   Exceptional dining experience — a true gem The Pembroke is an outstanding restaurant that delivers a top-tier experience on every level. From the moment we walked in, everything — from the atmosphere to the service — felt refined and thoughtful. The dishes served here could easily compete with Michelin-starred restaurants. Each plate is presented like a piece of art — compliments to the chef for such creativity and execution. What truly elevates this place is the team. Every staff member works in perfect sync, showing a level of training and coordination that’s rare to see. A special thank you to our server, Arty, who made the experience even more memorable with his professionalism and warm attitude. Highly recommend for anyone seeking a fine dining experience that goes beyond just good food.

   Our server was not very attentive. Asked for ketchup and few other things. All he did was bring the food and grab a check. There was no interaction in between. Still gave him 30% tip but should have gotten 5%.

While we're glad you enjoyed your meal enough to leave a generous tip, we completely understand your frustration and agree that great service should never be an afterthought.

   During my stay at the Dupont Circle, Hotel I dined breakfast and lunch with family and friends and a business meeting. I got to meet pretty much everybody who works at the Pembroke! It was really delicious and thank you for your excellent service.
