The Aziz • May 1, 2019One of the best in D.C. Their burger and sandwiches are amazing. Mushroom &Swiss burger is my favorite. From the start take the lobster & crabs cake or Truffle fries.

Bader J. • May 5, 2018Start with the osetra caviar and finish with Kinship After Eight, the balance of flavors in this dessert is just incredible. The scallops, lobster french toast, and poached halibut are must. Delicious

Debby R. • June 12, 2013We had the chef's tasting menu and it was spectacular. Highly recommend.

Jan K. • April 20, 2018Very fancy hotel, great services and bars

C L. • March 28, 2018Excellent addition to the neighborhood. Great quality cocktails, service, and atmosphere. Only downside is they don't open until 6 and they don't serve any food. Highly recommend.

Omari A. • July 27, 2021Love the ambiance here. If you can’t get a resy for the main dining room, ask if you can sit downstairs at the speakeasy. Fav parts of my meal were La Luna, the short ribs tacos, and the enchiladas!

Felix L. • December 24, 2023Everything - had the beef tartar and croquettes!

Berk U. • May 19, 2016Ottoman Taverna was the best Turkish restaurant in the town obviously! I and my friend went there last week, we really enjoyed the turkish appetizers and mezes. Iskender Kebab was the best!!!
