Middle Eastern Restaurants near Alexandria, VA

“I love everything that Omar’s have to offer! I usually order online to pick up and it’s always ready on time or earlier. The platters are filled with delicious flavors. My favorite is the lamb platter and add chickpeas or corn. Pickled turnip is also great. Omar signature sauce + white sauce combo is so good I can take a bath in it!!! (JKJK) The employees are always helpful, working hard to get that fresh food out. This is our weekly dinner spot and I am lucky that they are right down the street from my house!“

Very nice and very humble man that’s the reason we visit zaytoun more frequently. Food is delicious no doubt but Abid customer service is made it more special because he is very kind to everyone.“

“Great middle eastern food. Thriving for the original taste. Employee are ok. Manager is a nice man. I been visiting this restaurant for a long time. Today the Sunday, I passed by around 4:30 pm. I was annoyed, I was planning to eat some chicken. The door was close as soon as I tried to open. Don’t know if it was intentionally or not based on a history of bad behaviors by this manger. Anyway thanks.“

“The food is amazing! The Pita House is one of my favorite restaurants in Old Town! I have never been disappointed.“

“Dining at shababi was an absolute delight. I came to celebrate after I finished taking my board exams and I couldn’t have chosen a better place. To start they brought some hummus topped with shredded beef and beat spread, which the former was my favorite. They later brought the roasted chicken which had been marinated for 48 hours plus. Every bite was so flavorful. As this is a pop up I recommend you go soon and get a feel for Palestinian food“

“Absolutely incredible experience! The food was rich in authentic Afghani flavor, perfectly seasoned, and beautifully presented. The service was warm and attentive, making us feel genuinely welcomed. You can tell they take real pride in both the taste and quality of their dishes. Easily one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a while — highly recommend!“

“Delicious food!!! Yummy 😋“
