  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Neighbourhood gem
Just steps from the Smithsonian National Zoo, Marriott Wardman-Park and Omni Shoreham, LiLLiES Restaurant & Bar is a family-owned restaurant which serves a mix of traditional Italian and Mediterranean cuisine with a contemporary edge.

When the weather is warm, diners can relax around mosaic tables on the terrace patio. On cooler days, the hardwood floors, candlelight and exposed brick inside make for a snug retreat. Brunch is served on both Saturdays and Sundays, and offers options for health-conscious patrons, such as a Greek yogurt parfait, and for those looking to indulge—say, in the Nutella-smothered French toast.

    Wide variety of menu offerings convinced us to try it. The appetizers were nothing special and a little disappointing but our main courses were better. Two issues were the temperature (too cold) which they refused to adjust and that we were charged prices for a few items slightly higher than advertised, which we chose not to mention. Others may want to try this restaurant simply because of the variety of items offered is likely to please all guests in a party.

    Hi Jess, Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We’re pleased to hear you enjoyed your main courses and found our menu variety appealing. However, we sincerely apologize for the issues you experienced, including the temperature and the pricing discrepancy. Due to ongoing renovations, we were unable to adjust the temperature as we normally would, and the outdoor menu had not been updated to reflect current pricing, which led to the error. We deeply regret any inconvenience this caused during your visit. We’d love the opportunity to make it right. If you could contact us privately through our website, we’d be happy to reimburse you for the extra cost and provide you with a coupon for a discounted meal on us the next time you visit. Warm regards, LiLLiES TEAM

    I can't give a fair review for my recent visit. There was a large wedding party taking most of the seating, and, of course, conversing. The wait staff was good, though. Once the party broke up, service with returned to its good self.
