- TThereseWashington, D.C. Area •13 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoMy guest and I both loved the ambiance of the restaurant. The food was very tasty and the service was wonderful. It's important to know that if one reserves a table in the indoor dining room there are a set of steep stairs that would not be easy to climb for anyone with weak legs. But I can't wait to return for another dining experience at Godfrey's - very enjoyable!More infoGodfrey's$$$$• European• Falls Church•4.6
- JJasonWashington, D.C. Area •2 reviews5.0Dined on Oct 28, 2026Everything was excellent! The team was extremely hospitable,knowledgeable, and fantastic. We tried a bit of everything and it was all delicious and truly unique. One thing I look for in a culinary experience is the story that the menu is telling. The offerings tell a fresh story- huitlacoche in pasta?! It's common knowledge that the use of tomatoes in Italian cuisine comes from Mexico, forever binding these 2 far away locations, but telling that story with Huitlacoche in pasta is more than clever. Cocktails and wine programming are top notch also! Martini service is really cool, multiple Brazilian classic cocktails and wines from Spain,Italy, France. Great job by the team! I plan to frequent this spot, there's a lot more I need to try on the menu!More infoBar Nuestro$$$$• European• Navy Yard•4.9
