Summary: Experience soulful Levantine cuisine.

At Albi, indulge in a soulful and modern take on Levantine cuisine, served in a lively setting with an open flame hearth. This Navy Yard gem offers a polished array of mezze, grilled meats, and hearty staples like pita and hummus, all enhanced by the warmth of wood smoke and Levantine spices. The space boasts a welcoming bar and chef's counter, setting the scene for an authentic Middle Eastern dining experience in the heart of DC. Guests can enjoy an à la carte menu or delve into a hyper-seasonal prix-fixe, with every dish promising a delightful surprise, especially those kissed by the fire of the wood hearth. To cap off the meal, the brown butter knafeh with yogurt ice cream is an unmissable treat, perfectly paired with a selection from the extensive Mediterranean and Middle Eastern wine list.
