First time — Burgers/frites were very good. Salad Verte had the best flavors. French onion soup — excellent. Service was even better. Will return.

Incredible experience and ambiance! My boyfriend and I would literally rate this as our favorite restaurant that we’ve dined at, and that’s including restaurants in both Chicago and DC. Highly recommend the tuna crudo, the wagyu short rib, and the rack of lamb as they were exquisite. We also loved our cocktails!! Amazing experience, would absolutely recommend again.

It's been many years since I've been to the Tabard Inn, so long ago that I was living in Dupont on Riggs Place. It was low key and funky and much smaller. The present version is very different but equally enjoyable. Larger, still good food, but more space and fewer distractions. A great place to meet for breakfast and escape from the bustling of one of Washington's friendliest circles.

Wow, as advertised, great host, server, manager!!!! The food we ordered was all superb!!! Crab cake to start, wife ordered the meatloaf, I had the short rib stroganoff. We had reservations and thankful we thought ahead, the 1330 lunch rush was visible on the weekend. I ordered a bloody mary, only portion of the meal which I thought lacked attention. Manager passed by the table and was very nice!!! Thank you for the Carrot cake, it was phenomenal. Highly would recommend and glad we came!!!
