Staff was great, french pasta is handmade and was absolutely delicious on both our plates, Short Rib Lasagna & Pappardelle. Crispy Brussel Sprouts were definitely crispy and delicious with pickled onions. The cocktails were great. We needed a good dinner our first night in town and Opaline delivered. Thank you.

We have never been to the Ritz Carlton in DC so decided to eat at the Quadrant after a show we saw at the hotel. The ambiance was lovely and the service was impeccable. The food was delicious. It was a little pricey but we were not shocked as after all it is in the Ritz Carlton in Washington DC. Overall a great place to eat.

The Easter brunch buffet at The Willard was phenomenal. There were so many stations offering many food options from breakfast to meats to salads, breads, cold seafood bar, sushi, dessert, soup, and an open bar. There was also a petting zoo in a separate room for guests to enjoy that consisted of goats, bunnies, chicks, and turtles. Each dining area had a harpist and they were very good. So good, we tipped the one in our dining room. Valet parking was and is available as well as self-parking with validation. Service was impeccable and everyone was very pleasant and nice. James and Valerie took care of our table in the back corner.
