The food cannot get more authentic. Truly phenomenal food if you are in the mood for an awesome Lebanese food bite without all the frills. The hummus is to die for. Freshly baked bread crispy hot out of the oven is served with the mezze. mouthwatering Manaeesh pies-- thyme, cheese, minced meat Lahm Bil Ajeen. This place is a gem hidden in the heart of Northern Virginia. The owner George is very pleasant and gracious. The service is simply delightful. This is not a white table cloth restaurant but a small cafe where the food is a truly authentic taste of Lebanese cuisine in a very casual mom and pop shop. If you go, don't miss their sweets-- halawet el jiben was delicious.
One of my favorite take-out places in the DMV. The food is spectacular and the service has always been prompt and courteous.
They area Mediterranean cafe with seating. Chicken shwarma is good. Baba ganouj is good. Spinach pies are ok but very lemony. The older woman talks really low or mumbles and coughs a lot so is often hard to understand her.
Amazing Mediterranean food. Delicious hummus and falafel. Super warm and friendly service. Will be patroning this great store again for sure!
4.5 Stars. Being A Bit Picky!
CUSTOMER SERVICE:
George welcomed us when we came in. This is a market-restaurant.
FOOD:
Mixed Kabob, one of the best I've had. It had three different types of meats. Plus the rice, hummus and tabuleth was SPOT ON!
My favorite, hummus was fresh, balanced and a beautiful flavor.
Tabuleth, was also fresh and not too lemony.
The different meats were also full of flavors. And the different textures made the experience one full of grace for the palate .
For a small family owned business this was a great experience.
PICKY PART:
Bathrooms need some tender loving care.
Dolmas were on the "vinegary" side. The flavors were not balanced. The vinegar flavor was overpowering.

Hands down, the best manakeesh!! If you happen to have any leftovers, they freeze well and make for a delicious quick breakfast!
The shawerma sandwiches are very good as well, and they have a decent selection of Mediterranean groceries.
We’re always greeted warmly, and feel like family when we visit. So blessed to have Mediterranean Gourmet a part of our community!
Awesome place, best tabbouleh ever; as of 2022, they have been here for 20 years. You can get rare things like fresh-picked green almonds and other things you won't find elsewhere!
They have both hot and cold food and a great menu to choose from.
Ridiculously delicious, light and tasty and very authentic Lebanese manakeesh (pies). Perfectly baked. Can't believe I haven't been here before.
Amazing food every time! Incredible lunch specials, just trust the chef and you'll be pleasantly surprised!
Always enquire about the specials! Delicious authentic food prepared by authentic people!
Great food with reasonable price love it.
Good Arabic food. Everything you order comes straight out of the oven and into your plate, including the bread. They offer a good selection of Mediterranean salads that are very good and healthy. This place is great for a group brunch especially when you do family style. The owners are very nice and accommodating.
