    Came for lunch on a week day. No wait to be seated. Then, It got really busy after we ordered our food. Beautiful ambiance, delicious food and came in good portions. The lady led us to the seats were not very friendly, no smile at all. Then our coffee drink was forgotten. But made up later and was on the house. Waiter service was great. He was efficient and knowledgeable of the menu. Prices for the quality of the food is reasonable. Loved the cocktails, was refreshing and not sweet. Foodies of @WineDinenVacay do recommend this place, & hope to see improvements in certain parts of the service.

    Sixty Vines is a grata place ode happy hour or after work drink/dinner with friends. The tap selection is vast and the food is solid. Our party had a couple of appetizers including the burrata crostini, roasted Brussels sprouts, side of fries, bacon wrapped dates and crispy zucchini. The beet and herbed goat cheese salad was a very healthy portion with tons of golden, red and rainbow beets however was light on the goat cheese and was a bit under dressed. A bit more goat CB ese and dressing would have made this the perfect salad, as it was well balanced in flavor when eaten all together. The fig snd prosciutto pizza was good. With arugula topping the pizza for some pepperiness and generous amount of prosciutto on it. Only criticism is there were very few figs on the pizza and the prosciutto wasn't cut in a way conducive to pizza sharing as some slides got all the prosciutto and others didn't get any even though the slides were made, the ham was not cut through. Overall a decent spot for dinner with coworkers. Fast service and casual, yet refined atmosphere make sixty vines a solid choice for a weekday happy hour or dinner

    Pretty high end and expensive. But the restaurant is very trendy for young people. Great list of wine, had an amazing server. I recommend the pizza!!!

    I came here in search of a delicious frosé after hearing it was one of the best spots for one to and it definitely lived up to the hype. They also make an excellent Hugo Spritz. The space is large, bright, and airy, with plenty of seating and beautiful natural light streaming through the floor-to-ceiling windows. Our waitress, Kelsey (I believe that was her name), was friendly, attentive, and personable, which made the experience even better. The drink menu offers an impressive selection of wines and cocktails, so there's something for just about everyone. The food was equally enjoyable. We ordered one of the charcuterie boards, which was generous and satisfying, and I appreciated that the menu features plenty of shareable dishes that are perfect for groups or a casual outing. Overall, it's a great spot for drinks, light bites, and catching up with friends. I'd happily return.

    Came for brunch on a Saturday, surprised at how quiet it was but grateful since we had our newborn with us. Great space and vibes for brunch with some good deals on cocktails and wine. We loved the frozen espresso martini and matcha martini! Thought the food was good (not great). But would come back again just for the atmosphere and drink options!

    The happy hour food is worth going here! The shared plates portions are very generous. If you're doing happy hour with a friend, you probably only need two shared plates. We got the truffled fries and the toasted cauliflower. The fries were excellent! Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The cauliflower lacked flavor in my opinion because I make and eat a lot of cauliflower, and I season mine, so I'm critical of roasted cauliflower. The whipped eggplant was also bland, but the grilled flatbread was fantastic! The interior is very beautiful and perfect for a stunning day, because of all the windows. And the bar staff were attentive and kind. Overall, a good day for experience, I just needed more flavor on the food.

    Great place for large groups. Beautiful interior and SO many wines on tap. What a cool concept?? I have never seen this before. I loved it. Our server was great and was super helpful and knowledgeable of the menu. Allowed me to try wines to find what I would like. Great experience

    Broccoli/potato pizza

    Sixty vines is a really fun experience. The space is beautiful, open, and has a great menu of both food and drinks. My most recent visit was for brunch and I ordered the rigatoni. It was good, but nothing amazing. I wouldn't order it again. I also found the presentation to be a bit wonky, like someone prepared it tilted. Our server was great, although give ln how large the space is, and how quickly it fills up, it was a bit difficult to grab his attention for our check. We were all siting with empty drinks and no plates ready to go for at least 20 minutes. Overall , the experience is good and continues to be good. I would say my preference is lunch or happy hour time frame. One note is that they just changed their menu so my beloved, favorite pizza pictured is gone. I would say their menu became more generic whereas prior there were a lot of different and unique options. My friend and I were both disappointed to find our faves missing (her a pasta).

    The dates

    I've been wanting to try this place for a long time and finally made it. I loved the atmosphere, decor, and the service. We started off with the bacon wrapped dates and the brussel sprouts. Both were really good...I just wish there were more of the dates...lol.

    Roasted Cauliflower

    I love Sixty Vines! It's a fantastic location- great if you want to meet friends. Metro accessible to Foggy Bottom Station, close to the shuttle to the Kennedy Center for a pre-show meal as well. Very green and vibey, lively and smells incredible (they have their signature candle for sale), has lots of options that suit tons of dietary needs. I love all of their vegetable based share plates the most- cauliflower with the most scrumptious eggplant dip, the crisp little zucchini, tangy and crispy Brussels sprouts...I've brought two different groups here visiting town, as they're fantastic with groups because of the nice big tables. Love this spot!

    Checked out Sixty Vines again on Valentine's Day with my bestie, and it was such a vibe! We didn't have a reservation, but we were seated right away, which was a pleasant surprise. The service was great from the moment we sat down until we left. Special shoutout to Serenity, one of the managers, who made it a point to check on guests (including us) throughout our meal. She made sure we had everything we needed and even invited us back so my bestie could experience more than just the mussels since we were on a time crunch that night. And let me tell you -- the mocktail was spectacular! The ambiance here is always amazing. You really get the best of both worlds: wine-tasting energy paired with delicious food and great vibes to enjoy with friends. The décor is top tier and sets the perfect mood for any occasion. Fast forward to today -- we went back for brunch and let's just say... we'll definitely be back again The salmon board was out of this world! Everything was seasoned to perfection. Our pastas were delicious as well. My friend enjoyed the mimosa bar experience (you get a bottle of Champagne with a variety of juices and fresh fruit to mix at the front). I stuck to the juice but I did try the non-alcoholic sparkling rosé, and it was amazing! We made sure to save room for dessert, and I'm so glad we did because it was even better this time around. The chefs, servers, and managers truly did their thing. And another huge thank you to Serenity for her amazing service again!

    Had a fantastic Valentines Day lunch here. We ordered the margherita pizza, rigatoni, hummus, and enjoyed a flight of wines. Highly recommend for Italian + Wine Sipping in Georgetown! (FYI - Highly recommend the hummus, especially the beet hummus. It is FIRE.) We got 4 glasses at about 2.5 oz each, which was fairly reasonable. My husband and I enjoyed savoring each. From the moment, we walked in, the hostress greeted us with a smile. Also, our server, Stephanie, was attentive and cheerful, even though her section was incredibly busy. Her ability to multi-task and check in regularly even in a rush is admirable. (She quickly resolved my question, helped us find wines, and even asked me what my plans were, which was thoughtful and the kind of outstanding care you don't see too much these days.) I would 100% return to Sixty Vines.

    braised pork Tagliatelle
    Isaac W.

    Came here for a group dinner. Ambiance is fantastic, great for a date night. A little bit loud to be honest. Service was good, but Friday night was busy. My dish was pretty delicious, but I think a braised beef would be better than braised fork for the tagliatelle dish. Overall, i think this is a great place to dine if you live in Foggy Bottom, which is a food desert wasteland.

Nice place if you care mostly about atmosphere, but for me, it's not worth a second visit. Seating & Service: I reserved a high-top for two on a Sunday night, and luckily got seated at a private table rather than the communal table. It's unclear to me which reservations are for the communal table. The waitstaff were very polite and attentive. They also didn't rush us out and let us linger, which I appreciate (but this may be because there wasn't a reservation right after us). However, I do wish that they provided more detail about the menu and drinks without having to be prompted. We had to inquire about recommended dishes, suggested wine pairings, and portion sizes ourselves. Food: FYI, the dinner menu generally goes in order of size, with the smaller plates at the top and the larger plates towards the bottom. As expected, prices per dish also increase as you move down the menu. All the menus (including prices) change frequently so don't rely on the menus on the website to guide you. We ordered the Warm Manifest Bread ($9), Miso Caesar Salad ($19), Dry Aged Beef Tartare ($23), and the Escargot ($24) plus one cocktail ($18), a glass of wine ($16), and dessert ($15). For these prices and based on other reviews, I expected every bite to be fantastic, but the portions were very small and the quality and taste were average. The escargot was a little too salty for my taste and was strangely hidden under a puff pastry. I enjoyed the tartare the most, but it only came with three small pieces. I had high expectations, but sadly Maison fell short.

Firstly, I really have to commend the staff.  They were so attentive and thoughtful.  Our server, for example, brought an extra little light to our table when she saw we were struggling to read the menu in the low light. They were great about checking with us, keeping the water glasses filled and anticipating other needs such as a bag when we wanted to take some of our meal home.  Everyone was very kind and this added so much to our meal.  We enjoyed our progressive meal which reflecting the chef's heritage from both Italy and Brazil.  Our starting mocktails of the ploughman's surprise and the fermented peach soda were good.  The peach soda had a great amount of fizz but could have used a little more peach.  Maybe the nectar just sunk to the bottom and by the time we drank that far, the ice had diluted it.  We preferred the ploughman's surprise, which, coming with no ice (yah!) stayed flavorful to the very end.  Our app of grilled peaches and burrata was tasty but we actually preferred it eaten as its separate components rather than together where the burrata seemed to overpower the other flavors.  Special shout out to the sourdough crisp on top.  Super crunchy and delicious!  The bread was also a stand out in the panzanella.  This dish had a great kick from the jalapeno and was fresh and refreshing.  For our third dish - the bread also was really good.  This time it was garlic knots which everyone looked forward to the moment that garlic aroma arrived at our table.  The summer lasagna came with a very light and slightly sweet tomato sauce which only made us wish we had even more bread!  The main entrée was the picanha steak.  It was very well cooked and though not as hot temperature wise as we would have liked, it was really good even just warmed.  The oven roasted potatoes were just right and the chimichurri sauce was very good (anther longing for more bread - can you see a theme?...)  Dessert was a soft and custardy on the inside corn cake with  mascarpone and espresso dulce de leche.  Although I couldn't taste much of the coffee flavor, the dish was another example of Reveler's Hour comfort food wheelhouse.  The food and the service at Reveler's Hour are definitely worth coming back for.  Next time, we might try to sit towards the front where there is more light from the windows.  There is a small outdoor public lot a block away.

    Love the ambiance of this place with the decor, live vinyl dj, and a pool table upstairs. They have…read morea pretty standard cocktail menu but a whole lot of wines to choose from. I enjoyed my drink and it was the perfect bar for catching up with a friend. I'll definitely think about trying the food next time however, like the drinks, it's very expensive for "bar food" and an automatic 20% fee is added to every check regardless of your party size. The music gets louder later into the night and the crowd seems to be more in the mood to dance so just keep that in mind when deciding on what time to go! Overall if you're in the area Le mont royal is worth stopping by.

    History of Present Indulgence: We came for dinner in a group…read moreof 8 to celebrate our friend's birthday before heading out for a cabin weekend in West Virginia. I was very excited about the French-Canadian, always-changing menu. Physical Exam: Taste - The Prime Rib Sando was a preemo sandwich of balanced cheese and meat between two slices of toasty sourdough. The Cheeseburger Americain was a standard 3.5 out of 5 American cheeseburger that beats the average suburban chain restaurant burger with its double patty and sesame bun, but isn't gonna knock your socks off like a steakhouse burger. The poutine kept my socks on too (I was particularly excited about the poutine and ended up a tad underwhelmed). The biggest disappointment was the mozzarella sticks, which...... I'll just get to in the service part. Cocktails were mid. All interesting concepts, but most missed the mark. the Polar Express was a little too sweet, I forgot what the name of the riff on an old fashioned or Manhattan I had but that was okay, and the Fleur de Citron tasted like when you ask for a Sprite and they ask, "Is Sierra Mist (now Starry) okay?" and you reply, "yeah that's fine," but then what you get is actually a flat 7-Up. Ambiance - This place runs on vibes like America runs on Dunkin'. Live DJ, neon lights, feels like a place you wanna eat a little, dance a little, drink a little. Fun place. Tanked by the service. Skip to the Assessment/Plan if you don't want to read this novella retelling of our evening. Service - Relatively early for the dinner service, we were the largest and one of only a few tables in the restaurant. I counted 3 other tables seated (small parties of less than 4 each) and a few patrons at the bar. It took about 20 minutes before we first got our menus and the guy who handed them to us didn't say a word just dropped them off. Then it took another 20 minutes before he came back to get our drink orders, and 1) seemed like he was having a bad day, which... fine, but 2) was rolling his eyes when some of us were a little between some options and wanted a recommendation, which... alright my guy let's chill. We weren't talking loud, we weren't drinking before and being obnoxious, we just wanted to ask about what some of the drinks were like on a very cool menu of cocktails we haven't tried anywhere else. Upon returning with our drinks, he accidentally spilled a not insignificant amount on my friend sitting across from me, and while we reacted and started handing him extra napkins, he just glanced at him, finished giving out the drinks, and walked away. No "oops", "my bad", "oh let me get you some paper towels", nothing. So at this point, we're all staring at each other like "Did we do something? Do we smell?" Whatever, friend's birthday, we've been talking about this cabin weekend for several years and it's finally happening, let's just vibe. Now another 20 minutes went by and we were getting antsy because we wanted to order our food but it looked like there wasn't a lot of staff, and we didn't want to upset anyone by hurrying them. Another man came over who we thought was going to take our orders. Nope. He starts picking up our menus so I say, "Oh, hey we haven't ordered yet." To which he replies, "OK, but I need the menus." Alright cool, yeah, that makes sense if he needed them for other tables and can leave us with a few to share. Nope. He just took them and placed them back at the host stand. Awkward stares across the table again. Whatever, we had enough, I guess. Tick tock, tick tock. A third guy came over, and when he smiled and asked, "Hi are you all ready to order?" I was like "Oh finally a human being!" Food took another 20-ish minutes while we nursed our drinks and really had no interest in ordering another round (not that anyone asked us). We ate. We chatted. We had an okay time. We were super ready to get out of there. Oh right, the mozz sticks. Le Mont'zarella sticks. They had one order left of four sticks for $18. We were one of the first diners. You can imagine after all the above, that's just a major facepalm emoji. Assessment/Plan: Hail Mary full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God pray for Le Mont Royal to improve their service, now and at the hour of ASAP, because the place has so much potential, and maybe it was just an off night, or the staff just finished arguing with each other in the back so they took it out on us, but dearly beloved Lord it was like we offended nine generations of their ancestry from the moment we walked in. With "a 22% service charge has been added for your convenience," I thought we were getting Punk'd. The always-changing French-Canadian menu is a cool and unique concept, but it's a lot of bark with very little bite. It didn't make the disappointing service worth it.

    What a delightful brunch! I met coworkers here and was able to share some appetizers and more. We…read moreagreed to share escargot and this goat cheese ball. We received two lovely bags of bread... I will say, I thought there was more in the bags than there actually was, but I loved that presentation haha. I decided to branch out from brunch norms and get this Manhattan ... The Ba'Nanhattan. The notes were very nutty and it had dried bananas in it, I loved it! I tried my coworker's cucumber drink, and as someone who does not like cucumbers, I couldn't deny how refreshing and summery that was. I was on the fence about a couple of entrees, but I decide to get the BECC... Bacon egg & cheese croissant. WHEW! That thing was so flaky and every ingredient was simply delicious. I was the only one at the table that didn't get potatoes with my entree... I went for the fruit instead. Little did I know that it was going to be all melons. I only started liking watermelon last year, and that was fine, but the cantaloupe?? I still don't like it. I could have asked to swap out but I didn't want to be difficult. And I didn't ask what kind of fruit it was, so that is on me. After this brunch experience, I'll be curious to come on other occasions. Happy hour, dinner.... I usually don't go for French food, but I liked what I had and I would definitely return.

The food came out pretty quickly; I just wasn't impressed with it. I ordered a happy hour cocktail - the tequila honeysuckle. I was told it is tequila with ginger, honey and a touch of lime juice - it tasted really watered down. no bite from ginger or tart from lime at all. I should've went with the wine which my companions had and enjoyed, after all it is a wine bar. They offered a DC restaurant week menu even though restaurant week hasn't officially started so that was a nice surprise. For my three courses. I had the tomato and peach salad, the steak frites and the Peach Melba. The fruit seemed to be under ripe, so the tomatoes and peaches in both dishes were very firm and not sweet. In fact, I could barely cut the peach in the Peach Melba with a spoon and so I took two bites of it before I called it quits. The frites were very good. I ordered the steak medium but it was a little overdone, not juicy and underwhelming in flavor. Overall, I enjoyed the visit because it was a great opportunity to catch up with my companions, but if I come again, I think I'll just stick to wine.
