Shemalis is a hidden gem of a Lebanese restaurant located in a nondescript two-story building called Foxhall. The restaurant offers a variety of delicious Lebanese dishes, including a selection of Lebanese rolls, prepared salads, gyros wraps, and the popular chicken shawarma platter. The portions are quite large, and the food is described as higher quality than expected, with the falafel being bright green inside due to the fresh herbs. Shemalis is known for its world-class catering, and customers particularly recommend the garlic whip and lentil soup. The restaurant is considered the best deal in DC, with the baba ganoush and taboule being praised as the best the reviewers have ever had. Customers have enjoyed the loaded saucy platter, meat grape leaves, Fattoush salad with chicken, and Kebbe, which are described as some of the best in the DMV area. The catering service has been excellent, with fresh food arriving on time, a variety of dietary options, and professional service that allows customers to enjoy their events worry-free.
