Think in contrasts
A shared Mediterranean meal feels most inviting when the dishes do different jobs. Choose one substantial centerpiece, such as a mixed grill or a rice specialty. Add a creamy mezze, then something fresh and crisp. At Old Damascus, that could mean a grill platter, hummus or baba ghanoush, and a fattoush or Greek salad.
The idea is not to order one of everything. A few contrasting textures make it easier for guests to taste each dish and leave room for dessert.
Let the group guide the selection
For a small group, separate plates and a shared appetizer may be enough. For a larger table, the family platters listed on the menu offer different sizes and side choices. If someone prefers a meat-free selection, the menu also includes falafel, dips, and salads; ask the restaurant about ingredients and preparation for any dietary requirement.
When guests have different appetites, confirm portions and sides at checkout rather than estimating from a photo. The restaurant can advise directly when you are planning catering.
Finish with something memorable
A dessert such as baklawa or booza can give a shared meal a natural final course. Browse the full menu for the current selection, then call +1 (214) 242-9870 if your table has questions about an item or a planned event.
If your group is ordering for the first time, use the menu categories as a planning tool: one main dish, one mezze, one salad, then a dessert if everyone wants one. That structure keeps the order focused while still giving people different flavors to explore. It also makes it easier to adjust for guest count after checking the portion descriptions in the ordering flow.
