“We were worried getting out of a late meeting and we didn’t think we would be able to find a really good meal with it being after 9pm. We were wrong! We followed our GPS to this restaurant and the place was so welcoming. They let us sample before we decided on our meals and everything we tried was delicious and most importantly FRESH! To get a meal THIS good at this time of night blew us away! We will be coming back and will be using their catering option as well for a summer birthday party! Please try and return for another ! Visit the Annnandale location! And once you’re done with the delicious dinner, please save room for the crepes they have here!“
“This is the best food I’ve had in 2025. The food is absolutely delicious. I’m so glad I found this hidden gem. I order the salmon platter with corn added. All of the food looks good so you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. I will definitely be back.“

“Yummy chicken and pita bowl! The store was hygienic.“
“Went to Zaytoun with my family yesterday for an early dinner. We all got the combo platter which included lamb, chicken, rice, fries, and salad. The food had so much flavor! We will be back. My 2 year old loved the rice, chicken and lamb as well.“

“Extremely tasty. The spicy sauce is spicy as a warning. Like super spicy, but I liked it a lot. Will go back. I got the combo gyro and it was great and at an affordable price. The worker was kind and worked hard. I really like this food stand.“

“During my weekend stay in Washington DC I was able to visit the New York Grill twice.
Both times the food was IMMACULATE! I highly recommend the Lamb Gyro, and the fries were very good too!
Even with roughly a 20 Minute walk back to my hotel, the food comes out hot, and well wrapped, allowing the heat to stay within and keep your food warm for quite a while!
Overall, this was my favorite place we ate over the course of 3 days, out of about a dozen spots.
I DEFINITELY Recommend the New York Grill! Please patronize this great establishment, hell go 3 times a day if your budget allows!
I'll certainly miss the NY Grill while I'm back home in Western PA.“

“I was a bit unsure of what to order, but they graciously offered a sample. The food was delicious, even better than the restaurant next door, which was called California something. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, and they even let me customize my gyro. All of his recommendations were spot on! It’s a great place if you’re looking for a quick, easy, and affordable meal.“

“While visiting family they took me here for lunch, the place is so beautifully decorated and clean. The volunteer who took our order was super friendly and you could feel the passion as they spoke about the business and how their mission is to help the less fortunate. I cannot wait to visit again to drink more of the qaiymoq chai and eat the steak & cheese! 😋“

“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!“

“Absolutely delicious food -- had the Chicken over Rice Bowl with everything on it -- didn't know what I was getting into, but it was phenomenal. I stopped by randomly after driving by and seeing bright lights in an empty parking lot at 8/9PM on a Wednesday night. Only thing I didn't like -- absolutely BLARING loud music (drake) that I could barely hear the guy taking the order and he could barely hear me either. It was obstructive. I would go back again the bowl was, like I said, absolutely delicious.“

“Chicken and lamb combo over rice with chickpeas is delicious! You can tell this food is made with love. Those chickpeas are the best I've ever had! Most food trucks make my tummy a bit unhappy, but not this one! Plus it feels like a good way to spend my money. Supporting local hardworking kind people while getting a delicious meal out of it is a win/win for me!“

“This place is a true local gem. Food is of very high quality, and everything is consistently cooked to perfection. Their consistency is actually really impressive - I’ve never been disappointed by a single thing, and I’ve eaten A LOT of their food. But everything is so good, so I haven’t really made my way outside of the same few items from their menu. The difference is that the staff actually care about their customers, and take pride in their food. It’s not so common these days, and is a pleasant surprise. It’s the reason I will always eat there.“

“First time here on a Friday night. We had reservations that were mixed up. Even though the restaurant was expected to be full they accommodated the 6 of us. The owner came over to greet us. I told him that this was my first visit. (Everyone else had been several times) Oh then he proceeded to bring bite size samples for me to try. He then offered up suggestions as to what I need to have for an appetizer, main course and even dessert. Food bursts with flavor. But the real experience here was the service. First class. Thank you all for the dining experience.“
“???? the food here is absolutely delicious! ???? They were parked at Patriot Park North and I absolutely enjoyed the Lamb Gyro I had to have it twice this weekend! I also got the fries which were also amazing! They were cut and cooked fresh! The price tag is a little high but believe me it it is well worth it!“

“Always delicious traditional Egyptian fare. My Egyptian husband makes me drive two hours just to eat here. Although the food is delicious and healthy, my fav thing is the mint lemonade which they make by hand.“

“This is my one of my favourite local spots. I’ve been trying their food since they’ve opened and I’ve loved the consistency in the pricing and food. I’ve especially loved the newer plastic packaging, how flavourful each meal is, and how their service is exceptional. Food is made quickly and fresh; i highly recommend the lamb platter with extra white and red sauce.“

“Spot on for chapli kabab, skewered meat, stuffed bread, and eggplant without the dairy. The naan was too stiff and dry, drinks were good.
The indoor area is very pretty, though our group sat outside which was very pleasant.
Would go back.“

“This place is a hidden gem! Absolutely fell in love with their smash burgers. The flavor profiles all come together so well. The burgers are so well made. You can taste the quality and service is great as well. The owner is super attentive and puts out a fantastic product. They have seating for a few people inside and a couple of tables right outside the storefront.“

“Ate here for the first time today. Loved the lamb platter I had. Large enough it should have been 2 meals, but I liked it enough it was only one.
Service was quick even during lunchtime rush. I usually go to the “Halal guys” down the street, but will definitely swap over to Shah’s.
I can’t wait to go back to try their chicken and waffles!
Parking: If there is no parking immediately around the building, there is usually some just behind the building. This site used to be a Dunkin’ Donuts and the lot was always full. Sometimes disconcerting to maneuver around because it was so tight.
Shah’s did a great job cleaning up some of that parking madness.“

“Found this place while watching Peaks100 wife. She did not disappoint! This popular hole in the wall joint was pressure. My son and I ordered our food to go since the place was crowded but we ended up eating the food in the car because it smelled so good. We both ordered the OKC burger with the combo. At first I was complaining about the extra $5 for the combo given that you receive a can soda. But once my food was ready I stopped immediately. They give you so many freshly cut fries it’s worth the extra $5 for sure. The burger was fresh, seasoned well and the sauce was everything! We woke up the next day thinking we should drive back which was around 45 minutes from where we live. I would definitely return. Sorry no pictures this review. We ate in the car so I didn’t have any free hands to take a pic. You should definitely try this though. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥“

“It’s always SO nice to find a place like this. Just amazing tasty high quality food. You can tell the family that runs this place cooks with love. This lunch made my day. Definitely the best empanada I’ve ever had. 10/10 will eat here every single time I come to Georgetown.“

“Truly the Best in the Entire Region!
Lamb Karahi and Chicken Kebab served with fragrant Kabuli rice — simply delicious.
And the bread… you might think bread is just bread, nothing special. But no — this one is different.
Freshly baked, thin, and perfectly crispy — it instantly transported me back to the heart of Kabul. 🩵 Alhamdullilah!!!“

“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.“
“The best Chinese takeout in the area. Not the place for you if you’re looking for greasy salty saucy food. I’m 50+ and had to stop eating from nearby spots due to health. My lady lets me eat here I do not feel woozy night of or next morning after eating. Keep it up folks!
Dined in with my family and saw they added gelato now. I chuckled seeing a Chinese spot offering artisanal ice cream but thought it was really nice! They have guava, mango, coconut (which I got and was REALLY GOOD) and passionfruit and lucuma. Very densely packed for under $5 a pop. Something about a place having ice cream just brightens everything up.“

“This place was my first time ordering from a halal place and absolutely in love with it now the food do delicious lamb was absolutely amazing and blew my taste buds away. The chicken was juicy and flavorful the fries are wonderful the rice was absolutely better then any other place I’ve tried baklava strawberry cheese cake and felt like my soul transected to place of existence. 10/10 I’m ordering here all the time .“

“Never disappointed!! The veggies taste amazing, the bread is perfect/not overdone, and the chicken is always so moist. I wish there was a larger seating area, but not a big deal. If I could change anything, it would be the music. Doesn’t fit the vibe.“

“I have never left a review of anywhere. But I love Shawarma Taco with my entire being. I was given a sample of my meal as they were preparing it and that sample bite was the best thing that could have happened. And then came my actual Shawarma…Every bite was filled with every topping I ordered. I can die happy knowing I’ve had some of the best food to exist.“

“This was my first experience with this type of food, and it was good! Very filling, the single protein platter was more than I could eat in one sitting, and I'm a rather large eater. I would go back. However, I would say The Halal Guys are comparable to the Little Ceasars or Domino's of their place in the industry. If you want to play it safe with a commercialized version of Halal food, then this is it. Please don't take that as a negative, Little Ceasars has its place in the market & it's time for when necessary, and so does The Halal Guys.“

“Absolutely delicious - the best falafels I’ve had in a long time and my family said the lamb/beef combo was very flavorful. The ingredients were fresh and the service was very attentive. And I’m still dreaming of the chocolate peanut butter cupcake I had - so good!“

“Our first visit and we were impressed!
Steven was friendly and welcoming, taking time to walk us through the menu and explain the specialties. The chicken sliders and the fries were delicious. Generous portions and great value.
We also loved the atmosphere especially the local murals featuring Leesburg Pike, which gave it a fun community vibe. Everything felt clean, lively, and well put together.
We’ll definitely be back and recommend Dave’s Hot Chicken to our local school for a potential spirit night fundraiser at Glen Forest Elementary.“
