Judging Restaurants – Cafe Ole

By Prince Of Petworth

Cafe Ole is located at 4000 Wisconsin Ave. (across the street from the great Filipino-Japanese Market I featured yesterday). They say they are known for having over 30 different Mezze/tapas from all over the Mediterranean. I used to hit this spot occasionally before going to the movie theater located near by but I think that movie theater closed, right? I seem to recall the food was pretty good. You can see the menu here. Any fans out there?
