Dining alone at Ottoman Taverna in Washington, D.C. was one of those rare experiences that stays with you long after the last bite. From the moment I sat down, I felt genuinely cared for — and that was entirely thanks to Vusal. He was kind, attentive, and carried an effortless professionalism that made the entire evening feel special. His timing, knowledge, and sincerity reflected a deep respect for both the food and the guest. Every recommendation was spot on, every gesture thoughtful. The food itself was extraordinary — full of flavor, heart, and warmth — but it was Vusal’s service that elevated the night into something unforgettable. If I could give him infinite stars, I truly would. Ottoman Taverna is more than a restaurant; it’s hospitality done with heart.
