Chicken shawarma plate, side order of fries
Nick V.

I dined here this past Sunday evening. Very quick and efficient service. Chicken shawarma plate was very tasty and plenty of food. It was on special Sunday and was a reduced price compared to menu. The side order of fries were just ok but I liked the dipping sauce.

Took take out of their Falafel bowl and it was yummy. The sauce tasted good and it was worth the price.

Chicken shawarma plate with super greens and pita on the side

Stopped here out of the blue earlier for a mid afternoon lunch. I originally had wanted to eat at Kramer's across the street, but it was packed in there and I wasn't planning on waiting for a table. Taim was more "tame" in comparison and more my speed for a place to eat peacefully and read a book. Their menu is pretty straightforward. You pick a base, a protein and then you can choose your toppings with a sauce. I got a super green plate with chicken shawarma, cucumbers, tomatoes, carrots, picked onions, and picked radish with a topping of harissa (server recommended it if you like spice) and tahini sauce. This also comes with a pita on the side. It didn't take long before my plate came out. It was almost $15 which is a bit pricier for a salad bowl, but the bowl was very filling and much larger than I expected. The food was fresh and all the ingredients blended well together. My only drawback is they didn't have a napkin dispensers on the floor, so I had to ask for napkins and a lot of the tables had crumbs on it. Granted, one of the workers cleaned the tables after I pointed out there being crumbs at the table I wanted to sit at. The store was pretty empty when I walked in, so not sure if maybe there was a rush beforehand, but beside that, good food and I'd recommend.

We were visiting the ATT store and happened upon Taim. I'm a huge fan of Mediterranean food, so we decided to stop in. I highly recommend the Ginger Mint Lemonade it was sweet and refreshing. I love the options here. You can pick the ingredients for your bowl, pita, or salad. First, you pick a base, I chose hummus and Jasmine rice, then a main ingredient. Falafel was my choice. Then add veggies. I chose the red pepper baba ganoush for a side. It was a dollar extra, but worth it. I do wish they would provide pita bread with the meal. I had a lot of hummus and baba ganoush left and nothing to eat it with.

No-frills kind of place--Service was straightforward and fast. I ordered the honey harissa bowl, which tasted good, but at $16.99, it felt a bit pricey given the portion and overall value, especially compared to other similar spots in the area. The ambiance wasn't particularly inviting--it was a little dark and didn't feel like a place you'd want to linger. That said, it's solid for a quick bite if you're in the neighborhood and want something flavorful and fast.

I ordered the special of honey harissa steak bowl! This was my first time coming to Taim, and I really enjoyed the service! The staff were incredibly friendly - much friendlier than I was expecting for ordering from kiosks. For that I'm giving them 4 stars :). As for the food, I ordered a takeaway after joining their membership rewards for 50% off, and I wasn't blown away, but it was decent mediterranean food. Definitely comparable to other mediterranean chains like cava. One thing that really disappointed me was the rice. I think they had given me the bottom of the rice cooker because it was crunchy and dehydrated ):. The honey steak though was really good. Will I go back? Maybe if I'm in the area, but not a place I'm dying to return to. Seriously though, their smiles brought a smile to my face!!

Roasted Chicken Bowl with cauliflower and eggplant
Audrey R.

I'm sorry but Cava WHO - taim has absolutely defied all my expectations for a fast-casual spot - I am a die hard protein enthusiast but the eggplant and the cauliflower are a must. this eggplant will turn you into an eggplant fan, it's the absolute perfect consistency. it's juicy while staying intact and avoiding a terrifying mush - the cauliflower is SO flavorful. it's decadently crispy without even a twinge of burn. It has even more flavor than the shwarma chicken as just a veggie! - the chicken is always ALWAYS a FAT portion. everywhere loves to skimp on quality ingredients but taim loads on the protein. it's always moist and tender. - I'm usually a greens base girl in all my bowls, but this hummus is worth the full base. i believe it is mixed with tahini because it has this amazing nutty taste. it's soooo smooth (no chickpea ick from a clump) and i eat it with a spoon alone. not too heavy of a base either to make you feel ill - the other toppings all taste so fresh. especially obsessed with the pickles onions, cucumbers, and banana peppers as they bring a sharp salty flavor into the cool savory hummus flavoring

CHICKEN SHAWARMA PLATE
Eric Y.

It is a quiet place to get your Mediterranean Fix quickly. It is easy to order as you create your own bowl and the food comes out quickly. On weekends they have a $7 Chicken Schwarma Plate which you can't go wrong with the combination of Chicken, Rice, Pickled Cabbage, Cucumber Salad, and Bread. Only if there was more food but you can always order two (2) servings right?

I tried to use the app to order food. None of the rewards work if you try to order online. As soon as i tried to apply them to my order they disappeared. It waa super disappointing. Chicken shawarma bowl was delicious. Love the toppings. They add a nice spin to the normal shawarma. I ordered to eggplant with tahini too but it was very oil and not crispy.

Green Falafel
Tonya P.

Every visit to NY, Taïm is always on the list of a go to spot. Their green falafel rocks my world. I arrived at my hotel and searched restaurants close by, luckily for me Taïm was in walking distance and not closing for another 30 minutes. Walked over and ordered my standby, green falalel add pickles, hot sauce, chickpeas and pickled onion. It did not disappoint. Amazingly enough, I have been to three locations in NY and the DC was the best one yet! The ladies working were super nice and made my sandwich with amor. Just writing about makes me crave more falafel. Be sure to read the menu and look at the add ons and definitely add their green hot sauce.

Bowl with a base of super greens / lettuce, impossible kebabs, marinated beets, fries, chickpeas, and a variety of other toppings
Sonya H.

One of my greatest personal tragedies of 2022 was that the Taim in Georgetown closed its doors. Thankfully, the Dupont location isn't too much further and is able to fulfill my cravings for their absolutely unbeatable bowls. To make things even better, they have such an amazing selection of things that are both vegetarian / vegan AND gluten-free, which can be such a struggle to find. I've been to Taim countless times, so it's hard to even recount all of the different things that I've ordered from them, but you really can't go wrong with anything on their menu. I always make a bowl with half hummus and half leafy super greens (or a mix of super greens and lettuce if I'm in more of a salad mood...but Taim's hummus is so good that it just doesn't feel right to pass it up). All of the vegetarian mains are amazing -- the falafel is fried to crispy and golden perfection, and either packed with the freshness and flavor of my entire herb garden or with the deep umami and light kick of harissa, depending on which type you opt for. Personally, I think a half-and-half blend is the way to go to get to fully experience both flavors, but each one is absolutely delightful on their own. If you've had enough of the chickpeas from the hummus but still want a bit more protein, the impossible kebabs are delicious and super aromatic and flavorful. They're a little bit on the salty end for my taste, but they're still fantastic. And, if you're instead looking for a bit more veg, the cauliflower shawarma and golden eggplant are both perfectly crispy and absolutely packed with flavor. They go perfectly with the tangy mango sauce, which really brightens up the entire bowl. I also love that the golden eggplant comes with a hard-boiled egg, so you're not missing out on your ~protein~. As far as toppings go, you really can't go wrong with any of them. The only one that I might not 100% recommend is the fries, especially if you're getting takeout / delivery -- although they're deliciously crispy and wonderful when they're first made, they don't fare all too well when placed in a bowl with other hot things and then transported across the city. But if you're eating immediately? Absolutely go for it. I'm also a huge sucker for the marinated beets and Moroccan carrots; honestly, if I could just buy a giant container of the Moroccan carrots, I could just eat that with hummus and be 100% satisfied. All of the sauces are tasty, but I do have a special place in my heart for the spicy green chile...it definitely packs a bit of a punch, but it has such a wonderful flavor. Taim will never cease to be one of my favorite spots in DC. There's a seemingly endless number of fast-casual Mediterranean spots across the city, but none of them can hold a candle to Taim. Truly can't recommend them enough!

Do the hummus bowls come with pita? Normally when I order hummus bowls (Little Sesame, Shouk, the sadly closed Naf Naf Grill) a piece of pita is included but I can't tell from the menu.

Yes. Unless you chose to have rice as your base instead of hummus as your base.

They should use a number system for order pickups because people, including myself, had difficulty determining which order they were serving. Many of the sandwich names sounded alike. My sandwich was kind of small for the price, and it wasn't very filling. It was, however, very good. It was flavorful and packed with flavor. The service was ok. It was nothing special. They did their job and did not go beyond or be overly friendly. All in all, I would recommend checking this deli out for some really good sandwiches. They really do live up to their name, the Best Sandwich Place.

The sandwiches looked epic and the photos of the place looked adorable for a local joint. We walked over from our hotel in Georgetown and were overwhelmed by the sandwich choices. Caught between the Grinder and the Pastrami, we went with the employee's suggestion for the latter. About 5 minutes later we were handed a wrapped sandwich the size of a football. We found a quiet spot to unwrap and enjoy it and dug in. Frankly, I wouldn't order it again, and I think we would have enjoyed the grinder more. It was just a huge pile of meat on pumpernickel bread with mustard. Flavor was meh. Neither of us was overwhelmed for nearly $25. Props for the cute European goods in the shop, though, and the employees were courteous and friendly. But next time I'll look elsewhere for lunch.

We ordered our food with the host/cashier and waited at our table for the food to be delivered. My companion's food was delivered and the server asked us if there was anything else. I said my food hadn't come and she asked me what I ordered. I told her it was the Greek goddess. I had to wait quite a long time for my meal to arrive and when it did, the server placed the plate on the table, grabbed the table number and walked away.No apology for the extended wait, no, "enjoy your meal." It was quite rude. The Greek goddess was pretty bland and my friend's soup was boring. The Falafel pita was ok. We have lots of options for lunch in Washington DC. I will not return to this establishment, ever.

There was a line, but it went quickly. All the ladies are super friendly. There's a decent amount of seating inside, none available outside. They don't have water available for your own water bottles, but they have fountain drinks and other bottled beverages. The cashier told us to go find a place to sit and they'd bring our food to us, but all the tables were packed! When she saw us standing there, she asked if there was any seating available and we told her no. She then took our food from the tray there were going to serve it on and nicely packaged it up for us to take to go. She told us there was a Holiday Inn next door with a courtyard, tables and chairs and places to charge our phones. So we went there! The sandwiches are a very generous size. My daughter got a Brooklyn sandwich which is roast beef, banana peppers, American cheese and thousand island dressing. I got a "build your own" sandwich with roast beef, lettuce, tomato, red onion, bacon, mayo and mustard. I couldn't eat all of mine, but my daughter devoured hers! We both really enjoyed our sandwiches!

You then pay at the register and wait for your food to be ready. There are tables toward the back and a bit of seating near a window. There is no outside seating unless you take your food somewhere else like the Holiday Inn courtyard nearby (2 minute walk to the lobby then through glass doors opposite the bathrooms) The food is pretty decent. Breakfast: They have your standard breakfast sandwiches. If you are keto, they can make you egg, cheese, bacon in a small cup. I ordered that often, but their homemade biscuits are really good. I like their bacon egg and cheese biscuits and their croissant bacon egg and cheese biscuits are good too. Lunch: Standard fare for delis. Italian subs, turkey sandwiches, etc. You can make it a combo with soda and chips (on display opposite register).

Unfortunately, this location didn't hold up. The ordering process was a mess from the start. They were out of boneless chicken, so we pivoted to a half chicken... only to be told they were out of that too. Then it turned out they did have it. We ordered the hummus appetizer and got the side portion instead, which meant another trip to the counter to sort it out. We ordered medium peri peri sauce and got something noticeably spicier. Too tired and hungry to send it back, we just ate it... and the meal just didn't hit the way Nando's usually does. The mushy peas we'd been looking forward to aren't even on the menu anymore, which was its own small disappointment. On the bright side, I ordered a 5 oz glass of wine and got what looked like a double pour. Not complaining... but it does sum up the vibe. The staff seemed indifferent, whether it was end-of-night fatigue or just an off-night, hard to say. We'll probably give Nando's another shot elsewhere, but this DC visit was disappointing enough that I can't really recommend this location.
