Everything is top drawer: decor, ambiance, food, presentation, service. We were here for Christmas Day dinner. Even on a very busy day, the pace was leisurely and serene, staff (some of whom had been working for 12 hours already) were unflapped, and every last morsel perfectly prepared. We had such a good time, we even came back the next morning... more

Wonderful! A real treat. The staff is very nice but sometimes a little too attentive - interrupting one too many times to see if we needed anything. more

I really wanted to try the Blue Duck, so I booked a reservation for Valentine's Day over a month in advance through opentable. A few weeks later, I got an email asking me to fax a copy of my credit card to the restaurant in order to guarantee my spot -- they have a policy on holidays where they will... more

I chose the Blue Duck Tavern for our first meal in DC based on the reviews on this and other foodie websites. It was the perfect choice for our first meal. It was just a short cab ride away from the Sofitel where were staying. I loved the trendy, swanky ambiance just as I imagined the DC restaurants would have.... more

We recently had dinner at the Blue Duck and it was a wonderful night. The staff we very courteous and efficient, not overbearing as can be common in American restaurants but also readily available when we did want something. The food was wonderful and to our pleasant surprise not overly expensive. The layout out of the restaurant is good, we... more

We went on a Sunday night for dinner. When we walked in, I thought this was going to be a snooty place. I was wrong. Our waitress and servers were charming and informative about the food and wine. The service was exemplary. We are NY-ers and have pretty high standards (not to be snooty, myself) and I have to say... more

This is a great restaurant for both service and food. Everything was cooked to perfection and of the hightest quality. It was, however, outlandishly expensive but if you have the money and appreciate the best, it is worth it. There is not much ambiance in the Blue Duck - it's quite sterile but definitely a culinary experience. more

Blue Duck Tavern is in a location convenient to Georgetown. A nice, modern look to it. The food is delicious, especially the seafood choices. The entrees are large enough to share and served to make it easy to pass around the table. The side dishes are all a la carte, and they are served family style (large portions designed for... more

Wife took me there for my b'day & it was an absolutely enjoyable experience. The decor was fantastic, service excellent, food very good, prices quite reasonable. Only gripe, my wife is a vegetarian and the choices were extremely limited for her. She went for the gnocchi side dish which she thought was pretty good. But some more choices would've been... more
