    One of the best restaurants I've been to in a long time. The food was amazing from start to finish. We loved the grape leaves, rice cakes, tuna, quail, and cabbage. The large plate was terrific with the pork meatballs and broth the star of the show. Our waitress along with the rest of the kitchen staff was also the best. I definitely recommend this restaurant in DC.

    An awesome experience! Highly recommend and will be back. Made a reservation for lunch for a party of 6. We were seated within 5 minutes of arrival. We were seated in a back corner and it was very hot when we sat down. The management adjusted the temperature when we informed them. Three of us got the Chef’s Tasting Menu and I added the Wine Pairing for an extra $45. The others ordered off the lunch menu. We enjoyed everything and plenty of food with the Tasting Menu. Highly recommend!
