Best Restaurants for Quiet Conversation in Lanham

Amazing dining experience, but be prepared to need to hit Taco Bell on your way home. Service was fantastic and the food was amazing, but good lord my toddler eats more. We both left hungry.

We had our Thanksgiving meal at Kingbird at the Watergate Hotel. The food was outstanding with some interesting, and very tasty, additions to the traditional holiday menu. The service as always attenttive and we never felt rushed. This was the best Thanksgiving meal in my memory! Nancy Hicks

We were looking for something close to our hotel, what a great find. I had the lamb chops; they were perfectly cooked and seasoned. My husband had the bolognese with fettuccine. For dessert I had Chocolate salame w/ cookie crumbs, pistachio, hazelnut, served w/ a side of gelato macchiato My husband had the Apple & cinnamon, shortbread tart, hazelnut gelato, dark chocolate, Italian meringue Both were delicious. Portions are generous, presentations were lovely and service was great.

It's been many years since I've been to the Tabard Inn, so long ago that I was living in Dupont on Riggs Place. It was low key and funky and much smaller. The present version is very different but equally enjoyable. Larger, still good food, but more space and fewer distractions. A great place to meet for breakfast and escape from the bustling of one of Washington's friendliest circles.

Three family members each enjoyed our entrees and split a salad and a dessert. We liked sitting in the comfortable booth and the service was very good. I especially liked the low noise level in the restaurant. All in all I’d recommend it for a very good meal in Georgetown DC.
