Flavorful, fresh food. I chose the Signature Chicken Shawarma Plate ($13.99), while my friend created her own Chicken Shawarma Plate. The Pomegranate Lemonade was $3.99. A good place for a quick lunch.

Best falafel on this planet! Taim is consistently excellent. Fresh, vibrant veggie bowls and perfect sauces. Everything made-to-order, kind and sincere staff in a casual, comfortable, and clean space. Taim = Tastes. Go for tastes you can’t get anywhere else in DC for a plant-forward meal

one of my favorite meals i had on my trip to DC! i made a build your own bowl with vegan ingredients. it was so flawless and delicious i checked their store locator to see if i could start racking up rewards points. it turns out they're new york and DC only, which is a bummer for me. but if you're ever in the area, my god, you will not regret getting anything with the fried cauliflower or falafel in it. excellent diversity of fresh and flavorful food in generous portions....
