    Green Pig Bistro is a great place to go for brunch. The food is great at a reasonable price point and the service was impeccable. Their new location is awesome being more centralized in Clarendon which will help bring in more customers. Highly recommend this spot to anyone in the DMV area looking for good brunch places.

    First time. Was a little concerned after reading other reviews and map didn’t get us to the front of the restaurant. But from there, all was stellar. Service, ambiance, food were over the top skilled, delightful and delicious. We canceled our reservation for my husband’s birthday so we could come here instead. We’re fussy, so this is a huge tribute.

    We were celebrating a birthday and this restaurant was just perfect. The ambiance was inviting and the staff were top notch. Professional yet unobtrusive. Michael was our server and he was great. Knowledgable and friendly. We will definitely be back for another dining experience. PS: the complementary birthday dessert was very tasty!

    It’s a concise menu, but it is always phenomenal! My wife and I have been visiting Härth for more than eight years, and we never had any issue with food or service. It is one of the finest places around.
