Meat-eating carnivores and the strictest of vegans unite! New York favorite Taïm has a new location in nearby Georgetown, not far from your downtown pet-friendly apartment, and the Mediterranean cuisine is nothing short of a plant-based miracle. Rich, flavorful dishes like falafel, mezze platters, and cauliflower shawarma are so packed with herbs and spices that you’d never guess you’re eating a vegetarian meal. Choose from Taïm’s specialties on freshly baked pita or atop a fresh salad, then add extras like feta, olives, and sauces to your heart’s content. Taïm also offers seasonal specialties, incredible spiced fries, and thick, fruity smoothies to wash it all down.

Check out the shop on Wisconsin Avenue, right near the C & O Canal. Taïm is open daily from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Once you fall in love with the hummus, tzatziki, and babaganoush, don’t forget Taïm’s catering menu for all your holiday get-togethers.
