<p>"Absolutely loved the vibe. What stood out even more was the wide range of vegetarian options - fresh, flavorful, and not your usual boring picks. Perfect for a cozy brunch or a relaxed evening out. Amazing spot. Great staff and the food is on point."</p>

<p>"Great for a casual night out. Went on a Wednesday and there was live music on the patio. Patio was full and music was great. We ordered some martinis and cocktails. Espresso Martini & Purple Haze martini for the girls that was also on special for $7 - Great deals!"</p>

<p>"Symposium offers all the food you would expect from a well established restaurant. From steaks to burgers, to vegan dishes. If you go, save room for one of the many large desserts that you can't help but look at all dinner in their impressive cake display."</p>

<p>"The food was delicious, hot and there were even leftovers. Honestly this experience took so much off my plate and made the party so much more enjoyable. I would have Georgetown Symposium cater again for me in a heartbeat!"</p>

<p>"Half price pasta on Tuesdays and Happy hour prices on drinks too, Great daily specials. Mondays burger and fries  and a premium draft 18oz "   "Nice spot for lunch and happy hour. They also have great daily deals."</p>
