I took a group of 12 business associates from out of town and everyone of them raved about the food and service. Also the atmosphere really has a lot of character. I think its the oldest restaurant in Washington and many famous politicians of old and late have eaten there. Another nice aspect about it is that it has something for everyone (from exotic seafood to prime rib to burger plates) at all price ranges. Be sure to ask for their bread -it is excellent. If you only have one chance and you have a wide range of people, this is the place. Have Fun! It is located below the Hotel Washington (or maybe the building complex just North of it) on 15th St NW only a couple of blocks from the White House. If you're looking for a nice view afterwards (and perhaps an after dinner drink) Go to the top of the Hotel Washington. There is an Open air bar up there and you can't beat the view. Plus, its within walking distance of the Old Ebbit. Enjoy! -Mike
