From Tom Sietsema, The Washington Post, Nov. 25, 2007 (two stars):"At Ray's the Classics, you'll want to stick with the dishes that help create human traffic jams outside Ray's the Steaks. Crab bisque is a perfect union of cream, abundant fresh crab and sherry. Diver scallops are lavished with sauteed garlic and charred onion. As for the steaks, every one of the cuts of corn-fed beef I've tried has something to recommend it. The New York strip shows nice age, thickness and a bit of fat, while the filet mignon reveals expected tenderness but surprising personality compared with much of the competition."
Full bar. Serving dinner daily. No. 54 on The Washingtonian's 100 Very Best Restaurants of 2009. "This spin-off of Ray's the Steaks in Arlington is bigger, fancier, and more comfortable."—The Washingtonian

Restaurants in the nation's capital have been hosting the power elite for a couple of centuries, and boardinghouse-turned-saloon Old Ebbitt Grill has served most of them since the days of President Ulysses S. Grant.
