This is the perfect spot for a date night. The food and old fashioned were delicious. The dining area is next to the kitchen, which is an experience I never had. We also got to see Chef Edward Kyun Lee! He created a wonderful menu that I was not expecting. Definitely would recommend this restaurant if you are able to snag a reservation!

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.

An amazing experience from start to finish. Our server explained all the menu items and recommended some based on our preferences. The food itself was exceptional. The service was like a choreographed symphony. The decor is all imported from India, and stunning, especially the front room. And the drinks! Every one an experience.
