    Wait staff was lovely. Food was quite good. I would not give it 5/5 stars but there was nothing wrong with it either.

    I have several food allergies and I asked for them not to be on my food and they were. I sent it back and when it came back to me it still had those foods on it. Very disappointing.

    Despite the pictures online, the space leaves a lot to be desired and the service is worse. From bright overhead lights to extremely slow drink orders to waiters that said, “I have no idea what tastes good. It’s my first day being a server.”, the experience was extremely disappointing. Bottom line: Awful service with mediocre food.

    Everything from Jorge’s famous Mexican mule to the spring rolls, the chicken skewers, the salad, the octopus and oh my god the short rib were absolutely incredible. The staff and kitchen were amazing. We sat at the bar and Jorge took amazing care of us. Will definitely eat here every time we are in town! Superb! Thank you!

    Service was outsourcing. We sat at the bar and the bartender /sever was attentive and knowledgeable. Atmosphere is cool. Food was a let down. Pirogies wee mushy. Tuna bowl was unimpressive and the tuna was so dry. Had a tabouleh that was quite good. A bit of a mixed bag

    Went for Valentine’s Day dinner with my girlfriend. It was a great time. The ambiance and food were delicious. My only complaint was that it took about 10 minutes after we were seated to be approached with water and then another waiting for the dishes took extremely long as well. We had the prefixe 3 course menu. So after we got our drinks, we waited 10 minutes for the starter, then waited around 20 minutes for the entree, and then after finishing the entree, we waited another 15 minutes for the dessert. Waiter didn’t approach as well to fill up waters or ask how we were doing. Most likely understaffed. However, the food was great and the portion size amazing as well as the vibes.

    The service, ambiance and selections were great. I was amazed by the Kuku Paka - the Kenyan chicken and rice-best chicken & rice dish I've ever had anywhere. Dessert of mango mousse cake was just ok but everything else made up for it.

    More people need to discover this place! Just a stone’s throw from DuPont Circle in the Ven hotel. Wide variety of dishes all inspired be Embassy row chefs, so global cuisine, we’ll seasoned, we’ll presented, something for every taste.

    My husband and I went here for our first anniversary. We were a bit confused at first because google maps said the restaurant was closed but we had a reservation so we decided to go anyways. The place was empty, which also made us nervous at first, but it ended up being the PERFECT place for our special occasion. Virtually no distracting noise, food was phenomenal, and the waiter was so attentive. Overall, our experience was truly wonderful.

    Diana was a fantastic server! Very friendly and accommodating with our dietary needs (what's gluten free? what has dairy?). She congratulated us multiple times on our special occasion and made us feel at home. As a bonus, the food was excellent! Vegan chili was good and the poutine was incredible :)

    We certainly will go back. This restaurant in a “hip” hotel surrounded by lots of foreign embassies feels like it could be in a Scandinavian country. Their menu consists of dishes created by chefs from neighboring embassies. It is a clever idea and they carry it off well. This month’s focus was Indonesia, but they also had dishes from many other countries. We were there for Restaurant Week, so each had three courses for a fixed price plus wine. Everything was delicious and the service was excellent. We weren’t rushed, but we also weren’t forgotten. It was a very pleasant experience.

    Food was just pretty bland, especially for the high cost it was just, nothing had much flavor or seasoning at all. Borderline inedible, we left a lot of food. The menu inspired by the embassies and the international area had so much potential and just did NOT deliver. Service was alright, and the restaurant itself is pretty cute.
