Food was fresh, flavorful and cooked to order, quickly. I wasn't familiar with all the toppings and sauces so the staff took the time out to explain them without making me feel bad. Portions are amazing for the price and there is plenty of seating. Definitely going back! read more

It's seldom that I am in Waldorf. Okay, that's probably never that I am in Waldorf but the James E. Richmond Science Center was down the road with a special screening of Beautifica by James Hood. A few friends and I gathered for dinner at Momi's before the evening show. You might be a little confused as to how it works but that's okay. We all were. You start by placing your order and then you're asked to sit at a table. Actually, a sign tells you that the toppings area is not for waiting and that you are expected to wait elsewhere. It was not a terrible wait when you have friends but I would place an online order ahead of time if I were doing a pick up. Sometimes a wait only means your food is being prepared fresh. And this was the case here. I got the lamb kabob fare which came with pita and five toppings. My toppings were the beets, cucumbers, corn, cabbage, and pickles. I have to admit that I may have gone too far on the pickle scale as almost all my toppings were on the vinegary briney side. I almost couldn't finish the last of the pickles because they were too briney! We all thought the servers were trying to give us extra toppings. They kept asking if we wanted this or that and they even added extra cucumbers to my plate once I stopped at the designated five toppings. After selecting my five toppings, I was asked if I wanted any yogurt and hummus. Sure, why not. I have no idea if they were included in what I paid. Then the last question was do I want the sauce to be hot or not. I said not and got a drizzle of green sauce on my lamb kabobs. And when I was handed my plate, I was given a blessing. And how can you not smile and thank your server! The lamb kabob was nicely prepared and soft. It was worth the wait. I enjoyed all my toppings and if I ever come back, I will try some of the other toppings. The french fries were really hot upon pick up at the counter but nice and crisp. (Note: one of my friends ordered the beef burger and as he proceeded to put some mayo on it from a packet, the mayo was solid.) Parking: Plentiful read more

This place stands out in a bland shopping center in a bland town. It is a sort of fast casual; one places an order at the register and then waits a bit for them to get it started, before getting called to select some toppings. Their selection of fresh toppings was fantastic, and I think I indulged the people working there on it, but ended up with a fantastic wrap. Their falafel is distinctively spiced, and they had flaming hot sauce, house made hummus, and an excellent variety of fresh and preserved vegetables. They did not have a whole lot else on the menu (at least from a vegetarian perspective) and I always feel a little weird getting falafel without fries, but I could not realistically expect a better sandwich that the one I received here. read more

Ordered a shawarma wrap this time and loved it. Plenty of food inside of the wrap once the toppings were added. I also tried their fries. I was expecting regular plain fries but no these fries were fresh, hot, crispy, and seasoned well. The owner and his wife are always hospitable and welcoming. And the cleanliness is top tier. This is also one place that I will be able to enjoy meals with my mom who uses a wheelchair. Very accessible and will be easy for her to navigate. read more

Momi's is a local favorite of mine. The owner, Mustafah and his family take great pride in this restaurant and it shows! Everything is made fresh and tastes amazing. All of his sauces are made in-house. The lemonade was delicious, I will be back for more of that! The restaurant is clean and the service is always excellent. I had not been here in months and my lunch yesterday proved they still got it. If you have not been you have to try it at least once! read more

Momi's is absolutely delicious and I wish I lived closer. The chicken is addictive. Everything is so fresh and flavorful. The staff are super friendly and you can tell that they really care. The meat is grilled fresh to order so there's a little bit of a wait, but I never mind. The platters with vegetables, rice, and chickpeas have always been excellent. Portions are generous. There aren't a ton of good options in this area but Momi's is definitely one and I always look forward to returning. read more

I will make a detour to specifically eat at this location. The warmth and excellent customer service, along with fresh top of the line offerings, is a combo that can't be beat. Mediterranean food cooked to perfection. We ordered two meals to go. One vegetarian plate showcasing the Falafel Balls and the second Lamb and Beef Kebabs. Simple deliciousness. I can't wait to go back and try the rest of the items on the menu. read more

I had the absolute pleasure of visiting this adorable new Middle Eastern spot, and I'm already obsessed! It has a super fun and easy Chipotle-style setup--you pick a base and then choose 5 fresh, homemade ingredients to build your own delicious bowl or plate. It's perfect for customizing your meal, and every option is honestly better than the last. I went with a coworker who is Middle Eastern, and they immediately said it was the best Middle Eastern food they've had in the area--which says a lot! Every single ingredient tasted so fresh and flavorful, and you could truly tell it's all made from scratch with love. The owner is the sweetest person ever--so kind and welcoming, and he made us feel right at home. His whole family was there helping out too, and they were just as lovely. You can really feel the heart and soul behind this place. If you're looking for something casual, fresh, and absolutely delicious, this spot is it. It's like a Middle Eastern Chipotle--but a thousand times better. Go now before the secret's out! read more

The people that run Momi's middle eastern restaurant are amazing and helpful. It is the type of counter service where you walk down the line and customize your fresh cooked selection. Our favorites are the Shwarma platter, the Kabob platters, and fresh-cooked falafel balls (so light and fluffy!). As you walk down the line you get unlimited toppings of delicious items such as rice, onions, tabouli, hummus, tomatoes, and various other vegetables and sauces. This place is a shining gem in otherwise bland Waldorf. read more

Momi's Kitchen - Food - Mediterranean Near Me - Waldorf, Maryland

Let's start with the absolutely phenomenal-- the food. Grabbed the Lamb Kabob, rice, tabbouleh, chickpeas, and multiple salads with their hot sauce. The absolute freshness of the ingredients cannot be described in words. The flavors all work together perfectly, and as someone who spend years in the Middle East, it is pretty damn authentic. Now only two small things -- the ambiance is very cafeteria-esque. Now I only care about the taste of the food, but I know some people will be turned off by it. They also don't have a menu visible, which makes ordering a bit of a process. Definitely would have tried the Shwarma if I had seen it before ordering. Overall, some of the best food I've had in Waldorf and will be a must try every time I'm in town. read more

Passed by this establishment while starving and decided to pop in and see what it was all about! Normally, I pull a quick review up to read but it had already been nearly 7 hours since I last ate! So, I took a chance! I'm currently on a primarily clean food journey. So, this was right on time and they did NOT disappoint! I ended up getting my food and eating inside vs to go because I wasn't going to make it back to VA without passing out like a fainting goat from lack of food! The space is very large inside for seating and the parking lot has ample space! Pricing was not expensive and you get a lot of food for what you pay! I ended up ordering a kids Shawarma plate and a couple of falafel balls! When you order, you stand back until they call your number and then you come up to the counter to tell them what you want as your toppings. I must have had a lost look on my face (or a look of fatigue from hunger) because the guy decided to make my bowl w/his suggestions, with my blessings, of course. I appreciated that because I was overwhelmed and starving already! I ended up with white meat shawarma and subbed chickpeas vs getting rice. The toppings. Idek. Some cucumber tomato, onions, red cabbage, hummus, yogurt sauce, something spicy, turkish salad (?), and some cauliflower. A couple of other things but I forget! Everything was sooooo freaking fresh and delicious that I ordered another kid's meal to go after I finished the first one! Don't judge me! The pita was light and tasty and went well with the toppings. While I dont live close by being Im in VA, I will definitely make a point to stop by for dinner/lunch whenever I'm back in the area! It's worth the drive and I dont have the guilt of eating some bad fried food full of who knows what! The customer service here was so wonderful and they seem to know their "regulars", too. That was a positive to witness in person. They care about their customers for sure! read more

Despite Momi's being 40 minutes from our home, we are dedicated regulars. The food is SO good. Fresh. Colorful. Flavorful. And endless combinations. We've had falafel, chicken, salmon and there's not a ranking system. They're all fantastic. Even better is the service. The folks who work here are friendly, efficient and interested in ensuring you're content. 12/10. I'd give all the stars! read more

This place is absolutely delicious I had the salmon special and a lamb skewer the food was super fresh and light the place was spacious and super clean and everyone was super friendly think of this place as upgraded Cava! I use a walker and the server asked me what my likes and dislikes were and whether I liked spicy or not and that he would fix for me so that I didn't have to come back up to the assembly line awesome food awesome service! I hope more people start to show this place more love because it was kind of empty. read more

Delicious! Great service. Great food! Fresh ingredients. Very underrated restaurant. Waldorf's best kept secret.

Located just outside of St. Charles Towne Center, as a stand alone. We came on a Sunday and it wasn't too busy. The food from my understanding is made to order, but it also seems to have a fast casual thing going on as well. There were plenty of options to choose from as far as toppings are concerned. The staff were super helpful and kind, giving suggestions for what I and my little one may like. I tried the soup of the day (lentil) and got a kids meal. The meal was chicken and came with your choice of sides. My soup was fresh and as were the items in the kids meal. Things were a little under seasoned for my liking, not sure if I'd return. read more

This is a gem in Waldorf! I've been to the Middle East several times and this place feels very authentic. The lamb kebabs were delicious!! And the staff were friendly and efficient. The dining area itself could use a little sprucing up but otherwise this is a great place. read more

Clean and nice atmosphere, friendly staff, good delicious tasty food and great prices .

Momi's Kitchen was outstanding. Visiting the area from SoCal and this place was delicious. I ate every last morsel of my chicken kebab plate. You get a good amount of food, and the chicken came with 5 sides. I picked rice, red cabbage, onions & peppers, garbanzo beans and then added corn, 3 spicy sauces, pickles, yogurt, cucumbers and pita. The service was warm and friendly too. read more

I'm not sure what to say. Not the usual Halal spot, they do offer a variety of items. Most were not familiar to me. We were ordering in restaurant, for our family of 5. The staff was patient and helped us create our bowls. The meats were delicious. I wish we were able to identify the items displayed. Maybe if they had name signs for each dish. We enjoyed the sauce selections. The bowls were filling and we will give this place another shot. The ambiance is relaxed and gives a family welcoming atmosphere. read more

I always wished there were more local restaurants to go to in Waldorf whenever I visited my family. So I was super excited when I saw Momi's Kitchen on Yelp's top MD suburbs restaurants list. Ordering kind of works like Chipotle -- you pick your main base dish/platter and then there are numerous toppings/side dishes you can add. At first, I was overwhelmed by all the options because I wasn't familiar with all the dishes and ingredients. But the man who helped me customize my platter was super helpful and kind. He was great! He recommended what toppings and sauces to get with my beef kofta platter. The food was soo good and tasted fresh. I loved the spicy sauce that he added (it wasn't too spicy, but added a little bit of heat and great flavor to the platter). I really hope that this business stays strong and gets a lot of business. The restaurant is very spacious but it was pretty empty when I stopped by for dinner. I hope they get a lot of to-go orders!! I will definitely be stopping by. read more
