The President's Favorite Right Next to the White House

💰 While DC is full of restaurants claiming to be "president-approved," this one truly lives up to the hype. Located right next to the White House, it's a go-to spot for presidents and politicians. The food is delicious, and the portions are generous. It's perfect for a dinner after touring the White House! 🏠 🦪 I booked a table a week in advance, and the only available time was 4:30 p.m., which turned out to be perfect for catching the happy hour. I ordered a half-dozen oysters for just $16, but my mom thought they were pretty average—small and not very fresh. 🦪 🦑 **Fried Calamari**: A must-order appetizer for me every time. The portion is large, and the calamari is tender and well-fried. The fried pickles and cherry peppers add a nice tangy and spicy kick. 🦑 rimp Cream Pasta: This dish hit the spot for me. The cream sauce is rich but not heavy, and the shrimp are large, plump, and perfectly chewy. The pasta has a nice al dente texture. 🍝 🦀 **Crab Cake**: This was the most crab-forward crab cake I've ever had. It's filled with large chunks of real crab meat, even with some crushed crab shells. It's incredibly fresh and flavorful. The accompanying fries are also top-notch, with perfect crispiness. 🦀 🥩 My mom had been craving the filet mignon, and she ordered it medium-rare. It was perfectly pink on the inside, with a crispy exterior and a tender interior. The roasted cauliflower on the side was a great addition, with a nice charred flavor, and the intricately carved potato was like a piece of art. 🍖 Overall, this is a very classic, retro-American restaurant. The service is excellent, and it fits perfectly into a classic itinerary of visiting the White House with family and friends. 🤔 However, be sure to make a reservation well in advance, as the wait times during peak hours can be quite long. 📍 Old Ebbitt Grill 675 15th St NW, Washington, DC 20005 #GlobalFoodieChallenge #AmericasPartyCorner #WashingtonDC #WhiteHouseVisit #WhiteHouseDining #DCFoodie #DMVCuisine #RepeatRestaurant #LifeInAmerica #DMVLife
