Namak - Review - Adams Morgan - Washington DC - The Infatuation
"A newcomer to the Adams Morgan scene, Namak mixes Persian, Greek, and Turkish flavors to stellar results. Case in point: the sesame-crusted fried feta that’s crispy on the outside, gooey on the inside, and paired with watermelon for a sweet-and-sour combo that’ll make you rethink every cheese dish you’ve ever tried. The house-made pita comes out warm, soft, and airy—perfect for scooping up olive-oil drizzled labneh, whipped goat cheese with honey, or garlicky eggplant. But the standout has to be the Greek chicken. It’s roasted just right and paired with zesty lemon potatoes. To top it all off, the restaurant’s beachy vibes—blue Mediterranean tiles and gold wicker basket lights—create the perfect setting to casually impress, whether you’re on a laid-back date or trying to show your in-laws that DC is more than just traffic circles and monuments. photo credit: Scott Suchman" - Omnia Saed
