Apps are great. Nice place indoor and outdoor seating areas . Waiters could be a tad more attentive but still fine. Surprisingly they don’t have fries on their menu! Portions are tiny so order a lot!

Michael Cox

DC's booziest brunch . Cross your fingers that Vessi is your server. She knows what bottomless brunch really means. Great deal, amazing Turkish fare.

Sandra Rubinchik

Flatbreads $6 during happy hour at the bar . Get the lahmacun one, even if you have to say it really fast or point to it on the menu to save yourself the embarrassment.

Rick Servoss

Many options for vegetarians . Has delicious grilled calamari . Their desserts are worth saving some room for. Has a good & unique beer list .

Olivia Chang

Waitress did a great job topping off my mimosa . Excellent Sujuklu Pide (flatbread with Turkish sausage and pesto ) and an overall fantastic brunch deal .

HalaH A

The food here is absolutely delicious! Agora could easily be one of my favorite Mediterranean restaurants in DC.

John E

Great meal. Tapas style small plates with great favors. Get the red beet and orange salad served over lemon mash potatoes--amazing! So good.

Eric Mitchell

Good turkish food . Specialty flatbreads are amazing. Lamb loin is good too. Add yogurt sauce to anything to make it extra special.

El

Food is really good here, but the portions as they tell you when you go there, are small. So if you're hungry it can get a little expensive since you have to order more than two from the menu.

Alena Callaghan

Brunch special is $30 for bottomless drinks and unlimited tapas . You won't find a buffet of rubbery scrambled eggs here, and the hummus is fantastic.

Zahra Zeinali

Appetizers were great. For entree I had the kofta which was too salty and not so good.

Nazila Mathari

It was delicious. I know the food from the region pretty well and I was pleasantly surprised at how good it was (visiting from NY)

Dion Barela

Always delicious, great atmosphere and wonderful eye candy . Try something new, you won’t regret it.

Humberto Gonzalez

GREAT restaurant !! Try the Pere Jaques beer , it is amazing. These beers are above grade beer people, of course you're going to pay a little more. Try the alabalik and the chef 's borek , DELICIOUS

ben c

Delicious! Trout , adana kebab , spinach among the best I've had for Turkish food . Not sure why people didn't like the service. Ours was great.

Michael Cox

Amazing outdoor bottomless brunch , especially after so much snow. Get the htipiti - delicious!

Jae Watkins

I went with a large party and shared lots of little plates. Most of them were really tasty

Josh B

Great wine list - and very gluten-free friendly menu. Almost all appetizers and many entrees are gf.

Ethar El-Katatney

awesome Greek food . Great bread and dips , tender meat, and delicioussss dessert .

TBD

We Love DC recommends you try the Raki , Turkey 's national drink. Combining the flavors of aniseed and distilled fruits , the drink also pairs well with several dishes. Read more

Darcy D

Tomato soup is delicious and comes with nice airy Mediterranean bread

Josh Gibbs

The cushions under the table are very comfortable .

Bitches Who Brunch

Bitches Say A. Great brunch deal , chic atmosphere, lovely patio for summertime. Not every dish is a win, but enough are to make this great.

Roberto Hinojosa

Food was very good, especially the pide. Service was DC style slow but it was nice to sit outdoors under the canopy in the heavy rain.

Ben Parthree

The food at Agora could not be more authentic if the restaurant was in Istanbul. Be sure to order lots of meze !

Alexa

All you can eat food and drink and the service was great! Def going back for brunch

Patrick Algyer

Amazing food, great service, really good drinks. Definitely will be back!

Ilona de Heusch

Loved the vibe but not my favorite food. Labneh was amazing tho

Rana ????m

Very kind people and nice place. Please try Turkish Coffee and Kadayif.

Jasmine Chan

Small portions (even for a "small plates " format) but great quality. Taramasalata is fluffy and fantastic.

Bonnie Smyth

Amazing food and service. 10/10!

Kasper Lannoo

Plates are really small. You need to get a lot if you're hungry! (And spend a lot of money)

Antonello Loddo

Branzino and octopus meze . And the zucchini meze

Jeremy Edge

Good happy hour wine prices in a festive part of town .

Otávio Dib Partezani

Labneh and koftas are so good!

Allie Love

The swordfish is amazing!

Bob M

Everything was delicious. Best pita I ever had too.

Amy Cummings

Great packages for large groups!

Seiphemo M

Great brunch place ! Love the atmosphere with excellent service.

David B

Try one of the German beers on tap !

Arjun

Mucver, peynirli pide, and cacik are excellent.

Alena Callaghan

Bottomless brunch ends at 3pm on the dot, no matter when you're seated. Management is oddly confrontational about this.

Drew Bennett

All things yogurt are incredible here.

Cherie Morris

Sit at the bar and enjoy happy hour !

Sarpedon Nikolasoğlu

The food is nothing but mediocre for Turks, Greeks and all other fella from East Med. It is definitely over priced. I would not go there again. Their borek and baklava were quite good though.

Daniel Shaw

Their bottomless brunch is a pretty good deal , but I wasn't super into their food.

Hisham Aloufi

Cool ???? and awesome place ????????????

dancingqueen fAMedevoLv3xion

Sweetbreads , hh specials, brunch , bottomless mimosas

Brent Unkrich

Get the bottomless mimosa ... They're literally bottles.

Mike C

Food is fine. Hostess left a lot to be desired. Told us we could have the table until 8 pm then started pushing us out 30 minutes earlier. Used to come here all the time. There are better alternatives
