Did not expect this! The bastille was like dessert for dinner. It was amazing!
The shawarma sandwiches and platters both had so much flavor. Highly recommend this spot. It may not look much on the outside, but the service and quality of food is sublime.
Will definitely come back

Absolutely delicious food! This place is a small restaurant in a non-descript little building and from the outside you may overlook it. But inside you will be welcomed and made to feel special. There’s some free parking immediately outside the restaurant but should not be an issue. My wife and I tried this place in an effort to try something new and were glad we did. Everything looked so good that we ordered more than we would be able to finish, but happily left with leftovers. For starters we had zaalouk (my wife’s favorite), fettoosh (one of my favorites), a small chicken bastilla, and chicken tangine with lemon and olives (so delicious), and hot mint tea. Everything was delicious and the owner was a great host. This place is a must try, but I recommend going family style as there’s a lot of food.

Excellent Moroccan food! I highly recommend the chicken shawarma platter! The owner was very friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. One of my favorite casual places in NoVa!

Fettoosh is one of those restaurants you fall in love with at first sight, the friendly waiters and the cozy atmosphere make for a great expedition.
Went in on August 19, to order the lamb kabob plate for $18.95 as well as any drink from the fridge for $2.75.
The wait did not feel long as there was music playing in the background, every table gets complementary pita bread (just like how Mexican restaurants do 😂) which was also good.
Once we got the food we dug in, the lamb was a bit rough, but apart from that the salad complimented it. The rice was decent, and the hummus served for both the pita and the lamb chops.
At the end the owner gave us complimentary tea and I'd say Fettoosh was one of the most welcoming restaurants I've been in on the D.C. area.

Landed here on a Friday evening and it was so worth it. It wasn’t crowded but soon customers started filling in. At the outset, the Moroccan mint tea was so refreshing. Then, for appetisers, I tried the Sfeha-Bi-Lahmi and it tasted like little pockets of heaven — the meat inside the dough was tender and was served with hummus and salad and a side dip. Then, we got the chicken tagine with lemon and olives and the lamb couscous. Both were amazing — the lamb was so flavourful and piled onto a bed of couscous with steamed veggies and chickpeas. The chicken tagine was good with the generous serving of olives and french fries with moroccan bread. The server/owner probably figured out that it was our first time and was super kind and great to talk to. Honestly, I think, more than the food, some people just leave a mark with how they behave with kindness and love and that elevates the whole experience of dining. For me, this was that. :) All in all, loved the food, the service, and the warm homely atmosphere. 10/10 would go again. Also, the desserts!! I’m pretty sure I didn’t catch the name of what we ordered but man, it was good!!

Food is amazing and portions are great! Owner is very friendly
Is our go to with my Morracan husband. Food is wonderful, small and cozy eatery. Love the Red Soup and our favorite dish is the lamb with Prunes. We get the bread, the lamb , a bowl of soup. The lamb shanks feeds us both and we waddle out stuffed and content. Parking is a challenge. If needed we park across the street at the supermarket and walk over. Highly recommend to anyone in search of authentic Morracan fare, a delightful host, good prices, generous portions, and a cozy atmosphere.
