Highly recommend giving Sizzling Kabob & Grill a try! The owner's warm hospitality made the experience even better.

The gyro was one of the best I've had! The tzatziki sauce was a homemade recipe with depth to it. The meat was not dry, and perfectly crisped on the sides. It was a very generous portion of meat! I feel they could actually do a little less in the future. The fries were well seasoned and freshly fried. The restaurant was clean, welcoming, and it was a perfect place for a quick and delicious bite. My favorite part was definitely the two men running it- I wish them all the success!

They aren't stingy on the meat, the quality is great, and the service is timely. If you're new to ordering, get the combo. One thing I did learn is that if you order online, it doesn't ask if you want a spicy sauce (and I like spicy), so the other day I called it in, and they offered it, and I loved the sauce. Try it

They don't have falafel, but I highly recommend any of their vegetable sides. I got the 4 veggie plate and loved everything. They make amazing flatbread that is worth the trip alone. After lent, I still go back and like everything I've tried. They are extremely friendly. And whoever is at the counter will warmly welcome you. They have a pretty simple menu and tap to pay conveniently located on the counter. There is nothing in particular I would recommend as everything I've tried I'd order again. I'm catholic and would recommend the veggie plate during lent. I will say that the drink options are common and basic bottles in a refrigerator. Don't let the plain name in front fool you. This place is worth a try. I don't preorder and have never had a long wait. If you eat in, they offer you warm tea that is really appreciated during winter.

Incredible hospitality and fantastic food. We couldn't resist trying many things from the menu. Our…read moreserver was the owner, and it was so clear he was passionate about the food! He gave detailed explanation about the dishes that made it taste even better. And the flavors were on point--from the refreshing sourness of the shafuta to the crisp fatoosh salad to the veggie marboka (so good slathered with the green chilis!) to the lamb fasha with fresh hot bread. Flavor and texture combos you won't find elsewhere! And of course we tried the spiced Yemeni coffee. When I mentioned it was my sister's birthday, he brought out a delicious, complementary piece of semolina cake with a honey syrup and two cups of shai So good, and even better with a little shai poured on top! From a cost perspective, you get large portions for a fair price, so be adventurous. Come for the food, stay for the hospitality. This is not an in-and-out-spot: it's a time to linger and enjoy. This place has to be next on your list of places to try.

The menu has a lot of options, so I guided my choice by photos in reviews. I ended up going with the kofta lamb, which was served with rice, a side salad, and grilled onions and peppers. Overall, it was delicious. I loved that everything tasted fresh and homemade. The prices were a tad bit elevated (entrees average $25-30), especially for Fredericksburg, but I'm glad I tried it. Overall, the ambiance was welcoming and authentic.

The restaurant is clean, a full bar, plenty of seatings indoors and out. There were 8 items ordered: 1) Greek Salad 2) Roasted Garlic Butter Wings 3) Taco Pizza 4) Soujouk 5) Musaka 6) Fried Mushrooms 7) Hummus 8) Mushroom Swiss Burger. All the appetizers were delicious individually but as you make your own mini charcuterie as I did. I took a piece of the naan bread, stack it with the hummus, musaka and topped with a half piece of soujouk. The combination of each element made this custom bite simply fantastic. The roasted garlic butter wings were crispy, tender but didn't taste of the garlic only butter. They were still good. The fried mushrooms were on point that were served with a dipping sauce. I really wanted the taco pizza to be awesome but it was lacking flavor. All of the toppings were generous portion, had a nice under carriage but just missing that one component. Alexa the server was very attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. The atmosphere was comfortable and relaxing. I would make another visit to try other items on their menu.

The restaurant is clean and tidy, but small. (Note: this location was previously a Capriotti's Sandwich Shop, and the space was originally one business that was split in half for two separate food places.) This Stafford location marks their fourth in Virginia, and they have approximately 50 locations overall. Ordering can be done on a kiosk or at the counter. The menu includes platters, gyros, and salads, as well as burgers and chicken wings, tenders, or nuggets. For the platters, gyros, and salads, you can choose between chicken, lamb, combo, falafel, kofta, or fish. The platters come with French fries, salad and rice (regular or spicy). They have several sauces including white, hot, green, and barbecue. I ordered the chicken platter, regular rice, salad with no onions, and white sauce on the side. When I tell you that this food was flavorful and the portions are big, man! The chicken was tender and had such great flavor. The "regular" rice was obviously not spicy but was full of flavor (cumin? cardamom? sumac? Whatever they seasoned it with was yummy). The fries were hot, crunchy, and coated with a tasty seasoning. They tasted great by themselves or dipped in the white sauce. The salad is good and was topped with an herbed, diced tomato-cucumber salad and delicious pickled cabbage. I look forward to trying other things on the menu, but it'll have to wait since I have so much food leftover from this platter, enough for at least one more meal but likely 2. :)
