Bonn Boni - a plate of food on a table - Food Trucks Near Me

The flavor that they are pumping out of this tiny little trailer/cart/mini food truck deal is serious. First of all, everything we had was wonderful. We decided to get the platter that included a bit of all of the proteins. So we got to taste the falafel, lamb shawarma, and chicken shawarma. The chicken shawama looked so good on the spit that I actually complimented the woman who was working and she seemed flattered. They were both VERY nice women who were working and you could tell that they cared about the product. The platter also included quinoa, rice, salad. And the four sauces. Well 1. Garlic Sauce: This trophied for us. Me and T were all about this garlic sauce. 2. Mayo based sauce: Mixed well with the garlic sauce. 3. Spicy Red sauce: Ok, this sauce is not kidding around. It is not a comedian, it is not punny, it is not yanking your chain. The seriousness of this spicy sauce is head spinning. 4. Tahini: Tahini was a solid version of the stuff. VERY affordable too! NO compliants ALL the accolades EASY to see why it has 5 solid stars read more

Had a yummy Lamb Schwarma sandwich from the Bonn Bonni truck today, parked in an alcove on 15th St NW downtown between L & M streets. My only regret was the homemade pickled something-or-other that was part of the toppings -- it was too sour for my tastes. I plan on going back to try the chicken schwarma, maybe on a salad, in a couple of days. read more

Bonn Boni is a staple of the Ballston lunch scene, and after 4 years of working in the area, I am just discovering why there is always a long line. The falafel platter is worthy of a round of applause. A very reasonable (especially by Ballston standards) $8 will buy you six freshly made falafels alongside a generous mound of basmati rice and a mixed greens salad, all topped with their homemade sauces and aiolis. The textures and amount of flavor packed in this little dish is amazing! The garlic from the falafels and the aioli; the crunchiness and buttery taste of the homemade - or at least what I think are homemade - croutons; the sweetness from the corn; the cardamom in the basmati. Man! And everything comes together just beautifully. Absolutely, one of the best dishes you'll have from a food cart. And then there's the Nutella cookie. The owner recommends heating it lightly for the chocolate and Nutella to melt inside. There's no better sight that splitting one in the middle and watching all that chocolate-hazelnut-ty goodness ooze out (cue moaning sounds). It's easily the best food invention created, and even if you don't think so, it's the perfect indulgent ending to a great meal. The only reason this isn't a 5-star review is because I was mistakenly overcharged as if I had substituted quinoa for rice on my platter (I would never do that, for the record). read more

Okay, so I think it's appropriate to give this food truck 5 STARZ. I knew the food had to be good, because there was a huge crowd waiting on their food..... 1st off the cookies they put out for customers to sample were maybe top 5 I've ever had (very strong statement). I ordered the chicken shwarma sandwitch. I wanted the platter (but they ran out of rice). He sandwitch was sooo good. The meat was marinated (I could tell by the flavors). I love the roasted veggies they add. They also put 3 different homemade sauces on it, which all three were amazing! I will definitely be back .... a hidden gem in Ballston. I may even double back again tomorrow. read more

My all time favorite food cart in Ballston area during lunch time. Every time I see this place I immediately walk that direction to order before there is a line. I always get either the Jolip, or a shwarma here with lamb meat. The lamb is amazing, and I love that you can get your order with quinoa. I like to think that I am eating healthy when I'm here lol. The dish also comes with decent helping of vegetables, and there's about two servings in one order. It's almost impossible for me to portion the serving as I typically end up eating the entire bowl in one sitting =P. I will definitely continue coming here every time I see the cart =D. P.S. Their cookies are to do die for! I only got a bite in from a friend, and it was enough to end my cravings. read more

Not to mention the staff that is super friendly always responsive. You guys should make this a fast casual restaurant. read more

I don't like using hyperbole but this was the best lamb wrap I'd ever eaten in my life. I just had this for lunch today. I literally haven't eaten out since the quarantine but I kept walking past their food truck today while I was working at the Watergate @ Landmark. They were doing brisk business & it was too convenient to not try. Plus it was inexpensive. One of the young men took my order & I deferred to what have put on my wrap other than the lamb. Good decision on my part because it was amazing. From what it sounds alike I got the wrap with everything on it. Sauce, salad, etc. I plan on having more in furrier the next time I'm near by. Bravo Bonn Boni. read more

I've got to give credit where credit is due. Decided to give Bonn Boni another shot and they did not disappoint. Ordered the Chicken Shawarma sandwich which was outstanding! The pita bread was fluffy and delicious. They put plenty of chicken in the sandwich, along with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, cucumbers, and 3 different sauces. The sauces seemed to compliment each other really well together in the sandwich. All the ingredients tasted fresh and flavorful. I must have finished my sandwich with 5 minutes of sitting down and could have easily had another. Sandwich is definitely much better than the bowl. I will be back! read more

Bonn Boni - Chicken Shawarma - Food Trucks Near Me

As usual, Iman, pulled out all the stops today. Chicken Shwarma platter was excellent. The Tarts are mind blowingly good. Amani is always cheerful and greets you by name. Thank you Iman for your excellent food. I just wish you were here more than two days a week! read more

I went to an event in Rosslyn and Bonn Bonni was one of the food trucks around for dinner. Ordered the bowl with chicken. Decided to have 2 of the sauces (I didn't get the spicy sauce as at that particular moment I didn't want a spicy dish), and I thought they meshed well. I was satisfied with the level of meat (although I would have liked more veggies, personally). I've heard really good things about the sandwiches, so next time will definitely try it. I didn't get the cookies, but my friends did and they were excellent. read more

We had Bonn Boni come to our work event and at first I was skeptical, the cart's appearance and I had never heard of it before. Boy was I wrong. I had a chicken shawarma sandwich with the yogurt and spicy sauce, it was delicious! It almost tasted more like chicken kabob or looked like kabob to me, so that was a big plus. I personally don't have the best experiences with shawarma but this sandwich was so good, I still think about the taste! I also had the cookie, OMG it was amazing! It was kind of sunny that day, the chocolate was melting and it became a warm cookie it was perfect. The inside has Nutella, it couldn't get any better. I can't wait to eat it again! read more

I hesitate to write a review and award 5 stars to Bonn Boni for fear that the line will get even longer! But I can't hold back -- this food is amazing! I've had nearly everything on the menu, and I can honestly say that eating here is the highlight of my work week. The lovely Iman and her crew prepare delicious Middle Eastern inspired lunch food and trust me when I say this -- seek this food cart out when it's near you and run to buy something super flavorful, high quality, and yummy! read more

This food truck was amazing when I had it. I always crave schwarma and this hit the spot. The owner is very friendly, has fair prices, and the food is amazing. I ordered the lamb which was hot and fresh, tipped with fresh ingredients, and a side of rice. It was awesome and I even got a Nutella filled cookie for dessert which was soft and gooey. Very impressed and if you see this food truck, stop in and order something, you won't be disappointed. read more

Fantastic Food Truck with great service. They magically remember most of our names (almost 1000 people in our building) and even remember our orders which is crazy! Love seeing them every week. The food is great quality and I recommend the hot sauce :) read more

This place is amazing. Each dish is an artistic masterpiece. You can tell the owner pours her heart and soul into her food. I prefer the chicken and felafel dishes over the lamb, but that's probably just my own personal taste. And the cookies... wow. read more

I first avoided this food truck the first few times I saw it because I thought it was French, judging from the name and graphics all over the cart, and I really dislike French food. However, after browsing the other food trucks in the Ballston area, my gut told me to give Bonn Boni another look and to my pleasant surprise, it is Middle Eastern type of food with sweets. The woman taking orders settled my ease with her presence. After placing my order for a falafel sandwich and a triple chocolate cookie, I somehow felt that it was going to be good and I'm a pretty picky eater too. Omg, the falafel sandwich IS so good- just great! The three homemade sauces she put in it were fabulous together and the falafels had a very nice texture and interesting flavor and are green- which is a color that might be unexpected since yellow is more common but I liked it. As for the triple chocolate cookie, it is amazing! I don't even have a big sweet tooth at all and am so picky with desserts, but it was made to be so gooey and intense in deep chocolate flavor, that I actually finished the whole thing! This is my new favorite food truck and I am so glad that I gave them a chance! read more

Bonn Boni is one of the best food carts in Arlington! They often have new menu items and different seasonal toppings. They even make their own sauces--the white gold is my favorite.

Iman made a wedding cake for us that was simply amazing. I wanted something unique and something with an Asian flair to it. She was receptive to our ideas. What we came up with was an almond cake with a strawberry and lychee filling. Our guests had never had anything like that and I think it was a good way to get many of our guests introduced to the awesomeness of lychee. Our friends still talk about how good the cake was and our reception was in September. Will definitely have Iman make the cake for our next event. read more

I had my wedding back in July at Fredericksburg Square and Iman made the cake. Not only was the cake absolutely delicious but Iman was very professional, accommodating and had great ideas. Her prices were also very affordable. I would recommend her to anyone in the Fredericksburg/NOVA area! read more

Bonn Boni - Our wedding cake! By: Bonn Boni - Food Trucks Near Me

I went to their cart in ballston on Friday and the entire experience was just amazing. I got the lamb furrito and it was an explosion of deliciousness - I would have never thought to pair those food items together but it all works so well! The service was excellent and even when they got busy the women working the cart were attentive, kind, and professional. 10 stars bonn boni cant wait for lunch next week! read more

I've been a customer/friend of Iman's since her farmer's market days. Back then she only sold baked goods and they were some of the best I've ever tasted. The nutella chocolate chip cookie is still my go-to and one of my FAVORITE desserts ever. Since then, Bonn Boni has evolved and brought my tastebuds nothing short of PURE joy. The lamb shwarma with basmati rice is my favorite - the chicken comes in a close second. Do yourself a favor and check this cart out if you're in the area. Trust me, your mouth and tummy will thank you. read more

Just had Bonn Boni yesterday for the first time and it has potential to be one of my regular go-to food trucks for lunch. I didn't catch the name of the lady who was working the food truck, but she definitely made an impression on me with her delightful, smiley greeting. Excellent service is really big for me, so that is EXTRA points! I ordered the combo platter which came with rice and a generous portion of meat. My first thought was that the ingredients are higher quality than some of the other food trucks. The rice was well-cooked, not dry and the meat was well-seasoned. The greens looked fresh and not old or wilted. The garlic aioli sauce was superb. The portion size is pretty generous and ended up saving my leftovers for dinner. Lastly, you also have to try the cookies. They are awesome! Actually, I saved one cookie for later (they come in a 2 pack) and accidentally dropped it on the floor, but since the cookie was so good there was so way that I could throw it away so I stealthily and quickly scarfed it down (5 second rule right?). Ain't no sense in wasting a perfectly moist, chocolatey cookie. Anyways, don't judge me and go check out Bonn Boni. You won't regret it. read more

This is easily one of the top meals I've had from a food cart/truck in DC. Had the lamb shawarma platter with quinoa and it was outstanding. Fresh greens, quinoa with roasted veggies, pickled beets, fresh croutons, perfectly seasoned lamb, and a fresh dressing. Don't miss this cart if you see it! read more

Best food cart in Ballston!!!! I love their delicious chicken and falafel sandwich. Flavorful, fresh, and great customer service!

Iman was the champ! I am going to be honest as I was worried for the first time I ever worked with any pastry shop on a customized cake, especially that the cake won't come out the way I imagined it to be. First off, Iman was very honest, patient, and helpful throughout all the email communication with me. She quoted me a very reasonable price for a hookah-shaped cake (with hookah of 14-16 inches) and a very delicious chocolate ganache with chocolate cake and vanilla icing, which fed the group of 22 people. Her price was very competitive compared to other shops who specialize in customized cake such as Fluffy Thoughts or Tysons Cake. And best of all, Iman agreed to do it within a very short notice as we settled payment on Friday and she delivered the cake the next Monday. I was pleasantly surprised with the cake even though I have seen other cakes that Iman created. The cake was truly a piece of art and I could see that Iman put a lot of thoughts and efforts into creating the cake. I will definitely contact Iman again if we ever need another customized cake in my life :). read more

I tried Bonn Boni for the first time at a Roslyn outdoor movie and it was fantastic. I got the chicken shwarma platter with quinoa and my friend got the same with basmati. I don't know what they put in that quinoa but it was AMAZING. The chicken was so, so tender and the aioli tied everything together. The women working there were really sweet, too. Can't wait to try the other items on the menu. read more

The Bonn Boni food truck is out of this world amazing! I have brought my lunch to work for 5 years. One day I didn't, so I ventured outside and found Bonn Boni in Ballston on Thursday. I had a chicken shawarma platter with salad and rice and all of the amazing sauces. It was incredible! I now leave my lunch at home and visit this food truck EVERY Thursday. :) read more

Walked by this cart a few times but never stopped because it was kind of small and I didn't know what to expect. Wish I had stopped sooner! Ordered the Furrito with Lamb and was not disappointed - healthy amounts of meat and falafel, delicious veggies, and flavorful/spicy sauces. Will definitely be back! read more

Iman is such a talented cook and baker. Everything that I have tasted from her savory dishes to her sweets have been beautiful to look at and absolutely delicious. I've had her Nutella stuffed chocolate chip cookies, which are so rich and chewy. Her Russian tea cakes are surprisingly light and melt in your mouth. Her gluten free Nutella chocolate cake is my favorite chocolate cake of all time. Initially I thought gluten free=healthy chocolate cake, and that sounds unappetizing. But, man, that cake was so good! Super moist dark chocolate cake, topped with a thick layer of fudge and sprinkled with chocolate covered espresso nuggets. Her cupcakes are delicious as well. I've had the baklava cupcakes and the berry cupcake. Her savory dishes from her cart are so delicious. I love the spicy chicken shawarma, which is bursting with flavor and has no nasty grease you get from other Mediterranean carts. The quinoa and veggie platter goes so well with the flavors from the chicken shawarma. Definitely get tahini sauce. read more
