    This was my first time trying this place and it was much better than I expected it to be. The food was fresh and tasted amazing. There was so much to choose from and the staff let me try samples of things so I could decide if I wanted it or not. The one thing that I loved about this place was the fact that if you dine in you get actually glass plates and cups and silverware. I was not expecting that at all and I loved it. You order like a fast food restaurant but the glass plates and silverware makes the experience seem like youre dining in at a fancy restaurant. I would definitely come again to try different combinations of everything.

    Food was pretty good! I was skeptical with it being a chain, but the food was on point and their falafel was authentic. Very hard to find these days.

    Make your own bowl with chicken schwarma as the protein (proteins are extra). Very tasty. Not overly salty.

    My partner and I ate here a few months ago for lunch and enjoyed the meal. The place is comfortable and the food tasty. I recall not getting a real friendly vibe from the workers. (And it's something that I remember it all these months later.). Last night, I ordered delivery from UberEats, so this is about the delivery of two make-your-own bowls, a couple orders of falafel, and side orders of tabbouleh, pickled beets, hummus and tzatziki. Everything was delish. So much food, over half is going to be consumed today/tonight. I was impressed how everything was so well packed and labeled for delivery. I ordered two side portions of falafel (not ordered as part of the bowl, but as a separate side). Each is a nice portion of thin and well seasoned ingredients. One would have been plenty to share, but I'm not complaining. The bowl comes with a portion of pita. The dips come with pita chips, which we haven't tried yet.

    Even the receipt says TRAY. No kid wants it all mixed like this. Fail.

    Don't order their kids meals. Please just look at my picture. The food comes nothing like the ad shows with a tray with little pockets to separate the food, like any kid would want. What you get is everything plopped into one bowl. What kid wants hummus all over their chicken? My kid took one look and said "ew that's not mine." And he is right. It's nothing like the picture he pointed to on the menu. Now I have to get him a new dinner while mine gets cold because this place has an idiot with no children preparing kids meals. Even the receipt says it comes in a kids tray. And to top it off they forgot the chips that go with the hummus.

    falafel classic

    I'm indifferent. The food was ok, nothing spectacular, but also nothing wrong. I ordered the falafel classic. The falafels were fluffy and flavorful, the vegetables cooked on the crisp side of al dente. I requested extra olives and pickled radish and I got a look like I was from crazy town. Maybe because I spoke? Because I asked for something that wasn't on the pre-printed recipe list? Who knows... The service was also unremarkable. I wasn't greeted, and didn't get a send off, but wasn't also treated rudely. The store was nice and cool on a humid day (though beautiful). There is a nice patio direct to the store, which is shaded in the afternoon.

    Two bowls with chicken shawarma and chicken kebab!

    Very tasty! What's nice is, no matter what combination of items you choose, all the ingredients get along with each other. You can make a lot of original dishes out of it and they all taste unique! Service was nice, they are pretty hands off but accommodated our requests for tap water and double meat (there is a fee fyi). For a casual place the interior is really nicely designed and seems good for big or small groups.

    Lots of yummy things in here!

    Good reliable food with quick service. I love coming here after a workout! What I like about their model is their is no limit to toppings or dips. I absolutely love the veggie kefta - crispy on the outside and crumbly on the inside. The spicy hummus, yogurt dip, and spicy feta are my favorite dips - and a great balance to all the pickled veggie toppings (carrots, Turkish salad, onions, olives).

    Strawberry lemonade and bowl: salad with chicken
    Zoya F.

    My favorite healthy food option in Rockville/Gaithersburg. You can order in person, online, or through the app to get your bowl exactly how you want it! I've tried bases of salad and rice and toppings from chicken to lamb. All were flavorful and I got my daily dose of veggies from the hummus, cucumber, and other options. Staff are friendly and seating (except at rush hour) is plentiful. The house drinks are a little sweet for my taste, but everything else about the experience was perfect for the reasonable price point.

    Garlic steak pita
    Natalie T.

    I absolutely love this restaurant the inside dinning area was very clean plenty of seating. Restaurants was clean the food is always fresh made to order. Customers service is accommodating & welcoming. I called in my order I ordered a pita pocket. With garlic steak, veggies, classic hummus & feta cheese it was so good. And so fulling I literally have lunch for today & I purchased my food yesterday during lunch time. I highly recommend

    Family Pack
    Joanna C.

    Amazing discovery! Was craving Mediterranean food so checked my trusty Yelp app and found Mezeh. Ordered a Family Pack through their app, it was ready and out front at the pick-up time, and most importantly, it was delicious! Generous portions, great flavors, and lasted the 3 of us at least 2 meals. For the Family Pack items, we got: -Base: Kale and Brown Basmati Rice, both solid -Protein: Steak Shawarma: Yum! Juicy and well-seasoned -Toppings: Baba Ganoush (deliciously smoked flavor), Caramelized Eggplant (sweet and smoky and yummy), Roasted Vegetables (unfortunately a bit bland and soggy), and then the Sun-Dried Tomato Salad, Turkish Salad, Lebanese Tabbouleh (all solid) -Pita: Still warm! Went great with the Baba Ganoush Will definitely be ordering from here again!

    Chicken dish
    Min Z.

    Very nice and healthy fast food choice. Many selections and quite filling. It's a great place to stop by and have a quick bite. 3* to me means good and decent! I would definitely come back!

    Is there food halal?

    Yes, the meat (chicken, beef, and lamb) is halal, as was assured to me by either the owner or manager.

I normally don't eat at Cava because healthy food doesn't typically excite me, however, since I have been eating poorly lately I decided to give this a try. I came with a colleague for lunch. I decided to get a custom warm bowl ($9.95) which included: herb roasted chicken ($4.65), roasted tofu ($2.65), cucumber, carrot, arugula, and spinach (choice of four toppings). I also got a can of Cola ($3.65). I loved my bowl, the chicken was nicely seasoned and I haven't had tofu in a while so I really enjoyed it. I thought the bowl and soda were both pricy, however, had I stuck to a bowl off the menu, I would have saved a bit. Unlike Cava and other similar operations, I like that they have a large selection of sauces to choose from. I enjoyed the Chipotle and Ranch sauces. The restaurant has limited seating, but most patrons got their food to go. There is street parking, a garage, and a lot behind the restaurant. They have two types of loyalty programs, one is free and the other one is an annual membership that offers additional perks. I really enjoyed my bowl and would return albeit not frequently given that it's a bit pricy. Glad I decided to give it a try.

He was even happy to speak in Russian to them the whole time. Their ambience and service is wonderful. Food choices are very authentic and full of flavor. Even if you've never eaten Russian/Uzbek food, I highly recommend you try it out. Their portion sizes are great as well. And they have so many choices. You can even tell that all is made fresh. We ordered plov, manti, tashkent salad, kompot, kebobs and their potato salad (i forget the name of this dish) and their bread. It was all wonderful. Definitely worth the drive.

To my luck, we had great Uzbek food less than 15 mins away! It was a while ago but we ordered the samsa, manti, kutabi, plov, and chohohbli, and I can't recall what else but we loved it! Last night my husband and I decided to dine in. The restaurant is beautifully decorated with cultural artifacts and art. This may just be a me thing but the serveware was envy worthy. It was gorgeous. I'm obsessed with beautiful dishware. There were only two people taking orders and serving food for an almost full dining room so we were understanding of a bit of a wait time. The staff were very friendly and checked in on us when they could. We ordered the khachipuri, samsa, oxtail, chohobli, steamed rice, pilmeni, and hot tea. Both the khachipuri and samsa were flaky pastries: khachapuri filled with a salty stretchy cheese with a cheese pull that tasted better than it was Instagram-able and samsa filled with a savory meat/onion mixture served with a tomato based sauce. Get one per person because you will not want to share. We ordered fried mini dumplings which are filled with meat and also served with same tomato based sauce that came with the samsa. They were delicious but afterwards I saw that you can get them steamed in a broth, I told myself I have to get that next time. The slow-cooked, tender oxtail was served over the best crispy, fat-fried potatoes I've ever had. The chohobli (chicken stew) was fall off the bone into a delicious tomato-based stew. We ordered the rice to sop up the delicious stew. The tea really helped to cut the richness of all the delicious food. I have not shut up about this place since we had this meal. I will rave about it to just about anyone that will listen in hopes that they will come with me next time so we can order more dishes to share.
