My wife and I had an amazing dinner here and highly recommend it. We shared a mixed grill paired with a Rioja wine recommended by Ignacio. Perfect place for a special meal or date night.

really nice looking restaurant, great for a night out, sort of jungle vibe inside with plants and lots of light. food overall is ok, labneh and baba were the favorite dips, pita is fluffy and warm. also loved the salad, the mains and desserts were ok
Everything was grilled to perfection, even the chicken
Everything was grilled to perfection, even the chicken which is hard to pull off. All the dips were fresh and smooth. The brussel sprouts a little sweet yet interesting with halved grapes. The lamb burger was juicy with a well paired salad. Service

I just left Illi, and I need to process what just happened to my tastebuds. This isn't your typical neighborhood Mediterranean joint; this is where they bring the culture and the culinary expertise. First impression: spacious and beautifully in

I had tried Ilili in New York City, so I was excited to try the location in DC. However, I left feeling a little underwhelmed after a dinner here. I ordered the mixed kebab with the smoked beets. The smoked beets were a little too acidic and didn&#
What a wonderful experience! We had never had Lebanese
What a wonderful experience! We had never had Lebanese food and it was great. It's a small plate type of restaurant so they recommend at least two items on the menu for a party of two. Started off with their hummus (added their lamb confit).
One of my favorite places to brunch in DC.
Service, food, and ambiance are top tier. The French toast, pancakes, and oysters are among my favorite things there. They over several juice options with the mimosas and a choice of white or rose champagne. Be sure to make reservations but it is wel

Have been wanting to come here for a while now and finally got to try before going to a concert at the Anthem. The inside is beautifully decorated and offers a nice view of the Wharf so you can people watch. My friend and I ordered the mouhamara, lab

They made no bones about the fact that they wanted to turn the tables as fast as they could.
This is the first restaurant I've been to in a while where I was made to feel that I wasn't stylish enough for the place. When we were seated, we were handed menus, but not asked if we wanted a drink. We could have saved ourselves a lot
Nice location but food is mediocre.
very pricy and small portion. Menu doesn't have a lot of options. Service was good overall. I was there on Monday for dinner and the place was pretty empty.
You are a wonderful experience here.
The restaurant is very well run. You can see this by the systems and the hospitality that the service staff have. He had a light dinner and the tapas were quite fulfilling. I love the Alamaza lager which comes from Lebanon and they have some pretty g
The food was SO unique and delicious.
Everyone I encountered was very attentive to us. The restaurant was beautiful and we sat close to the windows had a view of the wharf. We went there for an anniversary and would come again

This place is gorgeous beautiful indoor patio design and the food is amazing! The service was top-notch, and we love going for birthdays or when we have guests over.
Amazing - been here twice, several years apart.
Both times we got the mixed grill. Delicious, but we think the portions shrank with inflation rising. The bread is the best Lebanese bread you can get in the DMV. The interior is gorgeous and service is on point. Great for special occasions.
The food was good, nothing too special.
Average for a Lebanese restaurant. Not expensive for a restaurant at the wharf. Our bill was about $70 before tip, we ordered two dishes, one appetizer & drinks. Would I go there again? Probably not but if you want to try something new I would sa

We stopped here for an early dinner.
We made a reservation. The restaurant is quite airy and spacious inside. We ordered the baba ghannoj which we ate with the pita pillows. The pita was fresh and soft. We had the mixed grill (chicken, beef & lamb), arnabeet mekle (cauliflower) and

Hubby brought me here for my birthday! Beautiful space and right in the center of the wharf. Service was pretty good and the food didn't disappoint. The halibut was delicious and the lamb was cooked perfectly. The table side kunafa was a must. I
Attentive service.
Everything has vinegar, onions and. garlic. Not suitable for a date!!! Attentive service, pleasant ambiance steep bill.
Poorly Trained Staff Serving Mediocre Overpriced Food
Well I don’t even know where to start. The front hostesses were pretty with no brain.s. I had used the restroom there before I was seated. My family was seated and I asked one of the hostesses where my family was seated. I gave here the reservatio
Great venue but average and overpriced food and slow and inefficient service
A beautiful venue, dimly lit and wood panelling with an inviting ambience but unfortunately, the experience falls short. The service was slow and inefficient; we had to track down the server for basic requests like food and more drinks. The Lebanes
Delicious Mediterranean food with great service
The atmosphere was really welcoming, and the staff made us feel right at home. I tried their hummus and lamb chops, and both were amazing—the flavors were spot on. The hummus was so creamy and fresh, and the lamb was perfectly cooked. The portions
Good food and nice atmosphere
The restaurant has good food and a nice atmosphere. There are a lot of small plates on the menu so it is a good menu for groups. The pita bread that comes with many of the dishes is fantastic.
terrible service and disappointing food
the waiter was rude and the food was not up to the bill. we took a TABBOULEH and inside there was only parsley. the water costs more than the beer. a place to absolutely forget. Massimo

Small portions. Very expensive. Improve taste.
We have been a fan of Ilili for many years. Today’s family lunch for 7 was a disappointment. The French fries were double fried (burnt), the aubergine was too salty, the fattoush had no taste… it is still Lebanese authentic cuisine but unfortuna
Amazing service, food, and atmosphere.
Beautiful decor. The food was incredible and not that expensive for the quality and quantity. Is definitely a spot I will bring more out of town guests to

This place is awesome!! We went as a large group and so we had to go with a prix fixe menu. Everything was absolutely fantastic! The food, the staff, the service, the vibes- amazing! This is definitely worth a trip if you are at the Wharf.
A great start to an afternoon.
The setting was open and airy yet also quiet and private. The food was very good. The service was impeccable, servers were attentive, accomodating, yet not intrusive. PS, "family" consisted of all adult siblings.
Host customer service ruined the experience
Customer accommodation was horrible . Since we walked on the host George treated us like we were begging .. I reserved 2 tables one of 9 and another one of 6 (they did advise that it's was not Guaranteed we will be seated close ) however when we arr

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to ilili Restaurant DC Washington at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the ilili Restaurant DC Washington page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* ElaborateHouse74, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* ElaborateHouse74 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to ElaborateHouse74 for any questions Peter may have as ElaborateHouse74 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* ElaborateHouse74 now uses their connections at ilili Restaurant DC Washington to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If ElaborateHouse74 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, ElaborateHouse74 receives the $200 reward which is credited to ElaborateHouse74's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at ilili Restaurant DC Washington!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
