Well the Old Ebbits has changed over the years, and it is now owned by the Clyde's group, so its actually not as good as it use to be when it was an independent - but that said, the food is good, reasonable and its got a lot of atmosphere - although I personally don't like the lobby atrium area, it definitely looses something from the main restaurant - thats where they tend to put larger groups since most of the tables inside don't accommodate more than 6 or 8, but if the group doesn't go there Denise, and you and Alan do by yourselves - make a reservation and ask for the main dining room. Anyway, thats a good possibility though, and is not far from your hotel actually, if I remember right. I'll do some research and see if I can come up with some ideas.
