| - I made a reservation for Naya on OpenTable. Upon arrival at the restaurant, a waitress asked me if I wanted a table for two people. I mentioned that I had a reservation so that I would receive my OpenTable points. The waitress told us that my husband and I could sit anywhere. The restaurant looked very casual, so my husband commented to me that I was funny to make a reservation for the place. For my appetizer I ordered the Moskhan, which are crispy chicken dumplings. They tasted good but were slightly burned. I overhead a waiter telling a neighboring table that their appetizer was burned and that a new one was being made for them. Our Naya Salads looked plain with only one piece of cheese and one olive. The dressing tasted interesting. For our entrees, the waitress seemed unsure about which sides we could get. She said that we could get only rice pilaf or cous cous, although mashed potatoes, fries, and hummus were mentioned on the menu. I mentioned cous cous but then inquired about the hummus, and she replied that I could get it. My husband ordered lamb, which was a little dry, and I ordered beef schwarma, which had a nice sauce. Neither of us enjoyed his rice pilaf, but my cous cous was moist and fluffy. The waitress came over once to ask us if we needed anything, and she left without filling my husband's empty glass. I waved over another waiter, and he quickly gave us drink refills. At the end of the meal, when we received the check, we saw that the tiny side of hummus was not for free and was very expensive for the size. My husband did not enjoy his food, and he left a lot of food on his plate and said that we will not return. I did enjoy my food. My OpenTable points did not show up soon on the website. I was afraid that I would have to provide evidence to OpenTable that I had dined there, but my points did show up eventually.
