   The food is scrumptious, the room beautiful and classy, the service professional and nonintrusive, the wine list extensive and reasonably priced -- and you can have a civilized conversation without shouting (what a concept). It's not trendy, but it's tranquil and old school terrific.

   PrivTe wine cellar for party pf 8. Private experience was fantastic, but overall food and service were good but not great compared to DC brunch and its notoriety.

   Welcoming maitre d’. Informed and skilled wait staff. Creative menu. Deliciously prepared and beautifully presented dishes (salmon tartare, zucchini soufflé with crab, duck breast, lamb loin, mango sorbet, chocolate financier). Elegant and reasonably quiet setting. Motown soul music in the background a surprising choice and incongruent with the otherwise upscale dining environment. But at least the music was not intrusively loud. A few more patrons would have energized the vibe, but the almost empty dining room allowed fully audible table conversation at normal speaking volume — rare in DC eateries. Will return as often as the budget allows.

    I took my wife here for a Mother's Day breakfast a few days before and so it was relatively quiet. We order the french toast with blueberry sauce, the lemon pancakes, and the three-egg omelet, akd a side of bacon. Although the side of bacon was $10 we did get several strips. I thought the food was pretty good, we shared everything. I wasn't much of a fan of the lemon pancakes but my wife loved them! Our waiter, Abdul was great! The best thing was after our meal we ask the hostess Khadija to take some photos of us and it turns out she's pretty good at that! Took some lovely photos! Great place for that. I would recommend going here to any of my friends!

    Just the service was not... right. I dont even know what was it...? So me and my husband went here for breakfast. We made reservation and the staff there took us to the seat. While we are eating a lady came to us and ask us, "Hi,,, did you make reservation?" I mean... yeah, and what's gunna happen if we didnt? We are already eating food. And even when we got our card and recipt,... i don't know.. felt kinda bit rude... i didnt really expect this poor service at the jefferson. I will never come back.

    Came for Easter brunch and the whole experience was so underwhelming. The place is beautiful, but that was really the only positive. For $135 a person we expected a lovely brunch, but the Prix fixe menu was poor. The starter course was not good, my mom had to send her lobster bisque back because it was so bad. The blueberry French toast was good. The mains were merely so so. The service was very slow. Our waiter wasn’t very attentive. There was one lady who was overseeing the restaurant, I didn’t catch her name, but she was wonderful. Our bill with tax and tip for 5 people was over $900 and we didn’t even get alcohol. It was honestly insane. Just a bad experience and would NEVER recommend the greenhouse for a prix fixe menu special occasion.

    Staff was extremely friendly and a joy to be around. The cocktails were extremely expensive at $25 each and not especially better than anywhere else. The food was beautifully presented, but left me feeling hungry. My dish of seared duck breast came with a few peas and undercooked radishes. The duck breast was perfectly cooked and absolutely delicious. The lamb was perfectly cooked and came with herbed spaetzle, which were delicious, too. Dessert looked outstanding, however the chocolate financier was too dry and dense and the Matcha tea cake came with a yuzu foam that was much too bitter. I wished the cherry ice cream with cherries could have been part of the dessert, rather than just served as an afterthought on the side. To be fair, 'The Greenhouse' had only just re-opened after the long Covid spell. Staff were truly amazing!

    This is a very lovely restaurant. The setting is just beautiful, and the service was flawless. We enjoyed our meals greatly. I had the filet mignon and asked for medium rare. The steak was cooked perfectly and the accompaniments were both beautifully presented and delicious. My husband got the salmon and it too was exceptional. As guests at the Jefferson Hotel, where The Greenhouse is located, we also had breakfast at The Greenhouse twice. The offerings and the service were just as amazing for breakfast. I highly recommend this restaurant. It is expensive, but you get what you pay for.

    The lamb, drinks and deserts were great. The Stripped Bass outstanding but the pairings of Squash and Soybeans very very bland. But that fish and lamb best ever. Pricey but worth it

    We ate here while staying at the hotel and were delightfully surprised by the entire experience. The food was creative, very beautiful and delicious. We particularly liked the crab and zucchini souffle, but everything was a big hit with us both. The spacing of the tables allowed for conversation which is a big plus.
