7 Best DC Restaurants For A Group Dinner - Washington DC - The Infatuation

"Agora should be one of the first restaurants that pops into your head when you’re thinking about group dinners in DC. From the second you arrive at the outdoor host stand, you’ll be surrounded by groups of people laughing and talking loudly on the patio. Friends young and old, families getting together—there’s a little bit of everyone enjoying the Mediterranean food at the Dupont Circle spot. You’ll be glad you chose to come with your college friend group instead of eating solo, especially when you can’t decide between the grilled chicken covered in za’atar and sumac and the sucuklu, a spicy Turkish sausage flatbread, because now you can share. Be forewarned: the patio is huge and packed year-round, so plan in advance. But given how long it usually takes for there to be a free date on everyone’s calendar, you should be alright." - tristiana hinton, omnia saed
