Levante's - Calumet-Norvelt

I ordered a Beyti kebab to go. The meat and the rice were good, but the kebab had no butter or vegetables. It is quite overpriced and an incomplete dish. I thought it would resemble a dish from Turkey...

Wonderful atmosphere. I came here with a friend and we had just a wonderful time. I live all the way out in Gaithersburg and coming all the way here to Levantes made the drive just worth while. Come here, it is wonderful and you will not regret it, the service is wonderful.

Excellent location, close to the Dupont Circle metro station. Levante's is the type of place you can come with work colleagues, a good friend or for dinner with your husband. Having lived in the Middle East for 4 years I know that the Turkish/Lebanese food is authentic. The service is polite and friendly and it is lovely on a spring/summer day when you can sit outside.

Went there for my 25th birthday celebration before heading out on the town. We had a group of 12 and we all had a great time. The food was good and it wasn't that pricey for downtown DC (read: around $17 a plate). The atmosphere is wonderful, there is an open grill and anything from it is worth getting. The service wasn't the best, the waiter could have been more attentive but he made up for it by being really nice. If you are looking for a nice restaurant where you can eat well and have a short walking distance to many great clubs and bars I would highly recommend Levante's.

We live about 45 minutes away and we visit once a week. Levante's has the by far the best service of any restaurant in the DC/Maryland area. I only go to the DC location and I walk out of there with a huge smile on face every single time. Food is fabulous and great value. I recommend Levante's to everyone. You can dress up or dress right down; you will not feel out of place either way. Hats off to Levante's!!
