“We had dinner here and the food was excellent“

“I've been coming to this location since 2001 (it was called Atilla's back then) and the sandwiches & salads are always good. Stopped in today and had an old favorite a gyro with some black olives - it was great as usual. Fast & friendly service as well. You can place your order online and come in and pick it up or just walk in and order.“

“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.“

“Les recomendados muy delicioso la tensión ni que decir Carlos el nuevo trabajador muy amable“

“Put a lock code for your restroom. Outsiders walk straight thru and occupy restroom while customers can't become of a none customer sleeping inside. And for God's sake. I have been visiting this location for the past 2 months. Fix the second restroom..wth u waiting for“

“Just an incredible restaurant - amazing food out of this world our server was simply impressive with one month on the job - I can't say enough good things about him. I will always be back !!!“

“Did the cocktail mixing class. Great food and awesome experience!“

“We sat at the high tables, because we didn't have a reservation, but we received great service. The bar area gets crowded so we were lucky to get a seat and experience their 3 course meal. Every course was delicious and felt like a treat.“

“Just ate there last nite b4 a show at Birchmere (their food not so great!). WONDERFUL, AUTHENIC Greek fare. I had the lamb/beef gyro and gal had falafal (sic?). Both delicious, highly recommend it!“

“In recent years there seems to be a proliferation of small-plate Mediterranean restaurants. But Yayla remains as one of the best, reasonably priced originals in northern Virginia. There is a pleasing range of mezzes, salads, entrees hot and cold, flat breads, spreads, etc . I had a Yayla mule, 3 spreads, lemony rice soup and superb shrimp. Friends chose a range of other dishes. I can guarantee whatever you choose, you won’t be disappointed. Everything is flavorful, fresh and beautifully presented. Wait staff and servers are friendly, attentive, knowledgeable and not obtrusive. Don’t miss the nice selection of creative cocktails, wine variety and desserts. Continued success and best wishes for this popular bistro!“

“Awesome salads“

“I recently visited Kabob Station, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The atmosphere is clean, welcoming, and perfect whether you’re dining in or grabbing a quick meal.

The food is absolutely delicious. The kabobs are perfectly grilled—juicy, tender, and packed with authentic flavor. The rice is fluffy and well-seasoned, and the sides like salad and sauces complement everything beautifully. You can really taste the freshness and quality in every bite.

The staff were friendly, respectful, and efficient. They made sure our order was just right and provided great service without any delay. It’s clear they care about both their food and their customers.

What I appreciated most was the consistency and value. The portions are generous, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality you get.

Overall, Kabob Station is a fantastic spot for anyone who loves flavorful, authentic kabobs and great service. I highly recommend it and will definitely be coming back!“

“Delicia de comida, recomendado al 100%“

“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.“

“The gentleman at the counter had wonderful customer service. We paid for our food even brought it to the table, which was very nice. It felt like fine dining, he gave us a bit of conversation and seem like such a pleasant gentlemen. I enjoyed the food. It was amazing. I eat every drop and the baklava ice cream with everything took a friend for the first time. My friend said he enjoyed it, and we will definitely be back again. I recommend this place highly if you love Greek food and gyros.“

“Elegant setting. Beautiful decor. Stellar service. Innovative and delectable cuisine. Bonus points for mocktail options.“

“The best Turkish restaurant in the DMV area. The staff are friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend putting Adana kebab inside the lahmacun and eating it like a wrap — absolutely amazing. I brought my friend from Montana, and he said he had never eaten Turkish food this delicious even in Turkey. Definitely worth visiting. Highly recommended!“

“Great Falafels! Nice atmosphere and very polite personnel“

“The food was fresh and delicious! The service was excellent and the owner came around to talk to us! He was so sweet!! He made us feel like family! I will definitely recommend this lovely establishment to my family and friends! I should have taken more photos, but I forgot- it was as sooo goo!!“

“Excellent service, terrific food!“

“Hi! I went to Cava in Burke today ! The food was delicious! And fresh! Also, the staff members were very friendly and respectful. I had the chance to ask some questions to the manager while I was waiting for my pita bread, and she nicely answered my questions ! Is good to see that we have hardworking people in the area !!! I will highly recommend this location to my friends,Thank you for your good service and for being open during this pandemic time.“

“lunch was delicious and the Gelato was even more delicious deliciouser! 😋 sitting outside across from Kennedy Center was a plus.“

“Is the best Mexican food i ever tried. I used to eat from cava 3 or 2 time a week. I dont like to Cook sometimes so cava the first choice come to my mind and in the same time its healthy and they have multiple things to chose to eat. I recommend the place if u didnt tried it u have something wrong in ur life :D�� one more thing after u put all your toping end it with Lemon tahini dressing yummy yummy no regretting“

“Best GYRO and Fries I have ever ever eaten in my entire life and I'm a senior citizen that has travelled to over 40 countries. I am so happy I decided to visit the GYRO factory. The portion is way too much for what you pay - amazing value. Crazy portions. Moreso, the taste of the food. Dang so so good. Truly, my mouth is watering as I type this review. The service was awesome as well. The environment is clean, bright, and welcoming. If you like Gyro you owe yourself justice to try GYRO Factory in Lorton. If you don't live in Lorton, then strongly consider that its worth a 30 minute drive to dine on there. For fry lovers, no fast-food chain can compare with their fries. My one thought after dining at GYRO Factory was what a shame it would be if people who enjoy GYRO's never experienced a GYRO Factory Gyro. What a great place and the person who cooked and served the GYRO was so kind.

Support your local GYRO place in Lorton and by doing so you will feel great because the food is 5 stars and so much more!

I'm having a GYRO from GYRO Factory tonight for sure.“

“The new kid on the block is a great lunch spot with reasonably priced and delicious food. I had the chicken shawarma sandwich and spoke to the chef. He elevated this basic dish to really nice levels and there's a unique spice blend that you won't find anywhere else. This is a tough location for a business but hopefully they can survive.“

“I travel a lot and this it’s my second time at cava I love the food and all the True members I really polite. They help me a lot explaining men about a new Shawarma chicken. I really love it. I spoke with the manager. He was really kind name is Carlos. He offer me a water cup, which is really cool. I recommend this place.“

“Fresh natural decor, open layout and engaging music. The small pita included perfectly spiced protein and fresh veggies with a wide array of veggy sauces and dressings. Great taste and value.“

“We had a wonderful breakfast this morning! The Beirut Breakfast, the Rose Water Latte, and Shaksura were all fabulous and the staff was lovely, friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!“

“great customer service even late night“

“Cava delivers vibrant Mediterranean inspired meals that feel both healthy and satisfying. Dips and dressings are the true stars, while some proteins, I love the grill steak or new salmon elevate it beyond typical salad chains. Expect a flavorful experience, thank you so much to her manager Keyla and her helper Wendolin for preparing the meals, very professional!!“

“Reasonably priced drinks and karaoke was fun!“

“I recently visited Raki Cafe and was thoroughly impressed by the exceptional customer service. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm smiles and a friendly atmosphere. The staff were incredibly attentive and went out of their way to ensure that my experience was enjoyable.

The goat meat and other tibs(steak) is amazing. I recommend you to try it.

“Cafe Monaco is absolutely the best kept secret in the McLean/Tysons Corner area.

I bought three (yes, three - don't judge me) ham/cheese/egg croissants and these might have very well been the best croissants I've ever had in the States. Crisp, wonderfully flaky, and perfectly buttered; these have become my go-to breakfast sandwich.

Honestly, you're doing yourself a disservice if you don't pay a visit to Cafe Monaco.“

“We just had my sons’ wedding rehearsal dinner at Villa Yara and it exceeded our and our guests expectations. The venue is superb, the food amazing and the staff amazing. This was one of those dining experiences you ask yourself how have I missed this place? There are not enough words to describe the excellence of Villa Yara. Do not overlook this restaurant for you will miss a great dining experience. Scott G.“

“Amazing. Amazing. Amazing.“

“I’ve been to this location several times, mostly to grab dinner. Once I sat outside and that was nice, too. This time, as is typical, the staff was personable, efficient, and everything was available to build my own bowl. I like that they accommodate requests to put the braised lamb in a separate container. I like my dressing on the side as well. Overall, I’d recommend this CAVA location. If you’ve never had CAVA, the food options provide a lot of protein and vegetables, which is high marks in my opinion for fast casual.“

“Superb dining restaurant!“

“Everything was amazing. An authentic Turkish and Greek restaurant where you can enjoy a wonderful lunch or dinner in a clean and comfortable atmosphere with your family, spouse, or friends. They add their own special touch to the well-known traditional flavors — and that truly makes the difference.“

“Can’t believe I didn’t try this place sooner! Calamari tasted a lot better than it smelled (and in fairness it could’ve been the marinara I smelled). But idc, was super delicious. And the bartender and owner were super friendly.“

“I’ve been getting kofta, kebab, makdoos, kibbeh, and other items from Beirut Butcher for 10 years. It’s still my favorite place to get authentic, handmade food in the DMV area.
The staff are always kind and helpful.
Highly recommended! 😊“

“I was welcomed by Lady Erika and coupled with a Perfect Steak & Cheese pita today. WOW, what a superb delight. I highly recommend their cuisine and customer service. Great place to dine, but with it being so cold today, I dashed home to savor their pita. Talk about being good; I could not stop til it was all gone! Oops, let's keep that just between us (smile).“

“I am mad I did not try this earlier. I will be back. I got the Greek feast.
Pork and chicken skewers moist and tender. Gyro was amazing. The fries, I love what you did with the crunch on the outside. Rice is salted nicely. Small grain though... I mean that is nitpicking. I will be back 100%
It took like 20 minutes to prepare, so call in if you are in a rush. The taste and quality is worth it.“

“My first visit to Cava was an absolute win, and I have to shout out Javier for making it even better. Walking in for the first time can feel a little like “okay…what do I do here?” but Javier made the whole experience smooth.

He was super patient, incredibly informative about what pairs well together, and genuinely friendly the entire time. Not once did I feel rushed, which is rare when you’re clearly a newbie holding up the line just a little bit.

Thanks to him, my bowl turned out amazing and I left feeling like a Cava pro. If every first time experience was like this, I’d be trying new places way more often. Give my guy a raise!“

“Love this place!! Food is always delicious and fresh .“

“Great food and price! The staff is very professional and friendly!“

“The food is amazing! The Pita House is one of my favorite restaurants in Old Town! I have never been disappointed.“

“Great spot for food in Ballston. I come here for when I want a healthier meal, and want to load up on extra protein. The crew always greets me before making my bowl and the ingredients look fresh. Daniel was working the register when I ordered and helped me with my rewards. Thanks“

“The service here we received from the moment we walked in was excellent. Sherman did a great job caring for us the entire night.

We ended up ordering the bottle of Chianti, octopus, lamb special of the day and the black truffle pasta. The black truffle pasta is a must! It was so rich and delicious. The orange caramel flan was also the best way to end the night.

+ there was a live musician playing the entire time and that was simply a great touch.“
