    Welcome party

    I worked primarily with Kelsey Willis to plan a wedding welcome party in the Piedmont Room at Clyde's. Everything went great! I really appreciated how Kelsey and the events team took time to answer all my questions, despite being a restaurant that holds events every single day. They also provided flowers for the event at no charge!

    We choose Clyde's for our rehearsal dinner. It was the perfect spot. They gave us our own private room in the back. The space was cozy but we had enough room for both a cocktail hour and seated dinner. It was also beautifully decorated with wood paneling all around the room. Clyde's was extremely easy to work with. The price included small flower centerpieces printed menus, and our own bar and bartender. We received many compliments on the room and the food.

    We held our rehearsal dinner in the Piedmont Room at Clyde's and it was perfect! During the planning, they were very responsive and flexible. The quality of food and service that we got for the cost exceeded expectations. The staff was friendly, efficient and really went above and beyond. Just a small example, my grandmother asked for a Guinness and was told it was only at the bar downstairs; within 5 minutes, a waiter appeared with a glass for her. When I realized the shrimp was going faster than I'd thought, I asked for an another tray and it appeared right away. It really was a perfect rehearsal dinner and the party continued with family at the bar downstairs where other friends could meet up. I'm so happy with the whole night .

    They're an excellent place for a large group and are really attentive to your needs - all the waiters are superb! The decor is really rich and the food was fantastic, despite the size of the group all the food was well cooked and fresh. Great location in DC next to everything!

    We used the Piedmont Room at Clyde's to host our post-wedding brunch on Sunday morning. We did the breakfast buffet between 9-11 am which was perfect because our guests could come and go as they wanted. It was nice to have this touch as a last event of our wedding weekend so the guests could all say their goodbyes and head home. The food was fantastic and the service was very helpful to everyone. I worked with Dora prior to the event and she made sure we were taken care of. We also had the cash bar open for any type of drink, but especially for Bloody Marys and Mimosas! Highly recommend this room and restaurant for a wedding event!

    This review is for a private event held in the Piedmont Room at Clyde's of Gallery Place. We had a small family destination wedding outside of DC, then later hosted 50 of our friends here for a karaoke party reception in October 2014. It could not have turned out more awesome, thanks in large part to the planning and event staff here, specifically including the event coordinator Emily. Clyde's was incredibly accommodating -- from us bringing in a DJ with karaoke and party lights equipment -- to us making a custom cocktail menu for our guests to order from. There were so many little details in things that they executed not just professionally, but went above and beyond. Our guests LOVED the food and dessert (in my opinion SO much better quality than typical wedding reception food :)). And all that said about the quality of service, the prices were VERY reasonable for hosting a private event of this size including hor d'oeuvres, plated meal cooked to order, and open bar the whole night. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a medium-size event venue!!

    The Event Planning Team at Clydes in Chinatown for helping plan and put together our wedding and reception at the restaurant were professional, patient, quick to respond and very flexible.
    There was nothing to big they couldn't handle. We were very pleased with them we wish we had another wedding to plan with them ;)

    Clyde's of Gallery Place was fantastic. I was getting married outside at the Jefferson Memorial and having my reception at Clyde's in one of the banquet rooms. The service that I received was phenomenal! It rained on my wedding day, so I had to call to the restaurant to see if they could accomodate my guest and me at the last minute. They pulled it off without a hitch. The room was beautiful and the vibe was classy. Previously, I spoke with the banquet manager and told him that I was on a tight budget and he worked miracles with food and quality of service for the price that I paid. Everyone commented on the crab dip. I would have another event in this establishment in a heartbeat!

    Very satisfied with Ashley and Emily of Clyde's Gallery Place in Washington, DC. There was a party booked in the same room immediately prior to ours which we did not find out about until after the fact. This caused us some angst with set up as we only had one hour between when that party left the room and our own guests arrived. With a bit of creativity and great vendor cooperation, everything came off without a hitch. Because of this extra angst, I only rated them 4.5 out of 5 stars on the "flexibility" rating. In the grand scheme of things though, it turned out to be no big deal. The wait-staff were fantastic and Wayne the bartender was SUPERB in everyway you'd want a bartender to be. All guests complimented the food and there were zero complaints.

    We used Clyde's for our rehearsal dinner. The venue was very nice for around 100 people and the staff wascourteous and accomodating. The amenities included were good: the AV and private room. They were helpful in putting out our centerpieces and placecards as well. The food was delicious and very reasonably priced for level of service, number of staff, and quality. The cocktail hour, in particular was excellent. We didn't have to provide food choices in advance, which also was very helpful. We would definitely recommend this as a rehearsal dinner location.

    Clyde's of Gallery place had great food and great service. The room we had the dinner in was absolutely gorgeous. I would have my rehearsal dinner there again in a heartbeat. We were running behind schedule and they were very flexible in dealing with the time delays. If you want to have you RD downtown please check out this place, you won't regret it.

    I am still bewildered how Clyde's was able to accommodate our reception in the Piedmont room so well with so many other customers throughout the restaurant. Even though we had over 100 people in attendance, the quality of the food did not suffer with the large number of dishes that needed to be prepared. In fact, our guests are still raving about how much they enjoyed the food at our reception over 30 days ago. Clyde's private event manager Tim Gable is a true professional. He worked with our budget and offered us 5 star service.

    Very good food and atmosphere for classy but somewhat casual and comfortable rehearsal dinner.
