🇺🇸 1789 Restaurant 🍷 Time Travel to 18th-Century Paris in DC!

Celebrating my birthday at 1789 Restaurant felt like being whisked away to a romantic, candlelit Parisian evening in the 1700s! 🥀🕯️ Making a birthday reservation comes with a complimentary dessert and a candle—total vibe booster! 🎂✨ Appetizers & Bread 🥖 🥖 The bread was decent, but the butter was incredibly smooth! 🪿 Foie Gras – Served with traditional fig jam. If you love seared foie gras with something sweet, you’ll adore this. 🐚 New Bedford Scallops – Tender and delicate. Cooking scallops this perfectly is true skill! 👨🍳 Main Courses 🥩 🦆 Pekin Duck Breast – The star of the night! Despite the name, it’s not like Peking duck, but the skin is incredibly crispy and fragrant. Every bite was heavenly—a must-order for duck lovers! 🐟 Scottish Ocean Trout – Compared to the duck, this was less impressive. Light and refreshing, good for seafood fans. Served with carrots—a low-calorie option. Dessert 🍧 The birthday reservation includes a free mini dessert with a candle! A sweet gesture for a special day. 💖 Tips 📌 • A credit card is required for reservation; no-shows are charged $20. • Mention it’s a birthday celebration when seated to receive the dessert. • Restaurant Week includes most à la carte dishes, but regular portions are larger. • Price per person: $100+ Location 🥂 Georgetown, DC #FrenchCuisine #RomanticDining #AtmosphereGoals #DateNightRestaurant #DCFrenchFood #WashingtonDCEats #GeorgetownEats #GeorgetownFoodScene #DMVDining #DCFoodie #FineDining #BirthdayDinner #CandlelitDinner #HistoricVibes
