About

DarSalam’s downtown dining room pairs Iraqi dishes such as falafel mezza, chickpea stew, and lentil Adis soup with colorful tilework and decor about Iraqi history. Reviews praise the generous portions, friendly service, and clearly marked options, but one diner reported yogurt in a platter labeled vegan, so confirm ingredients when ordering.
