The lamb and chicken combo over rice is my move: flavorful meat, plenty of food, and exactly the kind of late-night comfort meal that's probably not great for the belly but absolutely amazing for the soul. One tip: pickup is the move. It can get pretty expensive ordering through Uber, but when I pick it up myself, the value is excellent. They're also open late, which makes this place dangerously convenient on those nights when dinner somehow turns into 9 or 10pm. The team is always friendly and makes you feel welcome, which is a big part of why I keep coming back. Great lamb, great chicken, solid portions, and one of my favorite late-night spots in Arlington.

I like that they open pretty late and there is some hot, but not too sweet tea offered while waiting in line to order. All of us got the rice platter, which is prepared in a fast-casual style where we told them which proteins, vegetables, toppings, and sauces we wanted. COMBO OVER RICE - 11.99 This comes with half lamb/half chicken, rice, choice of veggies, and sauce. I got it with lettuce and tomatoes and a light amount of sauce. The chicken was really dry and bland, which was disappointing. It helped eating it with the vegetables and sauce. I enjoyed the lamb as it was well-seasoned. The portion size was huge, and I was unable to finish the whole platter even after swimming. We also shared a plate of large fries, which were freshly heated. They were probably previously frozen, but they were delicious for what it was.

So, here we were. The space was open, clean, and inviting. It reminded me of a number of restaurants I've visited in the Middle East, and particularly Dubai. Not fancy, so much as down-to-earth and inviting. My wife and I shared a Chicken shawarma platter and a plate of fries. Simple things first, the fries were perfection. Crispy on the outside, hot and tender on the inside, and tasty through and through. The shawarma had plenty of chicken over a bed of soft white rice and was accompanied by some salad. It was a perfect meal for a weirdly cold May afternoon. On our way out, I mentioned to the owner that the food was really good, because it was, and mentioned that the shawarma wasn't quite as tasty as some that I've had in my travels. His face brightened, and he said that next time I should ask for it a bit spicier. Next time I'm back, and there will be a next time, I'll ask for spicier. When you go, and you should, ask for "spicier" too.

I was warmly greeted and surprised at the number of vegetarian offerings and Mediterranean standards like swarma. I picked lamb and added a rice pudding for a treat. The lamb was so fresh and tender. Vegetables and rice were fresh and flavorful. Oh! The rice pudding was creamy and flavorful what a nice finish. But wait. They also carry Divont chocolates and date desserts. Those chocolates are heaven. Take a break and discover Astor, you'll be glad you did.

Love this place!…read more Whenever I go to Earl's Sandwiches, they always serve good sandwiches. Always a decent value for the quality sandwiches they sell and everything packed within two slices of bread, especially the meats! The meats are baked--prepared in house, so you know you're in for some good eats. My all time favorite here is the House Roasted Turkey Club! When I tell you this sandwich is stacked!....its an understatement. The turkey is house roasted and piled high.....And, so tender and juicy. This sandwich is a must try and I recommend. During lunch time frames, it could get busy but it is worth it. Wait times and queuing can be a bit long but it's fine for the sandwiches I get. Also, online ordering is available which help when you don't have time to wait. Not to mention, they provide an online tracker that lets you know when your order is almost ready or available which is very helpful when picking up your order online. It's very helpful when strap for time and you are in need for something quick or planning a drive to their shop. In all, you can't go wrong with this place. The vibe is casual. The interior is minimal and seating limited, but the sandwiches are on point. Definitely try this place when in the area or in the mood for a great "sammie"....upgraded from the days when your Mom used to brown paper bag it and make them for school lunch days! lol Eating here just gives me those kind of feels...... Enjoy! I highly recommend!!
