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

50$ for a rotisserie chicken!? Are you serious. Good for you if people are buying it

Had Shababi in 2021 and it was one of best dinners I had all year. So many good flavors, chicken was perfect, loved the sides, and I had leftover sauces that I loved using on other food.

Some of best chicken I've ever had. Not only was it spiced and cooked perfectly (genuinely tender non-fried chicken is so rare imo), it is clear after one bite they must use a really high quality bird. It just tastes "organic" idk how else to describe it. Will be going back.

Great food. Well worth the drive from Reston. We're looking forward to what they do next.

I'm very picky about my food, but this chicken is the best I've ever had.

This is the best chicken dinner in the DMV! This is our third time having the chicken dinner, and it never disappoints. This time we also tried the m’halabia dessert — a delicious cardamom custard with blueberry compote. ?? So yummy! We love you, Shababi!

Marvelous meal. Chicken is a knockout but those sides wow. The crisp on the Aleppo cukes needs to be packaged and sold.

Great food! The chicken was awesome and super juicy even after we reheated it at home. I hope they stay in Alexandria!
This was such a special meal, an absolute treat. The chicken was seasoned perfectly, fantastical juicy, and the best chicken we’ve ever had from a restaurant. We live about 30 minutes from the location and conveniently the meal came with reheating instructions. To my surprise, the chicken reheated very well, the smells of the seasoning absolutely intoxicating as they heated. I wish them all the success. Such a fun interesting ordering model that a lot of places can learn from. You can really tell this was done with a lot of love and consideration.

My son likes this place we got the chicken Palestinian style on Sunday. I am Lebanese I really like this Palestinian style chicken. He told me the chef was at another one Lebanese restaurant before they should keep him it would be better. This food is delicious

Perfectly cooked chicken and hummus so good I could drink it. Their neighborhood drop service is fantastic, too. Coordinate a drop for your street and your neighbors will love you.

A phenomenal spread, with enough for another whole meal! Presentation for a delivery dinner is colorful, and each side has real meaning in creating a true Palestinian dinner experience. (The spices wafting through my car on the drive home were amazing!) My favorite part? The FLAVORS! I can't wait for next time. The crispy tender chicken, the crunch of spicy cukes, and the textural sauces had me mmmmm-ing through the mouthfuls!Highly recommended.
Perfect!
