    Great time and good food as usual. Disappointing in that it was my 37th anniversary and I had mentioned it in my reservation. Nothing from the restaurant. Maybe I expected too much.

    This was probably the best experience I’ve had at Old Ebbitt Grill. We got seated in the bar area, which was warm and comforting on a cold, snowy night. Our waiter was awesome…incredible competent with just the right amount of sass. The food was amazing…everything we ate was delicious. And the company was wonderful. I can’t wait for others to come into town to take them here.

    The greeting, food and service were excellent. I had the lobster grilled cheese and fries. The server was kind enough to give me a taste of a wine to help me decide between two. The decor and architecture are warm and upscale feeling. The interior is gorgeous.
