Rahul Panchal: Good place if you are in downtown after 10ish as other closes down early but they are open till 11. We tried their rice over chicken and rice over falafel. It was not amazing but kind of satisfied your hunger. Staff was quick and helpful, lot of sitting table to eat in as well.
Jaime Moore-Carrillo: Fine—not great, not terrible. Ordered the gyro/chicken platter with all the fixings. Food didn’t taste terribly fresh (it may be worth noting that I dined here at 7pm on a Sunday). Not especially flavorful; on the greasier side, but not overbearing. Stomach began to feel heavy as I was eating my meal; will update review accordingly if symptoms deteriorate. Restaurant is pretty well kept. Staff is nice. Wouldn’t go again unless I’m in the neighborhood and not much else is open.
SKIER VLOGS: The food they provide is deliciousHighly recommended this place in Washington DC.
Ummay Aiman: My most favorite food in Washington!! Do try their chicken/beef combo with rice, pita bread and grilled beef/chicken. It’s so delicious. Staff are very polite and kind. Don’t forget to try their Baklava desserts— you will lick your fingers. I eat lunches there whenever I am in D.C. They have more than three outlets in D.C. I like to eat near the DuPont circle. I love The Halal Guys a lot. This is a convenient food shop for Muslim travelers.
S A: Disappointed. We ordered chicken and beef gyro and gyro platter. The food did not stay in my stomach for more than an hour. The meat looked too greasy and old. They had a very limited option on topping. They wanted to charge $1 extra for tabooli that looked like it’s been there for weeks. The chicken wrap was awful. Had no seasoning on it. The beef gyro was “okay.” There are plenty of other places to eat in DC. Save some time and go somewhere else.
M J: DISGUSTING! Baklava arrived with two bites already taken out of it!!! No way of knowing if the entree had been tampered also. Bag was sealed when it arrived via DoorDash. No answer to three calls to the restaurant. Absolutely utterly DISGUSTING. My daughter had to watch me spit out my food as I realized (late in the game, it was dessert). So messed up. DO NOT EAT HERE. I have eaten from here a dozen times this year and NEVER AGAIN.
NMD: A favorite location for delicious cheap food. Staff is always nice even when they have a full house. Really nothing but great experiences here, so I will be back. This place has a nice feel to it.

Photographia 56: Halal place in middle of downtown Dc. Walking distance from all great places and White House. Good decor and seating area. Place also gives food at certain times to homeless people. There is a video available over YouTube as well and you can google it. And this is excellent. Staff is very nice and courteous. They will answer any questions if you have. Place has restrooms. Food taste is okay.
Mohammed Mohammad: Among the placed that do the butter chicken,. Their lamb beriani also great. Staff are very friendly. Place is clean and cool. If you are around Washington dc this is a must try restaurant.
Hend Mamdouh: This restaurant is very good I went to it twice and ordered chicken masala and Tandori chicken The guys there are very friendly too Sure once I go to Washington again, I will come by them
mahnoor t: Great service with great ambiance! The food automatically gets better with their kindness and generosity towards their customers which feels more like being their guests. You feel welcomed and relaxed. The waiter was kind enough to offer to take our family photo. The owner came to our table and had a little chat with us which helped us get more familiar with their background and service. Overall, the prices are fair as compared to the location. The portion size is good too. I highly recommend this place for family gatherings or even with friends.
Waleed Hassan: First review: Great Place. Second review: The quality of food seems to have gone down a bit. The owners need to pay attention to quality as well as quantity of food and especially the BBQ (it was far from good today) One of my favorite places in DC- its a shame to see the decline of quality.
aneekha habeeb: Me and my Husband visited this place and it was almost magical. You feel the coolness and clam right away. Sweet music, great staff and service and amazing food choices! We ordered gyros sandwich and chicken tikka plate and it was soooo good!! I did not wanted to leave. The interior is breathtaking!!
Mohammed Aldawood: Beautiful restaurant from the inside. The outside is a bit deceptive. Great food and service. Tried the chicken biryani, saag paneer, and cheese naan. All were good but the naan was outstanding. Definitely recommend.
POC Building-Manager: This restaurant was my fav spot in DMV area for almost 5 years because I love Biryani, but today after 3 hour of swimming session I was starving and decided to eat Biryani, and I always prefer Mild because my stomach can’t digest spicy foods. I went to the counter as always wanted to see my friend who used to work there, he wasn’t there. However, There is a new guy which doesn’t know a word of customer service, first he served me a wrong order (spicy biryani), and secondly he served it in plastic bag ready for to-go, with only one set of plastic silverware for two people. While I told him clearly that I would be dinning inside. I am very disappointed because, I lost my fav spot. This type of service is really not expected from restaurant.
K -: Great food and super helpful staff. Menu is just one page front and back, but the kitchen specializes in what they serve. Food is well-spiced, comes out piping hot, and they have sit-in and take-away options. Punjabi Chai Tea was the perfect finish to the generous portions. Great place to share a meal with friends and family. Call ahead for reservations at dinner time as it can get busy (for good reason)!

Lucy Ruderman: Picked up lunch from here and it was enough for two days worth of lunch! The chicken and rice was great (partner loved the lamb and rice). White sauce is a must and I liked the spicy sauce but get it on the side to adjust for yourself. Highly recommend.
M M: Definitely not like a real NY style gyro but it’s decent. The quality of meat can be much more seasoned and moist. Also they don’t have their own signature hot sauce like most authentic places would.
Regina Welch: Glad to see some flavor added to the neighborhood. The lamb gyro was decentbut I was disappointed when I ordered the whiting fish salad and I ended up with what really looked and tasted soggy cat fish nuggets.
Connor Kinsella: Criminally underrated spot in the heart of AdMo. Easily some of the best food in DC that I’ve had at the best value I’ve found in the city. Can get a perfectly cooked chicken over rice with salad dish for $10 that travels well and tastes amazing. Staff are friendly and helpful. Highly recommend to anyone whose looking for great food for great value. Be sure to ask for the white sauce and BBQ sauce.
Abdul Malik: I enjoyed the food. And I am sure you will enjoy the food too. Please visit the place once and you will never chose any other place.
Jumanah Abdullah: My go-to place for a halal meal. Tastes great every time!
Junaid Aamer: Stopped here for a quick stop. Everything was well done and tasted great!

Sadhana G: We wanted to try a new cuisine for a friend’s birthday. So we picked up this place online as it looked like a different and interesting fusion. But the place was understaffed. The ambience was good and the vibe was different as we got seated in a darbaar style and had photo props like traditional uyghur turbans. The food wasn’t up to the mark. The appetizers like kabobs were really good. But, the main course wasn’t that satisfactory. We wouldn’t recommend the place for food but for tea, a different vibe and photos, the place is good.
mahnoor t: The noodles taste so good but if you are someone who cannot tolerate spices then it’s not for you. The food is very spicy but I like it. The ambiance is also very peaceful and beautiful. The service is also very good. They have sanitizer at the entrance which is also a plus point about any restaurant nowadays. You can also dine in with street view. Overall, I love the food because I love noodles. Also, it’s 100% halal.
Raj N: Absolutely delicious food, combined with an amazing ambiance and high variety, made this place on of our favorites in DC! This is the first Uygher place that any of us had been to, and we found the food to be incredible. Area around the restaurant is also nice for pre/post dinner exploring, and overall we would highly recommend if one is in the area
Hassan M: Beautiful place to dine, with Uyghur culture vibe . Food was a bit spicy for me as I am not a big fan of spices. But like the taste of it . Service was excellent. The waitress was so kind
Maria Hubert: Had to express my complete satisfaction with this place. Never had Uyghur cuisine before, so I was in for a great surprise when the food arrived. The Uyghur homemade honey cake was very moist and rich in flavor. The chicken and lamb skewer kebabs were succulent and embodied with aromatic seasoning.
Kamilla Savage: Delicious food and great service! The food was so good that we kept trying more and more dishes. We were full but didn’t want to stop eating. It was that good! 10/10. I can’t wait to come back!

Joanna Guy: Wow, Simply Bahn Mi is outstanding. As a pescatarian, it is very hard to find an incredible Bahn Mi. This satisfied my craving! I’ll be back time and time again! I recommend the tofu Bahn mi with crispy eggplant, peppers, soy sauce, and special request for moms chili sate 🤤
Khalil SM: It was the first time I was able to eat authentic Vietnamese food because it is halal, and it is the best place in all of DC. John is one of the best people to be able to talk to and seeing him behind the register was always a pleasure. This was the only spot that I would take folks who visit DC to, and each one loved it so much. Although I do not live around there anymore, I would love to visit just for some pho and banh mi again. A 5 star review does not even do it justice, I would give 10 if possible.
Praxedes Gamez: Visited because of the great reviews on here but was disappointed in the quality of the sandwiches and drinks. The banh mi are 75% bread and pickled carrots and only 25% protein. The drinks were blended and absolutely bland. I got two different flavors - lychee and passion fruit - and neither tasted like what they should.
Olivia Rovin: Their fresh tofu spring rolls and lemongrass tofu bahn mi single-handedly revived me during a very bad hangover. The owner/chef was so sweet. Highly recommend - hungover or not!
L M: Most amazing banh mi we have ever had! So delicious. And Johnny is the friendliest person we have met so far in the US! Johnny hit us up!
Esfaque Ahmed: Awesome place for Pho. They said all the meats are halal. We ordered lemongrass beef and beef brisket pho. We also ordered appetizer combo. Lemongrass beef pho I think is little spicy. So be careful if you don’t eat much spicy food! Service was very good.
Krishna Bhavithavya Kidambi: We did not dine in so I can not comment on the any other aspects apart from the food. The sandwich DAMN..! It’s one of the best Banh mi sandwiches I have eaten. We got the lemon chicken, cold cuts and BBQ pork. Not even one disappointed us. The sandwich was crunchy at the same time easy to bite in. The flavors were amazing. Not too spicy, not soggy as well. I would go with their recommendations about the sauce and toppings. If you are craving or wanting to try a Banh mi, don’t even hesitate this is the place to go to. The staff were so friendly. Heads up- it’s on a busy street with not much of parking, there is a street behind where you can park and walk for five min.
Kayo Teramoto: Love their banh mi sandwiches! Very filling and the bread is so good. A wonderful neighborhood staple.
Cynthia Shannon Burke: Chill and casual neighborhood spot. Cozy and friendly. Order at the counter. I got vegan pho with extra tofu and veg, and bf got lemongrass chuck banh mi with egg. Everything was delicious. Reasonable prices, we paid around $35 including tip for both dinners, beverages, and a bottle of water to go.

Fatima Clark: The Moroccan flag 🇲🇦 mural grabbed my attention as I’m driving on Georgia Ave, had to stop to try the food and I wasn’t disappointed! We had the chicken and lamb gyro with fries, it was excellent ( I tasted a little hint of Moroccan spices in the chicken) ! The staff was friendly, will definitely be back 😊
Maya Leo: Finally! I’ve been looking for a spot like this since District Gyro closed in Georgetown. The chicken was so good! I did not like the gyro though! Cool vibe inside!
Thomas Ellison: Solid food, I had the chicken and gyro combo bowl and it is one of the best I’ve had in DC. Looking forward to going back in and trying the wings next time. The white sauce is fire!
Brittany Okafor: Amazing concept and an amazing team providing exemplary customer service. I also never thought I would order wings from a halal spot, but wow . . .I’m ordering the house wings every time!
Seala Matthias: The restaurant is so cute and the staff is very warm and welcoming. The lady who served me and cashed me out was extremely sweet and was so passionate about the food and the restaurant. And it gets even better because the food taste really good as well! It’s perfectly priced and the location is great; I’ll definitely be returning soon.
Moh Ganchi: Felt very welcomed by the owners, extremely kind, got to sign our name on the wall, and take a picture of the mural outside. We tried out their delicious lemon pepper wings. Best wishes!
byron subero: Nice, clean, and cool spot. That lamb and chicken combo over rice was everything. Wings are on point too.
Kasim Ibrahim: Oh man where do I begin.. the combo platter was amazing. Exceptional quality and the portions for the platters were more than I expected. I can’t forget about the wings. Their house wings complemented the meal to perfection! Definitely a 10/10

Erin Johnson: I got the ground beef kabobs with some green sauce (has a nice kick to it) and the white sauce for the salad (yogurt mixed with herbs). This i was excellent. The meat is marinated a day-2days ahead of time and you can tell. The marinated chickpeas and basmati rice are a perfect compliment. Excellent food, I can’t recommend it enough!
Priyanka: Amazing food! Really fresh and tasty. They are open through the wee hours of the morning. so nice to find something with Halal options . The Alladin style pizza is fantastic. Definitely give it a try 😉
Swan: Ordered here because the rain, kept us from exploring any dine in options. This is a get it and go restaurant. Service was cool. However, I gave them a 3 star rating because they left the sauces out with my to go order. No salad dressing. But they were extremely nice. The food was good. Could have been better with the sauces, and salad dressing. The salmon was moist and flavorful. The chicken was sort of dry. But seasoned. The rice can’t go wrong with balsamic rice. It’s important to get them sauces it kinda make the meal. Also the salad dressing. The location of this restaurant is sort of on the corner of the street. No parking. Just street parking. It’s not a sit down spot so get it and go. The food would have been a 5 star! Sodas are 2.00. And water is 1.00.
Baharson: It was ok if you dont have a better choice. What they serve is different than the pic they have. Gyro with no hummus? And one cherry tomato in the wrap? And too much sauce. Lettuce was getting darker probably stayed out too long.
Yana Abdullah: Best place in town for kabobs! Tried their combo 3 and was very pleased. The bread is so warm and soft and most restaurants have very hard bread which I’m not a fan of at all. They do not skimp on the rice and chick peas either everything is just perfect!
Julio Garcia: Gyro was very delicious although it looked like a salad. Flavor was great. The place really needs an update and they have to do a better job keeping flys away from the cooking area. Customer service was good.
Luke Dotson: I called to place a pickup order after looking at the online menu (The Specialty Pizza) and the employee either could not or would not comprehend my order. After trying to communicate, the employee proceeded to hang up the phone on me. It was an egregious display of customer service. Tues 6/14 12:30AM.

Sadia Afroz: Decent portions. In addition to the rotisserie, we tried the beef steak sandwich which looked subpar but was surprisingly delicious.

Sydnye White: Love grabbing a Yafa salad bowl for lunch. I get chicken, lots of roasted veggies options and all the yummy garlic, tahini sauce and hummus I can stand!
Hisham Isa: I finally got to try this place. Had the option of wrap, bowl or plate. They we out of the pita pocket option at the time. Then picked the meat or veggies. They had chicken, beef or lamb. I got the bowl with rice and lamb. Both meat and rice portions were a bit small. I loaded up on the veggies since you can add whatever veggies you want to it. I was expecting more rice and meat for the price. What could have made it better? Hot rice and meats; more rice and meats; warm pita bread that came with it. Overall, positive experience as the food feels and taste healthy. Price was a bit over $12 for the bowl. I will definitely eat here again.
Kristen Marie: I’ve never had Shawarma before, so I appreciated how helpful the employees were in guiding me toward a shawarma rice bowl with delicious toppings. Fantastic! Great food and friendly staff.
Noor Ayoob: Man the food was amazing shawarma was so tasty definitely coming back again , this location is outside if McPherson square station close to 15th NW st and right in the heart if DC . Keep up the great work guys . You gained a very good customer.
Al: Unfortunately the beef shawarma bowl is nothing but gyro meat not real shawarma meat!! and the rice very cheap quality. Shawarma district or muncheez are much better. Place clean though.
Thomas Novelli: The chicken shawarma is pretty tasty. I recommend adding the spicy sauce and tzatziki for a great flavor combination. Service is quick and friendly. I’ll definitely return to check out other menu offerings.
sami china: Very bad manage I order with very spicy and cold sandwiches and when I called the manager to explain for him he said we don’t care about your opinion you can put bad reviews

Amy Clerkin: Wow! Highly recommend. We got the shawarma combo platter and gyro. Plus chicken tenders. Excellent. We even ventured back out in the cold a second time this evening to buy another round 😂 Give it a try!
Rachel L: I was pretty hesitant to give this place a try but I’m definitely glad I did! The food came out pretty quickly and it was relatively priced. The white sauce is amazing! I wish I knew the recipe so I could make it myself. The beef was tender and juicy and the fries with the spicy sauce were crunchy yet soft. Don’t let the outer appearance hinder you from giving this place a try!
Rhania Reeves: Just ok this time. I had it about 2 weeks ago for the first time and it was Breathtakingly great!!!I ordered combo (lamb, chicken, and steak) and only got a piece of each..... Small piece might I add.
Matthew J Johnson: Great food and great service, definitely recommend stopping by anytime you are in the Georgia ave dc area!!
Seth Philemon osei: I drove for about 10 minutes to pick up delivery, only to know that this shop is closed. Get your things in place SHAWARMA HUT. Thank you
weezy wick: This is my absolute favorite restaurant in DC . The food is always fantastic and Servers are also great and always efficient, happy and polite. Can’t wait to return and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone looking for somewhere to eat in DC 🔥💯
Joy McElroy: Amazing food and speedy service! The best Takeaway in DC
Fahad Zafar: Delicious Sandwiches & Platters. Best for dine in& To go. Ordered from door-dash & uber eat food was awesome
Altijani Hussin: If you are looking for a south Asian attempt of shawarma (pieces of meat grilled in a saj with naan bread), which has its ethnic spices from that beautiful part of the world (which I like and respect by the way), then this is your place. However, if you are like me looking for a genuine Middle Eastern shawrma (Syrian, Lebanese, Turkish, Palestinian, etc.), then you need to look somewhere else. The name is deceiving, and it should be “Gyro Hut”.

J Z: This place is a hole in the wall but serves some of the best Indian food in the city. I’ve had the lamb chops, goat curry, and lamb saag and all of them were fantastic. Lamb was cooked perfectly and the serving sizes are generous. The garlic naan is stuffed and crispy. For sure I’m going to be a regular here.
Sabrina Farmer: My biryani was okay, but my boyfriend’s butter chicken was too sweet and had no spice at all. The butter chicken honestly tasted like soul food sweet potatoes - cinnamon-y and starchy. Would not recommend.
DattMougherty _: As it happens, Washington DC does not have the death penalty. But were I to commit some heinous crime somewhere in the deep south and found myself guilty by a jury of my peers and sentenced to death, I would only hope that it would be possible to somehow order the butter chicken from Sacrificial Lamb in Washington DC as my last meal. It’s that good!
Carson Goff: My friend from India kept saying to me “Carson man, you have to try chicken karai”. Immediately I was in the search for a place that I could find this dish in DC. I stumbled across Sacrificial lamb and it did not disappoint. The sauce was rich and flavorful and had a nice subtle kick to it. The chicken and vegetables were also perfectly cooked and very tasty. The Naan was soft and the rice was good as well. Great Indian dining experience and I can’t wait to come back for more
Paul G: This place is amazing and for the price (about 40% cheaper than any other option in a 5 mile radius) - it’s worth becoming your go-to option as well! Everything from the saag paneer to the dal makhani to the staples of butter chicken and chicken tikka, you can’t go wrong! Garlic naan is awesome and they have a helluva lassi in the fridge - on the thicker side! Love this place and hope they never change!
Maddy Rai: Had ordered a delivery through Grubhub. Delivery and service was ok. Samosa plate was very good. 4 stars for Paneer makhani & malai kofta. Matar paneer & mixed veggie was meh! Not bad for a late night craving for Indian food.
Nilu Patel: Food is delicious I did Uber eats so can’t say much. Delivery was Punctual and I asked for utensils which they provided So that was good if back in DC will definitely come dine in .
Matt Parker: An absolute treat, delicious, good portions, and cheap. I get pickup from here a few times a month and has never once failed me, and often have leftovers for the next day especially if I order biryani
Anamaria Dutceac Segesten: The name of the place was the main attraction at first (we even asked why the name and the reason why is to mark that the meat is Halal). The quality of the dishes did not disappoint. I was happy with my vegetarian dish (okra or lady fingers, in a wonderful spicy mix), and my friends liked their chicken and goat (!) stews. The dal was also very good. A definite recommendation.
Nikolai Tolstoy: My favorite Indian food in DC. The store front is unassuming but don’t pass by! Great food and a great value.

Christopher Yandell: I visited Mama Ayesha’s for a friend’s birthday and it was a great experience. The food and ambiance were great. Every dish had the perfect amount of seasoning and flavor. We went on a Tuesday night, and there was only one other party dining while we were there. Overall, the experience was great besides our waiter who was a bit rude. He walked away from us while we were ordering on multiple occasions which rubbed me the wrong way. Either way, it’s worth a visit. We payed around $300 for a group of 8
Murtaza Bohra: Great atmosphere and service. The atmosphere is quiet and peaceful, and leaves plenty room for conversation. I got the Arak, Mashawi and Arabic Coffee to end with. Each meal left me wanting more. Although the portions are relatively smaller, the flavors are refreshingly authentic. For those from a middle Eastern background, it will take you back home. Highly recommend!
Mohammad Shouman: Mama Ayesha is a really nice Arabic restaurant. It has great ambience. Service was fast, and my waiter, Alex, was attentive. I expected my meal portion to be larger. However, the main criticism I have for it is that it doesn’t live up to its reputation as “your mother’s Palestinian cooking.” There are very few proper traditional dishes—where’s the molokhiya? Mansaf? Mujaddara? Kufta? Why are so many traditional Palestinian dishes missing? But most significantly, the signature Palestinian dish, the knafeh, was very disappointing. The cheese was stale and you had to fight with a knife to make out a piece. And there was no pistachio on top. I left similar feedback in a comment card, and I hope they take my feedback to heart. I really want it to succeed, but in the meantime I’ll be having knafeh at nearby Meze (which is not as authentic but still better than Mama Ayesha’s knafeh).
Abdul Rahman Ghannoum: Great Restaurant! Food portions are balanced. Taste was amazing! Love the history of the restaurant.
Ree A: First time to try but not last, I like the malfofo mahshi and maklobah very delicious and fresh. Thanks
Kamal Almashharawi: One of the best mediterranean restaurants in DC. Excellent food, prices, and hospitality. I recommend the Palestinian-owned restaurant for food lovers! The place is easy to find, but the parking lots are limited, try to find a close parking before arriving to the place. Good luck Mohammed & Abu Mohammed, so nice to see you!
Meghan Houghton: Food is always delicious and eager to support this local business. However, revising my prior 5 stars to 3 based on carryout experience. The portion seemed to be half what it used to be. My husband and I were both still hungry after 2 entrees and a salad. The lamb shank literally was half the size of what it was when we last visited in person. And I think there were no more than 5 green beans. It was just strange and disappointing for this restaurant that we were once eager to visit.
Darcy Thompson: Great date night place if you’re looking to explore middle eastern food and even better place if you’re already a “foodie” and lover of middle eastern cuisine.Server was lovely, food was outstanding ( I had the Stuffed Squash) and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves last evening.
Hner Zebari: Their food was good, but the service was very slow.
Caitlin Rulien: Delicious food in a very ambiant environment. Smaller portions than I’d hope, but I’d definitely go back. I’d give them 4.5 if Google did half point ratings.

Larry “Big Schlim” Mcleod: So every once in a while I’ll get an urge for Tiki Masala!! Normally when that happens I’ll go get the necessary ingredients and cook it at home. Not on this day, on this day I went to @bombaystfood for my Indian cuisine fix!! With multiple locations I went to their 1413 Park Rd., establishment. . . . Let’s get to it…appetizers include Samosas (a fried pastry filled with veggies, and/or proteins), & Raggda Patties (a potato & pea dish). They have dishes named after the rainy season monsoon like Panir Pakora (deep fried spiced cheese cubes). They have curry dishes like Butter chicken, Spicy Lamb Vindalo, & Shrimp Kadai (with tomato, bell peppers, and a spicy curry sauce). A ton of other dishes are available so check their website out. . . So this is what I copped…I started with their spicy Keema Pav (pictured a spiced ground chicken, with savory garlic rolls $8). STAMP!! It’s like a spicy chicken Sloppy Joe!! . Next up was their spicy Tandoori chicken wings (pictured with res onions, garlic, & green peppers $8). Absolutely DELICIOUS!! These aromatic, floral, wings are IT!! I’ve NEVER tasted chicken spiced like this before!! EXCELLENT!! . For my entree I chose my beloved Chicken Tikka Masala (pictured with Basmati rice $16). STAMP!! Flavorful, smooth, & delicious!! I highly recommend this dish!! . Lastly was their garlic Naan flatbread…STAMP!! I put some of that ground chicken in the bread…it SMACKS!! The Mango Lassi drink I got I STAMPED too!! It tasted like a mango yogurt juice!! Refreshing!! . . Customer service was delightful, the spot was clean, online navigation was simple, parking was horrible. Craving Indian food…go there!! That’s it. #bigschlimsreviews #Bombaysteetfood #Tandoorichicken #MangoLassi #TikkaMasala #Keemapav #Basmatirice #floral #deliciousness #goodeats #go #thatsit
Shameer Zahid: Favorite Indian food spot in the district, the food is creative yet authentic. I was particularly a fan of their take on traditional appetizers.
Shiv Patel: Would not recommend. There are many other competitors around. The food altogether was bland, tasteless and/ or way too spicy to consume. Those going for thali - note that it’s comprised of 6 items that are preselected and NOT replaceable. 3 items are vegetarian and 3 are non vegetarian. The cost and quality do not match at all. Save a little and go somewhere else, or spend slightly more and go to one of the Michelin star restaurants nearby. Hopefully, the quality of food changes. Wishing this place all the best.
Altinay Cortes: The food was delicious! Everything we ordered was delightfully flavorful. The butter chicken and salmon were standouts for sure. The service was fast and friendly and the prices were fair.
Mohammed Ahmed: I highly recommend Bombay street food restaurant in the nation capital Washington DC! The food was so delicious that I felt I was really in India! Everybody who comes to visit please don’t hesitate to step by and get a taste of the Indian food. Great staff, wonderful chef! I sincerely appreciate you guys😇
A B: Not enforcing the vaccine mandate! Honestly the food was just horrible. I ordered the pav bhaji and the plate looked just horrifying. The bread was dripping with butter and the the curry wasn’t even cooked properly and was floating in oil, there were just chunks of raw vegetables. It not only ruined dinner but also gave me an upset stomach.
Arshad Sayed: We tried what is considered by ‘Bombayites’ street food-Pav Bhaji, Keema Pao, Dahi Puri, Bhel Puri, and chicken manchurian (an indo china dish). The tab including tip was $48. So the good: Plentiful portions( we could not finish 3 of the dishes among the two of us) cheap, good service, and the food was served hot. Good Dahi Puri and well attempted Pav Bhaji. What missed my expectations: The Bhels puffed rice were not as crisp, too much dal, and the chutneys lack vigor. The chicken Manchurian was a poor attempt at disguising General Tsao’s in a more spicy sauce and therefore lacked authenticity. The Keema Pao, alas a valiant attempt to capture the flavors so reminiscent of South Bombays Parsi, Iranian, and Muslim restaurants — struggled to please the taste buds. however to be fair I haven’t tried the curries and hope to revise my ratings based on that in the future. Until then I would give it a 3.5.
betsy harrison: I love the samosa and chili chicken. Unfortunately, the last time I had the chili chicken it was too spicy hot. I love spicy, but couldn’t eat it. I still give them 5 stars because it’s always been great otherwise. Their chicken biryani is very good also. I get their food a couple times a month.

Swathi Chandrasekaran: Enjoyed the bowl with sweet potato tikkis. Their tamarind chutney was delicious too! Wish their peanut sesame sauce had more flavor to it, it tasted quite bland. Large space with plenty of vegetarian options. Ideal for grabbing a quick lunch.
Soraya H: I see it as an Indian cuisine version of CAVA - if you’re in a mood for casual Indian it’s a good spot. They also serve alcohol & flavorful house sodas.
Dilip Naik: Interesting and new. They had a lot of options for vegetarian and the food tasted good. Tou have a lot of ways to customize your bowl and it tasted amazing. The staff was friendly and the place is clean.
McKayla Chambers: Delicious meal! First time trying this while visiting DC area and very impressed. I love chicken tikka masala, and ordered their “tikka chance on me”. Great flavor and great portion size. Garlic naan was a great side with the meal.
Jean-André Moore: Pretty good spot. Think chipotle but for Indian food. Generous portions for good leftovers. Staff here had great recommendations, inside has a very cute vibe to it. Soft serve rotates flavors, including cherry blossom. Good if you want a quick bite for no wait.
Sharon Zacharia: Most authentic South India food in DC! Really amazing considering they are a meal-in-a-bowl concept. Food is always fresh. Plus they always have real good mango lassi and samosa as condiments which are great. Also, their decor is really lovely and colourful.
BMORE PRO PRODUCTIONS: Great flavors! Nice spot with goodnfood. It reminds me of a healthy Chipotle or something lol
Adriana Rec: Worst Indian food I’ve ever had! GO SOMEWHERE AUTHENTIC!It was dull and watery. The customer service was great but the food was terrible!
Sam Viola: ordered the oatmilk cherry blossom soft serve & mint cardamom limeade both off which were easily 11/10 - everyone inside was so helpful and kind and made me feel so welcome - go here

Eray Idil: Great Restaurant, fast service, delicious food. Prices are pretty reasonable. Make sure to try their amazing “Pide”s.
Murat Alpa: Loved the restaurant, staff was really friendly. I brought a colleague to get a taste of Turkish culture and he really enjoyed it.
Liz T.: The Pide was so delicious!!! Best one I have tasted in the states. Came all the way from Orlando! Very friendly owner.
Hasan Dugan: A nice restaurant with parking and nice vibe. Food especially the pide is incredibly tasty. Fresh halal amazing food with excellent customer service by the owner. Authentic Turkish food well worth the price I promise
Kara: Loved the Lamb and Pastırma Pide here and Gazoz. Tasted super fresh and delicious. The owner was so kind! Would definitely reccomend
Rutuja Bawne: This was my first time trying Turkish food. I really liked it. Pide tastes so much better than thin crust pizza. I loved it. I liked their hummus and sauces.They have good variety of vegan, vegetarian and meat.
Emad Alsagheer: The food is delicious! You can make your own, which is a nice to have when you feel like doing so. All the meat here is Halal!The service is great, we felt so welcomed.The restaurant looks nice and super clean.

Sean Rambo: This place we decided to come to craving Pakistani food, itv was spicy, delicious although a little on the pricey side. Overall delicious food, come here.
Rana Sandouka: I strongly recommend this restaurant.The food is out of this world! Very authentic Desi food. Their service is excellent quality. Yasir is very friendly and welcoming. Very hygienic place and they follow the safety measures. I love their Butter Chicken and Lamb Beryani. Everytime I order something new, I become addicted. City Kabob is literally the BEST restaurant in town. I am officially ADDICTED 🤩
Gene Meader: Lunch bar was delicuous as I expected! Juice was better than I anticipated!
Nadiya Abbasi: If you are Pakistani woman, DONT EVER COME HERE. This man in the photo will forward your order like "ek PAKISTANI AURAT aai hay" means "A PAKISTANI WOMAN IS HERE" and then spoke some more nasty words that I dont want to repeat. This is Racist. Later he came to me and ask in English how do u like to have it "english style or Pakistani style" so I replied as you said loudly inside that "a Pakistani woman is here, so u should know what a Pakistani woman likes to eat. He did not even apologize but ignored. This is Racism and you guys should report such racist people. Calling name is always racist and I am planning to report this incident to the related authorities. Say NO to racism
Zainab Ali: Delicious halal food tastes just like home, and great service. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. Definitely coming again ! 😍

Sadhana G: We were out of places to go to after an outdoor movie at Rosslyn. It was past midnight and we knew that the only place that would be open around our area would be the famous King George Falafel. We ordered a chicken shawarma wrap. Food was fresh and warm. The place was crowded surprisingly at that hour. But I felt it was a little hyped up for the quality of food.
Amana Choudhri: Amazing! Loved everything I ordered especially the lamb shawarma. Low key atmosphere with not a lot of seating and very few tables outside.
shehzan dahya: the food is always amazing. the quality of food for the price is great and they are open till late which makes them popular. this place is a vibe!
Abdullah Musalli: Been there a couple of times. Chicken Shawarma taste pretty good, love the garlic sauce and the mixed pickles on the side. We ordered falafel and honestly wasn’t as I was expect it ( cold and flavorless). The service is fast and there’s a place for dine in. I will come again for the chicken shawarma. Recommended !
Victor: I’m giving this place 3 stars but I’m going to give it another try because I need to try a different menu item. I went here around lunch time,it was clean, the place had good vibes, and they had good service. Everything was great but the gyro meat. I ordered the lamb gyro and the meat was equivalent to the gyro meat you would get from the frozen food aisle. Which was very disappointing. Edit* I tried a steak and cheese platter I still give this place a 3 stars.
Vidhi Nangia: Nice spot with simple yet great options. Portion sizes are good for the price. Close to the best wrap I’ve had but not the best. Would definitely come here again. Fries with the toum is a must.
Vishnu Viswanathan: Also the King of Shawarma. Ordered a chicken shawarma combo. It was cut into bite-sized portions and served with delicious garlic sauce and some pickle. The extra spicy sauce gives a pretty good kick! Highly recommended!
Rosemary Hartline: The chicken shawarma wrap is the best I’ve ever had! My fiancé had the cheese steak and it was also wonderful. Reasonably priced and made to order- the hummus is fantastic as well!
Mohammed S: best shawarma in Washington D.C. I like the atmosphere. The staffs are friendly and kind. Definitely, I will be back soon.

sahil sardana: 1. Good tasting indian food with modern twist 2. A little expensive especially when it is a self service joint 3. Non vegetarian food is good with good options 4. 4/5 because there is only 1 veg option that too vegan. No paneer. 5. Must visit if looking for good and quick food.
Arsha Kardani: Chipotle style Indian restaurant. Food was very good and I loved the concept. I ordered the chef curated dish, tikka chance on me. You can also create your own with your own choices. Homemade juices were good too. I would really recommend this place.
jeffrey johnson: After asking may I exchange a drink because my girlfriend was allergic to the ingredients I was told no. That it was not returnable which I never asked and it also was not exchangeable. I heard that this place had great food and excellent customer service, but their lack of understanding and lenience was very disheartening.
NY Fashion: Nice place and great concept, but very disappointing food.. generally under seasoned, eggplant were tough and inedible, cilantro sauce was bitter and old, and just generally lacked the flare that south Asian food would have. 😕Came in with great expectations, but won’t be back. Someone should taste the food occasionally, and/or train the cooking staff.
Jane L: Great fast casual option with several locations in the area. Set up is like Chipotle except with Indian flavors! They also have super cute decor and indoor and outdoor seating.
Your Helpful Wendy: I love Indian food so much! That’s why I end up in this place and it was perfect because they do takeout. I order one of the bowls in the menu that it was already there but you can create your own with all the different options they have. Mine had rice chicken and all the colors and spices and flavors that I always love about Indian food. The price was great!! The service was extremely good, the lady was so nice and helpful. The only thing I would suggest this place will be to change the bags because they gave me the food in a bag and I walked my way back home, my food spilled all over the bag because it’s not a big enough for the size of the containers, so it’s squishes the food and that’s how it opened and the food was all over, the good thing is that I was able to eat it at home. I had to throw the bag and I had to put my clothes to the washing machine right away because everything was dirty but at least I had my meal later that day.

Luke Chang: This place was nice. You get a pitcher of water, very similar to the izakayas in Japan. Loved the atmosphere. 2 unisex bathrooms. Service was A+, food was delicious, overall a positive experience. Restaurant was clean. Bathrooms were clean. The mango frozen drink is a must 😉. Service was also on spot. Given this place a go. I was impressed for my first experience here.
Melanie Smith: Great weekend brunch, get there slightly before they open to avoid the lines! We rolled up at 12:01 and we were already too late and waited about an hour for a table! The good news is that the wait is worth it! Also, if you live in the hood you can place and order and pick it up too. The spicy miso ramen hit the spot for my super picky husband who just spent theee years eating ramen in Japan. The fried chicken and waffles is not to be missed! The fried chicken was just like my grandmothers and the waffle was really a waffle donut. We grabbed a cookie to go for our walk home- it was crunchy and soft all at the same time! The best chocolate chip cookie ever.
Rosie HK: After the fiasco that was the Red Eye Market, we went here. The fried chicken was absolutely delicious along with the side of rice. The chicken ramen was amazing too although I think it didn’t sit well for my stomach. So that’s why 4 instead of 5 stars.
Eric Moy: Perhaps even better than Daikaya around the corner. Gyoza was definitely a pleasant surprise - reminded me of chili wontons; just the right amount of spice. Spicy Miso Ramen was fantastic as well - I like my ramen broth rich, and this definitely hit correctly. Service is fast - in and out in less than 30 mins
Hira Hasnain: Ramen joint - awesome! Actually good - amazing? Halal, in addition to the aforementioned? Mind-blowing!!! We walked in this joint and it was automatically just such a fun, cool, laid back environment - I absolutely loved it! I ordered the spicy miso ramen and hubby ordered the chicken ramen. Both loved our ramen, and enjoyed the broth immensely. My only complaint was that I ordered the green tea which was just hot water and a tea bag. But, honestly, I was so involved with that ramen that I could not care!!! I was so enamored with their spicy miso, that the next day (we were on vacation) I went ahead and had them deliver another spicy miso ramen and their fried chicken with the rice that has the chicken drippings. Let me say, that chicken was THE BOMB DOT COM!!! Sooooo good…and a lot of people may not appreciate the simplicity of white rice, butter and chicken drippings, but it’s an explosion of flavorful savory goodness - I highly recommend it!!!!
Due Chuenchujit: Delicious chicken ramen! We ordered the impossible meat tantan ramen and load it with toppings. The chicken dimpling in spicy sauce is tasty as well. Short walk from the stadium and the national portrait gallery.
Nameir M: Wow! The Nashville chicken and the Ramen are both delicious. Nice atmosphere and prompt service. Halal menu too.

Kayla N: Overall, the quality of the food was not impressive. Every dish we ordered was good, but it was like there could be something to be improved with it. The veggies included in the pearled noodle dish didn’t seem to match so well, the lamb kebab seemed to be a little overcooked, and the pumpkin dumplings were definitely just square cuts of butternut squash in a dumpling wrapper. The dessert also didn’t taste super fresh. Service was very slow as well, even though they were not very busy in terms of the restaurant itself being packed. It was good but I wouldn’t come back just because none of the dishes stood out and tasted prettty average.
Fiona Alison Kibblewhite: The food here is truly excellent! I got the korma chop and really loved it. The noodles in particular are phenomenal. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for great Uyghur food!
Zhanna :: we specially stopped in Washington for the Uyghur restaurant, but unfortunately we were disappointed. The dishes are strongly Americanized, the waiter does not understand the Uyghur cuisine at all, the chiefs are Indonesians. Complete disappointment. Ребят, к сожалению блюда американизированы и не особо вкусно (((
MacKenzie Sexton: fantastic food and efficient, friendly service! i had the mushroom salad and the korma chop with beef. They were both excellent. the beef and noodles in the korma chop were cooked and seasoned wonderfully.
Lindsey Stiles: We ordered take out from Dolan last night and it was amazing! They have gluten free options (I got the dry fried chicken and green beans) and everything was delicious!
Jarin Tasnim: Food was soooooo good. Also I got perfect flavor with korma chop. “Want to go again???” Yessssssssssssssssssss🤩. But samsa should be beef or chicken.
Iram Zafar: The menu has a lot of delicious options so it was hard To choose from. The food was tasty and the service was fast with bringing the food out! The kabobs are super cheap, but they’re delicious. My favorite things about this place is the combination of savory spices on the pulled noodles. However, I did have to wave the waiter down quite a bit! Overall, I recommend this place!
