This place opens at 5:30, so my friend & I arrived to a fairly empty dining room at 5:45. It took at least 15 minutes before anyone came to our table, even to offer us water. The bread, which should…

I usually enjoy the Lebanese Taverna - I know it's a chain, I know it's probably nothing like "real" Lebanese food...but man, I just can't stay away from their fatteh bel bathenjan (yogurt-based dish…

I like their kibbee with yougurt and thats about it. They serve nice fresh bread.Their shawarma platter however is a joke. It tastes nothing like the original deal. This place is alright.

Excellent and FRESH Mediterranean food. For lunch I had the MEDITERRANEAN MEZZA- a sampling of baba ghanoush, meat pie, lebneh, m'saka, tabouleh, spinach pie, lubieh and fattoush. Every one of the…

It was ok, but as usual, Americanized "Middle Eastern food." It was ok; it just wasn't Middle Eastern.

The Good: I think the food here was really good. The sujok was the best appetizer we had. The mixed grill entree was tasty, as was the deboned chicken. Unlike past reviewers, I thought the portions…

Taverna does not have the best Lebanese food in DC, the service is hit or miss, the majority of people that work there are not Lebanese, and the baklava is too sweet... but I love this place to death.…
