A woman bussing our table took a washcloth and cleaned the table while we were finishing our drinks. It was odd and rather gauche. People trying to clean the tables are very aggressive. They kept trying to take dishes while we’re still eating. Didn’t like that at all.

Table was not ready 10 minutes after reservation time. Restaurant was over-crowded and so noisy it was impossible to talk . We decided to leave rather than wait to be seated!! Expecting much better.

I have been to Zaytinya (DC) many times and it is my favorite restaurant in DC. The food is always outstanding. I had the lamb and hummus, grilled halloumi, falafel, and octopus and they were all amazing.
