    This was a fantastic place to watch the Liverpool game! The bartender was fantastic about getting people water and serving a full house as quickly as he could. Would absolutely recommend! No idea about the food though lol

    Cherry Chouffe
    Keilon L.

    Some of the best beers in the world from the best beer manufacturing country in the world, Belgium, and food to go with it...Yes, please. The bartender was great. She actually knew her beers and wasn't just back there pouring without knowledge (nothing bothers me more from a bartender; see one of my previous, very brief bar reviews). She convinced me to branch out to find some new flavors aside from my Chouffe preferences and I appreciate that. I also went with the steak sandwich option as opposed to the burger that initially caught my eye. It was a solid, but messy choice as the bread used falls completely apart spilling the sandwich everywhere. A proper French baguette would have been ideal as opposed to a soggy-ing hoagie roll. I got a dessert also, but mostly because I was teetering on drunk and needed something else to soak up the libations--enter the Belgian waffle. It wasn't memorable. It reminded me of the ones you get from the vending machine in the metro stations in Paris but luckily with less added sugar so that was appreciated. This was a solid spot with a small ruelle (alleyway) in Brussels kind of feel. I'll come back before the impending tariffs make it too expensive to import European alcohol.

    Bouillabaisse mussels with seafood, saffron, garlic, tomato
    Calder S.

    Granville Moore's is a DC institution that I've been going to on and off since about 2011. They are one of the best places in DC to get Belgian beer, mussels, and frites. On my recent visit, I shared two mussels ($26 each) and one frites ($10) among three people. This was enough food, especially with the bread they include for the mussel broth (we got three baskets). We had a couple beers to go along with it. We had the Champignons mussels with crimini, oyster, shitake & button mushrooms in white wine cream sauce plus the Bouillabaisse mussels with seafood, saffron, garlic, tomato. I usually get the classic Mariniere (white wine, garlic, herbs). Both types were good. The bouillabaisse reminded me of the Mariniere in terms of broth flavor. I didn't get any tomato. It came with some shrimp and white fish pieces. The champignons came with a cream sauce that wasn't too thick. It was also good but I wish I had a bit stronger flavor. One of the downsides of mussels as a food is that they are served in broth, yet the broth doesn't really stick to them. Bread is necessary to mop up the sauce. The fries were excellent: thin, extra crispy, perfectly salted. They come with dipping sauces but I didn't need them. Our beers were all good as expected. We had a few from the happy hour menu. GM offers a good happy hour with food discounts but I wish they offered a slightly better beer happy hour. The beers with the better discount ($5 or $7 each) are are canned, not much to my liking, and don't really represent their Belgian beer menu. A few other beers on draft are discounted only $1 which makes them steep at $12-$14 each. When I visited, they were out of a couple, further reducing the selection. Service was friendly if a bit slow, because one bartender was serving all the tables and manning the bar on the first floor. I love GM's decor -- a really old school, wood and brick spot. It's unique in DC. I would recommend it on the decor alone.

    Granville Moore's is a hidden gem (?) in the H Street Corridor, with amazing drinks, food and ambiance. I'm not sure if it's a hidden gem, but nobody I knew really talked about it much. This place deserves way more praise!! The Belgian beers are delicious as always, and the menu is extensive. Reminds me a lot of Monk's Cafe in Philly, which is also fantastic. Service here is really fast and friendly! The bartenders work super hard as do the kitchen staff. You can tell they've been around for a while and know what they're doing. To eat, I had the mussels and fries. I had never had mussels before, and they set a pretty high bar here! They were super tasty, and I really enjoyed being able to dip the fries in the yummy sauces they provide. I love the vibe in here. It's very old school pub-like, and I'd definitely come back if I'm in the area. Thank you Granville Moore's!

    This place is a gem located on H st , it resembles an Irish Pub, I bring all friends here and they love it. Food is excellent, happy hour is great and the dishes are pretty shareable. Great selection of yum beers, the service is pretty good as well. Make sure to try the mussels and the Brussels Sprouts.

    Beautiful historical building
    Brandis S.

    I stumbled upon this adorable restaurant/bar as an escape from the rain after a disappointing ramen meal. I was still hungry and was excited to find a Belgian restaurant, as there aren't any in the city where I live. I'm so glad I found Granville Moore's and I will definitely be back! I ordered the mussels mariniere and they were fantastic!! Incredibly flavorful, cooked perfectly, and served with delicious fresh bread to mop up the buttery garlic heaven left over in the bowl. The beer selection was extensive, but I didn't dive in during this visit. Service was quick and very friendly. The building itself has a tremendous amount of history, although I'm not sure what the story is as the historic sign was outside and it was raining when I visited. It was beautiful and created a unique atmosphere for a fun night out. I will definitely be back!

    Mariniere Mussels
    Matthew S.

    This was delicious. The mussels are said to be famous here and boy was that true! There was a generous portion in the bowl and it was sauced to perfection. The service was kind even with the room being a little cramped. I loved the Belgian atmosphere, like it was old Brussels! Recommend.

    My wife and I were hungry and wanted to go somewhere in the neighborhood. We heard about His & Hers…read moreand decided to stop by. We walked in on a Saturday afternoon and it was completely empty. The cook was sitting at one of the tables and the waitress was behind the bar (they don't serve alcohol) hoping someone would come in. There is an upstairs and a downstairs. We did not go downstairs but I'm assuming there are plenty of seats like upstairs. We ordered the hangry breakfast, which came with French toast, eggs and potatoes, the salmon burger and the chicken & waffles. It's a good thing we ordered so much becaus the chicken and waffles only comes with 4 wingettes. We ordered water but were told they were out of ice. Instead my wife ordered a $4 CANNED SODA because that is the only thing they had cold. $4 for a can is insane by the way. Since we were the only ones in the establishment we expected the food to come quickly but that seemed to take 20-25 minutes as well. Our food eventually arrived. The French toast was good. Flavorful but small. Sandwhich bag slices of bread. The potatoes were clearly from the Walmart frozen foot section. The eggs were ok. My wife's waffle was cool however the chicken was BLAND and SEASONLESS. We didn't even finish them. For $18 I expected more. The salmon burger was by far the best thing there. A thick cut of salmon that was flavorful. We should have gotten two of those. The waitress was nice. The food is overpriced. I should have known when we walked in and the place was empty. Not sure how they stay open having brunch without alcohol but to each is own. One and done for me as a neighborhood guy. The food isn't great and the prices are high. No reason to return.

They don't have typical bacon or sausage because "the owners don't eat pork" which really sounds like something more appropriate for their house, and not their restaurant business on Rhode island ave. The "chicken sausage" was a shriveled up piece of chicken paste that they cooked in the microwave. I ordered scrambled eggs, and when they came out, they had that crust that scrambled eggs get when they sit out after being cooked. The grits were lumpy and outside of the cheese sauce they put on the top - had no flavor. The French toast tasted like milk eggs and burnt grill. And the pancakes, were very obviously pre made and microwaved. Additionally - the meal I ordered is listed to come with a bread, eggs, a side and a meat. I asked for bacon, and was told the owners don't eat pork. I asked for the chicken sausage.. 5 minutes later the server asked me if I wanted the sausage spicy or not. Then when she brought the bill, there was a $4 up charge for spicy sausage that she neither told me, nor was it on the menu. And to make matters worse - the sausages were not spicy and were actually just flat out nasty. This is a SAD excuse for a restaurant. I'm sad that I spent calories walking there and dollars eating there.

Before getting to the food, I'll first rate the interior excellent. It's big and open, and has a modern yet rustic design, which makes it an excellent atmosphere. They had an impressive list of wines and cocktails, but the draft beer selection was limited. Could use a bit more variety on tap, but I enjoyed the Imperial IPA nonetheless. As for the food; all of it was on the pricey sized given the quality and quantity served, but the salmon collar was by far my favorite -- followed by the chicken, although the chicken was a bit less meaty than I expected. The gem salad, the carrots and the steak fries were all very "meh," and the bisques seemed like small ciabatta buns rather than actual biscuits. All that aside, the biggest disappointment was unfortunately the ax ribeye - it wasn't cooked properly (despite asking for med-rate, depending on the bite, it ranged from medium to very rare), and it was really stringy and fatty - a major disappointment for a steakhouse. Deserts were delicious, I really enjoyed the ice cream cake and thought the peanut butter pie was good. Service was great, prompt and friendly. So I definitely wouldn't recommend this place as a statehouse based on my experience, but would consider coming for the salmon.
