“Wanted a quick snack before popping into work and SO glad I stumbled upon this NEW Afghan spot! Definitely gonna have to come back and try literally everything.. the portion size of the plates coming out the kitchen on top of the amazing smells like fresh baked naan, I already told the owner to expect me weekly!! The owner, Sharif (hope I’m spelling that right) was super kind, enthusiastic and excited to share his hard work with everyone after a year long wait. I’m excited to see what else is in store for this authentic, delicious spot!“

“Was good experience .. we had good time & we enjoy the food“

“Delicious food! We got two different wraps with the mixed meat. Full of flavor. And OMG the fries were perfect! We both tried the strawberry basil cocktail. Great balance of sweetness and very refreshing. The service was great and we enjoyed talking to the employees. Great atmosphere. We sat on the patio. And the decor is fun with the records and Virginia artists and famous people all around.“

“Very nice place to eat. Quick service. Delicious .“

“From out of town and came to Ocean8 Hookah Lounge and had an awesome experience! Ended up going multiple times! The hookah was top-tier and the food was fresh. If you're in VA and looking for a great vibe with quality food and smoke, this is the spot!“

“Love Corsica so much! Joe is the perfect bartender great mix of pleasant personality, sense of humor and comfortability behind the bar. Very easy vibe and amazing drinks and food. Nicolas is the sweetest server with such positive energy. One of the best additions to RTC in a long time. Bolognese, lemon bucatini, mushrooms, meatballs and arancini are favorites. The frozen Citron Sunrise does the trick on a hot summer day.“

“Good service, great authentic Mediterranean food, amazing lemonade. I was floored when the lady came out and gave us FREE REFILLS on the lemonade. The presentation of the food was authentic and charming, the tzatziki and spicy sauce were great. The best Mediterranean food I’ve had in the DMV“

“We were very hungry and wanted a quick bite. We searched and found Kabob. We are so glad we found this place. The food is reasonably priced and the food is delicious. We recommend Kabob to anyone who is found of great food. Kabob - keep up the great taste and great service.“

“The best Mediterranean food I’ve ever eaten in my life!! The portions are so big and everything is homemade!“

“Tasty Halal cuisine available at Leesburg Premium Outlets. Our order included samosa chat and Philly cheesesteaks. The samosa chat featured a well-balanced mix of spices, offering just the right amount of flavor without being overwhelming. It was perfectly textured, neither too soggy nor too dry. The Philly cheesesteak sandwiches were also delicious, boasting a cheesy goodness. You can find this eatery situated across from Old Navy, adjacent to Aeropostale. Highly recommended; I'll certainly be returning.“

“Not only is the food great, but the owner treated us like guests in his home rather than just customers. We had a larger group and showed up late for our reservation by mistake, and it was no issue at all. Yannis regaled us with stories from his life as a restaurant owner and offered us some life advice, too, haha. It's really nice that places like this exist even in random suburban corners of Virginia.

Also, the menu is large so there is something for everybody. The food came out fast and tasted great. Our group had the pork gyro, lamb gyro, vegetarian gyro, and souzoukakia. Everything was perfect.“

“My wife and I use this as our go-to place when we need quality food that is not junk and is a great value. The orzo is my personal favorite but honestly there hasn't been one dish I've tried that has been disappointing. I am genuinely confused by the people who give this place one or two stars. My wife loves the pork chops. They held up really well even after being delivered. I had the gyro and it was amazing. This place is consistent and if you're looking for a hidden gem in a sea of awful takeout, this is it.“

The meat was perfectly cooked, the appetizers were fresh and flavorful, and the portions were generous. A special thank you to Suhail for the excellent, friendly service, which made the experience even better. We will definitely be back and highly recommend this place!“

“Awesome Place and Environment!! Great Staff, Service and Really Good Food 🔥 Highly Recommend 🥵💰“

“First visit to this chain. Was not disappointed. Went for an early lunch shortly after opening. Food was very fresh. I got the combo 2, which was beef and chicken, with a mix of salad and rice. Great size portion to price ratio. Meal came with some sort of naan/flatbread, some cucumber sauce and some salad dressing. My lovely girlfriend ordered a big old falafel salad, that I'm told was good. No drama.
Staff was nice, food was ready in a reasonable amount of time, nice selection of teas, juices, fountain drinks. Did not really consider apps or dessert type stuff. Restroom was clean. I'd definitely dine here again.“

“Joana (I’m not really sure that was her name, but I hope so lol) was super nice! She was friendly, helpful, and made me feel very welcome. I really appreciated her service.

The food was also super good, me and my mom will definitely come back!“

“Wait—huh? How does this place have such low review #s? This is the greatest thing I’ve had at this price point in a long time. Shoot—right across the street I went to another place and paid $20 for a bowl that was 80% rice noodles. I paid $17 here for a double chicken bowl that was chock full of healthy vegetables and extra protein like chickpeas and lentils. The portion size was absolutely phenomenal and someone who is a light eater could easily make 2 meals out of this. The pickled vegetables really made the taste pop. I stayed away from the tabouleh and couscous bc I’m GF. I just thought it was great for a healthy, quick service option but I’m visiting from out of town (Colorado) with much more limited options. I guess people have a lot more variety here but I’m giving it my honest 5 stars!“

“First time trying Mezeh and I’m so glad I did! The manager, Carlos, recommended I get the bowl with both Chicken Shawarma and Steak Shawarma, and wow it was amazing! The meat was super flavorful and tender, and all the toppings were so fresh. The pita underneath was warm and soft, and everything just came together perfectly.

You can tell they really care about the food and the customers here. Big shoutout to Carlos for the great recommendation and friendly service! Definitely coming back soon.“

“Best delicious juicy bbq in the area with the right spices! Rice is cooked to perfect taste, the piece of butter they always add on top can easily be scooped out according to preference! The assorted salads are a great addition and very tasty. The humus is better than that made in Lebanese restaurant. I recommend everyone in the area to try it 👍🏼“

“Chicken shawarma was exactly what I was craving for today, and it did not disappoint. The tzatziki dip and mint black tea were also delicious. An excellent choice for a cold day like today.“

“I was in heaven eating the yummy food! I love the ground beef & rice!“
