  1. I've been to Zaytinya 3 times, each time it's gotten worse. It's sad because after the first time I really loved it. The second time was very good, but the most recent time was pretty disappointing. The meat came out overcooked. Maybe it was just a bad day. Some of my favorites:

    Positives:

    the bread - it comes out hot and it is delicious. they make sure there is always fresh bread on ur table. plus it's free!

    hummus - i love their hummus, especially w/ their delicious bread

    lamb kebab - ive gotten it 3 times. 1 time it was amazing, the 2nd time it was good, the last time it wasn't very good

    spiced sirloin - my favorite dish there so far

    scallops - two giant succulant scallops

    koftededs - lamb and beef meat ball type things. really tasty

    i can't remember the names of most of the other dishes

    negatives:

    there are some dishes i've gotten that i haven't been crazy about

    the service there isn't the best

    the quality of food has been up and down for me, but when it's good, it's really good

  2. I just got back from my first trip to Las Vegas. While I was there I got a chance to go to Sensi at the Bellagio. What a wonderful experience! The decor is beautiful, the service was great, and the food was delicious. As soon as you got up from your chair, the waiters replaced your napkin with a new one (that will always get me bonus points) The waiters were almost too nice. Anyways, the food. I had a kobe beef appetizer. It was great. For my entree i had the Braised Veal. Wow, that veal was so good. Very tender and tasty. I also go the tempura asparagus. The sauce that comes with that is addicting. For dessert I had a chocolate cake. Compared to the first two cources, it was just ok. I will definitely be going back next time in Vegas

  3. i'm just a poor college student but i really like trying new restaurants in dc. i've only recently started going to nicer restaurants in dc. i really like the places in penn quarter. i've been to oya, zengo, zaytinya, ceiba, ps7s and zola. out of all those zaytinya is probably my favorite foodwise. i liked oya for it's decor. the only one i didn't like was zola. i thought the food was actually pretty bad when i went. i've also tried matchbox in the same area. their mini burgers are really good

  4. I'm not sure if this is the right place to introduce myself, but i didn't see anywhere specifically for that. Anyways, this site looks like a great place to get info on dc restaurants. My question is, is there a part of the site that i can look for specific cuisines? I only see topics about individual restaurants. is there like a japanese, indian, mediterranean topic? or is there like a cheap eat part? i'm looking for good cheap burritos and jamaican restaurants.
