Was here a few weeks ago and had their Shish Ta Wouk, which is basically grilled chicken with rice and garlic sauce.
The chicken was amazing; it was tender and juicy. Well grilled, although I prefer it with a little more intense flavoring. The rice was nice, nothing much to talk about that, anyways.
The garlic sauce needs a special mention! Typically, garlic sauces don’t fit my palate, but this one just hits the right spot! The chicken and the garlic sauce is the perfect combo, and I practically licked the whole sauce off the bowl.
Finally, I had the baklava. It was disappointing. It did not look fresh. Even the Costco baklava was way better than theirs.

THEE ABSOLUTE BEST LEBANESE FOOD YOU CAN GET IN THE DMV!! Restaurant owner/manager was so nice and everyone was helping everyone. I went at a busy time and they seemed to be a little short staffed, but we still received exceptional service. Will go back any chance I get and have recommended to so many of my friends!!!! The lamb shank was amazing and the fried artichoke hearts were my #1 fav! Portion sizes are huge!

FANTASTIC food. The gyro meat, rice, and taxiki were all A+. I will say the hummus was kind of average to me, but that doesn’t bother me so much because I go for the meat. The entire experience was very positive and service was fairly quick even on a busy weekend evening. Highly recommend!

With so many choices on the menu, I decided to get the Shawarma Combination Platter ($17.50) and Ayran ($3.95) to drink. The chicken was good, but the beef was dry and I wouldn't get it again. There was no pita bread, which was supposed to be included. For me, the best part of the lunch was the rice.

Best restaurant and dining experience in the DMV area! Service was excellent, the Combination Platter (especially the falafel, stuffed grape leaves and baba ghanouj) were phenomenal, as was the sujuk. The desserts, particularly knafeh and rice pudding were heavenly. Everything pairs perfectly with the Lebanese wines as well. Cannot recommend this place enough.
