Best French Restaurants in Bloomingdale / Brookland

A wonderful birthday dinner which was made special by the servers and food staff.

Always perfection! I can’t recommend enough. The drinks and food were excellent and the staff is friendly and professional!

The food, service and presentation was fantastic and made for a wonderful experience. My only reservation was the dinning area felt a bit congested, and as a result, felt a bit confined and challenging to hear at times. This aspect was unfortunate to an otherwise great experience.

service was exceptional! attentive but not hovering. The French onion soup was the best I've had outside of France--not too much bread, delicious onion broth/onions and lots of perfectly browned cheese. Creme Brûlée and chocolate soufflé were also excellent, as were the quiche and salmon. Very good wine and cocktail menu, and the food menu, while not exhaustive, had variety and everyone in our party had trouble deciding between several dishes they were sure they would like. We went for late lunch and easily found street parking, but suspect that was luck, but Hotel Sonesta has a garage--did not ask if they validated parking. While not cheap, very reasonable for quality and quantity of food--portions were reasonable, but not the huge portions sometimes offered to make up for inferior quality at some restaurants. We were first-time diners but will definitely be back!

Our first experience dining at Chez Billy was delightful. It is an intimate restaurant with beautiful decor and attentive staff. The Caesar Salad and Onion Soup started our meal and were delicious ( the Caesar the best I’ve ever had). The Tuna and Duck entrees were perfectly prepared. We ended our dinner with the cheesecake and rice pudding … delish! Billy Sud is a little Georgetown gem.
