“Been dining at Bacchus for decades and can't think of a bad thing to say. Occasionally service is slow but you could regard that instead as Middle Eastern "Leisurely" and enjoy your companions' sparkling conversation. They do eggplant several ways, all good. Don't miss the Bacchus eggplant dip. My DH thought he hated eggplant with a passion till he tried it - now he can't get enough! I'm a pescatarian and love small plates as I'm also ADD - this place is perfect for that. My family adore the shish taouk. And unlike many Mideast restaurants, you're not confined to Middle Eastern desserts - they've got a grand chocolate lava cake on the menu if baklava or knafeh aren't your thing. It's usually not noisy and the outdoor terrace is a grand place to sit on a fine afternoon or early evening once DST kicks in (like, now!). My only complaint is lunch ends at 2 and they're closed till 5, so if you want lunch, get there by 12;30. We once showed up at 1 pm and felt rushed by the staff. There, I found something to complain about! Thanks, Bacchus, for many great meals in pleasant surroundings and atmosphere. PS Fabulous ladies' room with mirrors that turn you into 100 images of yourself from every angle. :-)“
“Came in ordered a pizza and got it pretty fast. Freshly baked once you order (not just ready baked pizza sitting behind glass screen). And absolutely DELICIOUS. I dont leave reviews too often but that pizza was just so perfect. Craving a good cheesy fresh pizza (toppings all tasted fresh too, the meat and the veggies I chose), this is the place! :)“
“10 out of 10 out of 10. The food is so fresh and seasoned well. The restaurant is clean with a lot of seating. I ordered a falafel sandwich...So delicious and filling. They customized my sandwich and made it extra spicy for me. LOVED THIS SANDWICH. Perfect lunch spot! The staff are super friendly. Definitely a place I'll be returning.“
“Omg, District Falafel - what a real treat! As a Palestinian, I rarely eat at ME restaurants cause it's easier, less disappointing and always better to just go to mom's! My sister/friend introduced me to this place and I enjoyed it so much that I will even tackle the beltway to go into Bethesda from VA! The manager (M'hammad)/counter/table (Edwin?) staff were extremely nice, friendly, patient and just really kind! Pricing was quite reasonable & the same regardless of lunch/dinner - a real bonus. Easy parking, casual and just the right size inside. We had an amazing set of beautifully presented dishes before us incl: Adas soup (thinner than I'm used to, but SUPER delicious!), the falafel was so fantastic that I took a few dozen home to share w/family (will definitely try the spicier ones on next visit!), chicken shawarma & kifteh were nicely flavored & tender, and all the side dishes, hummus, baba ghannouj, salads, pickled items, pita bread hit the mark. Thank you for everything - Can't wait to come back!“
