Frommer's "The kitchen smokes its own salmon (as it has for 29 years); cures its own pastrami, tasso ham, and prosciutto; and bakes its own bread and pastries, so these items are awfully good." Full review
Zagat4.2
"It's a perfect "rendezvous" for dinner in the "intimate" main room, "cozy" drinks by the fire or a "wonderful" reservation-worthy brunch in the "hidden" garden." Full review
Gayot14.0
"Revisiting one of DC's most charming yet least publicized restaurants is much like a trip down memory lane." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The menu of this historic inn always offers a delicious surprise. The garden is lovely and the funky interior has several inviting nooks and crannies."
Time Out "Tucked at the back of a 19th-century brownstone, home to a family-run hotel, the Tabard is an eclectic and shamelessly romantic destination." Full review
Washington Post Editors' Pick
"The beautiful surroundings offer a place to talk, to relax and unwind with contemporary American food." Full review
Afar Magazine "What I love about the Tabard Inn is that most D.C. visitors and transplants have never heard of it, yet this place requires a brunch reservation 2 weeks in advance." Full review
Not For Tourists "Romantic rendezvous."
Fodor's "Fading portraits and overstuffed furniture make the lobby lounge look like an antiques store, but this hotel restaurant's culinary sensibilities are thoroughly modern." Full review
The Infatuation "If you like jazz and don’t mind being youngest person in the room by 20 years, you'll enjoy the live music at Tabard Inn on most evenings." Full review

Frommer's "In spite of awesome competition, this is still the best pizza place in the city." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Founded in 1991, Pizzeria Paradiso serves what many consider the best pizza in the city." Full review
Zagat "These midpriced "pizza nirvanas" in Dupont Circle, Georgetown and Old Town Alexandria are "delicious enough for serious foodies but still casual enough for an outing with family and friends"." Full review
Gayot13.0
"This cheerful pizza parlor serves some of the best pizza this side of Naples." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The lively, friendly atmosphere makes this an excellent choice for a casual meal."
Michelin Guide "Tucked inside a tiny row house near Dupont Circle, Pizzeria Paradiso serves up one of the best pizzas in the nation's capital."
Time Out "Good quality, wood-oven pizza that keeps locals coming back for more. Expect to wait for a table, even at the larger Georgetown location." Full review
Rough Guide "Supreme pizzeria, with famously tasty pizzas such as the enormous Siciliana, potato-and-pesto Genovese, and ultra-peppery, spicy Atomica. Expect to wait in line."
Washington Post Editors' Pick
"This cheery, clattery little pizzeria moved down the block in summer 2009, more than doubling the space for crowds who love the simple and pure pies." Full review
Not For Tourists "The toppings are meals themselves. Pray there's no line."
