Cafe Divan

Cafe Divan Review

This small Turkish restaurant with walls of windows on three sides is a gathering spot for D.C.'s Turkish community as well as Georgetown's Euro population. You can make a meal of meze, small plates with such morsels as cigar-shape cheese-filled phyllo pastries and rice-and-currant-stuffed grape leaves, or pace yourself and leave room for main courses like Iskender kebab, thin slices of veal and lamb piled on crisped pita chips with drizzles of yogurt and tomato sauce. The unconventional Turkish-style pizzas from the wood oven are wonderful as well.
