About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Good for business meals
  • Fancy
Charlie Palmer Steak Washington, DC, located in the United Brotherhood of Carpenters building, is dedicated to another fine master craft: bold American food. Under the direction of Executive Chef Zach Long, the menu not only stars the best American artisan beef cuts like an aged Angus Rib-eye "Cowboy" Steak but updated locally sourced seafood dishes, like Chesapeake Bay Oysters and Soft Shell Crab Fritto Misto.

Much more than a steakhouse, the timelessly stylish restaurant moves the political power meetings out of the back room and into private dining spaces, sleek enclaves of dark wood. Located off the wide, open expanse of the National Mall, Charlie Palmer’s Steak’s rooftop terrace can accommodate 400 guests for private events, offering the city’s most impressive view of the Capitol.

    Felt rushed through our meal. Had to send some things back that came out cold. Food was good but for the price we won’t go back. Many many great steak houses in the area.

    Pretty disappointed with our experience here. We had high expectations and were let down across the board. 1. Arrived and were seated at a beautiful table by the window. But, then awaited a greeting from our server to take a drink order for at least 5-7 minutes. 2. Ordered our food. It came out at a reasonable time, but the filet minon was the most fatty piece of steak I've ever gotten at an upscale steakhouse. The server also not once returned to ask how our steak was cooked. That has honestly never happened to me. 3. Our drinks were gone shortly after our entrees arrived. Our server never returned to ask if we would like another cocktail 4. We had finished our meals, plates and drinks were cleared. 15 minutes later our server arrived with dessert menus. We said we had been done for quite some time and just wanted to leave. Ultimately, I would have much rather spent our $280 literally anywhere else. We will not be back.

    Noise came from eating outside — and bad luck of street construction. “Steak frite” was very un-French to the point that a French person might turn up their nose — but much tastier and more interesting, so maybe delight to those who simply appreciate great taste and texture (even a little panko?)!

    Perfect evening from start to finish! Lamar was a talented and friendly bartender and made both of us extraordinary cocktails. Kitty was our server and went out of his way, truly above and beyond to make our evening special! Great staff, phenomenal food and drinks and wonderful atmosphere! We will be back for sure… thank you all for a very memorable evening!

    Very disappointing! I will not recommend this place for a special occasion. The staff especially the server Kitty did not even make an effort to wish my 12 year old happy birthday! They were very plane Jane about the whole experience and as a result we were underwhelmed. Though a very pricey place but there was no wow factor. They could not even do a cheap dessert and candle! Never going back!
