Had friends drive far to play tennis, and Capital Doner was one of the only restaurants in the area that was open past 9pm. We opted for the beef wrap combo that came with fries and a drink. You're able to let them know how you want it topped which is nice. It was delicious and was the perfect sharable portion for a late night eat - not too light, not too heavy. I also appreciated the complimentary lentil soup from the restaurant while waiting for our food. It was super delicious and warmed the soul. Food came out pretty quickly too! Didn't wait more than 10 minutes. There's a lot of seating and at night, lots of parking. I recommend it as a great spot for late night eats with friends if in the area! read more

Went back again, ordered catering for 45 people. 20 wraps chicken + 2 wraps beef and 4 family sized mix Arabic platter. They offered delivery to my home adress although I live in Fairfax. Good arrived warm and juicy highly recommended! It's very clean food and very kind service. They have updated their prices and it's very on budget! read more

Capital Doner - I ordered the family mix platter and I was very impressed with portion and the size. SHAWARMA Family SIZE! Mixed Grilled Chicken and Beef - Turkish Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

I happened to be in the neighborhood and it was almost 9, and I saw that they were open so I thought I'd give this place a try. What a great sandwich, initially I wasn't impressed with how it looked but the flavor was phenomenal. The sauce is a 10 out of 10. I am definitely coming back here in the near future. I was greeted upon entry and food was made, and I was out the door in less than 10 minutes. read more

Spectacular food! Very good portions and very tasty. I just came here a little after they opened today. Appreciate that they were open on a holiday! Very convenient location. Spacious store. Menu is not very big, but they got all i wanted. Doner is what i look for. Found them from New York. Came here for a little rest and have food. Very prompt service. Thank you Faris. read more

Is this the best Shawarma in DMV? - Episode 2 Technically this is a Doner which is the Turkish version of a Shawarma. In some cases calling a Doner Shawarma is a criminal offense but who is going to arrest me on Yelp?! This place is next to my favorite coffeeshop so bonus points for that. The staff is lovely! They do have a nice setup and a spacious sitting area which is reminiscent of an actual Doner shop. If you have ever been to Turkey you would know. Their wraps are delicious there is no doubt about that. I would definitely keep this chicken wrap in my top of the DMV. 4.2/5 I would definitely recommend this to you all. read more

Yum!! Food hits the spot and is a quick spot. It's a little pricey for what it is but it so good. Service is quick and attentive. Inside is like a diner. read more

Chicken Shawarma is one of my favorite dishes from the Middle East. For me, the lavash must be generously filled with well seasoned chicken, briny pickles and pungent garlic sauce (toum). On all these factors, a Capital Doner did well. I would've preferred a thicker slice for the chicken and maybe toasting the wrapped Shawarma on the flattop a bit to get a contrast in texture, which is typically how they serve it in the Middle East. Maybe a little salt on the fries couldn't hurt either. The service is pretty quick and friendly, there's plenty of seating available, and the prices are reasonable.I recommend not overfilling your wrap with too many toppings when you order, but do as you will. I look forward to coming back soon. read more

Capital Doner - Chicken shawarma combo - Turkish Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

Newly opened, this capital doner location is prime real estate on Wilson blvd and should serve as a comfortable and clean late night location for anyone craving doner at all hours. The serving sizes are more than generous, and when you are adding toppings the staff is more than happy to indulge requests for "everything" even if not all the flavors go perfectly together. The man at the front desk was kind enough to give me some baklava while I waited for my order and it was delightful with so much flavor packed into a few small bites. I polished my plate, and will definitely be back to try some other items on the menu. read more

Charge a transaction fee even if you pay with cash. No free water. You have to pay. Pita more meat. Combos are smaller meat portions. Beef tastes weird. Maybe lamb? read more

I got the beef wrap combo. The beef flavor was great, but I think there could've been more in the wrap. The wrap itself was really good though. Also, the fries were just eh. read more

Very attentive and thorough service, the portions were large. We got the chicken/beef wrap combo, the beef combo, and the Arabic plate (this was the favorite overall, the meticulous preparation of this dish is what really set them apart from other spots in our experience.) Will certainly return, must try pizza next. read more

Way over priced low quality food. The naan/flatbread is pre-made, use of frozen fries and most of their produce comes in a bag. Multiple items under a heat lamp including the meat. The cashier can barely understand/speak English and gets your order wrong. You better off going to the nearby food trucks. read more

Nice dining area and cool diner furniture. Staff seems nice too. Unfortunately, the food is lacking - flavorless and overpriced for being flavorless. read more

The food is so fresh and good. I've never left feeling still hungry. It is a great value for money. The people that work there are also spectacular. The vibe is 10/10 here. read more

Food was ok, ordered the hummus and pita appetizer, was told it no longer came with pita bread fortunately they provided us with one pita. My wrap was ok, my wife's Arab platter was pretty good. Service was average. Given the plethora of food options in the area, it's doubtful I will go back. My wife had previously been there and was very happy. Two meals, one appetizer and two waters with a tip was ~$75.00 for lunch. YMMV. read more

I went there between lunch and dinner so maybe the food is better when they are busier and the doner spits are cranked up. But my beef gyro was disappointing. It could have used a little more meat but the main problem is even after all the ingredients were added to the wrap, there was zero flavor! Plusses for Capital Doner were the staff were very friendly and the fries were good. But if I want a gyro I don't think I will come here again. If people read this before eating there, let me know if I'm crazy about the zero flavor or if you agree. I'll check back! read more

Very authentic Turkish street food. The tables are very clean and it's a nice atmosphere. The shawarma was really tasty. The biggest shawarma I've had in the DMV. I recommend the Capital Doner to experience real Turkish delicacies. I must 5 Star this new DMV eatery. read more

Capital Doner - Shawarma--beef and lamb - Turkish Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

It was decent customer service, a good amount of food combos /plates. The price is fair and the food was fresh. Chicken shawarma 6/10

Best falafel. Fresh and clean restaurant.Very friendly staff. Gokhan and his staff are the

Counter person said that meat was a lamb/beef mix. It was horrible! Dry, mealy, low-grade "meat" with a chalky consistency that left a waxy film on the roof of my mouth. Wrap was also cold and flavorless despite tzatziki and hot sauce. Burnt residue remains that tastes like a full ashtray smells. Need to brush my teeth and scrape my tongue ASAP. I can't believe they charge almost twenty dollars for this inedible lukewarm mess. I wish I had read the other reviews before eating here. I intended to go to Guajillo in the same plaza but it was closed. Rolled the dice on this place and lost. (Staff was friendly, though) 12:30 PM Public Service Announcement: After an unpleasant post-dining episode, I did some research - the restaurant was cited on November 6, 2025: 10: 6-301.11 No hand soap provided at the hand sink in the back of the kitchen. PIC provided hand soap (Corrected). 10: 6-301.12 No paper towels provided at the hand sink in the back of the kitchen. PIC provided paper towels (Corrected). Corrected, sure, but for how long? The fact they need to be told to use soap to wash their hands before meal prep speaks volumes. read more

Best doner in USA, period. It is exactly same I had in Istanbul. Doner with rice bowl is to die for. Yesterday I had a large TO GO order & they packed it exactly how I suggested. Highly recommend read more

This place is entirely subpar Döner. The bread is in actuality a tortilla instead of pita bread or anything similar. Food takes forever even when there's no one else there. And it's overpriced for small portions. read more

I would like to know why my chicken wrap took such a long time to make and was so expensive ($20 with a can of soda).

Absolutely love the food and staff! It's rare to find Turkish Iskender and döner of this quality in the U.S. I'm thrilled they've opened a branch in the DMV area. I couldn't even wait to finish my meal before writing this review that everything's that good. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a five-star experience! read more

Incredible food and staff. Great place to pick up or eat in - the vibes are also great in the restaurant. We love the wraps, and the servings sizes are very generous with fresh produce and wonderfully cooked meat. We come about once a week - it's always awesome. Highly recommend if you like donor kebabs!!! read more

Capital Doner is a warm, friendly spot offering delicious, authentic Turkish food. Whether you're grabbing a quick bite or enjoying a full meal, the flavors are fresh and satisfying--truly the closest thing to being in Istanbul without leaving DC. read more

Came in and had the Gyro on pita. You can get it in pita or in a wrap. It was excellent. The service was good and the ambiance was nice with I think, Turkish music. The gyro with hummus reminded me of the ones I used to get in Israel. read more

Doner was delicious! I got the beef wrap combo with fries and drink. Friendly staff and fast service. Will definitely be returning.

We had lunch today and completely enjoyed the beef wrap and tandoori wrap. We both liked the choice of sauces and my husband was given an extra sauce for dipping his fries. We were pleasantly surprised to be served tea in a small glass decanter that sat in a pretty ceramic dish. Nice touch and seemed authentic. The restaurant was spotless as were the restrooms. The people working there were friendly and pleasant. Overall a great addition to Rosslyn! read more

We tried both beef and chicken doner wraps. Both were good, chicken was better seasoned, so would probably order that again. Great options for toppings. Portion size was great, super friendly staff, we'll be back. read more

This is hands down the best döner in the DMV. Everything is fresh, the flavors are rich and well-balanced, and the quality is consistently excellent. You can really taste the authenticity in every bite--just like the döner you'd get in Turkey. Whether you're craving something quick or looking for a satisfying, flavorful meal, this place delivers every time. read more
