The vibe
Rated #7 of all Washington DC restaurants on Tripadvisor (1,700+ reviews, 4.7 stars). TripAdvisor Travelers' Choice. One of DC's best-known Balkan restaurants with a devoted following and media coverage from Washington Post, Eater, and Washingtonian. The unlimited small plates dinner format is a DC institution. The closest high-rated destination restaurant to the Navy Yard / Capitol Hill boundary, with a weekday happy hour and a recurring wine-bottle half-off deal on Wednesdays and Sundays that is one of the most generous bottle specials in the area.
