Best Restaurants with Good Vegetarian Options in Southwest Waterfront

My wife and I loved our visit to Zaytinya in DC! If you’re in downtown, you’ve got to check it out. They specialize in Greek, Lebanese, and Turkish food, and everything is meant to be shared, which makes it even more fun. The flavors were amazing, and the vibe was relaxed but still classy. Definitely try their mezze dishes—they’re so good!

The food is excellent and the ambience is perfect. If I had to point one thing it would be that the service is really fast which might sound counter intuitive since you want the food to come soon - what I mean is that with a dining experience you want to spend a bit more time and our dinner for 2 was over in 1 hour and so I felt our time at the restaurant ended soon. There is no criticism for the staff they were excellent

Great food…OUTSTANDING service !!! Highly recommend

The beet salad was a standout -- it's huge (and delicious). The smoked salmon fettucine alfredo came with a generous portion of salmon. The branzino was cooked perfectly. We chose a bottle of Alsatian riesling that was delicious and reasonably priced. We ordered the tiramisu to go -- it was a lovely way to finish the evening. We'll definitely be back.

Outstanding service, great food at great prices. All of their pasta dishes are fantastic and their tiramisu is the best in DC.
