Mask Usage
We know it is no fun to wear a mask while enjoying a night out, but our staff's safety is no laughing matter.
We require all guests to wear a mask while moving about the restaurant, and when speaking to Clyde's employees.
Masks have been a hot topic, with passionate views on all sides. With our team and their families' health at stake, we must err on the side of caution. We hope you will understand and look forward to the day, hopefully soon, when we can all throw our masks in the trash.

Great food and friendly staff!
Fabulous experience, food, ambiance all with safety in mind!
Lovely dinner on the patio; Cindy, our server took good care of us and our food was terrific. That market salad is to die for.
Delicious and safe!
Top 3 best meatloaf I ever had! Good Motown music - your not forced to listen to filthy rap and hip hop
Very nice. Clyde's never disappoints. Thank you!!!
The spacing between tables was ample and the noise level was low - very good for conversation. The service was a little slow, but the food was pretty good, though the roasted chicken was a little dry yet very flavorful. Nice variety of choices on the menu and good value all around. The front desk team did forget to check us in for our Open Table reservation, so when I got the email that we had missed our reservation (while we were eating), I went back to the front desk, and they got us checked in.
Awesome service and food was delicious
Service was excellent. I ordered an egg white omelet which was good but it contained garlic which might be helpful to describe in the menu. I am not a garlic lover.
Awesome food and atmosphere
Outdoor dining in early evening. Heaters were a little problematic but worked properly eventually. Food and service excellent under pandemic conditions. Great to be back after a year’s absence!!
I was very hesitant to write this review, I have been a frequent patron of all the Clyde's for Years, Since 1993, The Founder Stuart Davidson was a customer of mine at Jerry's Ford & would buy his Trucks from me. He gave me a business card the 2nd vehicle & Wrote , Please give the bearer of this card all courtesies & his meals are on the house.
I was always so impressed by that & would go up on Fridays & have lunch. Later started bring mom & dad & my Girlfriend Diane, became friends with Tim, the manager. Always could count on a Great Meal, A great drink & a fair value. Clydes has always been known for a Great burger, many years later, I learned Wow.. Best Ruben in town as well. During the start of the pandemic, I would still come for carry out for mom , dad & myself . Since then, The Quality of the food in my opinion has slipped to sub par . Very disappointed in the shrimp which were always crisp & fresh, now chewy & tasted old. What really angered me was the complete lack of value on the Oysters Rockefeller . 4, for that much money? After a lifetime coming , spending money & enjoying all the Clyde's I am going with the 3 strike rule. For 187.00, I will be spending my money with Great American , Ruth Chris Or even Morton's... You need to figure out what changed in the kitchen in order to get back on track. Look back 1.5 years, See who was ordering food, Who was preparing ... I own 3 companies myself, & I saw the change When Covid started.... Clyde's is too important to DC to go away, Please fix this ... Thank you, Parris 703 203 9497
We always enjoy coming as the service and food are excellent !
Thank you wonderful staff !
Our drinks arrived at the same time as our food. And the food was not quick by any means.
The menu was sad and the food even sadder. Had a turkey sandwich which was dry. Friend had a Benedict which was 2 inches of dry bread.
Cost of beverages were outrageous.
great dinner for 2 people! Food very tasty but cost is high but understandable with Covid.
This is a really great restaurant and very enjoyable.
Our experience was great up until the very end. Our server was very attentive and even took the extra step by bringing my fiancé a birthday dessert and everything to end our meal without our asking. Unfortunately, as we were leaving, I’m pretty sure we (including my fiancé and his parents) were profiled. After handling our bill with our server, closing everything out with her, and leaving the tip on the table, we stood up to put our jackets and we were approached by a woman asking if needed help with anything. Thinking nothing of it, we say no ma’am, and thank you. As we are passing the only other restaurant patrons on our side of the floor, she asks if we needed her help to make sure we pay our bill. We respond with “That’s been handled, and why would you think we didn’t pay our bill?”, and her response was I may have looked at the wrong table. There was nobody else near us due to social distancing restrictions. The exchange was handled poorly, and instead of a proper apology she played the ignorance card. I am going to assume she was the manager and if she was really that concerned, she could have looked on the table the first time she questioned us. So we will not be back, and she needs to do better interacting with her customers.
I wanted to come back and make an amendment to the above review, the general manager took the time to reach out to me individually and I was very appreciative of him doing so. He took the time to ask for specifics, explain what was shared with him via staff, & and provide Insight on the corrective measures that would be taken. Because of that I wanted to change my original rating of a 3. He handled the situation very very well.
Our server was excellent-patient, knowledgeable and helpful. We appreciate your COVID precautions
The best part of the experience was our Waitress. She was gracious, helpful and flexible in how we ordered our meal. The food was very tasty and well prepared, but it is always enhanced by the way the waitress takes the order and ties to time her service as well as presentation of the check.
Clyde's is the neighborhood go to place. The outdoor dining area is great for those of us wanting to eat outside during these times. Thank you to the staff for being so accommodating and gracious. We realize service to the outdoor dining area is challenging.
Staff attentive and helpful. Very clean and socially distanced.
Always a pleasant experience. Good service, food and at a reasonable price.
Staff attentive and helpful. Very clean and socially distanced.
Definitely not the same vide with the pandemic impacting sit-down dining. But the staff was very responsive and understand. Food as always was great. Looking forward to more normal crowds again....
Delicious food, great service
A really great restaurant with superb service. Highly recommended.
Front desk was courteous and escorted us to our table. Waitress was exceptional and polite. Other staff came by and ensured our visit was pleasant.
The food is so delicious! Love their crab cakes. The servers and staff are wonderful!
Ann Marie provides outstanding service. It was also great to relax in a dining area with a working fireplace on a cold day.
Great event with the family. All service was outstanding
We ordered Eggs Benedict and the eggs was hard. Also the bread was hard. Definitely not a good brunch
Clyde's complies with all COVID restrictions so we felt comfortable dining there. We ordered the fried oyster platter, the meatloaf platter (see photo) and the brioche bread pudding--all of which were excellent. Clyde's has an extensive list of wines by the glass and beers/ales on tap and bottled. Highly recommend.
Followed guidelines and the experience was great.
Outstanding service and food!!!!
Food, service and ambiance were all wonderful.
Quiet and safe for business meeting
Santiago our waiter was outstanding. Clydes does a great job of indoor dining during Covid. Food is always consistently good.
Felt very safe. Masks required unless actually eating or drinking.
Clyde's continues to deliver year in and year out. They are very concerned about your's and their employee's safety during COVID. We felt very comfortable eating here, and I would not hesitate to return during these trying times.
The food was excellent in taste and value, and the waitstaff and hostess were very professional from beginning to end.
Great place for lunch or light snack and dinner. Highly recommended!
