D C Cafe - Washington

When I first arrived at this restaurant, I was put off by the outdated decor and the greasy condition of the establishment, including the worn-out menus, walls, and tables. However, my opinion began to improve after I ordered my food, despite the difficulty I had in communicating my vegan preferences to the staff. I was reassured by the steady flow of customers coming in to place their orders. The Lebanese salad was a pleasant surprise with its mix of mesclun leaves, which I found to be tasty. I appreciated that the staff made sure to exclude any dairy-based dressings. The mesclun, fresh bell peppers, green onions, and cucumbers were all very fresh and delicious. The falafel was decent, though a bit darker than I prefer. I was unsure about the fries being vegan, as they had a coating and a slightly sweet scent. Despite this, I believe this restaurant could be a decent choice for late-night dining, particularly for those looking for salad and falafel options. It's reassuring to know that the food is made fresh and can be watched being prepared.
