The Occidental Washington Reviews
Every aspect of the dinner was superb.
Terrific hostess; excellent service for entire meal; and delicious food and drinks. The atmosphere is absolutely enchanting. My favorite "new" restaurant in DC in many years. Can't wait to go back for another full length dinner or mo
Nice experience for an anniversary dinner, the food was
Nice experience for an anniversary dinner, the food was great, the booth we were seated at was not super comfortable, and in hindsight, I wish I had asked for a table. The service staff was super professional and did an outstanding job. The steak I h
This is hands down my favorite restaurant that I've ever
This is hands down my favorite restaurant that I've ever been to. To start, the ambiance is incredible, you can't go wrong with sitting anywhere. Just a gorgeous restaurant overall. The service is impeccable. They are on top of everything a
Adam at the upstairs whiskey bar was amazing.
He guided me through a fantastic meal, and he was extremely attentive to everyone at the bar. The food was delicious, and so was the wine. The feel of the upstairs bar was chic and classy. Oh, also, the hostess gave me a great lay of the restaurant w

I was excited about coming here and it was good but i didn't love as much as i thought. The atmosphere was cool, very gentleman's club, bur the service was slow. The food was good and the biscuits were the best thing.

We had an extraordinary dining experience that I can't recommend enough. The service was truly exceptional, making me feel welcomed and pampered from start to finish. The dishes were nothing short of delicious, starting with the southern biscuit
My cousin and I had the best experience at the Occidental.
We went there for a birthday brunch to celebrate my birthday and the waiter Julien made me feel so happy and he was very patient. They also brought us cute cupcakes to celebrate my birthday and complementary champagne. When I visit DC again, I'l
Outstanding Brunch Experience
Dined here for brunch because of the numerous offerings. The service was friendly, professional and on point. The food left us pleased and made us feel like we chose the right place. We would return and do not hesitate in recommending.

Oh my! That is my feelings for The Occidental in the best way!!!! The restaurant is absolutely gorgeous! Love the decor and the vibe! Now the food...absolutely sublime! Do not sleep on the buttermilk biscuits! It's a must! I had no idea biscuit
Wow! This place is extremely discriminatory.
I have visited on several occasions but today, I decided to sit at the bar. I asked for my tab and was given a bill but later the charged was changed. The bartender said, My Manager told me to changed it. I also heard the same bartender giving 2 whi
Pretty great food it was a friends recommendation who is
Pretty great food it was a friends recommendation who is local. Definitely worth a try but a bit pricey. Probably good for a date night.
Amazing
Everything was excellent from beginning to end. We started with scallops and tomatoes with buratta. Both terrific. Dover soul was prepared brilliantly and is enough to share. We also loved the beef stroganoff. Finally a huge shout out to our server C

Five of us came here for dinner after an event on a week night. A perfect five star evening! Our server, Carolin, was so efficient and professional. I started with the Caesar salad which was delicious. My friend had the crab stuffed avocado. I tast

We weren't sure what to expect for date night, but we dressed up a little and indulged. What an awesome surprise of a meal! Your standard American grill fare, with more attention to detail. The ambiance and staff were highly above average for Wa

Went with a group for brunch! Started inside and moved outside for drinks and dessert! Everything was delicious and the service was very professional.
A classic dinner spot
Decadent decor and fine dining. We came as a large group and found the service to be prompt and attentive. The sea bass entree was delicious.
I want to be a regular here!
A great evening - gorgeous place, great vibe (neighboring tables’ joy spilled over into conversations with us), delicious menu, exceptional service. The famous biscuits are as good as everyone says. Great cocktails - especially loved the Occidenta
Ask for Rohit!
If you’re going to do “heritage dining” in America, do it right. No one wants to spend fifty dollars on prime rib in a room that smells like mothballs. The Occidental in D.C.? It doesn’t just get it right—it elevates it. From the moment I
The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
The Good: The crabcakes were the best I have ever had. The Pigs in a Blanket were good. Tuna Tartar was good. The Bad: The service was erratic. We had 3 different waiters who never knew what we had requested from the other waiters...and one you
Make a reservation, you’ll be glad you did
Beautiful patio! We enjoyed our bon voyage Sunday brunch very much. We were unsure of our plans and spotted their gorgeous patio and it did not disappoint.
Best overall dining experience I’ve had in DC in quite awhile.
Wow….just wow…. This is a throwback to the golden era of restaurants. Gilded elevator, wooden stairs and handrails, white tablecloths and excellent service. From a Pimm’s Cup cocktail to ‘Pheasant under Glass’ for dinner..there are so ma
Lovely restaurant!
We had a very nice experience here. It was jammed on a Sunday evening. When we went up to the third floor, they initially wanted to see us right next to a table of six. I mean, a foot away in the same banquette!! We asked for another table. Besides t
Connect with users posting reservations for The Occidental Washington
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with The Occidental Washington. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to The Occidental Washington at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the The Occidental Washington page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* DistinguishedTree58, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* DistinguishedTree58 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to DistinguishedTree58 for any questions Peter may have as DistinguishedTree58 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* DistinguishedTree58 now uses their connections at The Occidental Washington to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If DistinguishedTree58 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, DistinguishedTree58 receives the $200 reward which is credited to DistinguishedTree58's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at The Occidental Washington!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
