Let me start by saying they add 3% to the check, not for the use of a credit card, but to cover costs. That would have been enough for me not to go to L'avant Garde, and I knew it beforehand from reading the menu, but it was the birthday of one
We came back! This time we were here to celebrate, just us.
Great ambiance as always. They change the huge statement piece (flowers) by the entrance; probably seasonal. We were greeted nicely and brought to a quiet corner. We went for their prix-fix dinners: one set is fig themed, the other set is lobster the
We got there early for our reservation so went to the bar.
I ordered a Bombay Sapphire gin and tonic, which they didn't have so I asked for Tanqueray which they also didn't have. The bartender suggested Monkey 47 gin and I said sure. Here's where we should have stopped. There were 4 of us for
We went to L'avant Garde for my husband's birthday.
The restaurant is both beautiful and elegant. The service was flawless. The cuisine was excellent. I had the menu with multiple courses containing lobster & was excited to try them all. The lobster bouillabaisse was the best I've ever had.
Excellent service.
Excellent food The burrata salad was great the beef tartar as well the scallops , the branzino was delicious with thewhite sparragus Will definetely be back!!

Sometimes one visits a restaurant a couple of times and has a fantastic meal, then tries it a third time, and it fails spectacularly, and thinks, "A McDonald's would be a better use of this space." Well, that's exactly my experie

It was fine if French food is your thing but I could not enjoy the experience with all the protesters outside
L'Avant-Garde made my birthday dinner memorable.
From the seamless phone call to setup the reservations and menu personalization, to the day of adjustments to the timeline, the staff was very accommodating. Upon arrival, the dark exterior facade presented a sexy interior. Unfortunately, there is
I had a great dinner here.
I liked my old fashioned cocktail. The amuse bouche was savory and creamy. The Branzino was delicious and so was the duck foie gras that came with it. I had the caramel soufflé with caramel ice cream for dessert. I liked the design on the souffle bu
We were super excited to go back.
..,simply put, very disappointed. Service was not good at all. i can't even explain how our $175 ribeye for two was served...it was horrible. The awesome female sommelier is no longer there, instead we had a manager who clearly knew nothing ab
Great bar and deserts
After dinner at the Barmini, we moved next door to Minibar for dessert and tea. Each offering was as unique and delicious as the rest of the evening. Highly recommended for a memorable and extraordinary dining experience!
Culinary Perfection!
The minibar experience begins weeks before you step inside, when you manage to secure a coveted spot at one of the two nightly seatings. Each passing day builds anticipation, knowing you’re about to embark on something truly special and unique. On
Feast for the senses
The flavors and service are choreographed to create a multi sensory experience. Everything is timed and presented together as a fun surprise to all, but then you take a bite and each is an added adventure in flavor. Wine pairings were amazing too.

Went into this meal very excited due to the Washingtonian ranking and menu but my friends and I left disappointed. The common theme for what we ordered was lack of flavor. I had foie gras to start and while the presentation was great, it really didn

Chef Sebastian's grandmother's recipe soup was delicious.
Eggplant salad, drinks and desserts all great. However we were disappointed with lobster fettuccine dish. It was very average. Service is attentive. I would return to this restaurant to try other dishes.
Loved the ambiance.
Very interesting decor. Wish I had sat near the fireplace. Service was awesome and attentive Food made us all happy but you have to get the bouillabaisse and the duck fat old fashioned were my favorites. Great presentation

We visited L'Avant Garde to celebrate our anniversary.
It's in a nice location. The service was great, greeted by several staff upon walking in and our server Eric took good care of us. We enjoyed all of our food and drinks. I really liked the sauces that came with the steak and also my first drink, Visi
This used to be undisputedly my FAVORITE French restaurant
This used to be undisputedly my FAVORITE French restaurant in the DMV area. I was happy when they temporarily closed down to do a renovation (back room would be freezing cold and could use a remodel). I went back as soon as they reopened to find out
Very excellent.
Polished, friendly and professional service. Great food. The chicken entree particularly noteworthy. Looking forward to returning.

This place by no means is bad, I do not think anything on their menu could be classified as bad, well, maybe their foie gras over celery, but the dishes are good, but for the hype and the prices they are extremely underwhelming. People who say they h

Arguably one of the best meals of my life! Food and service were extraordinary! We had a party of 8 and were seated in the semi-private room. All of this added to a spectacular night!

An Experience Not To Be Missed
The overall experience was fantastic. It was dinner and a show. The courses were not just feasts for the stomach but for the eyes. The amount of mise en place that occurred earlier in the day must have been enormous—the mushroom leaf on the monk
A bit disappointing after a phenomenal first visit.
Food was wonderful but overall experience was so-so. We went in August 2019 and the entire experience from start to finish was spectacular. They’ve changed a few things over the years that were a little disappointing. *No longer do you have your
Biggest Disappointment
The biggest waste of $1000 in my 50+ years. Minibar was the worst dining experience I have ever had. We were seated at a what looked like a circa 70s Formica wood counter top. All of the food served was clearly prepared ahead of time and was just pl
I had a great meal at L' Avant Garde.
I ordered their roasted chicken, it was super juicy and delicious.
Confused about the positive reviews - the food was
Confused about the positive reviews - the food was extremely underwhelming and overpriced. The service was bad and the staff looked miserable. Bread and plain cold butter to start, just gets worse from there. Save your money and go elsewhere.
L'avant garde was very good.
Overall, I'd rate it 5/5; my husband thought it was 4/5. The prices are kind of high, but I was actually pleasantly surprised that our bill wasn't higher by the end. I think the price is work it because the food is very unique. If you want traditiona
Worth the price
We all know that this experience does not come cheap, but I promise you that if it can fit into your budget, this lives up to the price. We loved the culinary experience, sitting in the kitchen with about 8 chefs and support along with the other main

After lots of buzz, I thought this would be the perfect restaurant to celebrate an anniversary. We wine and dine a lot and had moderate expectations prior to sitting down for dinner. We were running 5 min late for our 5:15p reservation and called the

L'Avant Garde is a French style restaurant, but perhaps tries too hard, and does not have a menu that really reflects real French cuisine. The menu is in both French and English, but that's where the authenticity tapers off. The food here is actually
The service here is great.
The food just okay. I was disappointed with my meal and thought they should have put a bit more effort into making the meal memorable. The ambience is wonderful. The sommelier awesome. Now they just need to get the food right.
First time, last time for me.
Bread was ok, ask for more butter was charge 5 bucks. Foie gras beignet had a small amount of duck and dough was not sweet. Sweetbreads had an Oder that they were not soak enough to get the smell out. Chateaubrien was good and correctly cooked. Fri

Have visited twice and have always been welcomed with warm service. The dishes are fantastic and the cocktails are made well. The duck foie gras beignet and risotto are favorites. Dessert wise it's hard to go wrong with a baba au rhum! Highly recomme
Astonishing dining experience
I booked two seats at Minibar for an anniversary/birthday and could not be happier. My partner, the foodie, says it was his top meal of his life. Each portion of the meal was well thought out, innovative, and incredibly delicious. Flavors carefully a
Absolutely superb dining experience.
It's very rare to hit all the boxes - food, service, drinks, mood were all outstanding. Georgetown has needed a place like this for a long time, we will be running back for more! Drinks to start: Duck Fat Old Fashioned w/ Smoke, 5/5. Wine: Domaine d

Very excited to see this charming new addition in Georgetown. M Street is a perfect home for this "little corner of Paris"! They did a great job renovating and styling. Dark-Modern-Romantic. Luxe velvet drapes, grand pampas grass arrangemen
High quality food, high prices.
I started with the bouillabaisse with macaroni and rouille - the broth was like a rich lobster bisque under a pillowy thin pastry crust. For my main I had the Atlantic Cod with potato, leek and black truffle. The Cod was excellently cooked - and the
So anticipated and just did not deliver......
Have always heard about the minibar test kitchen and the innovativeness of the experience....Alinea was our favorite dinner of all time and we really wanted this to be close but it just wasn't. It was fun and it was good, but it was far too much cavi

Disons que Peter passe une excellente matinée et décide d’emmener ses trois amis à L'Avant-Garde Washington à 18h le même jour.
Il consulte le site du restaurant et constate qu’aucune réservation n’est disponible. Il regarde alors la page L'Avant-Garde Washington sur AppointmentTrader, mais ne trouve aucune annonce d’utilisateur non plus.
C’est là que le système d’enchères communautaire entre en jeu.
Peter peut placer une enchère sur AppointmentTrader, qui servira de récompense à tout membre de la communauté choisissant d’aider à trouver une réservation. AT avertit alors les utilisateurs expérimentés qui pourraient être en mesure d’aider.
Processus étapes par étapes
1.) Définir une récompense (enchère)
* AppointmentTrader utilise des données historiques pour recommander un montant de récompense raisonnable pour obtenir une réservation – disons 100 $.
* Peter souhaite vraiment y aller, alors il augmente l’enchère (ou récompense) à 200 $.
* À ce stade, la réservation n’existe pas encore.
2.) Un membre de la communauté prend l’enchère
* DistinguishedTree58, un utilisateur expérimenté d’AT, a un historique solide de réservations réussies et peu de demandes de remboursement, il reçoit une notification concernant l’enchère de 200 $ de Peter.
* DistinguishedTree58 accepte l’enchère, ce qui signifie qu’il va maintenant tenter d’obtenir la réservation.
* Peter peut désormais poser toutes ses questions à DistinguishedTree58 pendant que ce dernier travaille sur sa demande.
3.) Trouver la réservation
* DistinguishedTree58 utilise maintenant ses relations chez L'Avant-Garde Washington pour obtenir la table.
* S’il parvient à avoir la table de 18h pour quatre personnes, Peter reçoit une confirmation lui indiquant que la réservation est sécurisée.
* Si DistinguishedTree58 n’arrive pas à obtenir la réservation, l’enchère est remise en jeu pour qu’un autre utilisateur puisse tenter sa chance.
4.) Paiement & Protection
* Une fois la réservation sécurisée, DistinguishedTree58 reçoit la récompense de 200 $ qui est créditée sur le solde AT de DistinguishedTree58, où les utilisateurs gèrent leurs fonds et peuvent retirer leur argent via les options disponibles comme virement bancaire, PayPal ou Zelle.
* Peter peut alors profiter du dîner avec ses amis à L'Avant-Garde Washington !
* Comme pour toutes les transactions sur AT, les litiges et les frais d’absence sont gérés via le système communautaire de résolution de la plateforme. Les utilisateurs ayant un bon historique sont incités à honorer les enchères, et les membres de la communauté peuvent signaler les problèmes pour maintenir la confiance sur la marketplace.
