Woodward Table

Office Holiday Luncheon

We had show tickets and the wait staff went out of their way to ensure we left on right, but we're not rushed. The steak tartar was excellent, as was the Woodward salad. Our main course, the fried chicken and trout, were out of this world. We will absolutely be going back to this wonderful place. Our table was in a quiet room behind the bar area. Tables in the bar area, which we visited before dinner, were in the loud zone. Just a caution that conversation in those tables will be challenging.

We had a great time! Fabulous food and excellent service!

Excellent food and service. My go-to place for meeting friends for lunch.

We went in to celebrate our anniversary and ended up at five guys after because the food was underwhelming and lacked taste. Staff was very pleasant but the food was not as good as others made it out to be. We were expecting hot food prepared before it was sent out to us and what we received was reheated, warm fried chicken that you could see sitting on a rack in the kitchen with not that amazing Macaroni and cheese, decent collard greens, and a small muffin corn bread. We ordered the bread for the appetizer and it was their saving grace. It was hot and delicious. Unfortunately once the bread got to the table, our food was immediately there after. It felt like a place where they push you through to get the most customers in and out of the restaurant. I would recommend going somewhere else.

Always a great dining experience. Service is efficient and quick, the host team is always professional and responsive.

Best brunch ive ever had. Soup was amazing, service was fast would 10/10 return.

Woodward Table was 'simply the best' (cue Tina Turner voice). Our waitress was top notch and kept our bottomless drinks flowing throughout our whole stay. There were 7 of us who dined for brunch and most of us had the brunch special which included bottomless with an entree + appetizer or dessert. Super good deal and the food was very premium. Our occasion was just a girls brunch but I definitely recommend for any casual get-together/ occasion. They nailed it, and we can't wait to go back.

I’ve been here before for dinner and have always had a good experience. However, for brunch things seemed a little off. We had pretty bad service, had to wait forever for our food even though it wasn’t crowded and they forgot to bring one of our dishes. Our waiter was very inattentive and we had trouble tracking her down when we were ready to leave.

A very nice brunch spot with good southern -tinged food, attentive service and relatively quiet, spacious ambiance

Had brunch - fantastic again! The bottomless mimosa option - entree with a starter or dessert AND bottomless mimosa was a great deal! We had the eggs Benedict with smoked salmon and avocado. We love this dish!!

We went for family Thanksgiving dinner and everything was delicious!

All around it was a very nice Thanksgiving experience.

Customer service was very poor and slow. For party of 10 took for ever to get everyone’s plates the same time. Even some of the items on the menu were not available.
Food was pretty good but experience took that away.

The quality of the ingredients is lacking significantly for a restaurant of this type. Not even close to what you are paying for. Server disappeared and it took more than 40 min to get our food. It wasn’t even busy at that point.

Great restaurant with excellent salads and friendly atmosphere. Superb staff who have a welcoming attitude. Recommend highly.

Great spot for brunch! Food was great and the bottomless brunch option is a deal! $39.95 for appetizer and entree or entree and dessert plus bottomless mimosas and Bloody Mary’s. Can’t beat that!

Really unimpressed

Great food and service for a group of 7

Duck was GREAT! Expected better service for the price and reputation.

Standard fare, good food.

I was pleasantly surprised. The Parker house rolls were excellent and the southern salad was amazing .

Good menu featuring seasonal ingredients with a number of different fish and shellfish courses. The wine list was good with reasonably priced selections. Overall, this is a good choice if you're looking for something very near Lafayette Square.

The restaurant wasn't very busy which is never a good sign. A little uptight and the food was way overpriced. In my opinion if you are going to charge that much for food then proper dining manners should be followed such as, bringing everyone's meal at the same time (which did not happen). For the price, the quiet environment and awkward emptiness I would not recommend it.

Great service and delicious food!

Reserved a table for 10 for a pre-theater group dinner. While they didn't have a dedicated pre-theater menu, the regular menu offered some great options. Everyone loved the meal and the overall ambiance. The service was solid. We only had one complaint : we ordered a bottle of wine (Sirah) with dinner and liked it, so much that we decided to order 2 more bottles, but they were out. That first bottle was the only bottle they had. We had a similar experience with another bottle that we liked, they also had only had one bottle of that wine on hand. If a good, reasonably priced wine is on your wine list, you should stock up. Doesn't look good when you're telling guests that you're out of their wine selection twice during the same meal. Otherwise, we were happy with the meal and would recommend this restaurant for a group outing.

Prices have gone up significantly since I was last dining here in 2016. Basic sandwiches, lemonade and coffee for two was $80

Outstanding food, with really good presentation. Had a great night. Only issue was at the start, it did not seem like we had a server assigned to the table. That got cleared up and everything was right after that.

For the extreme price of $22.50, I expected my Eggs Benedict to be, at the very least, properly done. However, instead of a lovely poach, my eggs were hard-boiled. Our server was great, but the hostess was completely clueless, and even though the restaurant was practically empty, everything took excruciatingly long.

Food was delicious. The desserts were the highlight of the meal. Plenty of options for all dietary needs. Great service

The food was good as always and our waiter recommended an excellent wine that wasn't too pricey. Would definitely return.

Solid restaurant in a great location. This is conveniently located for a business lunch and does a nice job. My salad came with two generous pieces of chicken that were perfectly cooked. My guest's gnocchi was good but too small a portion for him - luckily I had extra chicken. Table service was nice and mostly prompt. The lunch hour is noisy and very busy - the front desk service felt a little like I was at a Greyhound bus terminal.

The food was OK but lacked the wow factor. Could have had more flavor to the Crabcakes.

The salmon special was amazing as was the duck. Great food for the prices and great servers

Typical hostess greeting if struggling to find your reservation even though it is at 915 on a Sunday night and only 5 other patrons in the restaurant. Acted like she was trying to squeeze us in a packed night. Then our waiter shared with us he was new but untrained.... so trying not to hold that against him; but holding it against the restaurant. Train your staff!!! Educate them on what is on the menu... literally everything our family of four ordered the waiter had to look at our menu and read it to see what we were ordering and what to ask us ... like oh you get a side and a sauce.... he had to read our menus for all of the apps/ entrees that we ordered! Menu stated they are known for their famous Parker House rolls.. but ran out when we ordered. The delivery team brought our apps out with our entrees... when I complained, they took our entrees away like we were weirdos for not wanting all of our apps and entrees at once... never mind their was not even room on our table for all of the dishes. Of course, then when we were ready to eat the entrees, they brought them back now cold and limp. I ordered a sparking wine off the menu and then the waiter told me they could not accommodate... but told me that they would bring me a Prosecco ... which totally fine except I said their is no Prosecco listed on the extensive wine menu and they said they know. And this was not like a special or unique specialty vineyard Prosecco... it’s the crap that you can buy at CVS... so weird! Need to up their game in this restaurant competitive city!!!

Birthday celebration was a blast! Simply great service! Antonio made sure that we all celebrated! Thank you!!!
