The Visiteur - Washington DC

Only open from 5pm-10pm during Covid times. Nice big screen TV, strong drinks and good food. Good atmosphere and good service!

My husband and I had a late dinner at The Visiteur and very much enjoyed our meals. My husband had Steak Frites--his steak was very tender and the chimichurri sauce was perfect. I had the Baby Candied Striped Beet Salad--the presentation was lovely, especially the visual contrast between the locally sourced goat cheese medallions and the different types of beets. I also had the sweet potato jalapeño bites. The sprinkling of salt and salty bacon, mixed with the sweet of the potatoes and the speck of jalapeño hit all the best flavors. There was a lot of food. Neither of us were able to finish our meals. Our server was very attentive, but not overly so. He kept an eye on us and stayed out of the way, but was there when we needed him. Our check out was quick and painless. I found the prices to be very reasonable, especially for the obvious quality of the food. I guess the weirdest thing about this restaurant is that it cannot seem to decide if it's a big loud crazy bar or a nice, sit down, have-a-quiet-date place. There's a loud, huge screen TV right in the middle of things--Loud Bar: +1 There is also nice out-of-the-way seating--Quiet Date: +1. The strangest part about the restaurant is that it's in a big, open area, so if your buddy is checking into the hotel across the big room, you can look over and ask him to join you. The food is great, the service is great, and the restaurant meets socializing needs, regardless of what they might be. I'd definitely go back.

Come here and get Sam to make you his old fashioned, one of the best ones I have had in the city. They also have fantastic food. It is a pleasant surprise to end up at a hotel with good food and drinks.

Had the best service I have had in years. very respectable server Named Alex Bright light of the place.

Overpriced Food!We came to this restaurant for dinner during our Washington DC Trip. It is located in the lobby of the Marriott Hotel. We were sat promptly our server was really nice and attentive. The atmosphere was nice too. The food I ordered was awful I could not finish it. All our food were overpriced and wasn’t tasty. If I ever return to this place, it would probably be for drinks . Definitely not food.
