    Not as pretty looking because it's mixed already with everything. But it was yummy!

    Shah's halal food restaurant recently opened about 2 weeks ago in the North point village shopping center. And it's pretty good here!! If you like Halal guys and DCG and wished that there was a place closer in Reston? Look no farther!! We got the combo platter as usual, they give pretty good portions of rice, chicken, gyro meats, veggies, red onions and you can choose other toppings like chickpeas, hummus, diced sweet onions, other types of veggies. Sauces they have the white sauce and spicy red sauce (which wasn't too spicy for us since we eat our food extra spicy) and they also have green chili sauce which we didn't get. Next time I will try some. But for now, this bowl of food was satisfying as it is. Their chicken and gyro meat tasted good, it wasn't overly salty like some places. Their meats went very well with their rice and veggies. Service was quick and friendly! We will be back for more!

    Shah's Halal Food is another expansion from a food truck in Queens, NY and they just opened in Reston with a free rice platter at lunch. For those that are familiar with the Halal Guys in NYC, this is very similar and it looks like they are growing just as fast. Lamb, Chicken, gyros, falafel, and even cheesesteaks. My son and I line up in the cold and the line outside quickly lengthens in size to 50+ folks. We wait approximately 10-15 minutes outside and then get inside where the friendly manager/owner (not sure which) chats with folks and talks about the impressive expansion they are doing in the DMV. Nice people working the store... We both opt for the Combo Rice Platter with lamb and chicken. The chicken has a reddish/orangish marinade which is a bit different from other halal places and you also can add numerous toppings - lettuce, cucumber/tomatoes, onions, chickpeas, hummus, fried veggies (onions, peppers), etc. You then must top it off with the white sauce and I also prefer the hot red sauce. There are a few other sauces offered but I didn't partake. How does it compare? Good, solid, tasty food...the proteins are moist and marinated nicely, the veggies are fresh and with the combo of the white and red sauce it is a good meal. Is it the best rendition I've had?? Probably not..but definitely a solid option when feeling a halal meal. Nice to have this new option in Reston...

    If you live in Reston and don't want to go out of your way to get The Halal Guys, this is a great and delicious alternative. It was full of flavor and the Falafel had a nice crunch to it.

    Went there the other day. It has a huge parking lot so it's not hard to find parking. It wasn't busy when I went in around 5, and food was good! I love DCG, but it's further out from me. This place is just as good minus the extra minutes to drive to DCG. They offer a variety of toppings such as beans, chickpeas, and salad, and they're generous with the sauce. I liked it and I will be back!

Chicken caesar wrap- chicken isn't spicy. Seasoned well. Salad was well dressed but not overdressed. Ate the second half the next day and it held up well. The tortilla doesn't get soggy overnight. Some bites were a little salty because cheese isn't evenly distributed. Same goes for chicken- the cross section photo I took looks like too much salad to chicken ratio, but the chicken ended up being on the bottom of the wraps. It comes with extra Caesar dressing but doesn't need it at all. Tortilla is excellent-- great chew. $10 for a giant wrap- great price. Snack wrap- 2 for $5 and it tastes closer to McDonald's OG snack wrap than McDonald's current snack wrap. Chicken is significantly better than McDonald's and great price point. 2 sandwiches with fries is $12.99. Great deal. I have the lowest heat tolerance but I can stand to eat extra hot (albeit sweating). Their Cole slaw on its own is dry but goes so well with sandwiches. The slaw has cilantro so it tastes herby and makes the sandwich more interesting. Also adds a nice crunch. Fries don't hold up well but reheat well and become crispy in an air fryer. Yellow sauce tastes like honey mustard. Big bird sauce tastes like diluted bbq mayo. Service and ambiance- fast casual, friendly.

    In search of the best tacos on the planet? If so, this could very well be the place, here at…read morebartaco (Reston, Virginia). I've probably had thousands of tacos in my lifetime. And, I'm not sure if this place serves the best tacos on the planet, but I can say that they certainly serve the best tacos that I've ever had! I came here just after flying into Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD), nonstop from Los Angeles (LAX). I hadn't eaten since I was in Los Angeles because I refuse to eat that terrible airplane food. Needless to say, I was pretty hungry by the time I arrived. I walked in without a reservation, at about 9pm, and they appeared to be moderately busy. Shortly after entering a friendly hostess guided me to a comfortable booth. As I looked around this business, I was immediately pleased with the "cool vibe" that this place had. Several folks were either dining together or socializing at the bar. My immediate thought was that this would be a really pleasant place to take someone special on a date. Shortly after being seated, a waitress stopped by my table and introduced herself. Her name was Alayna. Seeing that I was new to this restaurant, she quickly went over the menu and other details unique to this restaurant. She was also careful to ask if I had any food allergies, because a lot of folks have these. I told her how much I appreciated her focus on this because two of my kids have food allergies that I have to watch out for. I ordered a pomegranate limonada to drink, which was incredibly refreshing. For my first round of tacos, I ordered the "baja fish" taco, the "roasted duck" taco, and the "sesame ribeye" taco. For my second round, I ordered the "carne asada" taco, the "yukatán shrimp" taco, and the "crispy oyster" taco. And boy, these tacos not only satisfied my hunger, they were all absolutely delicious! Throughout my experience here, Alayna was incredibly professional, attentive, and pleasant. If you're ever in the Reston area, I would highly recommend that you stop by here for a meal. This was a solid five-star experience!

Good for small groups but a bit cramped inside & outside. Very accommodating & helpful staff. Great service. Yummy drinks. You won't leave broke or hungry unless you choose to. The food & drinks may not look fancy, but their flavors are satisfying and hit the spot. The meats were seasoned well and you don't need a lot piled onto these small street tacos. They warn you that you'll probably need to order at least two or three tacos for a meal. Food comes out pretty fast, so you can keep on ordering if you have room for more! Fish, pork, chicken, shrimp, beef... they're all good. You can't go wrong. Lots of other options if tacos aren't your thing. Again, Don't expect art on a plate...more like grub on a tray...but also don't expect to go broke after indulging in a good meal. This was an absolutely unexpected delightful experience after another disappointing experience at the expensive peruvian joint across the street. Let's just say, bartaco exceeded expectations after a last-minute change of venue and came through for us with flying colors. Way to go, bartaco Reston! You've won my business with excellence in service (our server & their team was soooooo cool!), yummy eats & drinks, and wahooo...you make pups feel at home, too! Couldn't have asked for a better first experience. I'm drooling just thinking about their tacos ...

Very good customer service, especially by the management team and they were very present and made sure that I was enjoying my experience dining there. The ambiance was very relaxing and not noisy or chaotic. I really appreciated that because that is hard to find nowadays. Also, the table was set well and it was very clean throughout the dining area. I had their Roasted Wild Mushroom and Swiss Burger. It was very good. I loved that they use Pat La Frieda beef for their burger patties, the mushrooms were so flavorful from the balsamic vinegar, the Jarlsberg Swiss cheese had a nice mild cheesy touch, and their truffle aioli was the best savory sauce to complement it all. 9.5/10 for the burger and 10/10 for the customer service. I definitely will be back soon.

We had a half cup of clam chowder with it and a side of truffle tries. 5/30/26, we're back...5-6 people. However, we ran off to down the street. It was great either way to build a little appetite. When we return. We ordered devil eggs with bacon (so delicious with smokiness), calamari without hot peppers...crispy and tasty with a little lemon, and then added truffle fries with Parmesan cheese! Yummy! Bella was our server and cordial. There was a mix up on delivery but the next table and us cracked up laughing.
