The best service I have ever experienced state-side. A fabulous meal with incredible attention paid to every detail. A gorgeous room to boot and a stunning display of kitchen and wine. One of the more expensive meals i've had in the US, but it was a memorable night.

Loved everything about it. The Chef is very creative and the service was impeccable. This place must be experienced while you are in DC area.

It took me a while to make it over to CityZen because I generally avoid hotel restaurants. What a mistake! CityZen is amazing in every way. Service was wonderful, cocktails were the best I've had and the food was wonderfully prepared. I especially loved the bread boxes. CityZen is a special place. I can't wait to go back again.

Wow! This is it! The expertise of the kitchen extends to the ability to substitute ingredients or entire courses of a six-course tasting menu along with matching wines without the slightest hesitation or hint of regret from servers and staff. Outstanding preparation and presentation of unusual and daring recipes. The use of unusual, interesting plate, stemware and flatware--as was used in California's Post Ranch Inn--would make this perfect!

Couldn't be better. Worth the price.
