So… despite the 2.2 star rating, we walked in because a couple other places were closed for breakfast. We split the steak and eggs. While the FAMOUS BUFFET was not what I am accustomed to (4.7 million miles flying around the world) we were pleasantly surprised with the tender steak. (NOT 7 oz./more like 12). Scrambled eggs were moist. Added some sautéed onions. My girlfriend likes her steak more medium well. The VERY NUCE BLACK LADY FROM THE KITCHEN brought her smaller piece of steak back cooked how she liked it. She was so nice I tipped her $10. She hugged me and I almost cried. I realize kitchen staff are underpaid compared to wait staff. Most restaurants DONT share with the kitchen. Is why many restaurants can’t keep staff. I recommend this place and would come here again.
I liked my breakfast here. As a foreigner I wanted a typical American breakfast diner experience like saw many times in the movies. Here I got everything: the atmosphere, the rather quiet but nice lady who came with the coffee refill and when I smiled she smiled back, the group of policemen in full gear who came for their breakfast, and a steak with fried eggs for breakfast. The fries were the best I had in Washington. The price was fair. I will keep a nice memory and as a guest of the hotel next door I will come back tomorrow morning.
Harriet's is an cherished institution. It is a breakfast meeting place for groups as diverse as Proud Boys, BLM, high school field trips, AA meetings, U.S. Senators, and the homeless. Everyone is treated the same and the food is filling if not gourmet. Prices can be on the high side but happy diners are pleased to pay. Service is inconsistent - everything from attentive to non-existent. Atmosphere is relaxing and it is a wonderful place to start your day with a full stomach.

this is my favorite restaurant. I have been here more than 100 times in my life. I have never gotten spaghetti that was rightly cook or garlic bread that was perfectly toasty and soft. At the same time. I think about my favorite part is a little cockroach friends you make every single time my cockroach friend, Taylor, Swift, she was like this place remind me of haunted and I was like yeah because you’re never gonna go back because you’re haunted. I was so sad when I accidentally ate Taylor Swift cockroach she was in my spaghetti. There’s also lots of hair in it, which I thought was a nice little fiber add-in. The restaurant smells like death and I think that it reminded me of my dead grandma’s funeral. The bathroom looks like a thing that I’ve seen on criminal minds or a crime documentary or both. I absolutely adore the 1700s design of the place. It’s just gorgeous. I love how the waiters just care for the costumers by not attending to them. I love the cake. It reminded me the cockroaches.
The ham and cheese omelet was big. It was also very full of shaved ham. Two slices of toast and half a plate of home fries were included. I could not eat all of it. It was good and made you feel better about the price. It is a hole in the wall, but a good place to load up for the day.
The food was so good, that after I finished eating, gained spectacular super powers, and when I got home, my girlfriend was sitting on my bed and was looking dead in my eyes, with a face looking like she wanted it. Then all of a sudden, a group of evil ninjas busted a hole through the wall, and kidnapped her. So I tracked them down using the powers I gained from the garlic bread and I managed to defeat the biggest baddest villain of the local mafia using my acrobatic skills that I got from the sprite there. 10/10 would recommend this restaurant.
Decent family restaurant with nice choices within the Harrington Hotel. We had lobster rolls and fish sandwich and decent
I came here on a school field trip and I had a great time. I read some of the reviews before I came here and they seemed bad but it was the exact opposite. And my friends had a great time and we had the buffet. Chicken was nice and tender and the salad was fresh. Spaghetti was cooked correctly and my friend and a lot of it. One complaint is that the restaurant is over 100 years old there’s no bathroom and that the decor absolutely terrible. Service was good very helpful and when we needed to use the bathroom they told us to use the bathroom at the hotel next-door. Overall experience was great I would still love Gordon Ramsay come there because he is the homeboy and a G. Sub to PewDiePie.
Mannn, went here on my school trip and it was the bomb.com! I had 3 pieces of your “garlic” “bread” and it was so yummy in my tummy! The 2 fries I ate were also cool ig. The lemonade was pink, and if you know me, I LOVE LOVE pink. But my favorite part had to be when Dr. Michael Morbius himself came into the establishment and screeched his infamous catchphrase, “It’s morbin time”. And flew out of the place. Honestly I’d give 6 stars if I could. (Photo is me after I ate it)
