Was Dan Drago at Rawa a mag?
The food was incredible, the atmosphere was lovely, the service was excellent, and the owner was very welcoming! We are fans of Middle Eastern Mediterranean cuisine, and this was likely the best we've experienced. The hummus, Baba Ghanouj, Foule, Muhammara, Chicken Biryani, and Pistachio Baklava were all outstanding. We will definitely be coming back! View all feedback.
What Margarita Lygina dislikes about Rawa:

This restaurant is fantastic! The food is outstanding, and the atmosphere has a charming vibe with lots of unique artwork. Although the staff was quite limited, our waitress managed to handle every table, taking orders while also being the hostess, food runner, and bartender—all at once! Despite the hectic environment, she remained cheerful and never seemed overwhelmed, which made me appreciate this place even more. The dip sampler is absolutely delicious, and the lamb kabobs and homemade falafel with pita were just as amazing. I really wish I lived closer; I'd definitely become a regular here.
Great food. I had the chicken kebab. Service was great. Very good setting to enjoy yourself alone or with company.
Last Friday, my wife and I hosted a 31-guest dinner at RAWA in their private side room: simply amazing! Food was incredible and plentiful. Service was responsive and friendly. Atmosphere was perfect for what we needed.Food: 5/5
