Social Profile:

Pronounced ‘la show me air’, La Chaumière is as close as it gets to dining in a French country inn. The unpretentious atmosphere enhanced by the central stone fireplace, wood beams and stucco walls offers a rustic and romantic escape from city life for the last 46 years. Loyal patrons are invariably dazzled by the consistent quality of food prepared by Chef de Cuisine Patrick Moulet and a well thought out wine list featuring the wines of Bordeaux. Partners Gil Fornaris and Mike Connelly, along with their staff, thank you for the opportunity to serve you and hope that you enjoy your visit to La Chaumière. Merci beaucoup et bon appetit.

Area staple has traditional French fare & a rustic feel with a stone fireplace & country-inn decor.

Best food I’ve had in DC, no competition. But be prepared to be judged. The waitstaff will be affable to some and throw plates down at others. Not to mention, if you’re not dressed “enough” (by whatever unwritten rules this restaurant abides by) you’ll never get a seat. Dress up and beware! Food is kind of worth the treatment, somehow.

Great restaurant!! Came here for Valentine’s Day, love the location kind of tucked off. The food and service were good. I just had an issue with seating even tho we had reservations we still had to wait I would say about 25 mins but maybe it was because of the occasion. Another issue I had was my lady ordered her streak medium and they brought it out well done but quickly changed it without an issue so that was good. The Lamb chops were amazing which was a great choice, the wine was amazing we both enjoyed it, and the lobster bisque was good as well. I recommend giving this restaurant a try for sure.

My fiancées family has been coming here since before she was born, and they have always talked about it as one of their favorite restaurants and I now know why. Everything was incredibly flavorful and very authentic to true French food. The quenelles are a must try, along with the soufflé (I preferred the chocolate but the grand marnier was a huge hit).

Restaurant Week is one of the best seasonal deals for foodies like me. There were some places I had in mind. Unfortunately, every place I wanted to attend was booked. I frantically searched for other places and finally stumbled upon La Chaumiere in Georgetown. It’s a restaurant I’ve never heard of before and decided to explore.

Was sat right away after arriving for our reservation. Place was packed but the waiter was very attentive. I ordered the steak, and it was cooked a perfect medium rare. Would come back again!

My wife and I love this restaurant. We ate there again last night and enjoyed great food, wine and service – – as usual. Their pike quenelle is one of the best dishes in DC. And, since they were in season i ordered soft shell crabs which i look forward to every year. The cream of asparagus soup was perfect: light, fresh and tasty to start the meal. Parking is easy in crowded Georgetown with an arrangement with the Four Seasons Hotel across the street.

Tonight I had my first dinner here (I’m new to town) and I have to say this is one of the best meals I’ve had in many years. I worked for a French family many years ago and this meal brought back memories of those good times. The onion soup was rich and flavourful, the Salmon en Croute was delicate and crispy, and the Grand Marnier souffle was light and smooth. The flavors present in this meal can only be achieved by the masterful execution of traditional French cooking methods that go back hundreds of years. And the staff at La Chaumiere knows exactly what they are doing.

I was in town for a work event and my family that lives in the area took me here since it’s one of their favorite places. It was incredible. It was the best salmon I’ve ever had. I’ve never had French salmon that’s wrapped inside a pastry but it was so delicious. Make sure you order the soufflé when you place your entree order. They chocolate soufflé was PERFECT! Next time I’m in town I’ll be back.

Despite the host’s manners, this is by far the best restaurant in Washington, D.C. All dishes are simple and excellent, but the apple tart is a must.
