Having lived near SOFRA and all of its glory, I have long been awaiting trying its sister restaurant, and I was not let down! The small plates are so creative and was fun to try a variety of things. The pork belly biscuits were life-changing! Do not miss it.

I love Oleana and have gone there many times. The food rarely if ever disappoints. Highlights last night were the fatteh, lamb and summer squash roulade, sultans delight, the striper, and the deviled eggs. The one area for improvement is the welcome. The servers are always nice, but ... I always leave with the sense that they aren't very interested in the customers, because the food is enough to get people to come back.

Our first time trying Afghani cuisine. The restaurant was attractive...I even saw a few beautiful rugs, service was helpful (though one order was initially incorrect, it was quickly fixed.) The appetizers were especially good,and my friend said the rack of lamb was delicious. My meal was good, but less spicy than I was expecting. Again, this was my first time eating Afghani cooking. We were pleased there was a quite nice wine list.
