"I ordered "Duck and Eggs". The whites of my poached eggs were runny even though I ordered them "medium" which every other restaurant serves as cooked whites. When the food was brought to our table the eggs were missing and I have to flag someone down to ask for them. Edgar advertises a "Bottomless Champagne Brunch" for Sunday. Both my and my friends glasses were several times empty and we had to ask the glasses to be filled. Certainly not the level of service I expect for a restaurant associated with the Mayflower Hotel."

"Service was exceedingly slow. Salmon was terribly overcooked... we sent back both to the kitchen and the next two were also very overcooked. Appetizers were well done and the couple with us had good steak... cooked well. Overall experience was disappointing, especially for the price point."

"Going in I was hopeful that the Mayflower's renovation would be an exciting new restaurant to add to the list of places I frequent, but after comically bad service (our waiter brought the wrong food to the table next to us four times), and an uninspired menu, I can honestly say it was one of my worst dining experiences in DC. Sadly eating at Edgar was about as good as you could expect from a Marriott restaurant in some Podunk town, not worth trying."

"I think EDGAR is a great place for a business lunch, though the service was sub par. The server came over to tell us the soup of the day- only saying that- walking away so that we had to "chase" her to request water. I also had to ask three times for condiments. The ambiance is so-so- the hotel lobby is wonderful! The food was decent and reasonably priced. I wouldn't hesitate to send a business associate there for a meal or drink when staying at the hotel."

"I was wary of Edgar based upon some reviews, but I was pleasantly surprised. I reserved a table for 3 at noon and we were seated by the hostess right away. Our server was a little difficult to understand, but he was nice and, with a little effort, we were able to understand him. We ordered the arugula salad, the farmers market sandwich, and the mussels, and the food was ready remarkably quickly. We were all satisfied with the food, and the lunch prices were reasonable. Service was on the whole very good, with the manager even coming by to check that we were okay. The redesign of the restaurant is also a delight, and we enjoyed the ambiance. I will return to Edgar in the future as a convenient, reasonably priced lunch destination."

"As many recent reviewers have noted, the service was not good. The cheese plate and brussel sprouts arrived at the same time because our server didn't ask if we wanted the brussel sprouts with the main meal. Our server also forgot to enter our individual appetizers into the system so our entrees were brought instead. The manager and others scrambled to make up for the oversight with the appetizers, apologizing and comping the appetizers, which we appreciated. But our server never acknowledged his mistake. The food was average but there were some standouts: the butternut squash soup was very good; two of the three cheeses were hard to push away. This place has potential; let's hope they can get their service straight."

"Horrible service. It felt like an hour passed between when we were seated and when we were asked our order and in that time we saw other groups get up and walk out. Then again, our food took forever and a day to come out. As we waited the ages it took to flag down a waiter for the check the couple next to us, who had been seated around the time we put in our order, STILL hadn't even been asked their order. The food was nice enough. The decore was cool. It could have been a great place for groups but I would never take someone there."

"ASide from cold crab cakes, the service, drinks (amazing), and entrees were quite good. I was expecting a bad experience base upon other comments but this place is worth a try as they sort out their growing pains. Our server couldn't have been nicer and only wanted to help and was truly thrilled that I loved the cocktail that he suggested I order. It was authentic and refreshing to have a server who cared so much,"

"I was a fan of the old Town and Country bar and very curious about the new Edgar. Ugh -- never going back. The room-temp food is generic and unremarkable except for the excessive salting. A humdrum glass of wine is $18 and the somewhat loud Muzak completes the general vibe of bland, you-could-be-anywhere hotel bar.
This is Dupont Circle, and one block away in any direction is better food, drink and atmosphere at any price. There's no excuse for this place -- which has a very heavy, cruisey, businessman-on-the-make pickup vibe btw -- to be this bad.
The service, however, was very nice."

"Had a great time at Edgar's. Went with another couple and really enjoyed it. The ambience was nice, great cocktail and wine list. The menu was small but was decent. I had the hanger steak which I enjoyed. It's attached to the Maylower Hotel which was absolutely gorgeous. I recommend it, good for couples but also groups."

Second time- -waited at a table in teh bar area for 20 minute to get a menu and then waiter never came back- walked out. Last time- waited forever to get menu and then waited forever for order to be taken.
Waiters need to pick up the pace adn be attentive or it will never work."

"The roasted beet salad was very flavorful, although I would prefer actually lettuce with the beets. The farmer's market vegetable sandwich was absolutely delicious with the fresh veggies on the ciabatta bread. You can keep that on the menu all of the time! The ice cream sandwich dessert was fabulous!"

"The food wasn't special, considering you are in one of the classic hotels in DC. I am willing to try again and encourage others because the restaurant certainly looks nice. I had read poor reviews on service but that seems to be ok. The waiters are a little awkward in some areas but nothing obnoxious. Need some fine tuning. But they need to jazz up the food a bit. Sort of mediocre."

"Salad looked like it came from a cafeteria. Crab cakes tasted like frozen food. Drinks took 30 minutes to get to me, and half the ice had melted (I had to ask for them, otherwise the server forgot). Server was difficult to communicate with and was very disorganized. At one point, instead of bringing us some butter on a plate, one server just brought a whole stick of butter cut into chunks. It was extremely expensive for what it was. Took more than 2 hours to eat appetizers (no main meals) and one round of drinks."

"Our server was not customer service oriented. She forgot to bring out our beverages, we had to continue to remind her. She took too long to take our food order and she got the order incorrect. Very poor service and the restaurant was not crowded."

"The service was awful - very unprofessional. The food was awful - even the ice tea was terrible. It was obvious that it wasn't a "privately" owned and operated restaurant. Seemed more like the attitude of having a captive audience in a hotel - likely that no one would return."

"Food was good, the space is very nice. Service was a little on the slow side, from start to finish (hostess through server). Guessing it may be due to the restaurant still being new. Only complaint--our table was a bit awkward. We were seated at a table for two, that was narrow but long, as if it was intended to be a part of larger table or even a side table. The legs made it impossible to cross your legs. Luckily, this did not appear to be the standard table. Look forward to trying the restaurant again."

"The food was great and loved the scene, especially the wrap-around bar and standing tables. However, as many Yelpers expressed in their reviews, the service is pretty substandard. Our waitress seemed to have short-term memory loss and was unfamiliar with several items on the menu and most on the drink menus. For those with low tolerance, I would not recommend. However, if you come with the right expectations and a bit of humor, it is a great meal and date spot."
