatt. The restaurant had bright white lights that were very harsh. We were seated directly next to another 2 top, very close. There were at least 10 open tables so patrons could've been spread out. The water pitcher was on the ledge directly behind me so any time a glass was refilled, they reached behind to grab it. The food was just ok. We each ordered the prime rib & it was very tough. We had to ask for steak knives. The waiter said you usually don't need steak knives for prime rib...well, we do or wouldn't be asking. Told us they were out of one of the desserts we ordered then magically found one. They were almost congealed & very little flavor. I expected much more from this very well known DC establishment. Not worth the money.

In 2018 I would've given this place 4 stars, but in the span of 5 years the prices have risen by a lot. From $25 to now $55 for corkage? Really ruins the vibe of trying to bring your own bottle to enjoy here. The restaurant location is still great and the hotel lobby is stunning -- large wood pieces, artwork everywhere, and great spotlights. The food quality hasn't really dropped off I think, but besides the Duck, I'm not sure if it's really worth eating anything else. I ordered the harissa potatoes, the fish with foam on it, roast chicken, and the duck, and felt that only the duck was worth eating.I think if they lower the corkage price I'll come again, but for now I don't think I can make a return to Blue Duck Tavern until they come up with more tasty dishes.
Be the first to ReplyAll food was delicious, servers were attentive.
The open kitchen concept is interesting and contributes to a nice atmosphere.
Be the first to ReplyMid afternoon lunch so sat in lounge.
They have a light fare lounge menu. It's open and airy. Service was quick and food was brought quicker also. Wife had a Pandam Rum punch which was interesting to look at and full of complex flavors. I had a Harvey salad with a juicy chicken breast. Wife had a lump crab cake. It's a little pricey otherwise I would give 5 stars.

We celebrated our one year here and they helped make it the most special day. The ambiance is modern and casual upscale and the service was amazing. To top it off the food was amazing. We had the marrow as a starter followed by the braised beef and duck breast with the Brussel sprouts and cavatelli. Everything was superb and the portions were more than filling. Highly recommend the Brussels sprouts. They had a beautifully crisp outside and a creamy inside. The flavor was playfully savory and sweet from the pumpkinseed brittle. They definitely earned my business and I will be dining here again!
Be the first to ReplyWe ate dinner here with our two children.
We always bring things to occupy our kids during the wait (coloring stuff or books to read), and the staff seemed fine with their presence. But this is not a place for a kiddo who can't be easily occupied or who doesn't have an adult who can take them for a walk when things get rough, especially at dinner. We ate the halibut, a whole fish, the potato purรฉe (mashed potatoes), brussel sprouts, and kids' pasta and chicken with a generous side of fruit. The kids raved about the fruit! And both enjoyed their (simple but good) entrees. The adults enjoyed our dinner as well. We also tried their peanut chocolate cake with brown sugar ice cream, and the dark cherry blossom sorbet. So good! We spent a bit more than expected but it was worth it. Excellent food, service, and ambience. We weren't staying at this hotel, and I'm so glad we found it.
Be the first to ReplyGreat ambiance, even better service.
The food was superb. Highly recommend the duck. The steak was also excellent!

this is a must hit up spot when in DC but be mindful of the $$$ status. you are not only paying for high quality that it's Michelin star stouts but as well as quantity. they did not skimp out on serving sizes! wow, what can I say...the bone marrow topped with garlic confit was a must have. the braised short rib was melting in your mouth as well as their behemoth fries with a spicy aioli that kicked!! the service was a little slow for my nyc standards but was happy to not be rushed out.

COCKROACH!!! I don't even know how to express the disgust I felt during our meal last night. As we sat down to eat and our drinks were delivered I turned around to see a GIANT cockroach crawling up the wall behind me. I'm taking like well fed, length of my cell phone cockroach. I jumped up and my husband sprung into action and crushed it crunching it with his napkin (sickening). I of course moved to not be sitting near that wall as one employee came over and said "oh it's dc, they're everywhere" and another said "oh it's just because the door was open earlier." WHAT?! I've lived in dc for over 7 years and I have never seen a cockroach in a restaurant ever! The best part of all of it was the manager came over and mentioned sending dessert (ha! The absolute least they could do!) for the experience. We ordered dessert at the end of the meal and they didn't comp it but sent over 2 desserts we didn't order and then tried to charge us for one!! Cockroach aside (and it's hard to put that aside) the food was incredibly lackluster. The halibut was wildly bland, the truffle pasta had a generous amount of truffles yet still had no taste, and the chocolate dessert they sent tasted like something you'd buy at Sams club.

This restaurant is located in a hotel and it is so worth trying. The ambiance is amazing. The service, food and drinks are amazing. The waiter was able to describe everything on the menu in great detail. He gave us recommendations that we LOVED. I had the crab cakes that melt in your mouth. The crispy Brussel sprouts look so deceiving because they are AMAZING. The potato wedges (My God) are so good and crispy. They are like wedges but fried and seasoned to perfection. I hate I didn't get a picture of the famous Apple Pie . We tried not to eat too much because we had dinner reservations some where else and just wanted a snack but clearly we went overboard a little. I definitely would recommend this place, and will surely be back.
Be the first to ReplyWent in for lunch.
As we were dining in one of the high end hotel and previous michelin, we expected service to be above average at least. When the food arrived, the guy from the kitchen dropped our food plate on our table so hard that you can literally hear the bang and people from next table turned their head towards us. Also, he did not even describe our dish and just walked away without speaking a single word. We ordered halibut and duck. Duck came out dry inside (how hard is it to mess up confit?) and halibut was nothing special to write about. The only dish worth mentioning was Brussel sprouts. Also at one point there was still food remaining in each plates which we were still working on, and one of the server came to take the plate away, and we had to stop him. Yes, he did not even ask "are you finished with your plate?" before touching our plate. Will not go back.

This was the best charred chicken and lemon broccoli i ever had in my entire life.
Be the first to ReplyIt's a hotel restaurant.
I was here for breakfast, so when I got my bill they assumed I was staying at the hotel which made paying a bit more complicated than it needed to be.I got the eggs Benedict and pomegranate juice. For $7 it was a lot of juice and not everywhere has pomegranate, so that was nice. The poached eggs were excellent and the hollandaise sauce was decent, though the sauce was a bit lightly applied so honestly it was hard to assess. It did not overwhelm the dish at least. Downsides are primarily the menu setting unreasonable expectations for the food you get. The ham was a bit too thick and I didn't taste rosemary despite the menu's claim of "rosemary ham". The "crispy potatoes" were cold and not at all crispy. As a crispy potatoes fanatic who has given up on asking for potatoes to be served crispy because nowhere will actually fulfill that request, when a menu says crispy potatoes I expect them to at least make a passing effort at being crispy even if they won't actually be what I would consider crispy. These potatoes were nowhere in the vicinity of crispy. They were soft and cold and probably had been reheated from yesterday given their mealy and overcooked texture.If you don't care about the texture or temperature of your breakfast potatoes, this place does a fine enough job of providing a fancy seeming breakfast and they can execute well on the things that must be made fresh like poached eggs. It would be a much better restaurant if they put the same amount of effort and care into all of the details instead of only some of them.
Be the first to ReplyDining place with modern, luxurious decor and lighting.
The restaurant is part of Park Hyatt DC hotel, and prioritizes hotel guests as well as reservations. Walk-ins might expect more than half an hour of waiting. Reservation highly recommended.Ordered a variety of brunch dishes, but will only comment on what I've tried---Smoked salmon: salmon tasted fresh with abundant fat; smoke taste a bit underwhelming for my taste.Bone marrow: marrow nicely broiled to mush, went well with the fried bread. Some pieces of bread was over-fried and charcoaled.Hand cut rosemary fries: expected regular or shoe-string size fries, but it was actually four huge chunks of sweet potato fries the size of butter stick. Nevertheless, the fries were made well. Crispy on the outside, tender with sweet potato taste inside, literally melting in the mouth. Rosemary portion was controlled well, not too spicy or herbal, but adding enough flavor to the fries.Burger: not served on a bun, but on a toast. Requested medium rare, came close to medium, but very juicy and seasoned well. Sunny side egg was easily absorbed by the toast. The pickled cucumber could be cut thinner.Overall:Since this is an attached restaurant for a 5-star hotel, expect it to be pricey. But judging from today's experience, it was money well spent.
Be the first to ReplyI have gone here twice.
Had different palate experiences. The most recent was a great time. The BDT fries were yum! Super big with a good sauce. The braised beef was also good topped with chimichurri. The crab cakes were probably the best with the green beans/mushrooms. The last time I came I got the duck and it was actually mediocre and didn't have the best flavoring. Disappointing. Each time was spectacular service.
Be the first to Replyincredible food and really, really incredible drinks.
ย I've been here for breakfast and dinner several times and still can't decide which is better. ย The bottom line is BDT is quality all around and IMO legitimately has some of the best bar tenders you're ever going to find outside of some super specific, highly specialized mixed drinks bar...top NOTCH!!!!
