Welcome to Temel Restaurant

"Temel is the shy kid at the school dance who doesn't want to stand out in the crowd but hopes, prays, dreams somebody notices him"

Washington Post, September 17, 2000.

"Temel not only turns out some very appealing Turkish, Greek, and Israeli dishes…. It does so in a spare stylish environment that messages all the senses.  It is the kind of place where just two of you can dress up and get away from the kids for a special night out--or you can include them in a quite, affordable adventure."
