“We order two of the burger combos; a double cheese and a halal bacon cheese. Both were quite quite good and the portion size was more than adequate. My double cheese was hefty even and the fries were done nicely - a simple thing often done poorly.

We ordered though the restaurants website and the price was 13.50 each plus tax and tip. They also seem to have a rewards program.

The downside was that the order was delivered by Uber Eats and while the delivery driver was prompt I am not a fan of Uber Eats due to their inflated surcharges. Unfortunately, all the delivery services are have inflated surcharges while passing little into the drivers.

Overall we quite liked it and I plan on trying their gyros and rice platters in the near future.“

“Just flew in on a redeye and got take-out here. It’s literally 1:30, and really no other places are open. Huge shout out to the dishes. Everything tasted amazing, and the seasoning was really on point!! Definitely would recommend checking this spot out. I know I’ll adding this place as a go to late night study snack.“

“We spotted this cute little place while walking by and those red umbrellas caught our eye. We sat outside under the trees and had the tortilla and falafel, the food was absolutely amazing! The staff were super friendly and attentive too. Definitely worth stopping by! ❤“

“We had never tried Afghani food before, and I am so glad we did. The staff was so friendly and helpful with any questions we had. They recommended the Mini Taste of Arocostia for our first time. Everything was FANTASTIC!!! The food was cooked perfectly. The service was great! We never had to ask to have our beverages filled up, because they were already on top of it before we had to ask. They packed all our leftovers into boxes for us for our way home. We will definitely be going back!“

“Here’s a polished review you can post:

Absolutely love this place! The lamb and chicken are always cooked to perfection, the rice is flavorful, the salad is fresh, and the sauce brings everything together perfectly. Every meal is consistently delicious, and the portions are generous for such reasonable prices. It’s hard to find quality, taste, and value all in one place, but this food cart delivers every time. I truly hope they continue maintaining the same standards because they’ve earned a loyal customer.“

“Authentic Indian cuisine served with care—RASA never misses. A flavorful escape right in the neighborhood.“

“Cool concept it’s like +6 kitchens in 1. They offer a lot of different promos on social media. From Alana pizza, I ordered the burrata and the bacon pesto pizza. The burrata was really fresh and I enjoyed the pesto pizza. From Di Fara pizza, I ordered the pepperoni, sausage and meatball pizza. Not sure if it was dough or the pizza was undercooked, but I wish there was more of a crisp to the crust. I found myself chewing longer than expected.

Location was really clean and ordering via the app was easy. There’s plenty of street parking around the shopping center. Prices are high for the area. I would definitely be back to try some of the other restaurants.“

“The cashier was very polite, well managed and friendly. I order the lamb and rice bowl. I never realized a small bowl packed with so much flavor. The lamb is nice and seasoned while the rice compliments it. Let's not forget the yogurt sauce. It was rich and tasty. It feels like a dance party in my mouth. Assalamualaikum and see you soon. I give two thumbs way up. 👍“

“Awesome“

“I love taken the family there on the weekends. They have very good food in a child friendly environment. They always have something for everyone in the family that would personalize and enjoy.“

“Always the best food and the family that runs this restaurant is amazing. We like going places where you feel appreciated as a customer.“

“Some of the best halal I've ever had. I've been coming here for over a decade. The owner is an incredibly kind man, the food is delicious, and the price is unbeatable. Highly recommend. In case it's not obvious, this is a food cart, so there's no seating. That's not a negative, just something to keep in mind if you're coming for the first time.“

“It is really good good with good quantity Very friendly staff and good at explaining their menu Must try“

“I’ve ordered three times here since Nov 2025, and the halal indication is what made me curious to try the place. I’m happy Hunan Cafe is in the neighborhood! The food is good and clean, meat portions generous, the white rice that comes as a side was fragrant and tasty. I’m not left second guessing my order unlike other Chinese take out spots that can be too oily or use too much MSG. The service is reliable and friendly.

More details: I’ve placed over the phone with no issue and have ordered using the kiosk. They securely pack the takeout. I’ve earned a reward through Toast, the ordering app. There’s plenty of space to eat-in, if you’d like. I haven’t had an issue with parking, it’s a strip / plaza lot shared with other businesses. Dishes I’ve tried: spicy chicken wonton, lo mein, Taiwan noodle with veggie, Szechuan beef, and La Zhi chicken.“

“Wanted to try something new during birthday excursion. redditors recommended this place. finding out that they had a buffet helped me ensure I'd definitely find something I like. but I actually loved EVERYTHING they had in their buffet once I got there. had multiple plates. If I lived closer, it would've been a regular spot for me. hope to visit again soon. would recommend to anyone.“

“Went for desserts and it was the perfect way to end the evening. It was a bit loud, even on the patio area. Definitely cozy vibes. Would go back and try dinner, everything looked amazing. They had some great coffee/tea drinks that perfectly complimented desserts.“

“This is hands down the best burger I have ever had in my entire life. I am 36 years old and live for a good burger. Is it greasy? Yes. Will you need a ton of napkins? Yes. Is Jon’s sauce amazing? Yes. There’s even a bottle where you can get more of the sauce. The Coke machine was out of order, but there was a drink cooler full of everything you could need.“

“I came to Arlington for a business trip from Atlanta. I've been to the Ballston Food Court several times since I visit frequently. First time at Hal & Als and I ordered the brisket sandwich. the cashier who I assume is the owner was telling me about who he learned to make ribs from down in Atlanta. he was so hospitable too. he asked me to let him know what I thought. I completely forgot. everything was great. halal BBQ is a little different but it blew me away. I'll def revisit when I'm in Arlington again.“

“We had a great experience at RASA in Washington, DC. We ordered the Chicken Tikka and Lamb Kebab bowls, and both were delicious. The ingredients tasted fresh, and the meat was flavorful, tender, and moist. The bowls were well balanced, with plenty of flavor in every bite. A great option for fresh, healthy Indian food in DC.“

“I had the chicken kabob plate. In the picture there's white rice on the plate (under the naan bread). The chicken, both types of rice, and the bread were my favorite parts!! It was delicious and very filling. I didn't eat the salad (I don't eat salad, and I didn't know it came with the meal). I also tried the chickpeas, but I didn't finish them. They were ok.“

“Amazing customer service delicious food and fast service please go check it out“

“Service was exceptional and very catering to us. Sahid was so nice and even brought water for our dog while we were sitting outside, really caring. The food was really good and flavorful, loved the pita and the chickpeas. I could eat a whole bowl of chickpeas and pita bread. Would recommend to anyone looking for a good kabob place!“

“My husband and I are from out of town. once we tried Maiwand Grill, we make sure to stop by almost everytime we cone to Baltimore. Everything we have had from here is top quality and delicious.“

“Authentic Indian cuisine served with care—RASA never misses. A flavorful escape right in the neighborhood.“

“Delicious fresh food, beautiful presentation. Wonderful attentive staff, highly recommend. We will definitely return to enjoy an evening with music of Friday, Saturday or Sunday. Thank you very much.“

“First of my family enjoyed the food but the fries were spicy even as on the scale not hot.Secondly The atmosphere was fine.And lastly the service was very kind and I had no problems with them. In conclusion the place was very nice and cool themed and I’m sure to come back one day:)“

“I took my family to this restaurant they have a buffet during Ramadan and there’s plenty of varieties. The food is delicious and the employees are very sweet and helpful.“

“The pizza sauce is superior and the meat is pork-free, for those who have dietary restrictions. I haven't ordered anything I didn't like. Even the banana pudding was good.“

“Hands down the best shrimp fried rice in area! which IMHO one of two dishes to gauge the quality of any Chinese food place. If you can’t make really good shrimp fried rice how can anyone trust their other dishes, like sesame chicken, or brown sauce on other ones?“

“Clean, bright, and good vibes all around. A great spot to chill and enjoy some spicy food. Laid-back atmosphere with good music and a welcoming feel. The chicken was perfectly crispy and juicy—easily some of the best Nashville-style hot chicken I’ve had!“

“This is my favorite spot all halal & no pork! Them calzones are on point everytime!!!!“

“This restaurant was recommended by a good friend who is Lebanese-American. Having lived in Beirut myself for a couple years, I was immediately transported back to the wonderful restaurants around Beirut. I love that everything is served family style - we got the fattoush, cheese rolls, potatoes, and hummus. For mains we both got the shish taouk - of course this came with the yummy fluffy garlic! I also got a glass of Kefraya red wine. I miss Lebanese wines! The staff was helpful and pleasant. The ambience was quiet and welcoming. I would definitely recommend this restaurant for authentic fine Lebanese dining. Thank you for a delicious experience!“

“I had an amazing experience at Bamian restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious, and every dish was fresh and full of flavor. The staff were incredibly polite, respectful, and welcoming, making us feel comfortable from the moment we arrived. The service was fast, professional, and attentive. I truly appreciate the kindness and hospitality of the entire team. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great food and outstanding customer service. I will definitely be coming back!“

“If you’re looking for great food in College Park, Koti Grill is definitely worth a visit. The restaurant offers delicious, flavorful dishes, generous portions, and excellent customer service in a welcoming atmosphere. Whether you’re stopping by for a quick meal or dining with friends and family, Koti Grill delivers a satisfying experience that keeps customers coming back. The food is fresh, well-seasoned, and made with care, making it one of the standout dining spots in the area“

“I like their food, but they should make drinks mandatory with orders. Sometimes, for some reason, even if you select a drink, it doesn't appear on the order. And when you ask for it, they don't want to give it to you. And even when they have given it to me, they do it as if it were a courtesy. It's included in the price. If you explicitly say you don't want a drink, that's fine, but it's not always like that. And some employees should be more courteous in these situations.“

“They have a very unique specialty pizza with gyro meat that is amazing and unlike any other I have found. So yum. Also, when I had one bad delivery experience after usually good service, they went out of their way to make it up to me on the next order. Great pizza, (usually) good service, and a refreshing concern for keeping this regular customer happy. 👍“

“This mezeh is one of my most consistent weekly meals not only because the unique flavors and quality it offers, but because the consistent service I receive, which is top notch. Joanna, one of the staff members has always been the same, warm, patient person. If I come in late before it's about to close, it's super busy or anytime...she greets you with a smile and excitement to serve. As a DC native and ward 8 resident, knowing such a well run business is in my community is a gift.“
