“Very tasty food specially Chicken over Rice“

“My husband and myself popped into this gem of a place for a quick happy hour. Antonio served us the most delicious and chilled to perfection martinis that kept us talking about them for days. All of the appetizers we tried were exceptional, the baked feta was mouth watering. It may have been our first time but certainly will not be our last.“

“Exceptional Service. Culinary Excellence. Our dining experience at JOON was extraordinary, made even better by the exceptional service from our server, Yacine. His thoughtful recommendations, warm demeanor, and perfectly timed attentiveness made for an unforgettable evening. Even as the restaurant got busier, Yacine maintained his focus on us— a warm and welcoming touch that elevated the entire experience. Thank you! As fans of Persian cuisine and frequent shoppers at Yekta Market in Rockville— having recently tried our hand at making Persian dishes like Fesenjan at home— coupled with all of the culinary accolades— we had high expectations for JOON. It not only met but exceeded them. Mast-o Musir, yogurt dish with Persian dried shallot and rose petal, was exceptional— more elevated and nuanced than any we’ve had. The mushroom Khoresht stew with white truffle was another highlight, offering perfectly balanced flavors something hard to do with white truffles and a satisfying richness, complemented by the perfectly crunchy Tahdig, iconic golden rice crust. The braised lamb shoulder which Yacine suggested was the undeniable highlight of the meal I which each dish was excellent. Tender and flavorful, it was paired beautifully with texture. It’s a signature dish that rivals the best we’ve ever had, bringing to mind the legendary Bo Ssam pork shoulder from David Chang’s Momofuku— bold, unforgettable, and expertly prepared. The Gormeh Sabzi, short rib stew with its delicious sour depth, was excellent but couldn’t quite match the lamb’s showstopping brilliance. Two very minor points. While the food and service are exceptional, the main dining room lighting would benefit from dimming. A water filtration water system could make a big difference as well. JOON has firmly secured its place as a must-visit dining destination for us. We can’t wait to return and explore more of the menu.“

“After a hard day of work, I went to treat myself to eating Cava - Lee Hwy, I like it because the food is fresh and delicious. When I arrived, I was delighted to see the smiling and friendly staff, but I especially want to thank Diosesis for always giving all customers such a pleasant, smiling and very respectful welcome. Thank you very much for the excellent work you do.“

“recently i attended a wedding that was catered by Anatolian bistro. the food was wonderful! very traditional Turkish options. highly recommend for dining or catering. thank you - dj Theo“

“Delicious food. We wanted a bite after a hike in the Great Falls area and this sounded like a good place to try. There was plenty of free parking and we were seated immediately upon going in. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, with a very relaxed atmosphere. Everything on the menu looked so good so we started off with some appetizers, both of which were delicious. I loved the Shirazi salad, which was delicious and refreshing. The kashk e bademjoon had a great flavor profile and went wonderfully with the pita bread. For my meal I had the chicken shawarma, which was probably one of the best I’ve had. The chicken was so moist and flavorful, with just a hint of cardamom. My wife had the apple orchard salad, and son the gyro Greek salad. This place is a must-try.“

“Delicious food and friendly service“

“Is the best Mexican food i ever tried. I used to eat from cava 3 or 2 time a week.

“Absolutely my favorite lunch spot in Fairfax. I’ve been eating here for 5 years now and the place is like home.. friendly and loving staff with the Absolute most delicious kabobs (IMO).. The only downside here is I live in faqr co.“

“I have gone twice and both times have been amazing. There is a good variety of flavorful food to choose from. I love the chicken kabobs. They are so good and juicy. But my favorite is the rice. I'm not familiar with all the names but every type I've tried has been good. On top of the great food is the friendly and welcoming staff. This is some of the best kabob I've had in the area. And to have a buffet lunch is a dream come true.“

“Me encanta cava!! Lidia es muy servicial y amable“

“We recently hosted a dinner and chose the stuffed lamb from Beirute Butcher. Not a single guest left without praising it and thanking me for this choice. The lamb was absolutely exceptional, tender, flavorful, and beautifully presented.

Mr. Ahmad, the owner, along with his family and team, deserve all the credit. They are decent, professional, and very respectful, making every interaction a pleasure. This is not my first time as a customer, and it certainly will not be my last. For years, I have been ordering from Beirute, whether it is small meals, fresh meat. frozen pastries, or specialty items,and every time the quality is outstanding. For anyone craving authentic flavors that bring comfort and remind us of home, Beirute Butcher never disappoints. Their commitment to quality and customer care is truly remarkable. Respect ✊🏼“

“I come to this hookah bar pretty often, and the service here is always top-notch. Nina is absolutely amazing. She remembers my order every time, checks in without being overbearing, and just makes the whole experience better. Zaid also helps when Nina is busy and is as friendly as possible. Siddiq, the hookah guy is on top of it always and makes sure my charcoal never burns out. It’s rare to find that kind of consistency and genuine care in service these days. The atmosphere’s great, the hookah’s solid, and the staff really make you feel like a regular. Easily a 5-star experience every visit.“

“I’ve been to a couple of Afghan Kabob restaurants but this one was truly really great and tasty. The food was delicious and the customer service was the best. I highly recommend trying out Fairfax Kabob!“

“We noticed and stopped at Thelo spur of the moment. The proprietor came forward and we shared our trip to Santorini. My Pork Gyro was literally the best I've ever had. Marvously moist, beautiful flavor, caramelized bits, fresh pita, wonderful!
We shall return!“

“Everything about this place is amazing!“

“I had a great experience coming here, Vivian was super helpful and patient with me as I was picking my topping. Would go again!!“

“We love Mezeh restaurants, so when visiting Tysons for the day we stopped into this one. It’s actually connected to the mall via Bloomingdale’s.

Service was great, helpful, and friendly. The selection was excellent and all items were fresh and appealing looking. Their chicken kabob was really nicely done and tender! That shuug sauce was spicy, but flavorful!

Highly recommend stopping in for good, healthy options!“

“First time recently at Ivy and I must say, what an experience. Food and ambiance were excellent, staff was friendly and knowledgeable.

“Excellent food and service!!!“

“Very cool setup, interesting to experience. Awesome food, drinks, and staff!“

“Great spot for delicious food! I love that they’re open until late. The owners are so personable and have great service.

Everything is delicious! We usually order a little bit of everything on the menu and it’s always been on point! Highly recommended“

“Might actually be better than Cava. The chicken chicken which was recommended to me by the server was better than I had thought. Super filling!

Just a heads up if you chose a signature plate they will make it without any additional inquiries. I thought I was being ignored after suggesting it but she was speeding along and I was an idiot assuming the worst.

Utensils are near the entrance doors along with napkins, grabs one since they aren't placed in the bag for to gos, or at least not for mine.“

“Hidden gem of a shop, literally as you have to navigate through an office building to get there. The presumably owner was wonderful and very helpful, he also emphasized his use of extra virgin olive oil for health. I don’t think the Chicken Msakhen I got was on the online menu, but so so tasty.

More of a takeout shop than a date night vibe, but it does have free WiFi! Please consider giving them your business, it’s so worth it“

“Pan AM Family Restaurant gets all stars from me. Their meals, especially their Gyro platters and sandwiches are the best across the State. I have eaten there many times with my family and friends, and have never been disappointed. I highly recommend the delicious food, fantastic atmosphere and especially the detail to service and smiles. It’s worth every dollar and you will leave happy, full and wanting to come back. Great job !! Great Food !! Great Service !!“

“Best place in NOVA for a gyro. Maybe it's nostalgia glasses but I feel like it used to be better, in any case still the best option. I remember plaka being involved with the community and it's been a while since I've been back but this is still a Vienna staple. Recommended lunch spot if you're in the area.“

“I would have liked to take a picture of the food but I ate it all 😅 staff are quiet ,friendly and very respectful. The food comes out decently fast and seeing the fresh pita spitting steam like a choo choo train was fun. All in all i think this place is a hidden gym and definitely deserves some love“

“I came here yesterday and had a wonderful experience. Fatma, in particular, provided outstanding service! She was kind, attentive, and very friendly. It’s such a pleasure to be served by someone so professional and warm. I can’t wait to come back again!“

“Best all you can eat during Ramadan! Authentic Syrian and Lebanese food for the serious foodie! Best kibbe! Well worth my taste buds!“

“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.“

“Great food!! very friendly!!!“
