It's a beautiful restaurant that sits along the river and has some beautiful views - especially on a gorgeous spring/summer evening! Their food is top notch as well! I've dined in several times in the past, but decided to get takeaway and take it to the pavilion by the pedestrian bridge to people watch and have a nice after dinner walk. Food to go was just as good as dining in - at least for the Chicken Kebab. Made with white meat chicken, you get 5-6 large pieces with rice and veggies. I was excited to learn they had rice pudding to go as well because theirs is quite good! I ordered over the phone, had about a 25 min wait on a busy evening. All were friendly and ensuring I was being helped.

We started with the next appetizer plate. You get to try a little bit of everything, but my favorite was the dolmas. The hummus and Baba are both incredible. I couldn't get enough of it and used it on my entrées as well. For entrées, we ordered chicken biryani and tandoori beef kabob bbq. Everything was extremely flavorful and well prepared. My favorite dish was the beef kabob which I didn't expect! Enjoyed the chicken biryani but do wish the chicken came without bones. Definitely would return and recommend this place for a unique menu.

I ordered the Vegetarian Sampler. The Falafel is the best I've had anywhere: super crispy on the outside and moist and flavorful on the insides. Hummus and Baba Ghanoush are both top notch, nicely seasoned on top with fresh parsley. The Grape Leaves were vegetarian, stuffed with seasoned rice, but served warm. I've never had them that way before, but it worked. The portion was huge. I took at least half of it home. Columbus Food Adventures notes that Dahab has a traditional Jordanian dish, Mansaf, which is Lamb marinated in fermented yogurt, then grilled and served on a bed of rice on a paper-thin flatbread. I intend to try that when I am able to.

We started with the spinach feta pie. That was outstanding! I ordered the Greek steak and rice. It came with plenty of sauce on the side. We shared a Greek salad as well.

I'll definitely be back!
