Ladurée

"Honestly their food is ok but there are plenty of other coffee shops in Georgetown with much much much better service. We came at 4 pm on a Saturday and wanted a nice pick me up meal. It was an oddly warm day in January and we were out by the waterfront enjoying the views but not hungry enough for a meal we popped in and were greeted really rudely. The waitress asked my mother in law abruptly if she had a reservation and we did not. But we waited for a while and eventually for seated. The poor lady at table next to us was with her family and it looked like one of the members is undergoing chemotherapy or was ill. Poor thing, the waitress came by and asked them to leave even though they didn’t finish eating ….. she said the reservation that had that table arrived. It was really strange cuz there was another empty table close by. Their seating area is super small and likely that’s where all the conflict comes from because they only have like 5 tables. But it was awful. They both kept going back and forth and the waitress kept insisting that they get up. She really ruined the whole experience. Anyways, we had average food and it was an ok time but it was super awkward and every time we asked the waitress for anything we felt like a huge burden. I ordered fries at 5:01 and supposedly the kitchen was closed. We were never informed that the kitchen closes at a specific time if we had last minute orders."

"Interesting place. Certainly not for everyone but a neat place to stop in for an occasional treat. The chocolates were delicious, albeit quite expensive. We stopped in on a whim while walking past after dinner so definitely not a destination restaurant for us. The decor was a bit over-the-top but the employees were all pleasant and efficient. I'm not sure I'll ever go back to this place- and that's not really a dig on them, it's just that I don't typically spend $75 for a small bag of chocolate treats. Even as delicious as they were."

"This cafe caters to a specific audience thus I doubt it would appeal to the mass market. You either leave very satisfied or you won’t come again. The pastries look great. The drinks on the other hand are pretty average. The servers were all very nice and attentive. For some people that alone would warrant another visit."

"We ordered breakfast and tea! The eggs Benedict was good, but not anything groundbreaking. However, the tea, pastries and macarons were fantastic! The tea option is per person, but could be split between two if you wanted. It comes with 6 macarons to go, with plenty of options to choose from. Everything is beautifully decorated and flavorful!"

"I loved the decors how it literally makes you feel like Pari all the way. However for the price that it is offered at I expected a little better presentation of the food and service. Overall our visit was enjoyable. The food was delicious. Of course as we’re the macaroons."
