My wife and I celebrated her birthday there, it was phenomenal. It began with our waitress Bolade who wad magnificent and extended to everyone we met. It extended all the way up to the general manager Kerry Macphail, who came out to personally greet and acknowledge us on this momentous occasion. The ambiance and food quality are exceptional and add to the refinement and elegance of the entire experience. For a great meal, wonderful company and a truly memorable experience (aside from being the lucky husband), you must check out La Grande Boucherie, it is unforgettable.

We enjoyed it so much!! I had the scallops - they were world class. Absolutely perfect. There were three good sized sea scallops and a delicious raita like sauce. I also had the rice and lentil pilaf. It was soul-warming comfort food. We shared the hummus - I was concerned the chili oil would make it too spicy, but it was flavorful, not spicy. Other items included a halloumi flatbread, bone marrow fritter (I don’t remember the actual name), and a stewed eggplant and tomato dish. The meal was started with wonderful fresh bread and an olive oil/balsamic dip. We shared the chocolate Turkish coffee cake for dessert. Do not leave without this cake!! We also had Turkish coffee. The food and the service was all flawless. We had more than we could eat - and the total was $100. Great value for a world class dining experience. We can’t wait to come back next time we are in DC.

Exceptional dining experience and first class service. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. I must say the bread was some of the best ever. My family raved about the pistachio bread a must eat. Our server was a gracious host and made the experience even better. Beautiful ambience and a must visit.

I was very grateful the hostess was able to accommodate my request for a table by the window as this is a very lively and energetic place on a Saturday evening. More so with all the happenings in DC to include a hockey game. It is undoubtedly a challenge to orchestrate timing of reservations, seating, and staffing to ensure good service (for those wondering why there are open tables). Our server was a very pleasant and efficient young man, the other staff who delivered food and removed plates were likewise pleasant, and the food was delicious. It is a lively venue - especially once all the tables fill up and they did within a short time of us sitting down shortly after 430 pm!

This was our 2nd time eating at Succotash. Just as good as the first time. We ordered the Taste of the South. The food was excellent and we got to sample a variety of food from the menu. Fried green tomato salad, deviled eggs, chicken wings, shrimp and grits, ribeye steak, chicken and waffles, cornbread, collard greens and garlic smashed potatoes for the two side. OMG so good. We took our dessert to go we were so full. Highly recommend Succotash.
