Best Restaurants for Quiet Conversation in Forest Hill / West Portal

We had a wonderful evening at Ofena! Our large group celebrated 5-years of co-founding a neighborhood nonprofit. The Ofena team made this so special! From the festive Schramsberg sparkling rose to the delicious desserts and everything in between, we were delighted. The private room is beautiful and perfect for family or work events.

Delicious food, lovely space, kind, caring, and attentive staff. Perfect in every way!

Food and service were excellent. Lunch: We had Breaking bread (pita with about 6 spreads-don't miss that.) Spring tabouleh which was so unique and much better than what you usually get at mediterranean restaurants. Excellent flavor and texture. Criapy lamb riblets. a stuffed onion dolma which was fantastic. the only dish we were not crazy about was the turkish lamb dumplings in a tomato sauce. Service was impeccable and friendly. Highly recommend this and eat family style so you can taste alot.

Friendly, neighborhood restaurant. Great cocktails. Well- prepared food but I miss the old menu which had deviled eggs, fritters for happy hour menu and meatloaf. A while back there was the most delicious pork chop with a creamy mushroom sauce. I still think about it. Nicely decorated with beautiful, lit wreaths for the holidays. The staff go out of their way to check in with you for drinks, etc

A great location to meet friends for breakfast! We had a small, more private area as a party of 8. We were able to enjoy each other's company and spend time with each other before traveling home. Food was excellent, service was outstanding.
