Does 1789 have high chairs?

Planning to take my (well-behaved) one year old for a 4 o'clock meal...

Maybe rough. They don't open until 6. 5:30 on weekends.

Go to the Tombs at 4pm instead. No one will mind.

I hear that Ruth's Chris is very family friendly.

Seriously that is not a good idea. I have kids and with so many nice kid friendly place, it is pretty selfish to bring your "well-behaved" baby to a very nice and expensive and small restaurant.

Just go to The Tombs.

DH suggested bringing our 3yo there for an early dinner a few weeks ago. I nixed it for the same reason others are -- it's not appropriate for little kids and it isn't fair to other diners. Our child has been going out to eat since he was born and behaves remarkably well, but he's still 3. I'd apply this same rule to a 1yo.

Old Ebbit, Clyde's, Almost anywhere with out door seating, Georgetown waterfront restaurants, M & S.

If it is on the list of places where people might consider popping the question, then no. The willard room, L'Auberge, Inn at Little Washington, etc.

+1 and, despite the jokes about Ruth's Chris, any of the steakhouses of its ilk would be fine if you went on the very early side. (Not 10pm on NYE)

Children under 10 are not allowed at Little Washington...

1789 is nice but not that nice. You know your kid. If you feel comfortable and you're going early, go for it. And, yes, they have high chairs.

I usually think it is fine to have kids at most restaurants, but not 1789. It is quiet and not child appropriate at all. Very rude to do so.
