    First time and celebrated an anniversary. The food was amazing. There was nothing we didn’t enjoy. Drinks were also very good. Service was partially good. There were a few long delays in visits to our table. As we were celebrating an occasion, we put it in our Reservation. As a result, they surprised us by bringing out an “extra” dessert - with a message written on the plate. We were thankful, but then later shocked to see it on our bill when we didn’t expect or ask for the item. We didn’t raise it as an issue but be aware. Also we had hoped to visit Roja after our meal, but it was standing room only. So another tip for awareness - set a reservation for it too. Overall a wonderful experience. Just a few lessons learned.

    This was the first year ever that I have dined out on Christmas Eve so I was extremely nervous about the level of food and service on the holiday. I’m so happy that my nerves were wrong. The food and the service were outstanding and on the same level as a normal RPM experience. We walked in and it was so busy but the hostesses were so calm and very warm, friendly and welcoming. The service all around was so attentive. My parents were raving at the level of service on such a busy evening . Thank you for such a wonderful holiday dinner and experience.

    This was a special occasion dinner Christmas eve date night. The service was great and the time at the restaurant very relaxing. I really appreciate the ability to be able to have a conversation so many restaurant inDC are so noisy even sitting next to each other it's hard to talk. Our waiter Franklin was very personable friendly and knowledgeable.

    Will was a fantastic waiter. He was so helpful with our daughter’s food allergies by checking with the chef regarding ingredients. All 6 of us enjoyed our food and the specialty drinks were yummy. Clyde’s was the perfect choice for our Christmas Eve dinner.

    Wonderful service and food. Really love the ambiance and the quality. Only down side was the 5% charge added to the bill, notated as NOT a tip but a service charge due to increasing cost to run the business. As a business owner myself I would not charge a fee rather if you need more money just charge more for your items. We tip 20% minimum everywhere we go but to be charged an extra 5% on top of the bill seems strange. Some people will just leave when they see that. I guess I appreciate the honesty however considering the menus are printed daily at this restaurant they could just raise the prices and then no one would be aware or need to know about the extra "we're hurting and business is tough" charge. Again - I own businesses. I understand. It's been rough the past two years.
