1. Namak

    Mediterranean, Persian

    Namak is an upscale-casual Mediterranean spot in Adams Morgan that pulls from Persian, Greek, Turkish, and North African traditions without feeling like it's doing a geography lesson. The room is genuinely pretty, all Moroccan tile and cozy alcoves, and the crowd skews date-night couples and neighborhood regulars who've quietly claimed their corner. The kitchen takes familiar dishes and nudges them somewhere better, which is the whole point.
