Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Cleveland Park

The food and service were fabulous. This restaurant is one of our favorite go to places when we are in DC. They never disappoint.

We enjoyed it so much!! I had the scallops - they were world class. Absolutely perfect. There were three good sized sea scallops and a delicious raita like sauce. I also had the rice and lentil pilaf. It was soul-warming comfort food. We shared the hummus - I was concerned the chili oil would make it too spicy, but it was flavorful, not spicy. Other items included a halloumi flatbread, bone marrow fritter (I don’t remember the actual name), and a stewed eggplant and tomato dish. The meal was started with wonderful fresh bread and an olive oil/balsamic dip. We shared the chocolate Turkish coffee cake for dessert. Do not leave without this cake!! We also had Turkish coffee. The food and the service was all flawless. We had more than we could eat - and the total was $100. Great value for a world class dining experience. We can’t wait to come back next time we are in DC.

A wonderful winter destination and superb service. The food is varied and always delicious. Enjoying it in front of the fire on a cold rainy afternoon is just about perfect!!

Great experience overall. There was a bit of a wait at the front while the hostess checked some coats. A party who came after us tried to cut the line but the gentleman who came took care of us right away since we had reservations & someone else took the walk in group. Service & food was excellent. The igloo experience was the best decision since it was intimate with a great view & we played our own music. Staff was attentive even if we weren’t inside. Loved the decor & every minute there!

I made a very last minute reservation on a Friday night on my way from another event. The kitchen closed within an hour of us coming but they were very gracious about making sure we had time to look at everything, reminded us about last calls for food, and were really accommodating for a last minute party.
