It was a wonderful experience. The food was excellent and the service was wonderful. Thank you for a superb experience.
The breakfast food was excellent, with a wide variety of breakfast items. The chef at the Omelet station did an excellent job of preparing the omelets and other foods for our group.
We elected to go with the buffet, which was delicious. The breakfast buffet was worth it for the price and the service was very efficient and nice. The array of foods and condiments were bountiful. There was everything from cereal, oatmeal, eggs, sausage, bacon, potatoes, toast, cheese, cold cuts, fruit, and more. I will defiantly be back!
The service was poor, the waitress could care less that we there, basically ignored us. Could not be found for water or the check. The hotel and restaurant are in need of updating very worn out
Went for breakfast to use hotel credit. Decided to get the buffet as a better deal. The omelet was good bc it was made fresh. Scrambled eggs and bacon were good but potatoes were not good and the biscuits for the biscuits with gravy were hard. There were no pancakes so we had to order those a la cart. Coffee was meh. Expected better quality for a JW.
Worn out decor, unremarkable food and indifferent service. The only thing they seem to want to maximize is price.
The hostess said they don't take reservations on weekends even though I made one on OpenTable...so, we had to wait about 30 minutes. Disappointing...but the breakfast was decent.
No one waited on us or offered us waters after 15 minutes of waiting, so we left. Terrible!
Great atmosphere for breakfast and the food from the good. Will visit again tomorrow for breakfast
Enjoyed the morning buffet breakfast. Standard options but a nice variety of choices. Server was delightful.

I had a good time overall. The food was worth it, and the staff was so kind. Unfortunately, I had a not-so-nice encounter with a customer who was staying at the hotel. She ordered food from her chair and shouted at the lady doing omelets. I found this to be extremely rude. The woman who ran the Omelette station handled the incident with care, but I felt the encounter should have been addressed on a higher level. It does not matter what or how much money you may have; you should not yell at anyone to fix you an omelet from across the station while other customers have waited in line.
I ate here before going to the theater, so I did not want to eat heavily. The restaurant is very convenient to the National Theater on the same block, but only for matinees since they only serve breakfast and lunch. I had the potato leek soup and an upgraded grilled cheese sandwich with bacon, and both were excellent. I only ate half of the sandwich-not that I didn't want to eat the other half, but the sandwich was large, and I knew I would be sitting for a couple of hours. I would definitely eat here again.
My wife and I got free continental breakfast due to our Marriott premium status. My kids ordered off the menu (full price) but also finished my wife’s leftover cereal. They charged us separately $15 for kids buffett because instead of trashing my wife’s free cereal, the kids finished it! Manager Beyah was like free continental breakfast is only for adults so we have to charge if kids eat any portion of it.. this is after kids had their own paid breakfast and wasn’t like they were only eating our free breakfast! Just such pathetic losers..needless to say .. we never went back even though we had free breakfast..

We had there breakfast brunch buffet. Food was good, but some of it was cold. There was a good variety of items to choice from. It was a quick and easy option.
This is a great breakfast/brunch place. Was in Washington DC for a few days doing the tourist thing and this is one of the only breakfast places in the Marriott we were staying at. Being honest, I didn't have high expectations when I made my reservation. Wow, we're we pleasantly surprised! 1st morning I went with a standard eggs, bacon, hashbrowns and toast breakfast. Ordered my eggs over easy and they were cooked perfectly! The bacon was crispy, potatoes had great flavor and were also cooked just right. They bring the toast dry, with a tin of butter and 4 different jams/jellies to choose from. Other than having outstanding food, the service was excellent as well. Entire staff was friendly and courteous. My wife and I enjoyed our experience so much, we ate there every morning we stayed at the Marriott. On the following day I ordered corned beef hash and eggs and it was indeed homemade style, not the canned version that reminds you of dog food. Prices were very reasonable and they also offer a breakfast buffet.
