    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.
