   The food here is always wonderful - a mix of mezze that just can't be beat. For this night's meal, we opted for the prix fixe tasting menu - delicious and almost too much food. Service was wonderful (one of my party doesn't eat red meat, so our waitress gladly substituted scallops for one of the steak dishes included in the tasting menu). My only complaints - it is always loud, making it tough for dinner conversations, and we were seated upstairs, where it was so warm my party of four all wanted to remove our sweaters.

   My favorite restaurant in DC! Took friends visiting from out of town and they loved it! Something for everyone, vegetarians, fish and meat eaters all happy.

   Exceptional experience despite having the front of their restaurant cutoff by Inauguration events. That shows planning, resilience and dedication. Top class experience from top to bottom. Highly recommend

   Everything was fantastic. I hadn’t been here in 11 or 12 years but it was just as wonderful an experience as it was back then. Endless bread, attentive waiters, great selection of drinks, what more could one ask for?

    We had a dinner reservation prior to attending a game at Capone Arena. The food was delicious and we love the fresh pita. The waiter was very good. Attentive, knew the menu and drink lists. Good recommendations. The only complaint was near the end of our meal. We were one hour into our meal and we were asked by 4 different clean up team members if they could clear the table. Within a 10 minute span! We were still enjoying our dinner. Felt like they were trying to turn tables as game time was coming up.
