- AArthurWashington, D.C. Area •12 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoSuperb dining experience with excellent input from the wait staff. Dined at lunch on a Federal holiday so the number of customers was unusually small -- on the other hand, it was quiet and made for easy conversation. The soup (French onion) and sandwich combo was a real bargain. This was my fourth time, including both lunch and dinner. so Josephine is clearly a favorite desintation.More infoJosephine - Old TownPrice: Expensive• French• Alexandria•4.7
- SSonjaSan Antonio •3 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoAlthough the restaurant was a bit busy, with no seat untaken when we first arrived, the noise and atmosphere was still relatively quiet and calm. I was not sure what to expect as I have only had afternoon tea outside of the US. The food, the tea, and the staff were all wonderful. The food was especially good and presented well with no finishes overlooked. I did order a more savory dish in addition to the full tea service. The chicken and leak pie was absolutely delicious and I highly recommend trying anything that might sound appeasing to your palet. Lady Camellia is highly recommended. My daughter and I will be back soon!More infoLady CamelliaPrice: Very Expensive• Afternoon Tea• Alexandria•4.6

- LLizabethVIPWashington, D.C. Area •163 reviews5.0Dined on Feb 10, 2025Our first experience dining at Chez Billy was delightful. It is an intimate restaurant with beautiful decor and attentive staff. The Caesar Salad and Onion Soup started our meal and were delicious ( the Caesar the best I’ve ever had). The Tuna and Duck entrees were perfectly prepared. We ended our dinner with the cheesecake and rice pudding … delish! Billy Sud is a little Georgetown gem.More infoChez Billy SudPrice: Very Expensive• French• Georgetown•4.8
