"I recently had the pleasure of dining at Mon Ami Gabi, a French restaurant located in Reston. It was a brunch date with my wife, and I must say, the experience was delightful from start to finish. Mon Ami Gabi not only offers a charming ambiance that transports you to a Parisian bistro but also delivers exceptional cuisine and innovative drink options. Let's begin with the food. Don't skip on French onion soup! The steak frites we ordered were simply outstanding. The steak was cooked to perfection, tender, and bursting with flavor. The accompanying fries were crispy and accompanied by a delectable sauce that enhanced the overall dish. Equally impressive was the roast salmon served in a pea and asparagus puree. The salmon was impeccably cooked, moist, and flaky, while the puree added a delightful freshness to the dish. It's safe to say that both dishes left us thoroughly satisfied. When it comes to the drink selection, Mon Ami Gabi truly excels. For those who enjoy alcoholic beverages, the French martini and French 75 are highly recommended. These drinks take classic recipes and add an innovative twist, resulting in a delightful and refreshing experience. The French martini, with its blend of vodka, raspberry liqueur, and pineapple juice, was both sweet and tangy, while the French 75, made with gin, lemon juice, sugar, and topped with champagne, offered a sophisticated and bubbly sensation."

"I continue to be deeply disturbed by my experience on Saturday Feb 5, 2022. I was a member of a mixed race group who decided to dine at 7:30pm. We arrived on time for our reservation and there was no one available to greet us at the door. After waiting 4 minutes, we were asked for our vaccine cards and IDs and were seated. A group of four came in immediately after we provided IDs and were also seated (they were not mixed race). 15 minutes passed without any service including water. The group who entered behind us was not only catered to but ordered and received drinks. When I saw the server who later stated that he was a manager, I waved for his attention. His response from the base of the stairs, approximately 15 feet away, was WHAT, what 's going on! I responded, NOTHING gesturing my hands to show that there was no water and drinks on the table. His response yelling back was GOOD and proceeded to the service station. I immediately got up and followed him to address the large level of disrespect and obvious ignorance. I asked for the manager which he said he was one but then quickly stated that he wasn 't the only manager. In short, he stated that he didn 't have any time and that he was busy. While I 'm not surprised that people of this nature exist, I was surprised that they are servers in a city with a black population the size of DC 's. I will never return to this restaurant and STRONGLY advise you shouldn 't either!!! Obviously, we did not have French food that night!"
