"Dupont’s former home of Mari Vanna turned into an eclectic Persian getaway led by the owners of Lima Twist. Open for lunch and dinner out of the gate with a menu full of dips, soups, fragrant salads, rice dishes, branzino, turmeric-flanked lamb shank, gorgeous desserts and breads prepared daily, and creative cocktails like an espresso martini made with pistachio syrup. The full-scale renovation includes lots of artistic odes to Iranian nightlife and culture, including a stylish third-floor Kolbeh lounge lined with black-and-white photos of family members and friends." - Tierney Plumb
