Took my wife a vegan here last month for her birthday and we both had an incredible time. As a non-vegan, I thought the meals and experience were great. We enjoyed all the dishes on the prix fixe menu along with some tasty mocktails. The staff is what really made this place spectacular—so polite and friendly. Will definitely be back next year for birthday celebrations!
My brother took me out to dinner to celebrate my 29th birthday and we had the best meal ever! I asked in advance for a fully raw 6-course experience and my bother did the vegan 6-course, so we had fun sharing bites. We each got a drink and they were wonderful. We started with the caviar plate which is SO worth it and an experience that you’ll never forget. Each small plate of the meal was absolutely delicious and prepared with such exquisite creativity. We enjoyed every bite. The dishes are so beautiful that it feels like you are eating edible art. We had a blast chatting to the passionate waitstaff such as Ben throughout the meal and hearing some of the stories behind the beautiful paintings from Elizabeth herself. My brother and I agreed that this was one of the best meals of our lives. Without a shadow of a doubt, we will be back time and time again to try the different seasonal menus. The biggest thank you to Elizabeth, the fantastic Chef Francisco Hernandez and the wonderful team. Every single person made us feel so special and cared for.
Wow wow wow! This is the best Organic Raw Vegan 6 course dinner you’ll ever have. I am so unbelievably impressed. My fiancé and I had the best date night ever. We can’t wait for the next season to experience what Chef has in store. He’s a creative genius.
Easily one of - if not the best - meals of my life, in any city, anywhere! So incredibly delicious from start to finish. Wonderful ambiance, attentive and knowledgeable wait staff - everything you could want for in a meal. Drinks were delicious, too. Whether vegan or not, this place is absolutely worth your time. Can’t wait to return and try the new seasonal menu next time.
I almost have no words! We just came back after dining at this wonderful establishment to celebrate my husband's 40th birthday. From the moment we walked in, the staff knew it was him and congratulated him promptly incredible!. The rest of the night went as smoothly. The food is unbelievable, vegan or not, it's an experience worthy of trying from an art perspective alone! We are vegan so it was double amazing. Flavors, presentation, service - all were outstanding! We even were lucky to meet THE Elizabeth : From charming hostess, to our wonderful waitress, to incredible bartender, great manager and Elizabeth herself - everyone was lovely and provided a phenomenal experience topped by a bday candle and a personal card. We will definitely be back!
This was our first time having a fancy 5 course meal like this and it was incredible. The menu is seasonal was just creative and delicious. Everything we had was unique and full of flavor. Each course was explained by our wonderful server with not only what it was but how it was prepared and where the food came from. The restaurant was beautiful and quaint and all the staff was phenomenal. We were visiting DC for our honeymoon and they brought out a candle in celebration. It was very pricey for us but well worth the price for the entire experience.
Impeccable service, thoughtful and delicious food! My dinner mates consisted of two vegans, one plant based, and myself an omnivore. The plating was beautiful with layers of flavor with each successful course. Ideal for a nice date night. Our favorite thing was the kale chips!!! They look pretty plain but oohwee lol. The owner took pity on us and brought us seconds after watching us pick at the crumbs in the first bowl. Will definitely be back!
Have to say this hidden Gem in the wonderful city of DC was worth the experience! From the entryway to the ambiance upstairs in their dining space. All the waiters and waitresses were incredible, from start to finish and compliments to the chef for amazing fine dining tasting options. If you are to ever find yourself in downtown DC stop here and experience the vegan “CAVIAR”!! Yes I said it “VEGAN CAVIAR”, for a first time experience in having this delicacy I was blown away. The entire food menu from the appetizer to the main course to the dessert was incredibly sensational along with a spectacular display of each one. Can’t forget the bartender who made the most amazing Mezcal Old Fashioned using the vida organic mezcal tequila. The Smokey earth tones from the mezcal and finished with the right bitters and simple syrup, lastly with the solid rock cube in a wide mouth rocks glass thank you!!!!! To all the staff thank you for the experience as we had an amazing time and great birthday celebration in your establishment and will look forward to another dinner the next time we are in DC.
5 Stars is not enough for Elizabeth's Gone Raw. A true dining experience with raw foods. My family and I have been going here for years and each time we are amazed of the quality, taste and experience that we get. Our relatives in Germany fly here just to visit Elizabeth's and have the food. The Chef is totally amazing with his creations and presentations. I have never had shrimp that was made from other ingredients that tasted like shrimp, has the consistency of shrimp and flavor of shrimp but was not shrimp. I am from the east coast and raised on fish and shrimp and this was excellent. Well worth the trip and cost. If you are looking for a unique dining experience that is top notch you must go to Elizabeth's and try it out. Tell her Jack sent you.
My new favorite restaurant!!! Even better than Dirt Candy in NYC. The staff were amazing too. Me and my hubs can't wait for our next visit.
