   Four of us dined there last night. We have all been there several times in the past and looked forward to returning. The drinks, wine, biscuits, deviled eggs, and salads were great as were the sides. BUT we were definitely mis-led and unhappy with the pork chops! While ordering our server tried to describe the sizes, etc. I think she over emphasized how much bones would weigh and we ordered a 50 oz and a 30 oz “medium rare” for the four of us to share. The meat was NOT medium rare but medium and the meat was pretty “gristly” and there was definitely way too much for us. We ended up taking a lot home. Generally not being “complainers” we mentioned that there was too much meat and we were not happy but the server said nothing. This was bad form. I do regret that we didn’t complain right then and there. I have written to the restaurant to make them aware that there are four unhappy diners may not be dining at St. Anselm again!

    Love the ambience, but it is a bit noisy. Unless you have booth you can expect to scream at each other. The food is just okay. I would only recommend as a pre-meet for drinks then dine elsewhere.

    My dad and I wanted something special, so we split the axe head steak. Let me tell you, it was absolutely worth the wait and the price; we agreed it was some of the best steak we've ever had, and we're both well-traveled foodies. There was actually too much for two people with good appetites, so I took it home and shared leftovers with my husband, who also adored this. Amazing!! While Dad and I waited for the main course, we each had a buttermilk biscuit and two blue crab deviled eggs--both phenomenal. A side of mushrooms were the perfect accompaniment to the steak. Above all else, our server Anne was a delight: friendly, knowledgeable, and exactly the right kind of attentive (great at reading when we were in deep conversation versus when we needed advice). I'm so excited to return to St. Anselm!

    Our waitress was amazing! She was so knowledgeable of the menu and very helpful. The food was delicious, my husband and I were craving food steak and we got just that! We were visiting DC and found out there’s one in Brooklyn (we’re from NY) we will definitely be giving it a try after the great experience at DC!

    Good service, and the outdoor seating “pods” are great. Would have rated the food higher, but my eggs were cold and the hot sauce comes in little packets, like you’d get in a fast food restaurant. WTH? It caused a spill on my shirt when I was wrestling with the packet to open it. Thank goodness for Wet Ones!

    The biscuits are the best part, and the deviled eggs were delicious also. We ordered the steak and it came out just as we expected it to. No crumbs left.

    The best service I’ve had in DC and one of the best meals I’ve had in the city. From the host stand, to the dining service, to the end of the night- everyone we interacted with had top-notch service. Food and wine was superb. Quickly made my top of list for restaurants in the city.

    We went for mother’s day! I booked this restaurant because it said it was family friendly, however I didn’t know how tiny it was. The staff were very friendly and welcoming though. Our steaks were cooked to our liking, the biscuits were perfection (ask for honey and butter on the side if you’re not a huge pimento cheese fan & thank me later), the smashed potatoes were a table fave, buttttt the creamy spinach was good but missing a bit of seasoning. I always have a cocktail and unfortunately I was not a fan of the tequila cocktail. It was rather bitter and very plain. However, we still enjoyed our night out!

    We got the side of mushrooms and they weren’t my favorite, but everything else was delicious! If you’re looking for a steakhouse — especially one that is quirky and ironically plans on the Americano steakhouse ambiance, and don’t mind paying for it — this is a great place to check out. It even had more seafood options that I was expecting!

    The food is just ok - the restaurant does not allow you to change the order. The way it's listed is the way you get it, no room for changes. Also, based on the quality of the food it's over priced. The drinks are also overpriced for what you get. I won't be eating here again nor would I recommend the restaurant to others
