It happened again! The Bistro food is fine. But, I staying at the hotel alone this trip,made a trip to the restaurant, then was treated like a 2nd class citizen. I have not been offered or received anything to drink. I'm sitting at a tiny child sized table because I was told the large party here had the rest of the restaurant set aside. Well, from where I sit, there are two empty tables and no one in the group is eating. Thus, it is another time when , as a woman dining solo, I get bad service. I know this restaurant can do better because I have eaten here with my husband at least twice and

This restaurant was in my hotel so it made it easier to stop here when I arrived on the last Wednesday of July. The part of the restaurant where I met all of my sisters was more of a bar type location rather than a sit down location.

I ordered two different appetizers for my meal. I got the fries and the chicken wings. I had been informed by the sisters that I joined that I had to always ask for what I wanted because there was like one waiter.

The chicken wings and fries came out hot. Though the wings had some charred parts, they were pretty good. They had some spicy green sauce on them and

This is a very interesting place for a get together and I was not impressed by the exterior of the hotel but they allow group reservations on a Friday evening and that's tough in DC. We had a little class reunion here and because we were sharing the bar area, it was tough to hear the speaker. The bar seating behind the large pillar is awkward but it's more about the company we keep right?

They had a decent selection of bar food and the drinks were just fine:
- Chicken Wings
- Crab Balls
- Veggies with Hummus
- Crispy Calamari
- Crispy Brussel Sprouts

Don't really know about their regular dishes but the food quality for their catering isn't that great. Their great ambiance and friendly service made up for it though. Was here for a big group dinner and cocktail reception. The hors d'oeuvre were amazing. Beautifully created as well as delicious. The little area for outdoor reception was by the swimming pool (which was closed) and was quite nice. They had outdoor heaters (the weather was getting chilly).

Circle Bistro is in the basement with little natural light. However, their ambience made up for it, and this place must feel

This spot holds a special place in our family. 11 years ago my husband and I ate here after getting engaged at the U.S. Botanic Garden! We recently went back for a nostalgic dinner and the service was fantastic. The best thing about the meal was the wine & cheese pairing- probably the best I have had in the city, and we have done a few. I actually snapped a picture of the descriptions so that we can look for each of them later. Outstanding dinner! Thanks for taking care of us on our special night!

We had just checked into our hotel and were so tired we wanted something to eat without having to go very far. We realized this bistro was downstairs so we decided to give it a try. When we arrived they were still serving breakfast so we ordered an omelet and french toast. Both came out pretty quick and we were satisfied with our meals. Five stars for the convenience of not having to go very far and for the food and service.

Convenient if you're staying at the hotel. The good is just ok. The bar has a few tvs so you can just hang and enjoy some drinks. The wine menu is pretty good.

We had my daughter's wedding rehearsal dinner here. Great location. Extremely slow and disorganized service. Apparently the concept of a steak knife to go with the steak they served was something beyond their capability. I get that all the steaks were cooked to medium without asking since it was a large group but come on, a freaking knife? The chicken and salmon meals were also uninspired. Not again.

I met a client at CB for lunch. The bar area was relaxing and inviting and the wait staff was prompt and friendly. Most importantly the food was outstanding. I had the French onion soup and duck confit salad. Let me start with the soup. Yes, even TGIF has a French onion soup, a lot of places have a FOS...but few of those restaurants get it right. Usually you find yourself the victim of soggy bread, gloppy cheese and over or under seasoned. CBisto's FOS was excellent. Each component was well executed and the broth of the soup was excellent. Now let's talk about the salad. I wanted to lick

I must say that I am only reviewing the bar because I did not eat there.
It was a Wednesday around 6p and I couldn't find a stool at district commons so i decided to give this place a shot. Aside from the awkward entrance ( personally i'd rather see the entrance unchanged because it won't attract tons of people and turn it into a loud and unfriendly bistro), it was an amazing find! A bar with good $4 HH wine, you can have a conversation without shouting and the bar was manned by the most amazing bartender who gives you space while being attentive.

Last minute I had to search the DC restaurant scene to find a place that could accommodate 6 people on a Saturday night . Circle Bistro was able to and they offer free valet parking! Awesome! However I wish I could say more about the food and service. The restaurant is centrally located next to Foggy Bottom and is small romantic and quaint. The server took awhile to get to us and when he did we discovered all the menus we had been given were not up to date and some of the items we wanted were listed in the menu but they had run out. That's a huge pet peeve of mine. Don't advertise something

I had a great dinner here 2 years ago. Tonight it was so bad. Extremely rude bar staff. Sliders were dried out and bun burned. Likely sitting around a while but still took too long after ordering.

If you want cheap happy hour, awful food and bad service. This is your best choice.

Terrible! My entire family was disappointed with our meal.
I ordered the club sandwich and a mixed green salad. The sandwich was too big and poorly assembled to eat. It fell apart in my hands and left me holding a chunk of turkey and tomato. The accompanying french fries were soggy. My salad was wilted and overdressed.
My parents and siblings also ordered burgers and steak, none of which were cooked to order. Their salads and fries were also in a poor state.
The best part of my meal was the small glass of orange juice I ordered.
This meal was far too overpriced for quality and very poorly done

What an undiscovered gem! I'd been eying this place for years and finally stopped by for dinner yesterday with some friends. I should have come years ago. We sat outside and the atmosphere and weather was perfect. There was an entertaining British waitress that added to our fun. We had mussels (incredibly big and fresh), salmon rillette, burger, pork chop, salmon cake, ahi tuna. Everybody loved their dishes. Plus they had a nice Primitivo blend.

They have a pre-theatre prix fixe which I hope to try out sometime. Since we ate outside that was considered "bar area" and we

Severely lacking - We stayed at the hotel and stopped in here for lunch. A colleague and I both ordered the open-faced wagyu steak sandwich. It was very bland and unappetizing, and I could not bring myself to finish it. We had breakfast there the next morning and the experience was just as bad.

Service was slow and poor both occasions. For example, at breakfast I asked for a spoon and the server never brought me one, so after waiting for about five minutes, I just grabbed one from another table. The previous day another diner in our group ordered french fries with their burger and was brought

Near my office so we stopped in for dinner. Coffee shop ambience, Empty in a Friday night. Never a good sign.

Seated us in the back room for some unknown reason even though the main dining room was empty except for a screaming baby.

Service was ok but the pleasant waiter seemed to have his mind on other things - asked us three times within a minute if we wanted wine. Weird.

Anyway we ordered the pre-theatre menu. It was ok. But the screaming baby was annoying. Then the waiter seats a large boisterous party with an even louder screaming baby one table away in the empty back room with us -

I was here for the New Years Eve dinner. The menu was a special for the NYE, so I can't comment on the regular food menu. The ingredient was fresh and the food was well prepared, but there was no wow factor to write about. I would recommend this establishment if you are looking for a quiet and private dinner for yourself. On another note, I remember there wasn't too many customers, which can be a positive thing (if you want more space and privacy), or negative thing (because it can be so quiet).

My wife and I wandered into the restaurant around 4PM on a Saturday afternoon.
We hadn't had lunch and we were hoping to have a bit to eat before we went to a 6PM show at the Kennedy Center.
The chef was at the front desk having a conversation with one of the servers as we walked in.
The restaurant staff had just finished up resetting the restaurant from lunch and was not yet serving dinner, but they both graciously agreed to open the kitchen for just the two of us and were willing to adapt for my wife's gluten intolerance to boot!
When the food arrived it was perfect!

Finally made it back to Circle Bistro after enjoying my first visit over a year ago. As usual I sat at the bar - there was another woman dining alone (who was a regular), and a very friend woman bartender who was quite down to earth. I had a hard time deciding on dinner, and decided to give the burger a try. WOW. I'm glad I did. It was a nice size (not too big) and served on a fresh brioche bun. It was brilliant. One of the best burgers I have ever had in my life. No joke. The price was nice, too.

I also had two glasses of a sauv blanc that weren't bad and was entertained by good bar

What's a gal to do with idle time on her hand? Grab a drink somewhere, of course! As the presidential motorcade whizzed by (quitting time for Mr. President) I ducked into Circle Bistro not knowing what to expect.

The bar is swanky. I know that word gets thrown around a lot, but that is the best way to describe it. I didn't notice a bar food menu, but I did get myself a signature cocktail, the Cherry Blossom. It was just what this gal needed. Made with vanilla vodka, rum and pomegranate juice, it was a sweet way to start my Happy Hour night out. Best part... it was
