Clyde's of Chevy Chase

Still one of my favorite restaurants after all these years.Service is consistently good. Food is consistently excellent. Atmosphere is relaxed.And there's a parking lot across the street (Clyde's will validate).

We wanted to find a place to get a quick bite that was open late so we could sit, drink a bottle of wine, and chat for hours! Thankfully Clyde's is open late and they have a wide variety of options for food so it seemed perfect. We made a last minute reservation and it worked out great!The food was nothing super special, but it came out quickly and was good enough! We had had a big lunch prior to this so we didn't need much. The pierogis were great, the arancini was kinda cold but fine, the wings were alright (my boyfriend wanted old bay hot honey seasoning which wouldn't be my personal choice but he liked them!), and the salad was great! Honestly we came for the bottle of wine, but stayed for the food. Our server, Ian, was great and attentive. He seemed a little nervous and felt bad he wasn't more attentive but honestly he was totally fine and very nice! The restaurant itself was busy when we first got there at 8:15 pm so I'm not surprised things were a bit hectic! The vibes were good though and the restaurant was clean. I think this worked out nice because we weren't looking for anything crazy fancy, but it definitely made for a nice evening out.

Clyde's Chevy Chase holds a special place in my heart, as it has been a cherished destination since my childhood growing up in the area. Now, it's a delight to share this experience with my child, who is equally enamored by the vibrant ambiance, particularly the captivating trains in the main dining area and the vintage cars downstairs, which have become a ritual stop for us.The service has consistently been impeccable--attentive and thoughtful, ensuring every visit feels special. The menu never fails to impress. The burger is a classic, flawlessly executed, while the Parmesan-crusted trout is a delightful symphony of flavors. The steak is consistently cooked to perfection, and the crab soup is a standout, brimming with generous lumps of crab and seasoned to perfection.Clyde's Chevy Chase masterfully combines nostalgia and exceptional dining, creating memories for the next generation while remaining an enduring favorite for mine.

Best place for late night happy hour oysters anywhere around the DMV you can always find Clyde's!

The remoulade and the greens really helped balance the spiciness of the calamari, which was tender and crispy.

Love the ambiance of this restaurant. The little train above the tables is such a cute touch. Service was very very friendly and food was delish.

The Clyde's at Chevy Chase has a nice large menu, a beautifully decorated space, and a very friendly waitstaff (shout out to our friendly server Andrew). The food was great. Take a look at the arancini, the Florentine Eggs Benedict and the Nashville Hot Chicken sandwich (which IS spicy, so ordering the side of fruit helps to cool the month down afterwards!).

Good all American menu options. They ran out of bread! Can you believe that? No buns, no bread for dunking, no bread basket. I guess the universe is saying no to carbs Small bar area, plentiful parking with validation. The service was on point, reflecting the Clyde's values. Not too noisy, good for business meetings, and good company, you can hear each other. Salads are delicious, fresh, and plentiful.

We were cramped in a corner booth with very little room, we kept kicking each other under the table accidentally. Restaurant was empty at 5pm on a Monday, specifically asked for a table away from other people on the OpenTable reservation noted needing more privacy and we were seated right next to another table. We could've had some time to discuss business before the restaurant was busy if we were seated slightly away from other guests. Our service was very unfriendly and there was a hassle with our checks leaving my credit card unusable. The manager that assisted us didn't really help. Our food was lackluster and our overall experience was disappointing for spending over $230. The service aspect actually ruined our evening because he was so miserable with us but friendly with the adjacent table. All 3 of us left with a bad taste in our mouth.

Went to Clyde's last night as part of our" Staycation" at the Marriott-Fabulous server was so knowledgeable and had only been there a week, you go Jeff!Got the green salad, Parmesan trout ( hollidaise on the side), and the Catfish-Splendid meal, Same decor as 20 years ago... carpet could use a refresh.Otherwise, always a staple
