Omg. So i finally made it to this popular spot. It used to be a food truck. But they moved and it's now a carry out place. Really clean and nice. Side note : your blotted and hair will pick up the smell of food. Essy parking. And quick and easy to order. You choose rice or bring your own bag of chips. Then you choose chicken. Ground beef or steak. Followed by cheese. And cucumbers tomatoes. Cilantro. Everything was fresh. Clean. And huge portions of Such nice staff I would only add : taziki sauce is too much if sour cream. I prefer mine less thick

Loved this place and it was a Flavor Bomb. The staff is extremely helpful and it's a chipotle with much better flavor. My son loved it and enjoyed the chicken and rice bowl. I had everything on my bowl which was delicious. Just know the spice is spicy. It's a simple quick place to order and keep it moving. If you want to eat, they do have cute tables and chairs outside.

Fries

Tried the quesadilla this time and the fries. Fantastic! Regular chicken, green peppers, onion, cheese, more cheese. The portion was generous and I could only finish a quarter of it. Flavor was excellent. I also loved the seasoning on the fries, and dipped them in the yogurt sauce! Sooo good! Food was fresh and ready very quickly. Staff taking orders and making the food was also friendly. Love Flavor Hive!

Fresh, delicious Halal Cart style bowls! Flavor Hive has been on my radar for ages and I finally had the chance to try it! The owners are Bangladeshi and Egyptian- I could definitely taste the amazing flavors from these cuisines influence the bowls! I got a mix of chicken and lamb gyro- I liked the gyro better, but the chicken was good too just less flavor than I anticipated. The salad fixings were tasty and fresh. The white sauce and spicy green sauce were delicious! The rice had a good South Asian tasting flavor as well. Very well done and it was quick to receive my food despite crowds. Ambiance is chill, it's near the McDonald's, but in an empty parking lot with ample spaces. I'd come again! I wanted their Date Chai, but they ran out! So I'll so come back for another bowl plus have their chai!! Perhaps I'll visit their Brick and Mortar shop in Annandale in the future!

We heard about it and had to try it. Flavor Hive was all that we heard and more. My family brought our bags of chips and each was loaded with flavor. We liked it so much we sat outside in the cold and enjoyed our bags .

You get a good amount for the price, about $14 for this big bowl. The service was quick. There isn't seating inside but they have a couple tables outside.

Easy to find. Well lit area. The staff was kind and the lines moved fast. Food was really good. I would suggest eating in your car or brining a chair and sit outside your car to enjoy your food. Bring your favorite beverage. Get extra sauce. The sauce on top is not enough to last throughout the entire bag of chips. Heck, next time I might bring an aluminum pan or bowl so the sauce is on every chip. Hands down for $14 (my total) this can easily feed a family of 4 or five. My husband and I didn't finish the entire bag. I'd definitely go back!

Krazy Chicken and Gyro Loaded Fries
Jerran N.

I heard about Flavor Hive and wanted to give them a shot. Not really my cup of tea but I decided to go anyway. Customer service is great. They do a wonderful job of limiting the lines. There are several stations where you can take your order as well as people walking around. They are good with suggestions and things run pretty smoothly. I personally ordered the chicken quesadilla while my kids both ordered Doritos Bags. I grabbed my wife the loaded fries. The bang for your buck is insane. They really pour on the food. I have no clue how people can eat a large bag in one sitting. They have to be taking half home. The food comes out piping hot. The chicken quesadilla was hot. You can taste the peppers and chicken. I'm not a peppers guy but wanted to give them a shot anyway. Without the peppers I probably would have LOVED it. Overall it was a cool experience. I wish there was someplace to sit down and eat beside my car or trunk but that's expected with a food truck. Some type of signage would be helpful as it is behind a big building and I wasn't sure if I was headed in the right direction. Cool spot. Everyone should try it at least once.

It's a pickup-only spot with just a couple of tables outside, so seating is limited. I ordered the regular chicken bowl -- since there weren't many people, service was quick and the place wasn't crowded. The food was fresh, delicious, and the service was great.

Gyro Pouch
Shakira R.

I have had Flavorhive on my must-try list since July 2024 before it went viral. However, every trip to the DMV area usually involved me popping in and out - so when I finally had a long weekend in the region - it was go time! Flavorhive offers rice bowls, quesadillas, pita pouches, loaded fries, and other items. I decided to grab the most popular option: a walking taco chip bag for $10. I stopped at the grocery store and purchased blue corn chips, which would make my nutritionist proud. At the Alexandria location, there were several trucks, and to better control the crowd flow - one truck was responsible for payments, and then you would go to the other trucks to fulfill your order. The walking taco offers various protein options: chicken, lamb gyro, ground beef, and falafel. I grabbed the lamb gyro with all the veggies - tomato, cucumber, cilantro - minus the onions. There are two sauce options - green (spicy) and white. Initially, I didn't want any sauce, but after sampling it - I had to pour the white sauce all over. Was the 6+ months wait worth the hype? Yes, of course--the creaminess of the tzatziki sauce paired so well with the tenderness of the lamb and veggies. It was so filling I could eat the leftovers two more times (reheat in the air fryer).

I tried the new Annandale location. I luckily joined the line before it wrapped around the building. I know what you're thinking, another chicken/gyro platter place. I had to see what the hype was about and I kind of GET IT. This is probably one of the best cheap eats in the DMV. It's a fresh plate of delicious chicken and rice. I'm big on quality food and this was as fresh as it gets. You might have to wait 30 mins but it's worth it. They also do a BYOC option, where you bring a bag of chips and they load it up with meat, veggies and sauce. Excited to try!

Gyro Over Rice
Don B.

As much as I wanted to love this spot, it was just average. This spot has gone viral for their antics. The staff was very friendly, it's a food truck so you won't get a 5 star restaurant experience. The matcha soda was surprisingly good. A good combination of a sweet, earthy, carbonated drink. Sounds weird, but it works. A must try for all the matcha lovers out there. The quesadilla was cheesy, but the chicken seemed to lack flavor. Once the white and green sauces were added to it, it helped it out a lot. The rice bowl was a huge portion. You could feed two people off that bowl, the ingredients were fresh, but once again, the sauce carried the flavor. Go ahead and check it out for yourself.

Hammed A.

An excellent food truck experience at this Flavor Hive on Duke Street. The food is delicious and the customer service is always good. Their ordering system is very well thought out and efficient. The rice bowl is one of the best I've ever had among all cuisines. The business recommends not modifying the ingredients and flavor combinations to experience maximum flavor to which I agree. The fresh ingredients and sauces are an excellent combination. The portions are also epic. I wish they would open locations in MD. An overall very good experience and one worth experiencing for yourself. I'll continue to travel to this one.

Even though crowded, it was warm and welcoming. We got a seat quickly as we were greeted by the friendly host. We were greeted at the table by our server, Maybeline. She brought out water quickly, made some recommendations and came right back to take our order. We had the fajitas and birria, steak and shrimp tacos. They were all so flavorful, as were the black and pinto beans. Even the chips and salsa were delicious. All in all it was a great Friday find! Go check it out!

On our last visit, we got the chicken fajitas, and the grilled chicken was so flavorless, tough, and honestly, hard to eat. The chicken definitely needs to be marinated and seasoned, and it was neither. Queso often comes out lukewarm and overly thick. Birria tacos were good, per usual. Also, my husband and I have definitely questioned the amount of tequila that they are putting in the margaritas. We usually have one or two (and while not looking to get drunk lol) it definitely seems as if there is little tequila in these margaritas (especially if you buy a pitcher!). The margaritas taste like straight lime. Tequila has a flavor (which is one of the reasons why I love a margarita!).It is NOT present at all in the Kiki margaritas. Service is fine. Nothing spectacular. It honestly depends on who you get...some servers are clearly more attentive than others.

We saw people give positive remarks about your food, and so as lovers of Mexican food and coming from the N.E. we were excited to try a new Mexican place! I'm not sure how you were given such good reviews because nothing was great about it. So disappointing on all fronts. The service was horrible - she didn't smile, she basically came up to the table and asked us what we wanted. Then when we said it was our first time and we needed some time to look, she walked off. No personality whatever throughout. The margharitas were so bland, full of juice and LUKE WARM - for 20.00 - that we ordered an extra shot - which she forgot until she stopped by 15 minutes AFTER our meal already came. The food was terrifically bland as heck. Nothing was seasoned well at all. We asked for the manager, and one said he was one of them. He was basically useless. He didn't apologize. He came back to our table and wanted to see if we wanted something else, this is after waiting forever for our first food. He didn't offer to take off anything, not that would allow - but it's called great customer service, which this place sorely also lacked. Then, clueless, asked if we wanted to wrap up our food that we did NOT like. The fajita was dry and hard - chx, steak, shrimp and over the top fried cod. No flavor in either rice or beans. Enchalada with chicken was so bland and boring. The sauce on top seemed like a tomato sauce from a can. Service/food/drinks were all bad. If that's the standard the people seemed to like around here, that's telling. Best part of the place, cold water. Amen to that.

I don't make it out to Alexandria too often, but since it was a halfway point between a friend and…read moreme, it worked out perfectly. My friend chose Don Taco because it's one of his favorite spots, and he kept raving about how great the tacos were. And because really, you can't go wrong with chips, salsa, and drinks for a quick happy hour. The salsa which is not pictured had a great smoky kick, the tacos were very flavorful, fresh and hot. The host and waitress were very sweet, kind and attentive. The atmosphere was pretty cool, nothing to complain about. A lot of space, we sat upstairs which I enjoyed. Unfortunately, this place isn't handicap accessible so if you're unable to walk 2 flights of stairs this wouldn't be the a great option. Thank you Don Taco Staff

I visited after my yoga party, and one thing I really appreciated was that they were able to…read moreaccommodate our large group at the last minute. We had the entire upstairs area to ourselves, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The restaurant was clean, and I loved the mini fans placed throughout the space--perfect if you're feeling a little too warm or have enjoyed a few drinks! As for the service, it was a bit hit-or-miss. The young lady who took our orders was pleasant, but it took quite a while for drinks to come out. There were also several missing items from people's orders, which caused some frustration since those items had been ordered well in advance. Now, onto the food--the real star of the experience! Everyone in our group enjoyed their meals and had great things to say. I ordered a salmon taco, which I actually saved and ate the next day for lunch, and it was still delicious. The queso, however, wasn't a favorite among our group. On the other hand, the chips and salsa were a hit. The mocktails were excellent, and everyone seemed to enjoy their cocktails as well. Despite a few service hiccups, the food, drinks, and atmosphere made for a great experience. I would definitely visit again.

The rest of us ordered the ground beef enchiladas. They come with Mexican rice and refried black beans. I thought the enchiladas were good but really needed substantially more cheese and red sauce because they were kinda dry. But there was a question about the preparation of the margaritas. JP requested his first margarita be agave free (i.e. not sweet). It turned out great. But when JP and our friend ordered another round, the second round was yellowish orange instead of green, and they were sweet. Our server insisted the margaritas were made the same way the second time. She did agree to have them re-made, but the remade ones were identical to the ones that we sent back. Since I don't drink margaritas and don't have a vested interest in that aspect of Tacos and Tequila, I'd like to come back to further explore their menu.
