Great place, especially at lunch.
I love Natasha’s. My wallet will tell a different story. The lunch buffet is a wonderful spread of tantalizing and comforting concoctions. The stews will never disappoint nor will the addicting garlicky salad dressing. There are many spreads, salads, and sides to choose from ranging from hummus to potato salad. The Midnight Chicken and Gypsy Stew are not to be missed. Coffee and tea is another great Natasha’s offering.

The sadness hits when you find your small plate not big enough to fill with all the choices presented. The price of the buffet is judged on the weight of your food; it is not an all-you-can-eat buffet. I find this a rather heartbreaking way of controlling the diner’s pocketbook, appetite, and options. On a day when you need to save money, but want great buffet-style Mediterranean food, head over to The Oasis in Chevy Chase.

The servers and counter workers are always very accommodating and helpful. The dinner menu is wonderful. Although, for someone who appreciates the eclectic Natasha’s, I find it overpriced. It is hard to genuinely accept the diverse image it conveys when those that love that diversity can’t afford the experience.

I love this place
I've eaten here a few times for both lunch and dinner. Lunch was fun, but I'm not into buffets, especially as you are paying by the weight, not per head.

So I recommend going when they are playing music for dinner. It's a great atmosphere and they have the best borscht I have ever eaten.    [10 Jan 2006 08:36:21]

Eclectic cuisine and atmosphere
We were immediately drawn in by the worldly charm of this enchanting bistro! The ambiance is exotic—with surroundings of art and decor rich in culture and history.

The food is equally as tantalizing.

The eclectic menu was impressive-- with delicious selections from around the world-- including Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, Asian, and even some local favorites. We started off with the Mediterranean sampler— including Baba ghanouj, hummus, tabouli, and mushroom salad-- the hummus is the best I’ve had anywhere. For our main attractions we went the variety circuit: a spinach pesto pizza, the midnight chicken (curry), sweet chili stir-fry, and the shipwreck pasta (seafood medley in a parmesan cream sauce!). We topped off the meal with some fine Turkish coffee.

A perfect evening!    [21 Jun 2006 21:13:50]
