   Smaller portions than we had had elsewhere. Tasty but just felt needed a little more. Need to increase cocktail menu choices too!

   Food was delicious. I started with the fried zucchini, shrimp and grits and ended the night with smores sundae. It was delicious.

   Said is an amazing server who understands the clients very well and very kind and compassionate. The place is nice, very nice. The Brussels sprouts are amazing, but the NY steak was not the best. Still had a wonderful time.

   Food is usually very good but this time just okay. Like many downtown DC restaurants, Lincoln has been on the decline the past couple of years. Was hopeful that a Valentine's Day Dinner would be special but sadly disappointed.

   Great food. However the service could have been better. 30 minutes to get our drink had to ask where it was. Waiter forgot to put in our appetizer, tables all around we’re having the same issues— maybe they were short staffed

   I was shocked it was quiet on a Friday night considering how GREAT the food and the vibe of the place was!!! Food was amazing, ambiance was great, and the staff went out of their way to make my mom’s birthday super special!! I’ll be back, Lincoln!!!!

   Absolutely amazing food! Service could have been better but it was a busy time with a lot of tourists so I don’t blame them.

   For DC the price is decent for what you get. Omelet station always great 👍. Waffle station has many options and the food variety was delicious. I loooove the bacon! This is a regular spot for me.

    Went for a family New Year’s brunch and everything was absolutely lovely. Decided to order a la carte instead of the brunch buffet and it was a good move… we could hardly eat wht we order let alone go for seconds. Any restaurant that can satisfy a Boomer. Gen X, Gen Z and Gen ALpha to the point of being stuffed to our eyelids on a holiday is a winner in my book.
