Elfegne Reviews
I had dinner at Elfegne on my last day at DC and it was an excellent way to conclude trip. The environment is welcoming and the staff was extremelly nice. More importantly, the food was amazing. Strongly recommend!
We ordered the Sambosa and Lega Tibs Lamb with collard greens and cabbage. Sambosa was good. Lamb tibs was very flavorful, but they gave us two lentil sides instead of cabbage and collard greens. We informed our server when we realized and they immediately brought the right sides. Other than that it was a wonderful meal.
The environment was welcoming and I like the aesthetics of the place. The staff were kind and made recommendations. The food was delicious and worth the price. I would definitely come back to this restaurant again.
