    Great to be back at LCF! As we entered the parking lot, we were greeted by fun, colorful holiday lights. The staff were friendly and always willing to help. Our server Freddie was excellent - knowledgable, attentive and really funny! Food was consistently very good among our four diners. Highlights: mushroom crepe (recommended by Freddie) and veal entree. Only issues: Beef Wellington was a little underseasoned and rack of lamb needed more sauce on the side. But that's quibbling! LCF remains the same: friendly, comfortable, and unpretentious - we look forward to returning very soon!

    We had Christmas dinner at Clyde's, everything was delicious. We had a pork chop, seared yellowtail tuna steak, and shrimp Diablo. The person that had the shrimp did say that their shrimp was almost too spicy, so you may want to consider that when ordering this dish. Service was very good, attentive, we got our food in good time, considering how busy the restaurant was.

    My husband and I decided to grab an early lunch while we were picking up a Christmas dinner order in the area. I had no idea that there was a sister restaurant to Clyde’s. I have been to the location in DC, and I really enjoyed it there. So, I figured I would have the same experience, and I was right. The food is delicious, it was beautifully decorated for Christmas, and our server was knowledgeable and friendly. We didn’t even need to ask for refills; a replacement drink was on the table before we could even think to ask. Now, that is some stellar service! We will return with friends, and I have already recommended to a friend who is also a fan of Clydes in DC. Happy holidays!
