Charlie Palmer Steak Washington, DC, located in the United Brotherhood of Carpenters building, is dedicated to another fine master craft: bold American food. Under the direction of Executive Chef Zach Long, the menu not only stars the best American artisan beef cuts like an aged Angus Rib-eye "Cowboy" Steak but updated locally sourced seafood dishes, like Chesapeake Bay Oysters and Soft Shell Crab Fritto Misto.

Much more than a steakhouse, the timelessly stylish restaurant moves the political power meetings out of the back room and into private dining spaces, sleek enclaves of dark wood. Located off the wide, open expanse of the National Mall, Charlie Palmer’s Steak’s rooftop terrace can accommodate 400 guests for private events, offering the city’s most impressive view of the Capitol.

    We had to go looking for a hostess. Eventually she came. Then she made us wait to get seated. The restaurant was almost empty. Once seated it took 15 minutes for someone to take our drink order. Our food was bland was at best mediocre which I get for a prix fixe but everything was cold. Like it had been sitting out all day. It was an expensive meal and throughly disappointing. You should be embarrassed,

    We will miss this place and the staff. A travesty that they are closing down.

    What had once been a great DC restaurant has become mediocre and I understand why they are permanently closing. Have been to their new location in NYC at the Knickerbocker Hotel and it is a sorry excuse to its former location across the street on 42nd. Charlie Palmer is now serving poor hotel quality food versus his former gourmet standard.

    Incredible delicious lunch, wish I could come back for dinner. The downside was they took a very long time to get our food out. Overall, not bad at all if you are not in a time crunch. By far the best dirty martini I’ve had on the East Coast.
