    The food and service at Cedar is very good. A little pricey but the norm for this area. I would recommend.

    My experience was good, but not outstanding. I enjoyed the variety on the menu (both vegan and wild game options make it an accessible restaurant for various diet preferences). The pace was relaxed and perhaps even a little slow for how empty the restaurant was on a Monday evening, but it did make for a relaxing evening with friends.

    Amazing service, food, and ambiance. We went on a quiet Monday evening for my birthday and were not disappointed! The Vegan dishes did not leave me wanting.

    Love the three course pre-theatre dinner offering. It's perfect and a great value. Cedar remains one of our favorite restaurants in DC.

    Delightful; excellent food and service! Well-stocked bar; limited wine list but good selection - we chose an Oregon coast pinot noir at a reasonable price. Couple of wine selections were a bit overpriced from my perspective. Tony
