Long standing Georgetown DC restaurant. Prix fixe 3 course menu so evaluation of food a bit limited. What I and my dining companion had for Thanksgiving was good, choices quite limited on a special menu. While waiting for our reservation and with the restaurant and bar being over crowded, we were shown to a comfortable open space and our pre-dinner drinks were brought to us. All in all a very pleasant experience throughout our evening there. Restrooms are down a narrow hallway and are quite small.
MY FIRST EXPERIENCE WITH THE 1789, WAS IN 1963 OR 1964. I HAVE BEEN BACK MANY TIMES OVER THE YEARS. IT IS ALWAYS OUTSTANDING.
