    Bowl with plastic piece
    Victor M.

    In general has been good, good quality ingredients and friendly staff. However, yesterday there was a black plastic thing I found on my food.

    Visiting my cousin and we stopped here for late lunch. I love that it's cafeteria style where you can build your own dish and I love all the vegan options. I got the bowl with mixed greens, white basmati rice, falafel, vegetable kafta, chickpea salad, crunchy chickpeas, and cilantro vinaigrette. It was hearty and delicious! The falafel had a little more of a kick than I usually like, but it was still well cooked and yummy. I devoured every last bite. Love having healthy "fast food" options! Love the tiles and the lighting inside too. Chill spot to enjoy a meal.

    FOOD- great! I got chicken then a little bit of everything for the toppings. It's like a healthy chipotle. OH and the cookie was 5/5. Best cookie I've ever had. SERVICE- absolutely 5/5. This was my first time at Mezeh and the lady was just so patient with me while also explaining what everything was. She was great! AMBIANCE- plenty of seats inside and a few outside. It was nice with booth, seats, high chairs. I would definitely come back!

    I got catering from Mezeh for a Bunco party with 12 friends. Ordering online was quick and easy. The food was ready on time, and packaged very well so nothing leaked out of the containers. Everything was delicious, and my friends raved over the variety of dips and delicious pita chips. I appreciate that the food had great flavor and the chicken was cooked to perfection! I would definitely go to Mezeh again!

    They are very generous with ingredients for the build your own bowl and they seem fresh and tasty. The counter person was helpful in describing the choices. The dining room is modern and clean. The music is appropriate though a bit loud.

    So glad to spot another Mezeh location. We were in the area and placed an order online. Quick and simple. Our order was ready in no time. Employees are friendly and everything was neatly wrapped. It's neat and clean inside the restaurant. We enjoyed our Mezeh bowls, the ingredients were fresh and flavorful as always. Their food is made from scratch and you can taste the difference. Always a good choice!

    Soft Opening Day, today!  Welcome to Centreville, Mezeh!!
    Norry H.

    Stopped by at this brand new location today with much joy as it is so close to where I am! Today is the soft opening day. As I was approaching the entrance, a Mezeh staff kindly opened the door for me and welcomed me. Thank you! When I was ordering my bowl, an experienced staff and a man who I assumed a manager were standing next to the staff who was making my bowl, making sure everything was set up properly. My bowl was great but the half pita was a little thin. It could have been because of a start up hiccup. Welcome to Centreville, Mezeh! I love your food and will fully support your business!

    Meh :/ Not so impressive I went there on Weekday afternoon for a late lunch/early dinner. I was waiting for Mezeh to open, but it was a disappointment in the end. Centreville one feels definitely different from Fairfax one. And let me explain why. There are few things that we noticed. 1. When my fiancé and I walked in, there was a couple who just began their ordering of their bowls. They already complained how The green looked unappetizing. The workers did not care to replace it with the freshly prepared greens immediately. And when we saw it, the greens (spring mix, kale, arugula, and spinach) were all either not fresh at all OR bottom edges. 2. Unlike the other Mezeh location, we both noticed how stingy workers were when they were serving, esp. meat. And no drink machine is equipped yet, which means no water, no soda, and no ice at the moment. 3. Inconsistent toppings :( My fiancé LOVES harissa, and he was looking forward to get it in his bowl, but they did not have harissa. 4. Stingy on overall ingredients ...... noticeably different from other locations. Overall, my experience was okay. Things that I mentioned above are adjustable so I'm willing to try again. However, I really hope they can improve on freshness of the ingredients.

    Mostly empty during the new covid norm most orders are to go. Great tasting bowls, salads and wraps. Choose your grains and proteins then pick from a wide array of dips, toppings and dressing. Beautiful modern interior,Mediterranean inspired. I wish they would have unsweetened drinks available for those who are diabetics. The premade juices are great however most of them are sweet. Water is always an option. Great fast causal dining option that is truly reasonable. Welcome to the hood!

    Up close pic of the steak

    I used to order from here and it was good. They give good portion and then kinda went downhill. I ordered again and see if they have improved. Well, the protein steak I asked for...omg...size has changed to little pieces of steaks. I dunno if I'll order again but we'll see. Look at the pics for the size of the steak and you can't even see it unless up close.

    Veggie Kefta Bowl

    Love the food and the service here. They have so many vegetarian options The staffs are so friendly and sweet here. Highly recommend this place.

    Another really good bowl at Mezeh. Like to know how they make the eggplant. Great combo with the many salads, rice, arugula lettuce and hummus. The chicken kebab is the bomb!

This was Tulip Grill before so I don't know what it looks like now since the hubby picked up our order. Parking is not too bad but be aware that it can get busy due to DD, Lantern Sushi & Roy's are nearby. They notified my hubby that they needed 5 more minutes to get all our order cooked, and put together. Minor comment- though I like the flavor both green and tamarind sauces were a little thin. I like a thicker sauce for dipping. Also the fries though well-seasoned could be crunchier. Still highly recommend trying them out. I have two more meals from my platter.

Everything on the menu is packing a fairly hefty punch of flavor, and the servings are generous. There was a short line when I arrived, but the counter-style service moved pretty quickly and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Sometimes counter-style is surly and brusque; not here. The staff go out of their way to make sure that you get all the toppings you might enjoy. As a first-time customer, I appreciated that. The shop itself is small with some seating but nobody was dining in; this was not because it's not popular (see the aforementioned line), I think they're just primarily geared towards takeout. I'll definitely be back, especially if I'm in the neighborhood anyway.

    Dining with my friend on Lebanese cuisine was a delightful culinary adventure filled with surprises…read moreand delights. Moussaka: A classic Lebanese dish. Eggplant and hummus were simmered until soft and flavorful, with a subtle smoky aroma. The addition of mint leaves enhanced the flavor. Bone Marrow: Beef tartare with bone marrow and pomegranate seeds--how interesting! The first two provided a rich, fatty texture and intense aroma, while the latter burst in your mouth occasionally, juicy, tangy, and refreshing. Brussels Sprouts: Brussels sprouts with grapes, walnuts, fig jam, and mint yogurt--a whimsical yet magical combination... The Brussels sprouts offered a fresh, vegetal aroma and a slightly roasted aroma; the walnuts provided a nutty richness and crunch; the fruit provided a fresh sweet and sour taste and plenty of juice; and the yogurt acted as a binder between the flavors while adding a touch of minty coolness. Duck Shawarma: My friend and I thought: ...Peking duck? The skin was soft, the meat tender, not gamey, with a subtle smoky flavor; the fig and lemon sauce was sweet and refreshing; the small pita pillows held the meat securely, better than the lettuce what might have been too cold. Lamb Stuffed Grape Leaves: Black rice was wrapped in grape leaves and simmered with minced lamb. The rice absorbed the fragrance of the grape leaves, similar to lotus leaves (my friend and I thought: lamb version of sticky rice chicken糯米雞...?). The lamb, however, was served separately at the bottom of the pot and didn't absorb much flavor; overall, it was intensely sour. In short, this dish was a bit oddly designed, and it was the only one we didn't finish because the sourness was unbearable. Pita Bread: The bread was thin yet chewy, with a rough, slightly powdery surface, making it substantial and satisfying. I especially loved the "everything wrapped in a big pancake" style! This restaurant is located on the wharf near the Potomac River and boasts beautiful floor-to-ceiling windows. The spring sunlight streamed in softly.

The restaurant itself is also really pretty and has a nice atmosphere for a lunch date or catching up with friends. Not quite a perfect experience for me personally, but definitely a strong 4 stars and I'd go back again.
