Clyde’s of Georgetown: A Classic American Dining Experience in Washington, DC

We were recommended to come here by our jeweler, & we are so happy we popped in! It is such a cool atmosphere, inside & outside. The staff was incredible from the hosts to our server! Food was wonderful. I highly recommend stopping here if you’re in town! It’s very unique inside & all the artwork is awesome too.

As always, great service, food , and drinks ! Might be a short wait to be seated but is worth it. Parking might be challenging but there are always spots to park in the residential areas a few blocks above. 7.5 out 10 overall review.

Delicious food!! We all loved our dishes and drinks. I ordered the Sangria and Chicken Marsala Fettuccine, and it was absolutely divine. The atmosphere was very nice, a little bit loud because of the bar. The service was nice, a little slow to get our check and boxes but the food and drinks came out timely. Overall a great dinner.

Clyde’s is an American staple we always take friends and family to when they’re visiting. The Clyde’s Classic Burger, Jumbo Lump Crab Cake, and Crab & Artichoke Dip are absolutely divine — a must-try every time. The drinks are strong and the atmosphere is always fun!

So, we decided to walk over to Clyde’s and give them a shot after making perfume at Olfactory NYC. It was a really nice day out, so we committed to sitting outside. Unfortunately, with the decision to sit outside, the hostess temporarily forgot about us which added a little bit more time to our wait. Once we were seated, we selected the hummus as our appetizer, which was okay. I then desired something light, which led me to the grilled chicken salad. The grilled chicken salad was truly paired well with all of the veggies etc making me an immediate fan of this salad. Overall, the convenience of the location of Clyde’s directly next to Olfactory NYC, paired with healthy/ tasty, light salad options made this decision a win for us.

We had such a lovely meal at Clyde’s in Georgetown! The atmosphere feels classic and cozy with that old-school charm — perfect for a relaxed lunch date. I ordered the steak frites, which came perfectly cooked with a creamy mustard sauce and crispy golden fries — absolutely delicious. My boyfriend got the bacon cheeseburger, and he loved it! Juicy, flavorful, and cooked just right. We started with the jumbo shrimp cocktail (super fresh and sweet) and finished with an espresso and a slice of cheesecake topped with cherries — the perfect ending to the meal. Service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing, and everything came out beautifully presented. Overall, Clyde’s is a great spot for classic American comfort food with a touch of elegance. We’d definitely come back!

Service was great. Were seated right away and the table was in the back, so less noisy (as some said this restaurant can get). Oktoberfest beer was good. Steak was good, and so was salmon salad. I had parmesan trout, which was okay. Will try the burger next time.

I went to Clyde’s for brunch and had the most amazing time! We sat quickly, our waiter was attentive, and the food was delicious. I got the steak and frites but substituted for the mashed potatoes on recommendation from our waiter. SO good! And we got the baked oysters and a mocktail. Definitely will be back!
