Anonymous
Hello..do you have any recommendations on where I can host a 25 person family dinner party to celebrate a First holy Communion in May? ideally cocktails and music at 7pm followed by dinner. We have 6 guests over age 70, 8 other adults, a few teenagers and 4 seven year olds. I would like to have some sense of elegance for the older crowd who are travelling in for this event, but would like some sense of fun for the seven year olds, one of whom of course is the whole reason we are getting together! I am so stumped....I looked at Capitol grille in Tysons which is pricey but lovely, but I wonder how dreadful it will be for the younger kids....thanks in advance for any suggestions!!

What about Clyde's in Tysons? It's gorgeous but a little more lively, I think, and I have heard they are great at hosting groups.

What about Maggianos party room?

Recently had a work party at Seasons 52 which was really nice. The little dessert glasses at the end would be much-loved by the kids. However, I think any sit-down dinner type place is going to be kinda boring for the kids unless you put together an entertainment area/craft table.

Just FYI, we just did a Christening party there. The food was good but the service left a lot to be desired. For example, We pre- ordered the meal but were seated for almost 45 min before the appetizers arrived. The waiter would disappear for long periods of time without checking in on us. Guests had a nice time but I was disappointed/expected more attentive service considering we spent a good deal of money. Next time I'd probably try Clyde's (which was our other option when we planned this party)

We have done parties of that size at Clydes and Woo Lae Oak in Vienna. Both worked really well.
