Fodor's Review:

This casual, mostly vegetarian restaurant is a rare find, with an airy Mediterranean-style ground floor (its latest decoration scheme is a vaguely tribal design) and a darker, candlelit upstairs. The always-innovative menu changes daily but usually consists of a soup, a couple of salads, half a dozen baked vegetable dishes, and four or five pastas -- as well as a handful of meat and seafood specials. Favorites include green salad with sautéed mushrooms and Parmesan shavings; baked avocado, mushroom, and eggplant lasagna; pan-fried halloumi cheese with grilled cherry tomatoes; and salmon ravioli in a creamy dill sauce.

Great food; Very smoky

Posted by harishshan from Washington DC on 7/21/07
I loved the menu. Great food diversty and quality. Seem the night I was there, every one was drawing on a cigarette and this just made for a very smoky environment.
