I had heard a lot about what a wonderful brunch Tabard Inn served. I experienced it today and was not impressed. We were seated promptly in what I suppose is the main dining room. It is too crowded and much too noisy. And people running around all the time. Our server was pleasant, brought drinks and took orders in good... more

if the weather's nice, definitely request to eat outside on the parachute covered patio. Both the crab cakes and the salmon were excellent. We were a bit disappointed that the chocolate creme brulee wasn't on the menu for the evening (they change it every day), but we got the chocolate torte instead and it was amazing! more

I don't eat seafood or lamb, duck or other furry animals that might look cute on easter. There was 1 chicken dish on the menu - and it was all dark meat - ick. Ended up getting the rib eye, which was good, but at $32, not really what I wanted. Our server was very indifferent & MIA throughout. Never... more

On our recent trip to DC we decided to try out the Tabard Inn for brunch. Before leaving home we made reservations for Sunday Brunch and a couple of days before we arrived to DC we made reservations for Saturday Brunch as well. We were not disappointed. We were promptly seated at the time we arrived and the food (both... more

I had heard nice things about this place so we walked across town to get there for Sunday brunch. Our party arrived at 9:55 as did another party. The hostess was so rude and she wouldn't seat either of our patries saying that they don't seat people after 10am. We explained we had been walking for 20 minutes to get... more

Late June 2009, we stayed in a room at the Tabard Inn and had made reservations the month before for dinner the first night. It was very good. The crab cakes in particular satisfied me greatly. Service was very accommodating. When we were unsure about which of two white wines to order by the glass, the waiter offered to bring... more

Didn't honor our reservation. In the morning, three hours prior to our reservation, we received a phone call saying that "the reservation system was down and so they wouldn't honor reservations." When we arrived, we discovered there was NO RESERVATION SYSTEM - simply penciled phone reservations - our name had been removed for no reason, although other reservations were honored.... more
