This is our seventh visit to Zaytinya in DC, Miami and NYC. The Holiday menu was mostly the regular menu items including the apps and salads. Standout item was Celebration rice with lamb. The lamb chops, brussel sprouts and falafel were below expectations. The almond cake was great but the parfait just ok. The wine pairing (2 whites, a red and a dessert wine) were all from Greece and nothing special. The dining room was less than a third full but the service was strained, likely the effect of short staffing on the Holiday. Will visit again on a regular day. Location is spectacular.

Amazing experience at Olio! The food was excellent and they were able to accommodate gluten free pasta with their pasta dishes, so good you couldn’t even tell! Also the panna cotta was one of the best desserts I’ve ever had!!! I’ll definitely be coming again!
