Best Latin American Spanish Restaurants in Penn Quarter

Our experience at The Saga was out of this world; we had the Tapas Experience; the food was great and the staff was even better; i highly recommend this terrific restaurant

We were excited to finally try this place out, as it’s been on our list for a while. The staff was welcoming, and the restaurant was beautiful and inviting. We went there with our kids, and it took me a minute, but there was a giant mural of a naked woman on the wall, which I found odd for a restaurant. The service was a bit slow. There was only one or two other tables at the time. I'm not sure if they are in the middle of training, but it just felt a bit off. Everyone was kind, but overall, the service was a little lacking. The menu we saw posted here was not the menu we were given, so I would suggest you look at their site for a current menu. We found the menu to be very limited, especially if dining with kids. The food was good, and portions were good, but I just wish there were more options to choose from. The menu had a backside offering food from their sister restaurant which offers Palestinian food which also was odd to me as we went there for the great Peruvian food I had heard about. All in all food was good but we would likely not return.

The food was delicious - all the dishes, and good servings. Even a simple Caesar salad was exciting with a somewhat spicy twist to the dressing. Dessert was remarkable. Drinks were very good. The servers and everyone who worked there were so pleasant and helpful. It's a delightful find, and parking and access is very easy.

Food is delicious. Service is very good! The ambiance is very nice. Very good happy hour. Super recommend

This was an expected treat. Emely greeted me with such warmth and kindness ….it made me feel like I’d been a customer for years. The entire staff was superb. Everyone was personable, attentive, and courteous. I had a delicious Tuna tartare appetizer, which consisted of a series of well-balanced flavors. Nothing overpowering the tuna (granted, I asked for the sauce on the side) and a Hendrick’s gin tonic. This is a must go-to in NoMa!
