Zaytinya | A Mediterranean Journey with Superb Value

I need to shout out about this place to everyone! 📣 The Mediterranean cuisine here is absolutely delicious! Each small dish is priced at just around $10-$20, and with the unlimited refills of the little bread, it’s definitely becoming my next go-to canteen! 🍽️💸 The scallops are highly recommended! They are pan-seared to perfection, and the sauce that looks like yogurt underneath is also very tasty. 🦪👌 The roasted cauliflower with cumin and chili powder barbecue seasoning is juicy and not dry at all. 🌿🌶️ The lamb leg rice is a festival special and not on the menu. You can ask the waiter for it. I’d call it the Mediterranean version of hand-pulled rice. The lamb leg is a large piece, and the overall flavor is similar to Xinjiang hand-pulled rice. 🐑🍚 The most magical part is the sauce that comes with each dish, all with different flavors and unique combinations, perfect for sopping up with the little bread. 🥄🍢 The classic Mediterranean color scheme and minimalist design give this restaurant a slightly business-like vibe. Anyway, it’s a place I’ll definitely keep coming back to! 🖼️💼 #DMVMustEats #WashingtonDCFood #WhatToEatInDMV #MediterraneanDiet #WashingtonDC #GreekCuisine #GreekTravel #NorthAmericanLife
