Restaurants in Dumfries are generally really bad. We went to Giorgio's really wanting to like it…read more Unfortunately, overall, it just was not good. First the positives: I ordered the Gyro with fries and really enjoyed it. Not the best Gyro I have ever had, but good. The other three members of my family ordered different chicken dishes and all three were bad. Overall they were very bland. Using a little seasoning during cooking goes a long way. The chicken on the dishes seemed boiled. I guess this is an easy way to get tender chicken, but man does it remove the flavor! My wife's chicken had tendon and grizzle through out. My daughter's Marsala was gross. Seemed to be a Jared gravy. The wait staff really should not be wearing jeans, especially since the dining room seems nice (except for the paper table cloths.). One of the waitresses had ugly tattoos which no one wants to see at a nice place like this. It's a shame. This place has potential, but the food and wait staff drag it down HARD.

It's also connected to winestyles. The menu is Italian in nature with some Greek flare like gyros meats and flaming cheese. During my last visit we ordered a garlic lemon butter sauce with Salmon. It was very delicious. Our little, who was starving and begged to come to see the flaming cheese ordered well the saganaki and buttered pasta. She wanted steamed broccoli, but Giorgio's has seasonal veggies and rotates which ones they have so no veggies for her this day. It was very nice coming for lunch and our server was very sweet interacting with our little. I do think the prices here are high for this area and I would be more inclined to visit more frequently if prices were more affordable. So for us this is a occasional visit restaurant.

We went upstairs and the furniture would be more attractive in an antique store. We ordered kibbeh and hummus as appetizer. The meat inside Kibbeh was cold and the server changed it to two new ones. Same result, but now it was frozen in center. We did not bother to mind the staff again. The hummus was good! We also ordered mix grill. I am so sorry but that was a huge disappointment! Meat was burnt, and was a handful to chew in addition. Salad that came with it didn't taste much either, like Arabic salads usually do. Even tough the person that served us was nice and attentive, it doesn't help if the ambiance and the food quality is of so low standard. For hookah evening I recon this place will work for certain parties, for dining only, you should look for a better option.

Overall, if chicken kabobs were on the Cheesecake Factory menu, this version would be on the skinnylicious menu for those counting calories and preferring a healthier less indulgent version since flavors seem muted and textures appear lacking due to insufficient oil/grease.

The falafels were on point and quite tasty. I actually felt bad about sharing them. I was…read moredisappointed in the flavor of the hummus, which is to say there was none. Paprika was sprinkled on top and it was a generous portion, while smooth and creamy... no flavor. No lemon, no garlic, just chickpea. The Platter was plentiful, good portion size. I'm not generally a couscous eater, but there was a nice variety to the flavor. The pita was spot on, and again, plentiful. Very light and airy, plus it held form against the hummus. I'm a sucker for spanakopita, so I felt inclined to try the spinach pie. I was torn between spinach and meat, but I'm happy i chose the spinach. I think there was a bit or seed blended in, but whatever it was gave a great texture.

We checked out of the Holiday Inn Express across the street and had that thing where you want…read morebreakfast but don't want to eat at the same place you always do. Quick Google, and Montclair Family Restaurant popped up basically a stone's throw away. Sold. Pulled in and the lot was full, cars circling for spots. Honestly that's usually a great sign for a breakfast spot but a rough sign for actually parking. We were about to give up and go around the block when somebody backed out right in front of us. Walked in and there were two tables left in the whole place. We felt like we'd used up a week of luck before 10am. Black coffee for me, water for her, nothing fancy. But the coffee was genuinely excellent, which I don't take for granted at a family restaurant. A lot of places treat coffee like an afterthought and this one clearly doesn't. I saw a Greek omelette on the menu and had never had one, so that decision made itself. My fiancée went with the pancake tacos, which neither of us had ever seen anywhere before. My omelette came out and it was eggcellent. The real star was the tzatziki, which was one of the best I've had anywhere, not just at breakfast. My one honest gripe is the home fries showed up cold. But I dumped some of that tzatziki on them and suddenly the temperature stopped being a problem. Then there's the pancake tacos. Absolutely to die for. Picture a fancy McGriddle with a lot more going on and a lot more food. My fiancée is normally very generous about sharing, and this time I got exactly one bite before she made it clear that's all I'm getting. Jealous of her order for the second time this weekend. We will be returning for dinner next time we are in town!

**1 Star - Terrible service from start to finish**…read more We sat in a small booth on a Thursday night and the first person who came over spoke almost no English. She managed to get out the word "drinks," then couldn't understand Diet Coke and unsweet iced tea. After that we sat there about 20 minutes until a different waitress finally noticed us, apologized, and took our order. Food took a long time and was very overpriced for what we got. The waitress who started our order then walked out to the parking lot without saying a word. We were ignored after that until another server came by to refill drinks and then disappeared to the other side of the restaurant. We just wanted the check so we could leave. I finally had to get up and stand at the front. One guy walked right past me, ignored me, then came back a couple minutes later and sent me to a register. The guy at the register sent me back to the first guy. They then had a disagreement right in front of me. Eventually the waitress who had taken over our table came over with a handheld machine so I could tap to pay and get out. Never again.

I have not yet visited but will update my review once I have had the opportunity to stop by and check out the restaurant for myself! I called the restaurant & spoke to a very kind gentleman who I assume is the owner. He said they offer an open buffet at 7:30 pm (call for details) & will consider more things for customers in the weeks to come. I am hoping music & dancing will become part of their late night offerings! I expressed this interest while on the phone. Welcome to Woodbridge, Rayhan Grill!

No smiles, no welcome, the music was louder than their voices, oh and no thank you for spending nearly $60 on 2 bowl, 2 drinks, and 2 cookies. Rather than speak when I asked which side to order on (because it's opposite from before the remodel), one of the line food sloppers (the people throwing the food in the bowls as you order) just pointed in the direction to go. The way they just plopped the food in the bowls was as if no one happened to be looking while they did it and definitely indicating they could care less about how they treat the food you're about to eat. That whole show made the restaurant just feel unclean and unwelcoming. I know it's not a fancy dine-in, but the prices are higher than some decent dine-ins and the Cava experience was one that won't happen again. Too bad. They used to be a nice experience. Used to.
