Yafa Kabob is a standout restaurant located in a food court, described as a hidden gem. It is situated in the basement of the Reagan Building near the National Mall, making it a recommended, budget-friendly option after visiting museums. The food is consistently praised as amazing, delicious, outstanding, divine, and fresh. Specific menu highlights include the Kiibideh kabob, a combo with lamb, chicken, and kubideh kabob with rice, the chicken kabob, a falafel sandwich pita wrap, and an excellent gyro noted as the best in the DMV area. Meals come with generous portions and sides like amazing chickpeas and a spicy green sauce. The mango lassi is also fantastic.
A key feature is that the food is prepared fresh, with raw meat skewered ready to be cooked to order and pita bread baked on-site. The staff is noted as very kind, friendly, and providing quick, excellent service. The overall experience is highly recommended, with many customers stating they will definitely return.
