Went to Damas for valentines day with my boyfriend - it was absolutely amazing.
Food : the food was outstanding. Probably one of the best Arabic inspired meals I've ever had in this city. We took the tasting menu. The baba ganoush was not made with the typical ingredients but was BY FAR the best I've ever had. The jumbo shrimp was cooked to perfection. But the absolute best was the lamb. I have nothing bad to say about the food and you can taste the quality of the ingredients.
Wine : they have a decent wine list. What I liked the most is that they follow the restaurants theme and have a lot of quality wines from the Middle East.
Service : the service was great. Our waiter was very knowledgeable and the manager did walk around to make sure everyone was doing okay.
Decor: simple but delivers and follows the theme.
I suggest you make reservations and ask for a table that isn't 1/2 booth. I was happy that we had our table with 2 chairs.
Im giving this restaurant 4.5 stars only because the tables are very close together and it's a little bit tight. But this is typical for restaurants in that area.
I would definitely take friends there.
