“We adore this place!!! Genuinely the best bar food in all of Herndon!It's the only kitchen that gets simple (crispy) french fries absolutely perfect!Wonderful atmosphere.The wait staff is top notch and very attentive.Tony and Company make it our go-toplace for great food and a good time!“
“My wife and I went there with a couple of friends. The food was delicious. The service was quick and we were allowed to spend as much time as we needed on a Saturday! I recommend trying the flatbreads and the platter.Vegetarian options: They have salads, vegetarian flatbread, a vegetarian quinoa bowl and a veggie burger.“
“Random find after a work meeting, and am so thankful I came in. The food is out of this world. All three of us devoured our meals and couldn't stop raving and wishing Kabobi was down in CVille where we were visiting from. Seriously if you're in the area, this is where you need to be eating!“
“Awesome food and great customer service. We stopped at Moby Dick on the way back from IAD airport since it was closest one to eat some kabob and i am really glad we did. I never had tasty chicken koobideh like this before. We tried the beef koobideh and chicken kabob also and they were amazing. Had chance to talk to manager since he came over to check on us and see if we liked the food. I love to go back and get me some chicken koobideh whenever i have to make trip to airport.“
“Absolutely 5-?place. Why? (1) They are genuinely hospitable and you will feel their positive vibes as soon as they start greeting you. (2) The place is very clean, well-maintained, and organized, with good distance between tables. I like their booths better?. (3) They serve authentic and VERY delicious Afghan dishes. Kabobs are soft and juicy. Shrimps are crazy delicious and soft (never chewy). Ghabeli-polow is the best! (4) Their quality of service and dishes are consistently great. (5) Their price is competitively low for such large portions.Highly recommended!“
“Definitely a hidden gem little fast/causal spot! My husband and I got the gyro wrap and beef shawarma wrap with fries and they were delicious. Gentleman at the counter was friendly and dedicated to making our food deliciously for our first dinning experience with them. Ordered a side of rice (which is CRAZY GOOD) and he hooked us up. Only thing I would have liked to see was a little salt on the fries but they were fried to perfection“
“Who would have expected fine dining meals from a small open kitchen (think pizza or sandwich shop style restaurant) with a few tables in a small strip shopping center in Great Falls, Virginia, but Thelo Greek Kuzina’s food was stellar. I could not decide what to get to take home for our family, so got way too much food for four people. Every meal, appetizer, and desert was delicious. we had the lamb shank meal, the New York Sirloin entree, Moussaka, Imam Baildi, lamb gyros, Greek salad, homemade potato chips (best ever), pita and hummus sampler, and more. Deserts were the lemon cake, apricot baklava, sour cherry baklava. Yeah we overdid it on our order, but we enjoyed a smorgasbord of delicious Greek food that made you think it was from a top 10 upscale downtown restaurant. Thank you Thelo Greek Kuzina for an unexpected true culinary experience.“
“This is truly one of if not the best shawarma places it is so full of flavor for a very reasonable price and the staff is some of the nicest people I have ever meet if you are hungry and need a spot this is the perfect place truly a one of a kind experience.“
“Cute, relaxing atmosphere with attentive, friendly service and delicious Greek food! The French fries are awesome, the dips fantastic, and gyros and chicken souvlaki worth the trip back always!Vegetarian options: Falafel, veggie options for wraps and appetizers, salads, and dipsParking: In a large shopping center, so tons of free parking and wide spots“
“Please do not anywhere. Stay. There are very rich people around here. They may have bad taste in food ( they think Bonefish Grill and Subway is good). But you'll change all their palettes. Had your Lobster deviled eggs, Brussels sprouts, and Sausage pizza. Good God Gertrude. Damn good. Also, menu is great and I cannot wait to meet each dish. Cool interior. It's not data center dull which you get around here. You see, these aren't Miami artsy people in this area but they all work for the government, so they have $$$. Great job. Jay Bloome. Ashburn“
“Solid Vienna takeout. Supports local causes. Wish they were open a little later. Staff is always very friendly and dine in customer are well taken care of. Menu is huge and never had anything I wouldn't order again. Rotisserie chicken is the best in Vienna. Always hot and juicy.“
“I’m photographer and I was worked National Geographic,Turkish Airlens Air France so I visited a lot place and for me best Turkish/Greek place is here in Ashburn Virginia.It’s one of my favorite places now. Their Soup and Pide is so amazing, and their lahmacun,salad are fresh and full of zesty flavor. Love the atmosphere and the team of professionals! For great serviceI appreciate. I gave them big thumbs up ?? ?Also one more detail their resturant clean and smell goodParking: Front of resturant there is a lot park space!“
“How did I forget to review Plaka?? Plaka is consistently amazing. Fast, delicious and friendly service every single time. I love introducing people to Plaka. The food is always fresh and tasty. Some of my favorite things are the Plaka Gyro Wrap which has Authentic Greek-style pork gyro with tomatoes, onions, tzatziki and fries inside. It's filling but you won't be in a food coma afterwards. I also love getting the plaka bowls where you can choose what you want in them. Kind of like Cava but way better.“
“I've been here several times for dinner, and I was just fortunate enough to have them cater a special event. The food was amazing, plentiful, and satisfied everyone, even kids and vegans. Their happy hour is the best in the area (specials on drinks and appetizers) and I highly recommend their catering.“
“Wonderful, polite, friendly staff who don’t pester you but who will share a smile or a laugh.The food is delicious, I can’t wait to try more dishes (so far the falafel platter, lamb, chicken, coffees, chai tea (wow), and the saffron ice cream is a real treat!The decor is lovely and the seating comfortable.There was plenty of parking.“

“Massaya Lebanese Restaurant and Bar is simply exceptional. The food is consistently fresh and bursting with flavor, earning a solid 5-star rating every time. The ambiance is inviting, and the staff are not only friendly but also beautiful inside and out. It's a must-visit spot whenever I'm in Ashburn.“
“First time here. Ordered 4 appetizers which were perfect portions for 2 people. The eggplant was excellent. Calamari wasn’t what I expected as “sauté” but sauce was tasty. Restaurant is very loud so difficult to have conversation in normal speaking tone.“
“The food was good-quality. Adanas are above-average quality, the portions were a little small for a party of 6, especially with the Lezze Mezzes for 4. The The moussaka was a bit bland. Service was decent, and were attentive to my allergies. The atmosphere was decent, but it would be nice to see some decorations from Turkey, or something that screams that you are walking in a Turkish restaurant. Place was also a bit cramped. I definitely felt like Lezzet could have more representation of a Turkish identity.“

“The interaction with the lady at the counter is often a cause of worry. It could be me, but her anxiety and stress levels are thru the roof all the time. It just makes me feel guilty for coming and giving them business. Honestly, this cant be good for her health.The food is scrumptious. Authentic Lebanese food to a South Asian pallette. Wont disappoint.Would go there again ... And be as gentle as possible. Yikes!“
“This is really a Mediterranean place, with typical options. They even asked if I wanted ice in the water, nice touch! I had a wrap with lamb. The lamb was hit or miss, some chunks tender and some quite chewed. My wife's falafel wrap was wonderful. The coffee and water were great.“
“Nov 16, 2023Today in the midst of the lunch hour rush Carlos helped us with a complicated order and was very attentive as was his wonderful staff.If you’ve not tried Cava yet, run and do not walk to this Vienna location on Maple Ave!Parking: In mid- November, they still have some outdoor seating!“
“Their Halal Chicken x Latin Dry Rubs x Mediterranean Spices come together so well in their BYO (Build Your Own) Chicken Bowls.I love ordering their chicken bowls with Huli chicken and then making it perfect to my taste buds with the additional sides.[[Food: 5 of 5]]Adding avocados, grilled corn, cojita cheese, feta cheese, add pita chips for crunchy chips, drizzled with their Huli Signature dressing and Jalapeno dressing for a nice kick. [[Service: 5 of 5]]I usually always order online because it's convenient for me but I have ordered in store once or twice and the staff is always nice. You can ask them for recommendations and they'll be honest of their answers.[[Ambiance]]It's quiet and there's usually no customers when I come here. It's a chill spot if you want to have a quick lunch.“
“You’re missing out if you haven’t been here. I’m always amazed when I can just walk into a restaurant in Ashburn get a table, and great meal at a fair price.Their home cooked style meal comes with great service. By all means forgo ihop or those other big box restaurants and come to this local gem.“
“The food was expertly prepared. We lived in Turkey for 3 years and this was the best we've had in the US. Our waiter was friendly and made recommendations on our wine selection we never would have done ourselves. The Turkish Red wine is amazing. If you appreciate authentic Turkish food, find this place.“
“Decent kabobs for anyone not looking for authentic flavors. The chicken breast is unusually moist and very tasty. I also like their hummus and bread. It's a great family meal that will last a few days. All of the options are delicious.“

“Great value, delicious food, friendly staff. Ordered at the restaurant; we had the steak and cheese, fries and garden salads. Everything was DELICIOUS! This is one of our favorite spots to have lunch. Will Recommend to anyone in the area looking for fresh food and a quick service. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“
“The restaurant's breakfast buffet during Ramadan is excellent! It offers a wide variety of dishes, starting from soups and ending with desserts. The place is clean and well-maintained, creating a pleasant dining atmosphere. The food is carefully prepared and thoughtfully presented, showcasing attention to detail. From the flavorful soups to the delightful sweets, every aspect of the buffet is enjoyable. It is a great choice for a satisfying and diverse breakfast experience.Thank you for everything....“
“Great customer service! Knowledgeable service staff. Even the Manager jumped in to help after taking my order where there was no other customer behind me even if servers at the counter didn't need the assistance. Also asked me how I like the food.“
“Not a huge fan of buffets. You always leave feeling... unsatisfied. Like you ate, but was it food? Then I was dragged to Shishkabon Express. Someone here loves to cook, and is great at it. The kabobs are delicious, the biryani was fluffy (I don't even know how), and the Firni pudding and flan were simply amazing. Every bite was just right. I'm not down here often, but when I am, this will become a regular spot!“
“Food was delicious! I got the falafel platter and hummus and it was so good. The hummus was my favorite! It's all run by one man and he made everything fresh for me. We had pleasant conversation while I ate there. He is a very nice man and I will happily go again to try the kabobs!Vegetarian options: The falafel platter comes with a good portion of rice and salad as well as some bread. I ordered it with the hummus and it was a wonderful vegetarian meal!!!“
“This is an incredible Mediterranean grocery store, butcher, and catering business. Their food is absolutely delicious. They are very reasonably priced and offer the most amazing Lebanese cuisine. Everything is always so fresh! They are very accommodating. Their lamb, beef, chicken, kabob, kufta, are all delicious. They have great salads, rice, and pastries as well. I always use Beirut Cafe for all my parties and my guests are always impressed. They also have quick turnaround and can customize orders as needed. Highly recommend them. I have been using them exclusively for the last 8 years!“
“Classic bar with Greek themed food. Awesome servers, and a decent variety of options. Trivia and poker nights add fun atmosphere and new connections. Great party room available upstairs.Parking: The library garage is just across the block. It's only a 3 minute walk. There are some lots nearby but this facility does not have any dedicated parking.Wheelchair accessibility: Not built with Ada guidelines, but you can wiggle through with a wheelchair.“
“Havabite eatery has the best chicken souvlaki and gyro sandwiches in Northern Va. We stopped in here not expecting much but were pleasantly surprised by how good the meals were. Most other places overcook the souvlaki meat leaving it dry but at Havabite the meat was tender and well seasoned and the bread was fresh and the tzatziki sauce was yummy and creamy. The only improvement would be on the baklava, which was on the dry side. We'll definitely be back for more.“
“I have been looking for places with dessert windows and was pleasantly surprised to find that here.We came for shawarma and left with appetizers and dessert as well.They’ve added a very nice looking eat in counter area in the back.They don’t seem accustomed to people that aren’t from their culture. Don’t hesitate to ask, they are super friendly explaining what’s in everything.“
“Such a friendly place with home-style delicious food. Most of my family orders the gyro platter every time and has for years. I'm recently vegetarian, but I enjoy the pizzas, pasta and salad.Vegetarian options: Pizzas, pasta, salads, and some delicious vegetarian apps.“
“I’m a regular - they work with you to make sure everything is correct and well - super great decor - can get packed lunch during weekends but they do their best to get everyone served - make sure you guys know you have to put the silverware away back at the trash cans!“
“Highly recommended, food was delicious and the service was excellent. I want to especially send a comment of appreciation to Diosis who was so kind an patient explaining how everything worked because I'm a first timer! I will definitely be back!“
“Time after time it’s the same exact thing! The young crowd taking care of the frontline is just amazing at this location. They provide a service you rarely see at any business. Of course I keep coming back for the Thursday specials or chicken kabob flavor any other day! Keep up the good work! ???“
“I don't know why people keep saying they don't have salsa, their salsa is AMAZING!! The warm chips, fresh cilantro and huge chunks of red onion ... I couldn't get enough... and I should have because then I couldn't finish my huge chicken burrito... but I did finish my huge margarita (salt & something red on the rim). Everything was delicious! The music was really loud... but it's not a big place, I did not expect the loud music but the food was so good I decided to enjoy the whole experience and then my toddler started dancing LOL. I will definitely go back! The service was ok, my waitress was nice and got everything to me in a decent time, everything that was supposed to be hot, was.“
“My husband and I checked out this place for the first time after seeing that they host a 90s r&b brunch on Sundays. The inside aesthetic was a vibe and the DJ was playing a good mix of 90s and early 2000s music. They had a guy selling cigars on the patio and they also offer hookah.Food: The brunch menu is a different menu from their regular menu with a handful of brunch items (not much was Greek food which was a little disappointing) including bottomless mimosas. They offer three brunch pricing options and we opted for the $59 per person 3 course + bottomless mimosas. We received a bread and spreads board, one appetizer each and one entree each for this price plus a mimosa bar where they bring a carafe of champagne to your table and you make your own mimosa (or Bloody Mary) at their drink bar. They had a good choice of syrups, juices and fixins for a Bloody Mary or mimosa. We both ended up ordering the chicken and waffles which was a fried chicken breast on top of two waffles with butter and super diabetically sweet syrup on top of the waffles. I will say the meal was good, however the fried chicken (while fresh and hot) was a bit bland and needed the super sweet syrup or maybe hot sauce to add flavor.Service: service was alright in my opinion. The place was pretty empty and our server was very nice, however it was odd to me seeing our server as well as the other servers smoking hookah and chilling in the booths and tables like they were just hanging out. I do get that there wasn’t many patrons/customers so they didn’t have much to do, but I guess I would just rather not see it while I’m dining. At times our server took quite a bit to come back to check on us or take our other orders and it was mostly due to her talking and hanging out. The DJ and other guy (not sure if he was the promoter or staff) with him was extremely friendly and offered us drinks on him which was. A kind sentiment (we never got those drinks though lol).Overall, I think this place was really nice and I believe that they will improve once they have been doing the Sunday brunch a little longer. I’m pretty sure they just started doing the Sunday brunch and not many people know about it yet. I would come back and try out their dinner since I really wanted to try more Greek food“
“I come here 3 times a week and the food is always fresh and delicious! They keep the food constantly moving with cooks in the back.The staff here are very welcoming and friendly.The restaurant is always clean and I constantly see the staff cleaningAll to say this location has been consistently excellent and recommended must try!“

“This is my first time ordering here the crew is very happy offer me a drink because it was my first time and the food came out very fast 15min and the food was very good I highly recommend, the combo 2 and your hummus with fresh pita bread.“
“I enjoy coming to this Cava because I feel welcomed every time. Not only do I feel welcomed but the food just is always fresh and good. A customer in-front of me was their first time going to Cava and I saw that an employee ( couldnt get their name ) was super helpful with explaining their choices and opinions. Overall 10/10 experience! I recommend coming to this Cava!“
“Cafesano is great. It is right near Lake Anne, giving it a beautiful view. I really like their pizzas, quesadillas, and kabob platters. Kabob platter is reasonably portioned, but the kabobs are really yummy and the rice is reasonably seasoned. Pizzas are nice and fresh. The homemade lemonade is also nice, with the right amount of tang and sweet. I would definitely come back here again.“
Middle Eastern • $
“I was looking for something new and different for dinner and discovered this little gem of a middle eastern / Mediterranean restaurant. There were many choices that made it difficult to decide. They also have large family platters which is convenient when ordering for the entire family. It is obvious this is a very popular place and you need to be slightly patient not only because of other orders in front of you but also because food is prepared fresh. The meats were very tender and full of flavor, taking me back to past trips to the Middle East. Salad was also very fresh along with rice that was cooked to perfection, not hard or mushy. The staff was very friendly and organized as you must be to run a high tempo restaurant. They do take quite a bit of pickup orders as well. I definitely recommend checking this restaurant out in the Sterling Dulles Town Center. It is between Chipotle and the VA ABC.“
“I ordered from here via doordash recently and was very impressed with their Makani Platter, Buffalo Wings, and Feta Dip. Their Makani Platter was large and flavorful, the Wings had a great crunch to them, and the Feta Dip was one of the freshest tasting things I've had in a while. I'm surprised this place doesn't have higher reviews, my meal was stellar. Thank you!“
“Tried Taza last night. I ordered the lamb and beef kebab. Came with rice, salad, and bread. The people there are so nice and accommodating. They offered us additional white sauce and gave me more for my take home leftovers. The portion was generous, and the kebab tasty. I liked the rice and salad as well. They didn't seem that busy. I was wondering why.“
“Place look good, pretty clean. Employees were nice. Food was 5/5, got the lamb bowl, brown rice, veggies, lamb kabobs, cucumbers, tomatoes, pita chips, green beans, and some hummus: the spicy fita and the Greek humus and Greek balsamic vinaigrette. Overall it was good, worth the price and service. Had to ask for a drink which I had to pay for on the side.“
“What a lovely fresh-flavorful-vibrant looking beautiful delight in a bowl !!!!! Quantity wise I would recommend going for the chicken shawarma bowl half salad half rice, as you can see from the pic the shawarma bowl was good for 2 whereas the rice bowl chicken kabob was lil less in quantity.Love Mediterranean food and this place is a must try place!!!!“
“The Baklava was the absolute best I have EVER had! I also got the Anatolian appetizer plate for 1. It was a great way to try several different foods from the region and definitely worth trying. The Ceasar salad dressing is made in house amd VERY good as well.“
