Umer was certainly that. Much love to the Halal Kingz!”

“Excellent evening at the Woodbridge, VA NYAJs yesterday! We were greeted by the manager Usy( I’m not good at names) who was working on clearing tables. We had a couple minute wait for our outside table. There were 3 of us and we ordered drinks and appetizers to share. Desi was our server. She was attentive and cheerful (not annoyingly so). The Bang Bang Shrimp, Potstickers and my favorite Ahi Tuna Wontons were wonderful! Cocktails as well! We all had been regulars up to about 18 months ago as the service was atrocious. So glad NYAJ is back. This is my 2nd visit in a month. Will be back soon. Kudos to the new manager and staff. Keep it up!”

Like a natural laid back vibe they gave off for my orders and that's the type of service I expect for the most part. So shout out to those two gentlemen for a job well done!”

“I ordered a Whopper the other day, and asked for everything on the side. I got just a Whopper Patty lol.

“The BEST Mexican food truck in the area! It is super authentic and always fresh. The food is amazing but in particular they’re made to order tamales. You have to contact the owners wife and get a minimum of 12 either chicken, pork, or rajas but trust me it’s worth it!”

“If i could i would give this place zero stars..but not an option. I was a new visitor to this establishment, and let him know that prior to ordering. Wanted the turkey (happy place) a drink and a scone. I get my meal and there is no turkey on it. So I got back and explained I wanted the turkey happy place. He said no you ordered the "our happy place". I said sir I even pointed to what I wanted on the menu. I didn't realize there were two items with the same name. He said that is your fault and you should know the menu. I said we'll I had let you know prior it was my first time here. He said I don't care if it's your first or 3rd you should know the menu. He said I'm not going to remake it., that's what you ordered. I said I would of never order anything with spinach because I'm allergic to it. He said so..I'm not remaking it! So not only did I have to wait a long time for thr sandwich, I couldn't eat it cause I was allergic to the ingredients. So I get back to my office hungry and upset to realize he didn't put the scone I paid for in thr bag. So I call and he says oh next time I will give it to you. No apology or anything. ..and next time, I paid for it this time. Very rude to new customers and would never spend my money there again. I don't understand why he was so rude. You think you would want to retain customers so they will do repeat visits.”

“Blooming chicken and sirloin, salmon, and their sides were amazing! The staff were as well! Even coming in late, they were more than happy to serve us.”

“Clean, bright, and good vibes all around. A great spot to chill and enjoy some spicy food. Laid-back atmosphere with good music and a welcoming feel. The chicken was perfectly crispy and juicy—easily some of the best Nashville-style hot chicken I’ve had!”

“Best filipino food in town.”

“GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE+1(8O5)-41O 5OO2 NO NONSENSE AND GREAT ASSISTANCE!!”

“This restaurant is definitely the best-kept secret in Woodbridge! We came once, and have never stopped coming. I came with a friend, and returned with my sons, and came back with my niece. I have eaten many South Asian cuisines, and none compares to this one. I can eat here all week and come back for the weekend. It's hard to decide on the best-tasting food here. The Rice Briyani is the best I've ever had anywhere. The lamb curry is so yummy! The chic peas are unbelievable delicious - melts in your mouth, we had to order extra to go after eating in! If you try the crab balls, you won't stop eating it. And the somosas - wow! Not to talk about the hot-fresh and fluffy naan! The menu is vast, and it doesn't matter what you order, it's finger-licking delicious. Plus the price is great, and the service wonderful! Anyone who goes there needs to salute the chef - he's cooking up "AMAZING"! WE WILL BE BACK!”

All the staff at this store are great, friendly and make you feel happy in a warming place. Excellent service and very very clean place!!

“Food was good but they cheap with sauce. You bought 1 order of 1/2chicken w/2sides you get the same amount of sauce for 4 orders of 1/2 chicken. This is in Bowie Md location. I guess I am not coming back there again.”

“Delicious custard. We love the flavors and all the special treats. We also love how supportive this small business is of their local community. ❤️”

“Coming back from a funeral service, all I wanted was comfort food. Kababayan did not dissapoint us! Everything was what I had hoped it would be.

Everything that my family has tried is amazing. we found the resteraunt about 2 years ago, every since this is the only place we get food from when we order out. Mr. Sam's resteraunt prime pizza and grill has become a house hold name for us and brings us together whether over a delicious meal or phone calls to tell what we tried today. Everytime we order and taste something great and new we will make sure we share the experience with everyone. Thanks again Mr. Sam! My mom of course loved the pizza she picked up and the specialty.”

“We had a late dinner tonight (Saturday). I enjoyed my Cobb Salad so much that I forgot my purse in the restaurant when we left. As soon as we arrived home almost 20 miles away, I realized my purse was missing and it was already 9:30 PM which meant the restaurant would be closing in half an hour. My husband jumped in the car and headed back while I tried calling the restaurant. After about 4 attempts calling I finally got through and was informed my purse had been found and I could pick it up the same night. My husband got there about 2 minutes before 10 PM and was handed my purse with all its contents intact. I am so impressed with the honesty and caring manner in which this situation was handled. Thank you 2425 Prince William Pkwy Crew! You're the best!!”

“I came to this place for the first time and was treated like family. I said I was hungry and I don't eat meat, I was told to sit down and I was brought out a platter of food and just felt that motherly love. Definitely recommend these kind people!”

“Best bubble tea around! Plus other great treats!”

“The best restaurant in the DMV area! amazing halal food and 10/10 customer service! �”

“The first time we went here we weren't impressed. However, one of the owners reached out to us personally and invited us back. We have been back twice. They are awesome! The food is yummy and reasonably priced. Staff is very friendly! Only downside is they now do not have fountain drinks (cans only) but I think that's just a sign of the time of living in a pandemic. Hopefully, when we return to a somewhat normal existence this will be back. Love Guapo's and highly recommend!”

“Our server, Jocelyn was incredibly sweet. She didn’t make me feel like somebody sitting down at a restaurant. I felt at home she made me feel like Family. The food was phenomenal
If you’re coming here, ASK FOR JOCELYN”

“Love the pizza, location and service!!!”

“I had the Lamb Curry at Shahi Kabob in Woodbridge, and it was absolutely outstanding! The lamb was incredibly tender, perfectly seasoned, and cooked to perfection. The curry had a rich, authentic flavor with just the right balance of spices that made every bite delicious. Paired with their fresh naan, it was one of the best Pakistani meals I’ve had in the area. The staff was friendly, the service was excellent, and the overall dining experience was fantastic. Highly recommend the Lamb Curry—I will definitely be back!”

“One of the best hidden gems in Woodbridge. I don't usually eat Indian food but this place definitely made me a big fan. Everything was so good and fresh, and the service was amazing. I ordered the Butter Chicken, rice, and garlic naan and it was all so delicious. I am definitely planning on ordering again!”

“I ordered the strawberry cloud matcha and my order came back quickly AND it was a quality, tasty drink. The interior is also well kept and clean, with a cute little gift shop as a bonus. Great place to stop by with friends after work. I will definitely be coming back!”

“The Ice and Custard are delicious. Wonderful selection of flavors. The store is always clean and the staff is friendly and welcoming. A great addition to our neighborhood shopping center.”

“It takes a bit for me to review, but after a number of pleasant visits, here I am.

The lattes are excellent and creative—the Butter Beer is my favorite. I love their philosophy on flavoring: they start light because you can always add more, but you can’t take it away—i.e., salt when cooking.

The staff is incredibly accommodating, too, and cheerfully made one of their previous drinks that wasn't on the menu.

The prices are nicely reasonable, making it easy to get a great drink within your budget, and my husband loves their suitably priced pour-over options.

The atmosphere is light, clean, and beautifully minimal. As a parent with school-aged kids and a toddler, this calm space provides a true, low-stress retreat—emphasis on the treat.

While they have just three locations and offer franchising, they completely avoid that overwhelming corporate-chain color scheme that hides their logo everywhere and advertises their wares and new things on your path to order. Something I never realized was subconsciously exhausting until it was scaled to a minimum.

It's a welcoming, child-friendly, local spot. So very glad it's not another copy and paste coffee place.”

“Shout out to Yasev for going above and beyond to make my kid's day. You were so patient and kind to them while ordering, they wanted to sample some and you were just so sweet to them. We really appreciated you making sure everyone you came into contact with had an outstanding experience.”

“Great Service”

“It has potential to be great! There is nobody managing the seating area to guide positioning of the line. So people are standing over you while you eat. Then everything is a bit over done! Like burnt for a croissant!”

“Great service and overall experience. The food was good, a bit too salty in my opinion. The portions are huge, so after we finished the appetizers we were already full. There was a 30 minute wait time, although once seated I noticed the place had several empty tables similar to where we were seated at. Not sure why … They don’t take reservations.”

“Went in for lunch today. First the place was very clean. No greasy floors or tables. Even the salsa bar was clean!

Ordered flautas and a torta. Both were delicious. Flautas perfectly crispy, beans were really good. Great presentation and a very good portion. My friend loved her sandwich as well. Sauces were varied in spice level so something for everyone.

Great service! Would definitely go back.”

“Several of us came in for lunch on a weekday and they were completely dead when we got there around noon. The dining was empty and it was rather cold inside too, then again it was snowing outside, so maybe that’s the reason for them not being busy and it being cold. The lady who helped us was friendly and was very helpful with the menu, which was very nice.

Their menu is interesting… it’s one of these Middle Eastern places with so many items on the menu that they feel the need to try to appeal to so many that they have Italian along with Pakistani and Indian/Afghan – this is NOT ideal, please don’t do this! You’re Pakistani, Indian, Afghan, etc – stick to that food, don’t try to sell everything for the extra business, it doesn’t appeal to those of us who seek the authentic experience and food, but nonetheless, I gave them a try and I’m glad I did because all the food we ordered (everything in Pakistani style, since I’m Pakistani and I appreciate when this food is done right) was pretty darn good!

We start with veggie pakora and veggie samosa, the pakora was spot-on perfect! The chickpea dough was seasoned perfectly and these tasted great! The samosa’s dough was incorrect, like pie dough, but the filling was great!

The entrées were pretty good – We tried beef chapli kabob – a little thin, but packed with flavor. Their veggie biryani was folded properly into the curry and had the beautiful colors it’s supposed to have. Flavors were decent as well. Chicken Karahi, one of my favs was actually spot-on! The sweetness of the tomato in it was perfect alongside the tastiness of the curry – great dish! Channa (or choli, not sure what they call it there) was decent, but lacked the depth of “stewed down” flavor that I like from chickpea curry that’s done with dried beans, this tasted/resembled canned chickpeas. Aloo Pollak was decent, but lacked that deep flavor that I love about saag or even a well-seasoned potato (aloo). As for their naan, it was GREAT! Nice texture, denseness, and doneness. I always ask for my naan to be non-cut and no grease, butter, ghee – I HATE this culture of putting that nasty, greasy stuff on naan, roti, or chipati – must be an American thing, because I don’t recall ever having this as a kid in Pakistan.

Bottom line – Very nice experience. They have tons on the menu and though I might not have though everything was absolutely perfect, 100% of the things I ordered were totally acceptable, flavorful, and when served with other dishes would make for a very nice meal. I’m not sure while this place has such poor reviews, possibly because they’re trying too hard by serving Italian food when they’re not Italian and they have no business doing this. Either way – stop in for decent Pakistani food, I definitely appreciated my visit.”
