Our Vision is simple: to bring unique cultural culinary traditions to the eyes, hearts, and well, mouths of Georgetown students.
We aim to provide students with events that will take them out of their comfort zones and widen their knowledge of food and culture, all while doing good and making friends. We do this by hosting one-of-a-kind events at internationally themed restaurants in the D.C. area, partnering with cultural organizations on campus, and giving back to the community through social impact initiatives; each and every event we hold stays true to our mission to learn and grow in any capacity we can. Whether that be learning something new from someone new, or trying a food that we would be scared to otherwise, we hope that our years in college will be shaped by much more than just classes and internships. Instead, we hope they will be shaped by unique experiences surrounded by genuine people.

Being a member will grant access to all events that the GU Eating Society hosts, particularly membership-only restaurant events and bonding events. However, we do host events that are open to all Georgetown students, so non-membership does not mean that the GU Eating Society's events are off-limits.
Washington, D.C. is our common home, and so we aim to fully take advantage of all the wonderful city has to offer. This includes a vast array of exquisite restaurants – D.C. contains some of the best restaurants in the world, as well as one of the most diverse arrays of cultural cuisines captured in the restaurant scene. However, knowing fully well that D.C. is also home to less fortunate circumstances, we additionally aim to help our local community through service work, particularly in the food sphere. We believe if we can enjoy the delicious foods that D.C. has to offer, D.C.'s natives should be able to, too.
