   Our first time at Cynthia's and we thought it was great. We had wild rice risotto, pesto fettucccine, and a Cynthia burger and ended with creme brulee for dessert. All were well seasoned and the portions were just right. There is something for everyone on the menu. We left looking forward to trying some of the other options.

   The atmosphere was warm and cozy and a great place to catch up with a friend. The service was attentive but not overly attentive to interrupt our conversation a lot. The lemon oil cake was phenomenal. I’ll be coming back!

   Adorable place! Friendly and accommodating staff. Good drinks and wonderful food. Recommend the croquettes and brussel sprouts - large portions, great for sharing and delicious. Cynthia burger was outstanding. Mushroom risotto also excellent. Will definitely return.

   Phil has a way of making you feel like the only people in the whole restaurant—even when it’s busy. Love this place.

   First time there and will be back again. Brussels sprouts and Cynthia burgers were delicious. Great wait staff. Owner was very engaging. Noise level was just right!

   They were short staffed but the waiter busted his butt to do a good job while splitting time greeting people as the host.

    We are so excited to have visited Cynthia (after pledging to never cross the threshold while it was the cheeky play on poor grammar before!). Tasty food, delightful drinks, wonderful service all wrapped in a lovely setting. We definitely recommend and will be back! Thanks to the staff for a great experience in the H St. area!
