    Amazing experience. Food was really good, but the best part was the piano player! He was so good and made the ambiance of the restaurant so much better. Truly great experience. Will come back!

    We had the best night at the Ebbitt Room! Our experience started with great drinks by Fletcher at the bar and carried through all the way to dessert. The service was excellent and the food was delicious. We felt like we were in a Hallmark movie with the snow falling outside! Great night. We already booked our next stay.
