About this restaurant

Romantic
Good for special occasions
Innovative

Marcel's by Robert Wiedmaier is DC's premier fine dining establishment for over two decades. During Covid we have been open and closed numerous times with very little notice and doing our best to keep up the times. We profoundly thank our customers who return everytime after we reopen, who have generously donated to our employee fund and purchased RW Restaurant Group gift certficates. One day soon, we hope to return driving you to Kennedy Center for their fabulous shows and concerts, hosting your private parties and work functions and seeing your maskless smiles. For the time being, we are open five evenings a week with limited capacity and offering a curbside three-course dinner.

Birthday Dinner Our 1st time dining at Marcel’s since shortly before the pandemic. It was lovely to be back. The refined food is the reason for coming but the service and ambience always make dining at Marcel’s a special occasion. Thank you.

We were delighted to finally return to Marcel’s after two years away, and it did not disappoint. We were celebrating our granddaughter’s Sweet Sixteen with an elegant dinner out, and this was the perfect spot. Everyone treated her like a star. The staff all came to the table to wish her a happy birthday, and the chef had both personalized her menu and invited her to the kitchen after dinner for a photo. On top of it all, she has celiac disease, which they handled perfectly. She finished one basket of gluten free bread and received another. The staff were able to modify all the dishes she wanted to ensure that they were gluten free, while still being beautiful and delicious. It was truly a special experience, but don’t wait for an occasion to come back to Marcel’s. If they resume their limo service to the Kennedy Center, all will be right with the world again. Thank you to all who made our granddaughter’s evening remarkable.
