Darvish Kitchen

I am blown away by how beautiful every part of this restaurant is. 3 levels, and there is so much space and attention to detail. The interior is absolutely incredible, the service is super attentive and friendly, and just everything was 100/100. The Persian espresso martinis - OMG! The lamb and saffron rice were amazing. First 2 floors are dining, 3rd floor is a BEAUTIFUL lounge for fun and live music. I love this restaurant and found my new favorite place in all of DC - we are OBSESSED! Thank you!

I’ve seen this place on social media and finally had the chance to check it out and the food, service, & atmosphere did not disappoint! We got a bunch of food items and some of my favorites were the Mirza Ghasemi, Tachin, & saffron ice cream. The drinks including the Lavashak cocktail were really tasty as well. The ambience was lowlit and intimate and the waitstaff were lovely.

Amazing spot. We had beef and chicken kebob. They comes with rice, marinated cabbage, onion. You also get little bowl with spicy, very aromatic herbal sos. Plus amazing honey cake (medovik like in Eastern Europe) and Napoleon. These 2 is hard to find in US. Highly recommended!

I recommend to begin the journey with a Ranginak Old Fashioned. You will instantly realize the attention to detail with the fabulous Persian food you are about to enjoy. The watermelon and feta salad explodes in your mouth, followed by the combination platter so you don’t have to decide and you completely give in to the experience. I tried a red sour beer to go with lamb chops. The owner brought a nice treat of homemade hot sauce and I was at the apex of my meal. Lots of great desserts choices and I finished it all off with a Persian affogato. What a meal!! I highly recommend this wonderful restaurant here in our nations capital. If you are lucky Yoseph will be your guide.

Incredible restaurant. Appetizers, bread, dip and main courses were all superb! Wait staff is very friendly. Food comes out in a timely manner and cooked perfectly. The atmosphere is well decorated. Great for a 3rd or 4th date spot. The cocktails are crafted carefully and taste delicious!
