14th Street corridor
Middle Eastern
The fiery hearth in the center of this tucked-away Middle Eastern–inspired dining room makes it one of the most transportive restaurants in DC. Opt for the generous $75 “tawle” feast, which will fill your table with flame-kissed vegetables, meats, and flatbread accompanied by an array of dips and condiments. The main event: your choice of “center plates,” such as a butterflied branzino or a whole roasted cauliflower. The massive spiced lamb shoulder showered in sumac onions and herbs is worth the upcharge.
