BETHESDA ROW RESTAURANT WEEK - Inside the Menus: LEBANESE TAVERNA

BETHESDA ROW 
RESTAURANT WEEK 

Inside the Menus: 

LEBANESE TAVERNA 

There are many wonderful aromas emitting from the restaurants around Bethesda Row.  If I had to pick the best-smelling corner in Bethesda, it would definitely be Lebanese Taverna's at Elm Street and Arlington Road.  If it's time for lunch or dinner, a walk past will turn you into a customer!

And of course, the food tastes as good as it smells.  They also have very nice patio seating outside of the restaurant, allowing you to enjoy all the goings on at Bethesda Row while sharing your mezza with tablemates.
