We had a celebratory anniversary dinner at the Tabard - which was outstanding in every way. First, we were seated promptly and in the quiet corner we had requested. Secondly, the place simply drips with a warm and comforting atmosphere. Thirdly, our server was friendly and super attentive. Fourth, the manager came over twice to make sure all was OK. Fifth, to help us celebrate bubbly and super delicious limoncello arrived on the house. Sixth, our food was simply delicious - frisee salad, hangar steak, rockfish, a side of carrots, bread with mushroom butter, and earl grey creme brulee - all super tasty and beautifully plated and served. This was not inexpensive but was a superb value for the money. We were visiting Washington - if we lived here we'd be regulars!
