Dinner with my wife and son after picking him up at KDCA. Great raw bar happy hour 9-11 p.m. Crabcakes and chicken Alfredo were both really good . Burger- a little dry. Tasty desserts for take-home. Decent draft beer selection, but I wish they had more local beers. Impeccable service and ambiance as always.

The staff is always friendly and welcoming. The food is amazing!

The crab cakes were out of this world, and the band made pasta was delicious! You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. I can’t wait to go back!

We suggest requesting an indoor booth when booking. The charm is definitely in the history of the restaurant. We watched as they led every person/group to the patio at the back of the restaurant. It's a nice ambiance if you're not expecting to dine at the Old Ebbitt Grill, but if you are, you will be disappointed. It actually became a game to see if we could predict who would come back in to request a table inside. Almost everyone who was taken out there to dine came back in and requested to be seated inside.
Other than that, the food and our server were wonderful!

A must go when you are in D.C.

Brought friends from out of town and my husband who also had never been. They all loved it!

Old Ebbitt Grill is an institution and iconic for a reason. Great food, awesome service and incredible ambiance/atmosphere.

The raw oysters were EXTREMELY good!! My family and I will eat here every time we come back to DC!

Seated in back area but still had fun. Food is way overpriced but you know that going in

Be careful...this could be your Old Ebbit Grill experience.

I've never been disappointed with this historic, yet relevant restaurant. The Chesapeake Eggs Benedict is the best in DC!

Had friends visit from California. Made reservations for main room. Was put in the farthest atrium table possible. Asked hostess if we could move and she was beyond rude. Really sad this DC staple is turning to crap.

A DC must! Delicious food, reasonably priced. Fantastic service. Great bar with a good buzz. Old school.

Alexis was our server and OMG she was the best and the food was simply phenomenal! Had a 6PM reservation and did not get out of there until 9PM. Can’t wait to go back!

Excellent food in a great environment. Will be back!

The Old Ebbitt Grill is our go to spot for any special celebrations!
The waiters are always so knowledgeable about the menu, the food and drinks are amazing and make sure to end your meal with the peanut butter pie!

It was a great luncheon for my adult kids and my elderly mother! Something on the menu for everyone! Service was perfect. They accommodated us by moving us to a different table in order to make my mom more comfortable.

This is hands down the BEST meal we have ever had. Our waiter, Johnny, was incredible and made us feel so welcome. I look forward to coming back to DC and visiting again!!!

The staff was extremely accommodating to our group. Additionally, the reservation was convenient for our family.

Great food and wonderful service! Excellent location by the White House.

The food was very good but the portion of meatloaf was too much. Loved the Aperol Spritzer cocktail and red wine!

Terrific atmosphere in an absolutely iconic setting. A vintage Washington experience found within all Clyde's restaurants. Always a must-visit whenever in town.

Perfect place to relax and enjoy a fantastic reprieve.

It was great service and food. Made for a really enjoyable evening amongst friends.

Food was delicious. Our server, Moe, was very helpful as well as efficient.

We had Mauricio and he was amazing! So knowledgeable about the menu! Seriously amazing service from the entire staff. The oysters were amazing and the breakfast melt was such a good portion and so good! They gave me potatoes instead of fries and when I go back I’ll probably just ask for that instead! Amazing place!

Very good service and always worth the experience.

Old school, power player place and that's the experience you're going for. Great brunch. Best to go post-pandemic when ambience benefits from more people and chatter. It was a little too isolating (but very safe) to be seated so far from others.

Prom. One of the employees put out all the decorations and created a beautiful space for a prom dinner for our daughter and three other couples. The service and food were outstanding. It was a wonderful evening.

Everything was delicious. We really enjoyed The Old Ebbitt Grill and would come back again.

Great Oyster selection and the service was outstanding!

The staff was very accommodating for my party seating however the menu was disappointing. There were no more full seafood towers with lobster on the menu. It was the reason we were returning to OE to celebrate. The waitress also picked a dessert to sing happy birthday and then charged us for it which was odd.

Great server. Food was delicious.

We went to this restaurant for a business purpose. Not by choice. When we went however, we fell in love. Great service. Fantastic food. Good drinks too. The place has interesting history and tons of memorabilia to look at. Its location is convenient to a walking tour near the White House. All in all an amazing experience. We were there for brunch but I could imagine the bar areas at night, full of friends having drinks, laughter and good conversation. I am hooked and will definitely be back and recommend Old Ebbit Grill to friends!

First time at this oldest restaurant in Washington DC and the experience was awesome

Great ambiance! Service was outstanding and the food was delicious!

Old Ebbits is a tradition that exceeds it's expectations. The filet mignon was absolutely melt in your mouth delicious. The Duroc pork chop a surprisingly delightful choice. The waitstaff was very helpful and informative. The ambience inside was a perfect backdrop for a fine meal.

We’ve been enjoying Ild ORG for many years and it never disappoint. Our waiter Ronny was fantastic. Warm, friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.

My overall experience was good. The only real hiccup we had was when the kitchen sent fries with my order when I had requested a salad. Our server was excellent and attentive.

The food was great, the drink were perfectly made and our server was awesome! She was very nice, attentive and knowledgeable.
