Definitely the perfect place to enjoy a beautiful day especially for their happy hour specials.
I haven’t come across many eateries that have happy hour starting at 2 pm.
The cocktails and apps on the happy hour menu were amazing.
Especially the Baba Ganoush, it was creamy and had enough flavors to still have the eggplant stand out.
The ambiance both inside and outside is nicely done. Outside you feel like you are at a posh garden patio while inside it’s very chic.
Did look into their dinner menu and they had lots of great options so will be stopping by soon to try them out.
PS the servers here are super friendly and efficient.

First time visiting, great little Mediterranean restaurant, viaited with friends. We had the dips sampler to share which was amazing, the eggplant dish was great, and the grains were very tasty as well. Highly recommend for vegetarians or healthy eating in general.

My recent visit to Ala left me thoroughly impressed and wanting to share my experience with fellow travelers. This place truly lives up to its reputation as a hidden gem! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by a warm and inviting ambiance. The decor is charming and unique, giving off a cozy yet elegant vibe.

The menu at Ala is a delightful mix of flavors that cater to various middle eastern palates. Whether you're a food adventurer or someone who prefers classic dishes, there's something here for everyone. I was particularly blown away by the attention to detail in the presentation of each dish – it's clear that the chefs take immense pride in their creations.

As for the location, it's nestled in a quieter part of town, away from the bustling crowds. This adds to the overall charm and tranquility of the place. Whether you're looking for a romantic dinner spot or a peaceful lunch, Ala fits the bill perfectly.

While my visit was wonderful overall, I found the pricing slightly on the higher side for the brunch oortions. However, considering the quality of ingredients, the culinary expertise, and the impeccable service, I can understand the reasoning behind it.

In summary, Ala is a place that deserves attention. If you're in search of a memorable dining experience that blends great food, ambiance, and service, then Ala should definitely be on your list. I'm already looking forward to my next visit and exploring more of what this hidden gem has to offer!

アメリカ人の友人におすすめされて、初めて訪れました。メトロDupont Circle駅南口出てすぐの地中海料理のお店です。メニューをみただけでは料理のイメージがつきづらいですが、ウェイターさんが丁寧に説明してくれたのと、テイクアウト用のサイトに料理の写真が載っているので、オーダーした料理はすべて大正解でした！日本人の大人二人で、snacks3皿（ピタ含む）、mezze3皿、デザート1皿でお腹いっぱいな量でした。ハーブがふんだんに使われていて、とてもヘルシーなお料理です。
