Need Thanksgiving advice
We (family of 4--2 mature teens) are planning to spend Thanksgiving weekend in DC, and are looking for a festive place to enjoy the meal itself. I'm thinking a buffet is going to make everyone happiest; any recommendations? I'm thinking a nice hotel may be the best option; we enjoyed Thanksgiving at the (former) ANA hotel years ago, and more recently at The Plaza in NYC.
(also, a quick thanks for the advice I got lurking last month--DH & I had wonderful meals at Central, Rest. Eve, Atlantico, & Zaytinya, thanks to recs I read here.)
TIA

I just saw the menu for Equinox and it looks great. It's not a buffet. But they will be doing an oyster roast before dinner and then there is a sit down meal. You get a number of choices so you are not just stuck with the typical turkey and stuffing if that's not your thing.
Here is the menu: http://www.equinoxrestaurant.com/menu...
It's $55/person, which seems quite reasonable. I've never been to Equinox for Thanksgiving (I go home every year to Boston...big deal holiday for us!) but I think it's a great restaurant and I'm sure Chef Gray will make your family feel right at home.

re: Elyssa
I've done Tabard and liked it, also Oval Room was very nice on Thanksgiving. But this Equinox menu looks delicious! If I were going to be in DC for the holiday, Equinox is where I would go. Afterward, you could walk around Lafayette Park or over to the Ellipse to work off the meal.

I was thinking of recommending Tabard Inn, and I see there's a post from a couple years ago: http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/663190

Here's a Washington Post review from 2009 http://www.washingtonpost.com/gog/bar... (and see one very negative and one very positive reader review.-----
