“When indecisive, go for the chefs table which includes all of the apps but also an extra tasting per course. Aside from the food which was near perfect, the ambiance is very unique outside dining in a semi enclosed courtyard, railyard bar, and dining in a lodge-like room with fireplace. Some of my favorite dishes were the veggies, surprising because I'm more of a meat eater. Cocktails were excellent but do ask the bartender since not all liquor is documented. Wine list is extensive“

“Me and my husband came to the bar for a la carte dining, had an amazing time with a very personalized beverage pairing (s/o to Chris our bartender!) We'll DEFINITELY be back to do the entire tasting menu. Lovely atmosphere, not stuffy, great music, GOOD LIGHTING (hard to come by in DC) and overall stellar food. Come here for your next date night or special occasion dinner, you won't regret it!“

“Coming from Arabic Family and growing partially in an Arab country I am very critical when it comes to Arabic food. I must say Ilili didn’t disappoint ! The food is actually ESPECTACULAR! I traveled to my childhood memories with every bite. The hummus with pine nuts and mushrooms is delicious, and the shawarma duck and fried kibbeh so good. Please do yourself a favor and close with a KNAFE“

“I went to Imperfecto for a work event and was very impressed with the beautiful decor and ambiance. The service was incredible, and the food followed suit. The truffle pasta was a highlight. I also had the eclair for dessert which was also delicious!“

“This review was a long time coming. I was dying to try out Agora DC after my friend treated me to the Tyson's location for my birthday. Agora Tyson's was some of the best food that I've had in a while, so expectations were high for their DC location. I'm pleased to report, the food quality is identical! That means, A+ all the way around. Please try the chicken, giant prawns, jumbo scallops, octopus and lamb chops.. You'll thank me later!! Both locations have their own charm, but I'm leaning towards the DC version just a hair more because of the the indoor/outdoor seating option. Although I visited when it was cold out, the patio was still booming with the mega heat lamps. It was warm enough to sweat a little...LOL! I've been hooked on Tapas style restaurants since trying out Jaleo many moons ago. Service was great and I've put Agora on my top 5 DC restaurants list.. period!!!“

“This is a gem of a spot in Cleveland Park! I discovered it one day and now I’m a regular and have started bringing my friends. Who all have said they wanna come back. The restaurant is small, but intimate and the food is amazing. The Scallops are a must try. Every time I’ve gone and sat at the bar and have always had an amazing experience. Kyle & Victor are so knowledgeable on their wines and just make the experience 10x better. The playful pairings on the menu are also another highlight and a lot of fun. Definitely a spot worth checking out!“

“We had the best time at KooKoo DC last night. They accommodated a table of 14 for my spouse's birthday and never let us feel like an imposition. The food was so fresh, authentic, and reasonably priced - I did a double take when we got the bill. I even felt like we went all-out with apps, drinks, and desserts! The owner was also so kind - we just felt so cared for the whole time and can't wait to visit again.“

“Hands down one of the best brunch meals I've ever had. I got the batata with toum and harissa, fried halloumi with apple compote and pistachio, and scrambled egg sandwich with grilled soujak. Ali was very attentive, noticed anytime I ran out of water or even napkins. Friendly and accommodating staff, bold ambience, and mouthwatering courses!“

“Cute spot located very close to union station. Came in for dinner on a week night and the place was decently busy. The server was kind and attentive. For food, I had the lamb shawarma which was very tasty and actually the perfect amount of food, although the pita bread that came with was pretty dry. My friend got the lamb sliders which also looked pretty good!“

“Happy Hour at Barca on the waterfront on a Friday is amazing. The Hostess was great she took us straight to our table thru the crowd. Made sure we were seated in a good location by the bar. As soon as we sat down the waiter came with the menu and options. Our table was facing the water which gave us clear view of the Water taxis and boats. The lemon drop drink was strong the food was served hot. However due to the breeze and being by the water the temperature of your food changes quickly. The hummus is delicious highly recommend“

“Another delicious meal - I frequented the original location and I have visited the trendy and welcoming CR NoMA more than any other sit-down restaurant in DC. How is the Pastrami Poblano even better, each time I order? Perfectly runny egg, soft and toasted ciabatta, delicious crispy spiced fries. The cigars appetizer are not to be missed. Weather you choose the wines, beers, cocktails or mocktails, you are in for a good time. Thanks Oded and team for making our night out a great one!“

“The food was sooo fresh and delicious, down to the fresh made lemonade and mango juices we got. Such a home cooked meal feel, with tender halal meat, fresh baked naan, and crispy kibbeh. Service was amazing and the owner treated us like family. I can't wait to go back and try their kenafa and more dishes!“

“this is one of my favorite spots in DC. the food is always impeccably fresh, simple and elegant dishes, delicious cocktails, reasonably priced for the area, and a beautiful, welcoming ambiance inside. we went for the tasting menu on valentine's day (cheapest tasting menu in DC, but you DEFINITELY can't tell) and felt like we were celebrities with how impeccable the service was. truly gold star treatment. they described each dish, paced the courses perfectly, and cleaned the crumbs off our table between courses. i always recommend this to anyone in Adams Morgan. love going here for a happy hour as well. i recommend getting a mojito! (at a Turkish restaurant?? yes, strangely enough, they're delicious)“

“Hands down one of the best restaurants I have ever eaten at and probably the best in Washington D.C. Started with the sensational mushroom shish and the perfectly grilled octopus, followed by two remarkable entrees, Aleppo Smoked Chicken and the Cherry Lacquered Shortrib. Absolutely stunning combination of flavors. It’s a phenomenal restaurant in all ways. Excellent wine list and exceptional team.“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at this establishment and I must say, the manti here is absolutely delightful! The flavors were rich and authentic, and the texture of the dumplings was perfect. The portion size was generous, and the service was impeccable. I highly recommend trying the manti here for a truly satisfying culinary experience. Can't wait to come back for more!“
“Love this gourmet shop & market! The wine and cheese selection is excellent. Plus my 10yo loves & loves their olive blend and focaccia. Nido is our stop for a special evening together. Also, the owners are just lovely and know their product really well. 100% Recommended!!!“

“The food was really good - couldn’t be faulted! Service was excellent too.My only gripe was the amount of single use plastic items in the cafe. Everything from the plate to the cup to the cutlery was disposable. We need to do better by our planet.“

“Stopped by with two kiddos on a weeknight and the service was impeccable. Aside from having the usual parking issues - Connecticut Ave is sometimes difficult- we had no issues finding it. It's on a row with a lot of options but we (I) wanted hummus so here we were! The service and greeting were great? Our waiter was thorough and advised of the best items on the menu as well as allowed us to take out time ordering. We tried the pita bread with olive oil which was a little bland and required salt and pepper-but the pita itself was warm perfection. We also tried the artichoke hearts, which were amazing and the dressing was so good, the kids tried to eat it with a spoon! I typically don't eat after 7 and since it was much later, I ordered a salad with tabouleh and falafel, of which I finished one. The falafel was a little dry, which didn't make for a great reheating experience but on day one it was great! The kids both ordered the kids meal with falafel which is massive and comes with hummus and rice or fries. He let my picky water get a salad instead which worked nicely. There were a ton of leftovers and we are hearty eaters. I will just say the falafel and tabouleh salad doesn't reheat very well. The tabouleh is as expected, quite wet and if I'd had space to eat it on day one, it would have been a 5/5. As such, I'd give it a solid 4.3. It wilted almost completely in 12 hours even after separating the falafel. But we would go back, the menu is expansive, the service was very good, and the ambiance is perfect for a date night at any point! The high backed booths lend and aura of privacy and the high ceilings swallow conversation in a way that allows you to relax and really talk. Definitely a good restaurant design! If you like Lebanese/Mediterranean food, you won't be disappointed!“

“The food was excellent----2 -lamb plates and 1-shrimp plate. The lemon potatoes were different and delicious. The warm pita bread and humus was a great appetizer while we waited on our order. This was a great little place for lunch after a trip to College Park IKEA--very close. Only counters---no tables, but food is worth it.“

“I’ve been wanting to visit this restaurant since I moved to DC, and we finally went for brunch. LOVED the ambiance and that was the main star of the visit, service was on point, the food not so much.I got the Salmon Cavlax, my partner got French toast and our friend got the chicken sandwich, I’d say all of us were disappointed in what we got. See the pictures and you be the judge, underwhelming food for the price and for the places reputation with that being said we would give them a second chance for a different menu and see if the experience changes.“

“My wife and I were stuck in Washington, DC because of a weather related airplane cancellation. Since it was Christmas Day, our options for dinner were limited. We were very pleased to have chosen the Ottoman taverna. The food was phenomenal. The service was impeccable and I would recommend this to anybody looking for a dining experience in Washington, DC. While it is certainly not cheap, it is not terribly expensive either. The food was unbelievably delicious. Oddly, our Lyft driver who delivered us to the door happened to be Turkish and was telling us how great the place was as we arrived.“

“Food is pretty tasty and get a good amount of food for the price. Nothing is revolutionary but it's a good basic Greek place to stop by in the neighborhood. The guy who takes orders is pretty grouchy, but I think that's part of the schtick. I wish their salads were a little more salad and little less dip and meat with some lettuce but for $12 bucks it'll do.“

“Villa Yara is such a cute place to go for lunch or dinner. The food is Lebanese and very authentic tasting. The waiters are very friendly and the atmosphere is incredible. The food is crazy expensive though, which is the only downside. It was $72 for 2 skewers of shishtawook and 3 pieces of lamb shops.“

“We came to D.C. for a couple days from AZ and my son wanted Italian. I sent my Mom some options in many different areas and she chose this place, and I’ll admit when we were dropped off in this area, I wasn’t quite sure, but we decided to go in, and were warmly welcomed, and enjoyed an amazing meal! I got the Gnocchi with Meat Sauce, my Mom enjoyed Ravioli with cream sauce, and my son said his spaghetti with meat sauce was one of the best! We go out to eat A LOT, and am glad we gave this little place a try.“

“Nice bookstore slash restaurant Cafe. Plenty of space to work and eat or both. Strong wifi as well.The art decorations are amassing. It's almost like being in a gallery. Service is chill, mostly younger with a chill, friendly demeanor - I like it.I ordered the creole shrimp which was sad in terms of portion. It was $18 for a scoop of rice, several pieces of shrimp and vegetable tomato sauce. Want really good nor really bad just meh. I felt it was overpriced. Plus the shrimp could've been cooked more. But the presentation was beautiful.All in all it's a nice cafe. And I'd recommend coming here to read our but books, drink a coffee and work, but not the food. A bit overpriced for what you get.“

“While staying at The Darcy, I ventured one breakfast session here, out of curiosity. I went for their Waffle dish and it came with a lovely presentation. The blueberry compote was delicious, and I wish there was more. The waffle was crispy throughout and clearly, well made.Would I come here again, maybe not. The prices here are quite high, especially in comparison to the Johnny Rockets next door. This restaurant is great for dinner, either through a work meeting, or for a special occasion.“

“I was there for the opening day and it was wonderful. The staff are so friendly and had huge smiles on their faces. The line moved quickly and the food was delicious and made exactly to order. The soup was still piping hot when I got back to the office. So happy they finally opened a location in Union Station.“

“Grabbed a bowl for lunch and left full and satisfied with another half of the bowl still to eat. The portions they scoop into your bowl are quite generous and the chicken and steak shawarma were both tasty. I grabbed a chocolate chip cookie as well which was quite good. I must call out the staff as well. They were all pleasant and friendly even during the busy lunch hours.“

“I am a big fan of Busboys and Poets. Don't expect a high-end restaurant setting, but be amazed by the food and drinks.Their sandwiches are delicious, their Cubano is Top Notch! And the cajun pasta they have, with Chorizo, chicken and Shrimps, is absolutely amazing. The toasted bread they add to it, the perfectly cooked pasta and all the flavors are just delicious.The portions are always more than decent, I rarely go home without leftovers. After coming here, you feel satisfied and you got what you paid for, and more.The drinks are good, they have a nice happy hour and always good pours.Great spot for lunch or dinner.“

“Mideterranean cusine, pure and simple. You step in the restaurant and the first thing that hits you is the warm smell of a home cooked meal. We ordered the appetizers platter, which is good for two people. Everything tasted like it should be. The beef shawarma, the salmon salad, and the falafel platter all tasted good.As for the atmosphere, it's clean, chic and welcoming. The prices are very reasonable, not as crazy as Lebanese Taverna or other high-end Mediterranean spots. Service was excellent and the food came out quickly.I am definitely coming back for other other specialties and the amazing dining atmosphere. 5 star rating it is.“

“This was a fantastic Italian restaurant. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable, the food was amazing, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting.I came here on a date. The staff gave us a great table. We could really take in the atmosphere and it wasn't loud where they put us, so we could easily have a conversation.I had the daily specials. All of them. I stuffed myself to capacity. It was great. The wine pairing was recommended by the waiter and it was a perfect compliment to the meal. My date was a vegetarian and the staff happily worked with her to ensure her order fit her dietary restrictions. I will definitely be coming back.“

“This food was delicious. I was so surprised at how fast my order was prepped and how fresh everything was. The staff were all very kind given that it was my first time and I was a little clumsy figuring out what I wanted and if I was going for a bowl or pita. But the falafel pita was so good that I considered visiting twice in one day.“

“Mezeh is one of my favorite places to eat out. I go to Mezeh at least once a week. Authentic and healthy choices to choose from the menu. The staff is very polite and courteous and makes you feel appreciated. I wish more food franchise were like this Mezeh at Richie Station. Hopefully more people can come and experience the great taste of food and services.“
