Old Ebbitt Grill is an iconic tavern in downtown Washington that has been serving award-winning cuisine for more than 160 years. Established in 1856 and just steps from The White House and the city’s famous museums, the restaurant has always been a favorite haunt of celebrities, theater-goers, journalists, and political insiders, as well as Presidents Grant, Cleveland, Harding and Theodore Roosevelt. Set in a beautiful building with a Beaux-Arts façade, brass and beveled glass windows, cozy mahogany, and velvet booths and marble bars, the Victorian-style eatery serves upscale American saloon food with an emphasis on fresh and seasonal ingredients and accompanied by fine wines, artisan beers, and signature spirits. Four full service bars offer Clyde's Classic Cocktails, and an impressive selection of wines by the glass, all of which is served by friendly, professional wait staff in a convivial, relaxed atmosphere.
