I’ve been a huge fan of Carlyle Grand in Shirlington since I moved to the DC area in 2002. My favorite dish? Smoked Salmon with mashed cauliflower! Unfortunately I found out today that all but one of the Great American restaurants has gotten rid of the cauliflower (which was a wonderfully healthy option) and replaced it with mashed potatoes… Ouch! I can get mashed potatoes at ANY restaurant in the DMV but not cauliflower. Please Great American restaurants bring back the cauliflower. Please!!!

Should have been five stars but it all fell apart at the end. Server did a very nice job for dinner but missed one main course on check. Showing integrity on our side we pointed out the error nearly $40 plus $10 extra tip. (server was in training now) so supervisor took over 15 mins later I chased her down and her only comment “was everything ok”. Not after 15 minutes extra wait! no thank you for being honest. Real shame that honesty is not recognized by your brand.

My husband and I lived in Shirlington for years and Carlyle was one of our go-to restaurants; not just in the neighborhood but in the DC area. Service was always impeccable and you could count on the food always hitting the mark. We moved away a few years ago so were very excited to return for a dinner last night, and it was so disappointing. The service was slow (we cancelled our second cocktail order bc it hadn’t arrived before we wrapped up our dinner and the first cocktail was made poorly). My husband often got the crab cake and filet and it was very subpar this time - totally different crab cake recipe and the steak was just meh. Really hoping it was a blip but sharing this review in case it’s a theme and something needs to be done to turn the ship around. We want to love it again!

If you, like myself and likely every other DMV native under the age of 40, have been coming to Great American Restaurants since your first high school homecoming dance, you’ll also find it easy to take for granted what they do best: top-notch service of food made excellent thanks in part to a tidy, consistent menu. Carlyle is no exception on these fronts.
A few notes for improvement: add Ozzie rolls to the menu, and nix the freezer burn on the ice cream and the atrocious music selection. I like top forty hits as much as anyone else, but the soundtrack I was subjected to tonight would be unbecoming of even a strip mall Applebee’s.
I do love Great American Restaurants and would like to end on a high note. My server, Ovando, was an exemplar of courtesy. His warmth reminded me of why I keep a tradition of dining at Great American Restaurants when I visit home.

Normally the food and service is great so maybe it was an off night. The food was just ok. Our server was fine, but we also got a to-go order and they brought us a bag to our table and said here's your to-go order. It wasn't until we got home that we realized they had only given us the desserts, THEY left out the food. When we called both the hostess and manager said we left it, even though we tried to explain we never got it in the 1st place. At first they said it will be at the hostess stand, so we asked them if they could please make us a fresh meal since they left it out of the bag and it has been sitting out for over 30+ minutes. The server put us thru to the manager. The manager also said we left it and never apologized for the inconvenience or misunderstanding. It felt like we were asking too much to get fresh food. Had they said this is just the desserts or there is more food coming, I could understand. But, they said here is your to-go order. This was not the level of service I have come to know from the years of going to all the GARs.
