    The food was incredible. I got the mix meat tray and husband got the chicken. All three meats were delicious. The "white" sauce was described as being like tzatziki - it has the feel of tzatziki but I'd describe it more as a creamy garlic sauce (still delicious). We both got tabouleh, it was fresh and tasted good although we agreed it could use just a little more flavor, maybe garlic or salt. Our total came to $41 but you do get a lot of meat. The food took a little while to come out but we suspect because they had several online orders ahead of us, plus it was worth the wait. Our only complaint is the pita does not appear to be made in house (we saw the premade pita's on the counter). Oh and the hummus was delicious, so fresh tasting. Highly recommend this restaurant and we'll be back to try more item!

    Chicken Shawarma with Greek Salad

    Never fails ! The chicken shawarma is banging ! And the falafel is just as crispy as it is supposed to be. Reminds me of back home. My mother also loves their hummus and she's a hard Arab food critic to please. Whenever I'm feeling homesick I make sure to stop in. The ambiance, the Arabic music it amazing.

    Scott's Shawarma is a great spot! Near the Science Center, it's an easy spot to grab takeout (or sit inside at one of the few tables). Since Toast wasn't working, we called in our order. Sadly, most of our orders were wrong, but it still tasted good. The spice on the chicken pops! The tortilla that the sandwiches come in is excellent. I enjoyed my chicken shawarma sandwich with spicy garlic sauce, pickled cucumbers, lettuce, and onions.

    The best part of the restaurant was the kibbeh, even though it was very deep-fried, but the spices in it were very good. We have the Shawarma platter with chicken and the tabouli was very tasty. The garlic sauce needed more of a punch.

    I've always loved the food from Scott's but glad to have this new location. Food is hot and fresh and ready quickly when ordered online.

    Exactly what we were craving - lots of food for an affordable price in an accessible area to where we were staying for the weekend in The Fan! I absolutely loved the pickled radish, pepper, and onion as a part of the Chicken Shwarma w/ Saj Bread - the perfect contrast to some otherwise super chicken drenched in a tangy sauce. Every bite felt like you were getting every flavor that was promised when I ordered. Generous helpings of everything on my girlfriends order and I could not get enough of the sauces that came with. Reliable for takeout any night of the week with quick service.

    Amazing chicken and beef shawarma, that tasted authentic and fresh. Friendly staff members made the atmosphere very pleasant and positive and the service was very quick! 10/10 would recommend to a friend!

    Super quick pick up! Pretty good! Wish pita came on the side. At first I was shocked it was so expensive, I paid $16 for my platter, but honestly it's so much food I probably will make 3 meals out of it

    Chicken Shawarma Sandwich on Markuk

    There was only one employee managing the counter. There were lots of to go orders and some in person. He could tell I wasn't quite sure what I wanted and offered suggestions. I got the chicken shawarma sandwich on markuk bread and I asked him to put whatever he would recommend in it besides hot sauce. It was pretty good and hit the spot after a night out. It was drier than I expected so next time I'd ask for extra white sauce.

    I am at a loss for words.. this place was amazing! My boyfriend and I have been looking for a place that serves good shawarma and haven't found any yet in rva. However, this place surprised me! We found this place after driving by and decided to try it out. The chicken shawarma and the beef & lamb platter were so flavorful! I found the chicken shawarma to be my favorite out of the two. My boyfriend said it was the best shawarma he's ever had from the U.S. The owner was also very nice and the service was super fast! Definitely would recommend this place and will probably be back tomorrow!!

    Got the chicken shawarma, felafel, hummus, baba ganoush, and fries. Everything was very good.

    Easiest one star I've ever given, also rare that I do. But when one person enters a restaurant, and…read morethere are three staff members...but none of those individuals acknowledge the potential patron. Hold this one star. All three of you earned it.

    Everyone who knows me knows I'm always down for CAVA! I don't eat out that often, but when I do,…read moreit's usually CAVA. The Huguenot location used to be my spot, but since I moved, this one is now closer. I didn't mind the switch, I figured it'd be nice to try a different location. I've been here twice so far. The place itself is nice, parking can be a little tight but not a big deal. I also like that they have a rooftop area (haven't gone up there yet since it's always cold when I visit). Now, the reason for this review, I stopped by yesterday with a friend, and our total came to almost $40 for just two bowls and one bag of pita chips (no drinks!). We noticed the portions of rice, chicken, and other toppings were smaller than usual. When we asked for just a little bit more, the staff member said it would be extra charge, and he meant it! We ended up paying way more than what I typically spend at other CAVA locations ($25 for two people). I'm not trying to be cheap, but it doesn't feel fair to serve such small portions and then charge extra when customers ask for a little more. I still love CAVA and the food is good but I might be limiting the amount of time I go there.
