- BanueApril 28, 2013Chesapeake Benedict isn't on the menu for Saturday brunch but they will make to order! Very yum.
- Karen L.December 15, 2011Classic DC watering - hole. Consistently offers very good food but not great. Late night happy hour = half price oysters from the raw bar. It's a steal in DC. Mix of tourists and locals
- Martin ManApril 8, 2012The first time we came here Clint Eastwood had just made the movie in the line of fire. This restaurant is a must stop on any stay in DC
- Chris LintottMarch 17, 2023It’s busy, but there are four bars with open seating and it’s more fun there anyway. Ask at the desk for directions
- MariaApril 28, 2018Nice place, lots of people, good food (not outstanding though). Service was absolutely amazing!
- Kim ComptonMay 12, 2013Try the Cannoli Il Casa or the Crab cakes--both are outstanding! The mixed drinks are expensive but the Punch one tastes like grown up Hawaiian Punch.
- Josh WuDecember 23, 2013Crab cakes don't skimp out on the crab. Trout Parmesan is large and in charge
- Wonderful bar with great late night specials. Reasonably priced given how fancy the decor is.
- Jorge MachaenDecember 3, 2017Their sandwiches were really good. And the mixed drinks were on point. Fairly priced.
- Kamilla MadsenJuly 9, 2014Get the buffalo wings for starters and share them! There are plenty for 2-3 people and they are damn good ;-)
- Eggs Long Island and Eggs Chesapeake. Also - raw oysters and Jonah crab claws during Happy Hour - great deal!
- Mary Kate KeapplerMarch 26, 2016Came for breakfast and everyone enjoyed their meal. Handled a table of 10 very well.

- Paige NicoleApril 17, 2015Very good food --a great place to bring people from out of town given the history and proximity to sights
- Thaís SoaresFebruary 14, 2019Try the fried calamari. The place is not as expensive as it may seem if you are going for beer and snacks.
- Melissa DelaCalzadaApril 25, 2010Brunch: The Breakfast Club - french toast, stuffed with ham/cheese, wrapped in bacon, baked crisp with vermont Maple Syrup... OMG!!!! Skip the fruit and order a side of cheddar grits.
- Zintiha G, Loya, REALTORMay 15, 2013The bacon wrapped salmon with mashed potatoes and spinach was delicious! Try the Ebbitt Mojito as well!!

- Polina WeitzJuly 1, 2019Came for breakfast. Waffles were delicious, pancakes were just ok. I assume they are better for dinner/meat-related items. Decor and service are great.
- Beth HolzAugust 8, 2015Oldest bar and restaurant in DC. Busy and loud. Enjoying the oysters and local pour.
- Ryan EickApril 14, 2022The oysters and crab cakes are absolutely incredible. But pro tip the crab cakes are tiny
- Vino50: Grape American Road TripDecember 23, 2013Try the Assorted Raw Oysters - Nothing beats assorted oysters at the Ebbitt paired with a DC Brau Oyster Porter
- Tyler GalpinDecember 6, 2014Sat us at a table right beside the kitchen door even though there was a good amount of seating available. Oysters were good. They forgot a spoon for the sauce though. Attention to detail is lacking.
- Tim ChristensenJuly 2, 2019There’s a small, somewhat hidden out-of-the-way bar that only regulars know about. Shhh!
- Pam BlumeJuly 22, 2016I had the pastrami sandwich for lunch. It had enough pastrami to open a deli! Yum!

- Jim WilliamsAugust 13, 2012Best place for comfort food in DC and you might just see anyone there. A great place for food and star sightings.
- A bit lacking on the holiday spirit. They were running 45 minutes behind and the host said it was our fault for arriving 5 minutes late. That will win the hearts and minds of your customers....#fail
- Chefs FeedAugust 22, 2014Adam Sobel, chef of Bourbon Steak, eats here on his nights off. He loves the Oysters on the half shell. Read more

- Tom ScottMarch 25, 2023Often very busy but you can always just turn up and get a seat at one of the bars.
- Philip TamDecember 10, 2014Great service and seafood. Great for special occasions or business meetings.
