The Georgetown building that houses 1789 Restaurant, The Tombs and F.Scott’s closed on June 11th, 2016 for necessary roof repairs. While closed, Clyde’s Restaurant Group invested in a new French top range for 1789 Restaurant. “We’re excited about the new flat top stove,” says Chef Samuel Kim “it opens up technical and creative opportunities for the kitchen and a perfect time for us to offer a prix fixe menu. The tasting menus will allow our guests to experience more dishes at a great value.”

Located at 1226 36th Street NW, 1789 Restaurant is Georgetown’s premier food and wine experience with a wine cellar storing almost 200 different wines. Corkage fees are waived on Tuesdays for oenophiles with their own collection.

Complimentary valet parking is provided. Reservations can be made online or by calling 202.965.1789.
