The place is really wonderful: great decoration great ambiance. Service is really impeccable, with a team of young energetic waiters available to make your experience a really nice one. Food was good and generous! Ambiance is the best part of it. At end of dinner, the place turns into a music lounge!

We loved the food - all the dishes were delicious and authentic. The drinks were great - we had a pisco sour and a passionfruit drink. Amazing date night spot! The ambience is cozy and lively. We didn't know there was a sister Palestinian restaurant in the same location, so we'll definitely be coming back for that.

Nice and energetic place, good food but not outstanding. For ten minutes or so they failed to take care of us, then service became a little smoother. Quite pricey for what it is.

We enjoyed the sampler! Very fresh and yummy. Unfortantly, we could not try the poopular palestian dishes since they ran out so try to avoid coming towards end of the night!

I was really excited to eat at Nabiha and had heard such great things but it sadly did not live up to the hype. My friends and I were eaten by mosquitoes. The food had little flavor and there were no salt shakers to be found though they were desperately needed. Part of our order was forgotten for a while and when it came, was incorrect. They provided the vegetarian option rather than the version with meat as we had ordered. While the restaurant is lovely and I fully support their mission, I think I'll stick to stopping by their coffee shop.

Love this place! The Peruvian kitchen was closed, so we ate from the Palestinian menu, which was delicious.

Way too loud. We were seated in front of the DJ and halfway through our meal, without any warning, a set started and blasted us deaf. Good food tho!

In addition to delicious Peruvian food and a great ambiance they have added a Palestinian menu. We tried a few items , amazing flavors!

We came here for my husband's birthday. It was nice a bit too loud but we were sitting next to the speaker so we ask to change seats and had a much more pleasant experience. Our server was really nice and we had a great time.

Great ambience and service. The rice was delicious, the lomo saltando was flavorful but the meat was not very tender. We would come back and have more lychee martinis. Beautifully decorated!!

First time. Enjoyed the ambiance and food. Mix of Palestinian and Latin foods. Great options. Great vibe. We will go again.

I had the babaghanoush, kafta bel tahini, a glass of wine, knafeh, and arabic coffee. It was one of the best meals I've had in a long time. And an honor to partake in it. A must do in DC. šŸ‡µšŸ‡ø

I came to this restaurant because of its Michelin reviews. The ceviche I had was really good and the salad was good, but neither we're ā€œwrite homeā€ fabulous. Service was mediocre—I had to find the waiter to get my check. It may have been an excellent restaurant in the past, but that wasn't my experience.

I honestly have a mixed review but 3 star rating is for dinner and would have been higher if we had gone to hang out at the bar for drinks.
What we liked: very cool vibe with great design inside. It’s a fun space to be in. The menu drinks and appetizers are also very good- loved the ceviche and hummus!
What we didn’t like: the service was really bad. They had a lot of staff mulling around but we weren’t sure what they were doing because our server was really struggling. The entrees were also mostly just ok. We had a party of 8 and about half of us enjoyed our meals. Finally, the music was way too loud. It was good for a bar scene but extremely loud for dinner.
