The ambiance. I find it even more important than excellent service because without ambiance the experience is not pleasurable which I believe is the main reason for dining out in the first place. For fine dining I find it much better to go to the best hotels or restaurants even although you can only do it a few times a year. For those who eat out several times a week I'm sure they have favourite foods that they order frequently regardless of the City or Country they happen to be in i.e it's lunchtime - have a Caesar or it's suppertime - have a steak & baked potato.

An incredible view (either inside or out)! H2o, for example, on Maine Avenue, sits looking over the Potomac river. I once had biscuits and clotted cream in Sydney Australia in the top floor of a casno overlooking the entire city and the beautiful Opera house. Coppi's, an organic Italian restaurant in NW DC has a terrific collection of old old bicyclist pictures on the walls. I love having something to look at when I eat, and when I think back to restaurants, it's the visual aspects I think of.

I don't know if this is my favorite, but one of the key ways I judge a restaurant's service (which is very important to me) is how attentive they are about filling my water glass without me asking. I drink about a gallon of water a day, so it matters, and I think the hallmark of restaurant with really good service is when someone unobtrusively fills the water glasses without having to be asked, on a consistent basis and not after they've been empty for 15 minutes.

The atmosphere, the service, the presentation of the food, and the response time of the servers.

Being able to talk to friends and family or just being able to read a good book in peace.
