Incredible food, large portions, for low prices (well relatively compared to most of the DMV) will be coming back often!

The shawarma sandwiches are outstanding. They come with gratuitous amounts of fresh parsley and a little pile of pickled turnips. You can make both the chicken and the beef into cheesesteaks, with feta and mozzarella, which was delicious. The fries were perfectly crispy, the hummus was rich, and the entire place smelled amazing. There is zero ambiance in this little shop tucked away in a warehouse park, but the food is stellar.

The shawerma sandwich is out of this world - they make the bread fresh in house + add their own little touches to the sandwich that makes me want to frequent this no frills authentic Lebanese restaurant on a weekly basis. Tablouleh is delicious and made how it's supposed to be made! Tons of lemon juice.All the manoushes I tried hit ye spot, I love the thin bread the restaurant uses.Cauliflower shawerma is delicious and great for anyone avoiding meat.Kibbeh is one of my favs in town.I also like that they have a small retail area where you can authentic Mediterranean goods from the homeland

The Deliciousness of the Mediterranean in a fast food place. I had the falafel wrap with zatar pita bread and hummus with pita chips. It was fresh, warm and comforting. The hummus was smooth and velvety. I had spent some time overseas and the taste brought back the memories of eating in Dubai. I got to taste the Zatar fries were very delicious and not over seasoned. . The service was very hospitable and welcoming. They have healthy portions. You can sit down and eat or take out. The owner is great!! Highly recommended. One caveat, you have to catch them during the week. Next time I am going to get the shawarma!

If you are originally from the Middle East countries or an American original who crave for the Levantine food, RoRo's is one of the best places to visit. Their artisan subs and/or meals are marvelous. They offer D/I and carry out and the place is handicap accessable while it is located off the noisy streets. The staff are customer-need oriented. They welcome you with the famous Lebanese hospitality habits.

I am Middle Eastern and I can tell you the shawarma sucks. I ordered a takeout. After I drove all the way home. The shawarma is cut like a steak and it has no flavor. The meat portion is very small for how much they charge. No tahini sauce on it despite requesting it multiple times. The plate was just veggies and that's it. Kebbah is ok, meat pie was fine. I won't be coming back to this place, there are way better middle eastern or Lebanese options in the area.

I absolutely love getting the fatoush salad with chicken shawarma here! Plus it comes with these breads that I love it’s always fresh and well made. And try the garlic paste it’s so good! I come for lunch all the time.Vegetarian options: I’ve tried their falafel and it’s really good it tastes authentic

We just moved to the area from Buffalo, NY and were searching for a family owned Lebanese place to replace our favorite one back home, and let me tell you Roro's did not disappoint! The service was AMAZING, he helped us narrow down our choices because everything looked SO YUMMY. He also heard us chatting about wishing we ordered the chips and hummus to try and he brought some to us while we waited for our mains! Everything was extremely flavorful and authentic, plus it was the first affordable meal we've had since moving here! Definitely recommend for a great lunch.

Just ordered the mix plate and hummus!!! Very good food. Cooked perfectly. Full plate!! Very filling and does not make you feel like you ate a lot. Highly recommended.Parking: No issues for parking. Close to the business. Wide spaces available.

We came here after going to Balian Springs as it was on our way out, and we all really enjoyed our food. It is a little hard to find as the sign is on the door which is different from the name on the building, so we missed it the first time. It's in a more industrial part of Alexandria as well.It seems like a family owned restaurant which is nice, and they have some grocery items in the front with some refrigerated items and bakery items like baklava. Their menu has various salads, pitas, platters, and flatbreads. I got the falafel platter and it was delicious. The falafel was very crispy and tasty, the pita bread was fresh, and they gave a good amount of food for the price. Everyone enjoyed their food and the food came out quickly. I'd definitely come back here next time I'm in the area!

Amazing Lebanese fair. I would easily pay double. Fresh, made to order and delicious. This is definitely a hidden gem. Must try their kibbe and homemade falafel.

Grandma's Tabbouleh, chicken, and Za’atar pie are all fresh and delicious! This awesome family owned business is tucked away in a shopping plaza but worth the search.
