We did have an issue where we booked in advance and they said they did not see our reservation, we showed proof of the reservation and was actually reluctant about providing a table for 8 but the manager came out and resolved the situation.
Kudos to the manager.

My husband son and I were in DC from Milwaukee visiting my daughter's family and they suggested Patsys for dinner last week. Wow! Raw oysters and clams with a blood orange sauce was delicious! My son 11, only orders salmon when we eat out and he said it was the best he ever eaten! My meal was equally delicious as was my husbands. The waiter was great! We really had a wonderful evening!

Visited Patsys for lunch. Very busy, but reservation put us right into a table swiftly. Food service was prompt and wait staff were on the spot and attentive to our needs. Food was great. Would recommend this for anyone living or working in the area. Really unique atmosphere.

Was in the area for work and went by for lunch. Excellent choice, great atmosphere. Service was excellent, the food was delicious and on point. We did return for dinner once more and it was as excellent as our first trip. We are from The southeast and wish there was a place like this near us. Will definitely return.

Really nice restaurant for lunch or dinner! My husband and I went out for a lunch date and we really enjoyed the food here. Our main dish was really delicious, but the bread pudding was the real winner!! It was perfect!!
They have a lot of beers on tap and I’m definitely a beer girl— so I tried 2 different beers. 🍻
The building is so beautiful and well decorated. It reminded me of a train station in Europe. The staff were really nice and got our order in promptly. It was a lovely place to eat and we enjoyed ourselves. Can’t wait to come back again!
