The atmosphere/ambiance of the place is wonderful . The staff is also really kind! I loved that there was a bookstore inside the place. The food is really good and the price is reasonable. Also, for my muslim brother and sister out there, they serve halal chicken and meat as stated in the menu, which is really nice! There were also vegaterian options and gluten free options. Love it!

Food was amazing & our server, Jack, was really great. He helped direct me to the gluten free options, he was incredibly kind and checked in on our table throughout service.
We had the Chesapeake eggs Benedict, corn beef hash, and oysters. No complaints whatsoever.
The Harvest Turkey Bowl on special was amazing and loaded with flavor. Cranberry Harissa Sauce with Roasted Sweet Potatoes, Roasted Turkey, Green Beans and Basmati Rice this is the best gluten free Thanksgiving style meal ever!
A pretty delicious meal. Came here as a group and had both vegetarian and gluten-free diners with us. We could get something we each desired here, and our server was fantastic. She handled all of our needs and then some. We were there early evening, and there were a few tables filled, but when we left, most tables were filled. We shared several appetizers, the skillet cornbread was delish, and the habanero butter added a nice kick. Both the avocado tartare and fried cauliflower were great, and the deviled crab egg looked good. I tried the Peruvian soup for my meal, and it came in a giant bowl filled with meat, potatoes, cheese, and a fried egg. I ate about half and brought the rest home. All of the others had great food and looked terrific. We were all too full for dessert, though the dessert menu had some delicious things.
Looking forward to coming here again in the future, and I highly recommend that you give this place a try.
I happened across this place on Google maps while I was looking for somewhere to have dinner for my birthday. It ended up being AMAZING! I can't say enough good things about the food, the service, the atmosphere. I loved our waiter, and everyone we interacted with was infallibly courteous and pleasant. And the food was incredible. We had the chef's choice menu. They were very flexible in providing gluten-free options, which is remarkable given that it's a prix-fixe menu. I'm pretty hard to please with food, but I ate everything they put in front of us and would have eaten more. Even the cocktail (the cucumber basil smash) was probably the best one I've ever had. Well done Nina May!
We enjoyed a great dinner at Joe's. We were able to get a last-minute reservation while in town for one night. The food was excellent, but the service was top-notch, and I would give our server, Jeffery, 10 stars if I could.
First, they were extremely accommodating with my extensive food allergies. My son and husband have no food allergies, so they got to enjoy a lot more than me.
I opted for the grilled seafood platter that came with scallops, lobster, and shrimp and for a side sautted mushrooms. Everything was made gluten-free, also dairy, soy, peanut, and treenut free.
It was hearty and delicious and I don't often enjoy a meal so much, especiallyseafood. It's hard to find places that can accommodating me.
My son got filet with crab Oscar and my husband a ribeye with bearnaise. They shared a mashed potatoe and a lobster mac.
Jeffery was attentive and funny, and we enjoyed his stories. It made the experience even better.
We are looking forward to eating there again next time we are in town.
Had a great time here! I have celiac disease which can be very stressful when traveling. This place was suggested to me as they have protocols to avoid cross contamination. After placing my order a manager came over and said my waiter had let her know that I have an allergy/sensitivity and that they take it ver seriously. She said they work hard to ensure there is no cross contamination and that my food would come out with a red flag to confirm it is gluten free. This made me feel very comfortable as I didn’t even ask to talk to anyone they just did it! I had gluten free rigatoni alla vodka which was good. I was so happy with the service that I came back today for breakfast and had some of the best home fries I’ve ever had! Highly recommend this place, food, staff, and atmosphere are all great.
My friends and I had a fantastic time trying the Chef's Tasting Menu! The wine expert was very knowledgeable and let us sample wines before we bought them. The chef was also very accommodating of my friend's gluten allergy. Expensive and long (3+ hours), but that's part of the experience! Worth trying, if you can!
We really enjoyed our experience here. With our allergies (gluten and dairy) the staff was attentive and flexible with our needs. It’s always appreciated people know what is in the dishes they are making, and we were either redirected to other choices or a modification can be made.
The deviled eggs were prepared without dairy (in the mousse) and they were still delicious. Green beans and sweet potatoes were paired with our steaks and they amazing.
We also enjoyed our cocktails — Manhattan Noir — which were prepared perfectly, and topped with three Luxardo cherries.
Atmosphere was great as well. The boardwalk area is fun and vibrant. The Grill makes an excellent choice for a higher end meal in this area.
If you are on a gluten free diet, this restaurant is a real treat. This is the ONLY restaurant I know of in the entire DC area that offers gluten free French toast!!! It is really yummy. It is gluten free cinnamon raison bread that they make into French toast. It is served with maple syrup that has few slices of bananas in it. It is always served warm. (Be sure to look for the bananas. If the French toast is served with sliced strawberries, that is the wheat based French toast.)
This restaurant also has gluten free bread so most of their sandwiches can be made gluten free upon request. And they can make their eggs benedict gluten free by using their gluten free toast.
It is a very pleasant experience dining here. I usually dine outside. They are located on a small street in Georgetown. Georgetown can be crowded but on this small street, it is never very busy. On a nice weather day, it is a pleasant experience to eat the gluten free French toast while enjoying the weather.
The service is always good too. I enthusiastically recommend this restaurant.

MJ welcomed us so warmly & our sunlit table became a family moment we will treasure. The food is exquisitely prepared & served … egg white frittata in the iron pot, gluten-free options as well. Delish drinks! Boys loved their chicken & waffles … and MJ’s instincts on making special moments is unmatched. A new favorite!
**Satisfying Experience at The Capital Burger 🍔🍟**
Dining at The Capital Burger was an absolutely delightful experience that I am eager to recount. From the moment we arrived, the ambiance was warm and inviting, perfectly setting the stage for a wonderful meal. 🌟
Our party indulged in a variety of selections from their tempting menu, beginning with the delectable bacon cheeseburgers. Each burger was crafted with precision, featuring juicy patties complemented by the rich, smoky flavor of bacon and perfectly melted cheese. The Capital Burger, a signature dish, did not disappoint either; it stood out with its harmonious blend of flavors and tender texture. 🍔
For those in our group with dietary preferences, the bacon cheeseburger with a gluten-free bun was a notable highlight. The bun held up beautifully, maintaining the integrity and taste of the classic burger experience. It’s heartening to see such considerate options available, ensuring everyone has a satisfying meal.
For our little one, the children’s grilled cheese meal was a hit. Simple yet delicious, it was a comforting choice that appealed to their taste perfectly. 🧀
What truly enhanced our dining adventure was the impeccable service. The staff was attentive and kind, ensuring our experience was seamless and enjoyable from start to finish. 🙌
In conclusion, The Capital Burger offers not just fantastic food but an overall exceptional dining experience. It’s a place I look forward to visiting again soon, and I highly recommend it to others seeking both taste and quality. 🍽️
I would usually rate this restaurant higher. I have been to a different location before and had good service as well as they have gluten free options. This time after moving apartments I did a pick up order. I was excited for the lamb burger with the gluten free bread. My boyfriend got a burger and roommate got a Cuban panini. I would say the food was okay a 3.5 but my issue is how my boyfriend was treated when getting into the restaurant.
I sent my boyfriend in because I was driving. Told him to pick up the order with my name on it. He texts me asking for confirmation. That’s okay because a guy is picking up a girls order. He comes to the car and says the guy “looked him up and down and told he needs to show proof”.
I understand the asking for proof but it’s the tone. It’s the way you ask for things, the attitude you have. My boyfriend is North African/Arabic and it’s GIVING RACIAL PROFILING.
So imagine being emotionally exhausted from moving in the DC humidity and heat and then someone makes you feel like that at the end of your day. All to have a sub par burger.
The food is quite good. I really enjoy the oysters Rockefeller as it is one of the first I have seen that is gluten free and tastes good. Typically I order the steak frites which is always good. The other times when I have ordered things such as the chicken sandwich and schnitzel, I have not always been pleased. I believe the chicken sandwich is juicy, but a tad bland. For the schnitzel, it is definitely not traditional. I saw the idea of what was being put out, but it did not fully resonate with my palate. Nonetheless, I hope to be back soon for a couple drinks and oysters.
Amazing Easter Brunch! Thoroughly enjoyed the Easter Brunch experience at 1789. The menu, ambience, and service were exceptional. Gluten Free options available as well.

Daniel A. Was a great server, he knew what was gluten free, which helped my partner and I. Would recommend him to anyone there. He asked if we were there for an occasion and hooked us up. Excellent job.

Had such a lovely meal! The food was absolutely delicious but it was our server Veena, who really went above and beyond to personalize our experience. They were so helpful and informative when accommodating dietary restrictions at the table - Eating out with celiac is hard! But Veena was so sweet and didn’t make us feel like a burden at all. Definitely will be in their section every time we come back!!
First time at this location but not first time at the franchise.
Atmosphere and general service:
We had to wait a minute or two for the hostess to come talk to us and seat us (it was a Sunday afternoon and we were the only ones standing at the door so it wasn’t busy). After seating, we waited about 10-15 minutes to get water or any type of service. We flagged down two servers and the manager in the process. The menu for that specific time (brunch) had multiple items marked as unavailable for weekend brunch, which made no sense…why put it on if it’s not available? Or at least, write it in something else other than 8.5 font. The restaurant was at less than 50% capacity but food took almost 30 mins. We came in at 2:20, they took our order at around 2:35, food came out at 3:01 (two basic entrees and an app).
Food runner was fake-nice and passive-aggressive…uncalled for.
Server (after assignment) was really nice. He did his best, all things considered.
Manager tried to help as well, which was nice.
Food:
App: we got crispy Brussels sports. Perfect amount of sweet and savory, pretty on point. Would absolutely get it again.
Entree #1: vegan chicken sandwich. Was meh. The soy protein had good texture and consistency but it was lacking flavor. Even dipping it in ketchup and dowsing it in hot sauce couldn’t rescue it.
Entree #2: Lamb burger with gluten free bread. Meat was pretty good, well seasoned. But bread was cold. Not warm, just cold.
Fries with entrees: cooked perfectly but again, they lack flavor (but ketchup and bbq sauce rescued them…thank god).
I will not come back to this location and I’ll think twice before going back to another location. But I just might door dash them Brussels sprouts.
Went to Silver for the first time. Dined at Sliver Diner many many times. Went for my kids bday lunch with Mom, sister and grandma. Went around 3pm after lunch and before dinner so it was pretty empty. Ordered lots of food, apps , entrees, gluten free stuff for my kid and ultimately subdaes. Service was great, The young but experienced waitress memorized our order without writing down like 15 + items and said she won't forget anything and she was right! The food was good and fancied up a bit from Sliver Diner. Burgers were good but seemed much smaller than the Diners version. Same with Sundaes which I was expecting large glass filled with ice cream, hot fudge and whip cream but for a smaller bowl with a brownie with ice cream on top. It was good, no complaints but you can downsize the food a bit but not the dessert ! The chimichurra chicken wings are unique and really good! They took care of us well , even grandma enjoyed the food which is unusual. Lastly they brought out a candle for my kid without having to ask. We will be back , without the kids next time !
Very Celiac friendly! Their fries and cooked in a separate fryer and they have gluten free buns that are so good I did a double take thinking it wasn’t gluten free.
Chic place, separate menu for celiacs/coeliacs/celiac disease/gluten-free/gluten free/without gluten.
Attentive and friendly service, the food wasn't the best but no problems whatsoever.
Worst experience ever! I went with 2 friends for dinner and we unfortunately did not have a good experience at the Blue Jacket today. Starting with a racial comment made by the waitress about the way I spoke (because I have an accent) and ending with another rude comment about my gluten restrictions. We had to correct the order and the food did not taste good. The service and the wait was awful even though the place was empty. I would never return to this place!
It's a solid brunch spot. Coffee is so-so, but staff is very friendly. I can't eat gluten and appreciated being able to chose an extra side over the bread. It's a busy place but the wait is never too long and the food is good!
Loved FFB. Great menu choices to offer veggies, gluten free, vegan, carnivores all yummy options. We had 8 folks, 8 cocktails, 8 entrees, 5 apps and 2 desserts. Everything was so good. Big place and a bit noisy. Not great for intimate dining. We had a great time.
We had a very lovely dinner at the Pembroke and enjoyed their Sunday Supper pre fixe menu. We had both a nut allergy and a serious gluten intolerance in our party. The staff was incredibly proactive about communicating what was safe for us to eat and even provided us with delicious alternatives when we could not eat the course that was on the menu. They also have a wine list highlighting female-owned and sustainable brands. The rosé we enjoyed was a wonderful complement to the meal.
Our party of 4 had a wonderful meal at this restaurant. 2 of us are celiac or gluten intolerant, they have a whole gluten free menu and we were very satisfied with the food and the wonderful service.

Great for gluten free vegans!!!! menu is well-marked and there are multiple items for folks living (eating) at the intersection of GF& vegan. however, DO NOT order the “smoothie bowl” i immediately wanted to send it back (but i would never cuz that’s crazy, ab as crazy as this review). the smoothie bowl is liquidy-soupy like a drinking a drink with a spoon and it comes in a mug. coupe, yall need to rethink that one or remove it. i rlly regretted ordering it and i usually LOVE smoothie bowls.
Really nice spot for holiday tea, with outstanding service from Allison, who was well versed in the wide variety of teas, and the rest of the crew. We liked the tower of sandwiches and sweets better than tea at the Willard.
The Blue Duck Tavern easily accommodated Gluten-Free allergy. It’s a little noiisy but very comfortable setting.
Such wonderful people. I’m a newly-diagnosed celiac and it’s been hard. I ordered from Ted’s Bulletin on UberEats and the restaurant actually called me to let me know that one of the items wasn’t gluten-free. Then they went above and beyond to find me a safe substitute. The food was really good too!
This place is a MUST TRY. The quality of the food was high, and especially for a price that is hard to come by without skipping on quality. The dishes here are very unique, and healthy. I am gluten-free due to Celiac's, and this place has possibly the BEST flourless brownie I have tried (and I am very picky about brownies, given they are my favorite dessert). My girlfriend and I ate here last week, each getting an entree and drink, and we shared the brownie, all for a low price of $35 after tipping. Unfortunately, parking is difficult to come by and it's located on a fairly busy intersection, making outdoor dining a little noisy & distracting. Even with that said, I am returning to this restaurant tonight!

A beautiful restaurant with amazing views and delicious food. The staff were very professional, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. Two members of the party are gluten intolerant so this was very helpful. The drinks were also tasty!
I've been wanting to try this place for over a year and it was worth the wait.
Initially I found it when looking for gluten free friendly restaurants and it had great reviews. A lot of their dishes can be made gluten free including some pastas.
This place was *cozy* but modern. Great atmosphere especially if you go during a quiet time. We went at 830 which was perfect cuz the rush was over and we got a great table.
Service was great,very attentive and great recommendations. I even asked for a recommendation on champagne/prosecco and they ended up bringing me a sample of something not even on the menu yet which was exactly the taste I wanted.
We both got steak, the NY strip and filet. We both agreed that these were the best steaks we've had in a very long time. My partner got the strip med-rare and it was *actually* medium rare.
We got the fried pork belly app and Brussel sprouts app. I don't even like Brussel sprouts... like low key hate them but these were GOOD.
I could see this place being a place that's not great when super busy. It's not a big restaurant and some of the tables were pretty tight. So I definitely recommend a reservation and going during a less busy time if possible.
Will definitely be coming back

The food here is amazing! The ambiance is a little less than ideal but it’s a small and busy space, so it works! Maybe some ambiance music would elevate the experience?
Other than that, this place is the absolute best spot for gluten free and vegan items! Can’t go wrong with anything on the menu, especially the seasonal shakes are a must!
This place was amazing from the phone call. I called ahead to see if they could accommondate my many dietary needs. I cannot have gluten, canola oil, sunflower oil, or soybean oil. Lauren, one of the hostesses assure me they could accommondate everything. While she strongly suggested to book a reservation, she mentioned there were some spots that are available but on a first come first serve basis. When we arrived we were seated immediately at the community table and had Ian as our waiter who went out of his way to make sure our meal and experience was perfect and it was. He was made away of all my dietary needs which was amazing not to run through that again with a different person. They were able to accommondate just as they said they would. The chef even made up for me a side dish that I could have. I had the beef wagyu which was cooked to perfection and juicy. My husband had the halibut. Now, I don't even like fish, and I thought his dish was amazing. If all fish tasted like that, I would eat fish more often. The portions were a little on the smaller side, but the dishes themselves had excellent flavors. My husband also had the parker rolls with goat butter, the hard apple cider, and the s'more bar. I didn't eat dessert, but the desserts look beautifully presented and my husband raved about it. Also, I never had goat butter before and that was also delicious. What drew me to this place is that from their info on the website said they try to source locally and organic when possibly. This is what we try to do ourselves. We love that this place adopted that as well. The food, service, and the presentation was superior. When we are back in town, we will definitely return. We also got the butterhead lettuce salad and dates too go, which of course was also delicious.
Everything we ate was amazing. My husband and I ate the vegan 5 course taster. They were able to accommodate my gluten free needs with ease and we enjoyed 4 hrs of pampering eating outside with exceptional service from waiter Georgi. Chef/owner Todd came and checked on us at the beginning and end of our experience which made it all the more memorable for our family of four. Only remembered to take a few photos and some half way through eating, but every work of art was plated beautifully.
I've eaten here many times on my trips to DC and I enjoy this restaurant for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I have to eat gluten free options and the menu is marked for gluten free items. I'm happy with the variety of items and everything I've eaten here has been delicious. It's a fun, lively restaurant.
Love this local spot! Great food, great drinks, the service and community here is fab. A perfect place to connect with your people during or after a long week. Also their breakfast tacos are the best in the city. :) I’m gluten free and it’s always super easy on that front too. Recommend!
