Best Restaurants with Bar Seating in Northeast

This was our first time dining at Ambar and we thought it was amazing. Everything was perfect from the food, to the speed and attention to detail with the service to the overall restaurant experience. My father in law is very stubborn and does not like anything "different" and I was beyond excited to see how much he loved this restaurant! My 8yo also loved getting to take a bite and dry all of the different dishes. So happy to have experienced this restaurant.

Ottoman Taverna in Washington, D.C., provided a memorable experience for my mom and me on Christmas Eve. We were treated to a wonderful prix fixe menu that perfectly captured the flavors and richness of Turkish cuisine. As someone who had never tried Turkish food before, my mom was pleasantly surprised by the variety and authenticity of the dishes. From savory appetizers to tender kebabs, each course was a delight. The ambiance was warm and inviting, making it the perfect setting for a special holiday meal. The service was attentive, and overall, it was a fantastic introduction to Turkish cuisine. Highly recommended!

Will was a fantastic waiter. He was so helpful with our daughter’s food allergies by checking with the chef regarding ingredients. All 6 of us enjoyed our food and the specialty drinks were yummy. Clyde’s was the perfect choice for our Christmas Eve dinner.

Great place to stop for lunch on a Sunday while shopping in Georgetown. Make a reservation. It gets very busy. Good kids menu, lots of variety on the adult menu too. 

The mixologist at Morris is a genius, and I loved the fact that we could tell him our favorite flavor profiles, and he could improvise brilliant cocktails! Egg whites especially appreciated, and did not mind paying the extra dollar. I did wish Morris had a real kitchen, though… Charcuterie plates and sandwiches only go so far, and then you want some hot, cooked tasty snacks to with those great cocktails.
