   It was fantastic to finally experience dinner at The Monocle! From the moment we walked in the door to the beautiful and classy interior we knew we’ve made the right choice for our dinner! The staff was very helpful and attentive while not being at all obtrusive throughout the evening. We both loved the flavorful shellfish bisque which was very generous with pieces of lobster, crab & shrimp. I chose the jumbo lump crabcake with special sauce for my entrée and it was truly delicious and the fresh crisp vegetables on the side were delightful. My husband greatly enjoyed his perfectly cooked filet mignon with red wine sauce. We shared the lemon curd pie for dessert and it was just the right ending for a wonderful! We look forward to our next trip back so that we can dine here again.

   My wife and I had a wonderful birthday celebration tonight thanks to the efforts of Nick and our waiter Marinos. The only shortcoming was that my steak was cooked medium instead of well done as I had ordered it. Because we were treated so well by the restaurant staff, I didn’t want to make a big deal by saying anything let alone sending it back. Still, I hope the kitchen staff will be more attentive in the future.

   Had made reservations but host (master of the house) made us wait for 10 minutes. When he showed up, he was very unpleasant and he gave no apology for making all of us wait to be seated. There was a waiter serving just water who didn’t come around to fill up our glasses. Our food was not exceptional considering the price: the vegetable pasta had a sauce that was too watery, the seafood bisque had no flavor and our steaks were simply overcooked. The cognac sauce was the only part of the meal I enjoyed. Very disappointing experience

   Fantastic is an understatement. From the drinks and starters right through to dessert, this place is an A plus! Great service and attention to every detail. Cannot recommend enough!

   Went here for dinner with good expectations based on reviews. Good vibe and interior. Started well with drinks and wine. Placed our order then nothing. 70 minutes to get our meals. My wife's and adult daughter's dishes were perfect, but my chicken dish was dried out and had been under the warming lights. I could have gotten this at Red Robin for a lot less. Then it took 30 minutes to get a check. Service was good, but the kitchen did not perform. Will not go back.

   Whether you have lived in the D.C. area for decades but have never sampled The Monocle, or you here for only a few days visit, check out this wonderfully cozy place with great food and photos on every wall of famous politicos who have dined there. And Nick, the host, will remember your name from now on!
