Creme

  • Review
  • Monday, August 25, 2008

I have previously written about the quest for a good brunch in DC.  Today, I had the opportunity to visit a place that I hadn't been to in a while and it proved to be a nice visit.  I went to Creme Cafe on U Street.

When we arrived, Creme was packed and it wasn't even noon.  We were told that we would have to wait around 20 minutes for a table.  We were seated near the front of the restaurant in one of the highboy stations that was convertetd for three people.  I usually prefer a regular table.  This highboy felt a bit crowded for three people and once our dishes arrived, there wasn't much place for all of our dishes. 

I also had the same exact dish that I had when I first went to Creme almost two years ago, the Chesapeake.  I always try to insert seafood into every meal.  The crab cakes were very good.  Others in my office had the chicken and waffles and the other person had an omelet and numerous sides.   

Everyone liked their dish.  My only issue with Creme is that the service was a bit slow.  We ended up waiting a while for our bill to be collected so we could leave.  The menu doesn't seem to have changed very much since the restaurant opened which can be both good and bad. 

If you want a fairly decent brunch at a pretty good price, visit Creme.
