Keith McNally brings Minetta Tavern to Washington DCMINETTA TAVERN ORIGINALLY OPENED IN 1937Named after the Minetta Brook — which ran southwest from 23rd Street to the Hudson River — the Tavern was frequented by various layabouts and hangers-on including Ernest Hemingway, Ezra Pound, Eugene O'Neill, E. E. Cummings, Dylan Thomas, and Joe Gould, as well as by various writers, poets, and pugilists.Since its renovation, Minetta Tavern has best been described as "Parisian steakhouse meets classic New York City tavern."We hope — and believe — that's a somewhat accurate description of the place.

    Overall, it is a nice place with good food and a great location, perfect for business meetings. However, I had to take off points due to the noise issue. We were the only group on the second floor and came for a business lunch, intending to discuss important matters. Unfortunately, in the middle of our lunch, the waitstaff started sorting utensils loudly right next to our table. It became so noisy that we could hardly hear each other, making it difficult to hold a conversation. What made it more frustrating was that the staff did not even try to be quieter, despite clearly seeing that we were having a discussion. I hope they will be more attentive to their customers in the future after reading this review.

    Service staff was great. Went for lunch. Turned out to be brunch. No Vegan options except a small salad. Excellent house champagne is $40 a glass so you might want to know that before you order one. Noise level high.
