Went for Christmas dinner. Foggy Bottom was one of the two locations that had the a’ la carte menu which was why I picked the location. It was a little crowded waiting for our reservation time and they were behind but we expected that and didn’t mind. There were three of us and we all were happy with our meals. We had wings and the corn bread skillet for appetizers. The wings were really good. I’m not a fan of corn in my cornbread but it still tasted good. I had fried shrimp with fries, coleslaw and corn bread. The shrimp and fries were really good. The coleslaw was a little blah. Our other two diners had a platter with ribs, cheeseburger sliders and fried chicken and coleslaw. They both loved theirs but also were not fans of the coleslaw. The staff was friendly and professional and fast. We enjoyed talking to them and the two different sets of patrons sitting beside us. We had a great Christmas dinner despite it not being an “traditional” Christmas dinner and would come back again.

This is our 2nd year trying the Christmas Buffet..all I can say is "we are another a happy couple (my husband and me). " Founding Farmers did not disappoint. The food is outstanding!!! Over 50 options to choose from. My one suggestions is make available "well done" red meat options. Everyone does not like to see blood draining from their food.

Came here for Christmas Day buffet and all of the staff were in great moods and very helpful… despite working the holiday. We really appreciated having this option so that we didn’t have to think about cooking dinner and could just spend time together as a family. Thank you so much for a great meal!
