The Occidental is a top-notch restaurant in DC, offering a warm, cozy, and inviting atmosphere that sets the stage for a refined dining experience. The Whiskey Bar on the second floor is particularly charming, creating a cozy and sexy vibe that enhances the overall experience. The food is outstanding, featuring dishes like crab meat stuffed avocado, twin lobster tails that are tender and sweet, and NY strip steak cooked to perfection. The steak tartare is beautifully balanced, while the smoked pheasant under glass is a showstopper in both flavor and presentation. The service is exceptional, with a wonderful crew that is warm, attentive, and genuinely inviting, striking a rare balance of professionalism without a hint of stuffiness. The restaurant also offers an impressive selection of half bottles of wine, perfect for solo travelers and thoughtfully curated to complement the meal. Desserts like the pink champagne cake and bananas foster provide a sweet and delicate finish to a memorable meal. The Occidental is a must-visit destination for anyone looking for delicious food and classy dining in DC, delivering an experience that lingers in memory—refined, flavorful, and utterly satisfying.
