"This restaurant is mad terrific! Our favorites from the menu were the torched oysters and sweet plantain. Oh and the roobisos tea yoghurt with passion fruit is absolutely worth making room for; Could have it daily. This restaurant also deserves to be praised for their interior design. The vibe created by the large rounded windows and dark walls is sexy and energizing. Just being here makes you feel rather fashionable. Good service too!"

"Visited Bronze for the first time during DC Restaurant Week and the experience was phenomenal. Before going, I checked out their Instagram and website to prep me for the visit. The website and IG do not do this place enough justice. You just have to experience it. There is so much attention to detail in every aspect of the restaurant. From the decor, lighting, design to the menu (yes, the back of the restaurant week menu card was bronze in color!). The food was very flavorful and not overpowering/ over seasoned. You really can taste and savor the flavor/ spices in every bite. Plate presentation is definitely 10/10! The best part about coming during restaurant week, we were able to try different offerings on the menu. The cocktails are handcrafted and are very delicious! The atmosphere of the restaurant fit the theme also. The music was not too loud, you were still able to enjoy the music while enjoying a conversation at your table. The lighting was perfect for dinner, not too dark. The service was amazing! Your plates and silverware are changed out between courses and your glasses are constantly refilled with water. It has been a long time since I was excited to try a new restaurant in DC, black owned at that (IYKYK). Bronze was also recently nominated as a 2024 James Beard Award finalist in the category of Best Chef in the Mid Atlantic... and I see why! Bronze exceeded my expectations and I will certainly be returning for another wonderful dining experience!"

"Truly a hidden gem in J st if you’re not looking closely. Excellent cocktail selection & delicious non alcoholic mocktails too. Service there was super welcoming, friendly and efficient. Suggestions were made as needed and the experience was efficiently tended to. Love the desserts are rich and not too sweet and you seriously can’t go wrong with any appetizers or main courses. Love how they separate their menu by land, sea and garden"

"Such a great spot -- hidden gem on H ST. The food, service and vibes were all exceptional. The flavors for food and drink are familiar yet when combined in a different way, the tastes are so new and refreshingly good. Greyses provided us with such great care -- we enjoyed her recommendations and had the best time trying out new dishes / cocktails. The design of the restaurant, from art to materials used, is beautiful -- bold and at the same time, warm and welcoming."

"EXCEPTIONAL!!! It's been a long while since my husband and I enjoyed a restaurant in DC that much. Everything was simply amazing: the setting, the design, the music, the very attentive bartender and servers, and of course the food. Oysters were phenomenal, the light condiments that accompany them were a perfect touch of acidity, heat, and saltiness; they didn't overpower oysters at all but were just a perfectly balanced combination. We also tried squid, chicken and coconut rice. Now, I rarely give praise to rice but this one was so flavourful, perfectly cooked, moist, different. The service was also top notch. Unlike so many places nowadays, they didn't just drop all dishes at the table at once. The courses were perfectly timed, giving us enough time to enjoy cocktails in between. The bartender checked on us frequently to make sure we have all we need. All in all we cannot wait to go back! Thank you team Bronze!"
