    Very busy night for FF! We went there tonight on Christmas, which also happens to be my birthday. There was a mix up with the prime rib and they ended up being out of it but didn’t find out until my family had their food. I work in a restaurant so I know these things happen sometimes. They were extremely accommodating. The manager, Chris, and our server (her name just slipped from my mind!) went above and beyond! They made sure that we left feeling happy and that’s all we could really ask for! The food was delicious as always! P.s- Please add a nonalcoholic beer option to your menu! 😁

    My husband and I decided to grab an early lunch while we were picking up a Christmas dinner order in the area. I had no idea that there was a sister restaurant to Clyde’s. I have been to the location in DC, and I really enjoyed it there. So, I figured I would have the same experience, and I was right. The food is delicious, it was beautifully decorated for Christmas, and our server was knowledgeable and friendly. We didn’t even need to ask for refills; a replacement drink was on the table before we could even think to ask. Now, that is some stellar service! We will return with friends, and I have already recommended to a friend who is also a fan of Clydes in DC. Happy holidays!
