“Hello everyone! My name is Syed Anwar Hussain, and I'm sharing my experience at the best restaurant in the DC area. Today I went to the Bangladesh Embassy, and after I finished my embassy work, I started searching for a good restaurant in that area. Luckily, GPS found the restaurant. We went with my wife and my son, and we ordered three dishes. First, we ordered two dishes. We tasted the first two dishes; they were very delicious. Then we ordered another one. All three dishes were delicious. I really enjoy the delicious food. I have no words to describe how delicious the food is. I highly recommend this place.“

“I got the chicken over rice with lettuce, tomato, corn, and cheese on the side. It was like $15 with a drink. Tasted great and it was a decent amount of food ngl. Surprisingly good amount of seating in the inside. The lady serving was very friendly and attentive. Will be coming back“

“I visited this place on 03/15/26 the Spicy Wings was the best, I ordered the Brisket Quessadias...that was fantastic 😋, I ordered the Smoked Ribs...very tender, fall off the bone beef ribs. But was extremely greasy 🤷🏿‍♂️...watch ur Cholesterol with that entree. Place was clean, Staff needs a raise 💰 we offered a Tip, but the server refused it, he gave us great service 👍🏿 it has been in business jus 8 months...it already needs to expand seating, only 14 available seating in the Dining Area. Good problem to have & I seen Nooo...evidence of Cock Roaches 🪳 very clean Dining Area....Overall I give a 4 Star Rating for the Food, it would've gotten 5 Stars if more seating was available...it is a solid place for orders to go...yess, I would visit again...🤷🏿‍♂️😁“

“I've been to Naz's Halal all over the DMV and Chantilly always gets me right. I usually get the Chicken Gyro with white and hot sauce, but I changed it up and get the Lamb Bowl all the time now. They also have a reward system that gives points each time you spend and can get up to $10 off. Their service is always consistent and never had any issues at all!“

The food is excellent, the service is on point, and the overall vibe makes this one of my favorite spots. Hands down a 5-star experience every time. If you’re thinking about coming here—do it.“

“We stopped by since I love the lamb combo they have. Even my kids were stealing it off my plate and wanting to go back. If you like spicy I would recommend two swipes of the ghost pepper sauce, otherwise just get one if you like it kind of spicy. White sauce is a must. No ideas what is in it but delicious. No wonder why the sell that to take home.“

“When I first saw them, I wanted to try almost everything. The best authentic Pakistani taste I had since coming from Lahore. Everything was amazing and I highly recommended it.

Shami burger ,gol gappy ,sweets ,biscuits everything is so delicious.. well i am their regular customer now. Woodbridge is waiting for you“

I will def reach out to them again for more events and highly recommend!!!“

“**⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A True Taste of Pakistan!** Lakshmi Chowk is an absolute gem for anyone craving authentic Pakistani flavors. From the moment I stepped in, the vibrant atmosphere and warm hospitality made me feel right at home. The decor beautifully reflects Pakistani culture, adding to the overall dining experience. The food was exceptional! The Karahi was rich, flavorful, and cooked to perfection, just like the ones I’ve had in Lahore. The Biryani was aromatic, with tender meat and perfectly balanced spices. The Nihari was a standout—slow-cooked to perfection and bursting with traditional flavors. And let’s not forget the freshly baked Tandoori Roti, which was soft and complemented every dish beautifully. The service was top-notch, with the staff going above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable meal. They were knowledgeable about the menu and even recommended some hidden gems. If you’re looking for an authentic Pakistani dining experience, Lakshmi Chowk is the place to be. I can’t wait to come back and explore more of their menu. Highly recommended!“

“Have enjoyed the delicious dishes for several years. Whenever son from CA and son from TN come to visit they always want to return to Charcoal Kabob again. We miss seeing your family!“

“Probably one of the best chicken sandwiches I’ve ever had. Went with the Nashville Hot at the hottest spice level and a side of peri fries. Why did I wait so long to try this place?“

“One of the best middle eastern food in the city“

“This was one of the quickest 5 star reviews I’ve written. My wife and I were craving Kabobs for lunch and came across Mazar Kabob while in centreville.

Our experience was exceptional. Greated warmly and professional, the menu is robust and great offerings small and large. We order two combo Kabobs. While waiting we were offered complementary chicken soup with was delicious.

The atmosphere is clean, welcoming, and well-kept. The food itself was incredible! Portions were very generous, the meats were tender and perfectly cooked (not dry or overdone at all), and the flavors were bold, fresh, and well seasoned. Everything tasted authentic and high quality.

The manager also stopped by our table to check in on our experience, which really showed how much they care about their customers.

Highly recommend to anyone looking for amazing kabobs. This place is a standout. I will absolutely be returning!“

“Food is always great and the staff is friendly!“

“Nice food , Good customer service but ..... Pricy and 20% Dine In service charges (This needs to be put at Display just like 20% discount has been put for catering services at the door) ... it's on menu card though It isn't really a big deal but one must know before walking in what he / she is going to pay I'll still recommend it if one is craving for the taste of street food in Pakistan“

“Pollo Xpress has become our family’s favorite restaurant! I’d argue they might have the best burgers and wings in the area🤤🍔🍗! My son even cleans his plate with their chicken, rice and fries. Now, with a new breakfast all day menu (haven’t tried it yet, but can’t wait) added, I’m sure this place will stay at the top of our list! This high praise from a tough food critic. Give them a shot and you will not be disappointed!“

“Love that the guy behind the counter felt the need to share some ethnic tv show from his country with the customers. It had women wailing and dancing . Of course he had it turned up at a robust volume so all could enjoy. 🙄
The food is good and decently priced.
The sidewalk outside needs washed. Icky.“

“When I first walked in, I wasn’t too sure and almost turned around. I’m so glad I didn’t. The food and the people were absolutely amazing. I had the barbecue burger with fries, and it did not disappoint. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and cooked just right.
If I lived here, I would definitely be coming back regularly. But hey — there’s always tomorrow!“

“Probably one of the best chicken sandwiches I’ve ever had. Went with the Nashville Hot at the hottest spice level and a side of peri fries. Why did I wait so long to try this place?“

“I had a great experience at Charcoal Chicken. The food was flavorful and fresh, especially the grilled chicken which had a perfect smoky taste. Portions were generous and everything came out hot. Service was friendly and quick, even during busy hours. Definitely a solid spot if you’re craving Pakistani-style BBQ. I’ll be coming back.“

“Meal was delicious and service was pleasant. They were nice enough to give our kids a complimentary drink. The littles enjoyed the beef kabob and rice. The included Chana (chickpeas) with naan was equally delicious. The ground chicken kabob was spicy and flavorful.“

“We love ordering their family meal. It easily feeds four for a full meal and more. Quick, high quality, delicious, and healthy. We’re regulars!“

“Delicious! Great food and great service. Very clean. I’m looking forward to trying more menu items.“

“I had a wonderful experience at Grill Kabob thanks to Samia’s excellent customer service. She was warm, attentive, and made sure everything was taken care of with a smile. The food was fresh, flavorful, and delicious, exactly what you’d hope for in a great meal. Overall, both the service and the food made for an outstanding visit, and I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Goood Pakistani food. Has become a bit pricey post Covid.“

“I've been going to this place for well over a decade and it's easily the best kabob/gyro place in Northern Virginia. Tried others and they don't even compare. The chicken is fantastic but I almost always get one of the gyro dishes, it's too good to pass up, very filling and great portions. The owner is often there and is a great guy.“

“Nice place to hang out and delicious south Indian dishes. Visited multiple times with family. Just Love it“

“Last couple orders, they have given us hardly any bread. Not sure what has changed.“

“I really miss the Lamb Falafel it was my favorite protein. I like that the food is always fresh. I Don’t come as often because the Lamb Falafel is not available any longer. I still come once in a while because Leticia is alway very welcoming and friendly. Keep up the good work!!!“

“Ordered catering for 70 people and everything turned out amazing. Food was packed amazingly and ready on time. Comes in foil trays and was easy to put on heaters when I got home. Plenty of food was provided, very generously portioned. Everyone loved the food! Would recommend for future events.“

“Mezeh in Gaithersburg, Maryland is wonderful. Generous portions, the greatest variety of superb vegetable toppings, and the best falafel. Manager Mayra and employees are friendly, helpful, efficient.“

“The best biryani in this area ❤️“

“Spice Village was a lovely experience. The karahi was rich and flavorful, and the naan was fresh and perfectly soft. The chickpeas were hearty and comforting, and the karak chai was just right. Warm service and a cozy atmosphere made it even better. A place worth returning to.“
