    I went there to buy bread first of all the bread gotten much smaller and for the same price and finally when I checked in with yelp I was supposed to have 4 falafel for free they didn't give it

    Lamb Kabab Plate

    3 Stars too Low, Will settle for 4; Pretty Good, Can't complain. Ordered the kabob platter and falafels, was pleased with the platter - only would have wished for one more skewer of meat. The falafels were adequate to say the least, lacked flavor and depended on the tahini, although the tahini was 10/10. Server was polite, and food came out fast. I recommend using the bread as a chip dipper as seen in the photo. Overall, 72.5/100

    Mix Shawarma
    Kareem T.

    Shawarma is complicated!! Believe me! It's multiple spices and many ways to do it! Leave alone you have at least 3 different cultures competing who makes the best! Greek calls it Yeero ( Gyro) , Turkish calls it Döner and Arabs call it Shawarma .. Well , they actually make it slightly different than each other (assuming each one was made really authentic!) I'm not the Person who would give the word "The Best" to everyone and everything! That devalue the word ! But do we only at "The Best" places only? Or everyday?? Simply No! Taza aren't the best (taste wise) Shawarma but they are really good! They are Iraqi style Shawarma and they make the best Iraqi bread (Samoon) also they have great Iraqi Kabob and grilled chicken! They got the perfect equation! ALL FRESH INGREDIENTS- FRESH BREAD MADE IN THE HOUSE - FRESH MEAT FROM THE GRILL ( Either Shawarma from the vertical grill or Kebab from the charcoal grill) - AFFORDABLE PRICES - GREAT FRIENDLY CUSTOMER SERVICE = what else do you need?? Must try while you're in Fairfax and a very practical affordable meal at anytime! I'm craving to go back and get more Iraqi Kabab next time! They have family meals that I might try next time!

    Half my chicken shawarma sandwich
    Jade H.

    I was feeling lazy and tired of doing dishes for the 283739 time during this quarantine and decided to look up shawarma options in the area. Taza would always show up as an option on Yelp but for whatever reason I never went. I finally decided to give it a shot (being so close) and ordered the chicken shawarma wrap and hummus to go through their site. When I arrived, I called the shop to let them know I was outside and the owner informed me that although I received confirmation that my order was ready it wasn't. Unbeknownst to me, they had just implemented their order online option and I was the first to use it! He said it would be a couple of mins and that he would bring it out when it was ready. When the owner brought out the food to the car he was very sweet and apologetic , but I reminded him again that it was okay and not a big deal! The food was delicious and the customer service topped off the experience. I only wished they pressed/toasted my wrap longer (if they even did it at all).

    Falafel Bowl
    Radha P.

    Probably some of the best proportioned and well priced falafel I have had in a while. The yellow rice was perfectly cooked and very flavorful. The vegetables were crispy and fresh. The falafel was ok. It was kind of hard and not very flavorful. Also got harissa on the side, wasn't sure if that was ok at first but it wouldn't been nice if it were offered as an option at checkout. The server was very kind and plenty of seating inside and outside. Well lit everywhere.

    Not very good falafel bowl
    Jeffrey K.

    I was not very impressed by this restaurant. I asked the server to make a falafel bowl the way he would like to eat it himself and either he has very poor taste or it was an off day because I love mediterranean food. I ate it daily during my college years! Anyway, the bowl he made was just odd and not something I would want to eat a lot of. It was cold and also lukewarm so the temperature profile just sucked. Flavors were bland mixed with the sour acidic taste of the pickled veggies so it was nauseating. I requested hot sauce to salvage the meal and the hot sauce was really spicy but very delicious.

    Falafel in samoon
    Sydney G.

    I discovered taza falafel by accident and what a happy accident it was! I was at the coffee shop next door and feeling very hungry and thought falafel would hit the spot. I opted for their falafel wrap on samoon bread which came loaded with 5 Pieces of Falafel, Lettuce, Tomatoes, Red Turnips, Hummus and Tahini. It was fantastic. They have bags of fresh baked bread to go, so I of course had to get some. They also had some of their shawarma meat frozen that you can take home with you, which I was thrilled about since I live in DC and fairfax is quite a hike for me. I'm so sad there's not a location closer bc I loved it so much!! 10/10

    I work near by so this spot has been my go to sometimes for a quick grab and go. They have option for bowls and wraps, and various different sides. I usually get the chicken shawarma bowl and have been satisfied with it. Due to the COVID pandemic, mask required to enter. They also have hand sanitizers available at the front. I have also always seen staff at the front with mask.

    I really wanted to like Taza Falafel but it wasn't as tasty as I expected it to be especially after reading all of the reviews. I ordered takeout mixed shawarma bowl and falafel as well as Ayran to drink. The falafel was very delicious. However, the shawarma bowl left a lot to be desired. The meat was dry and the rice was very moist. I was also put off by the toum, as I was expecting a nice thick garlicky paste and this was almost watery and tasteless. Maybe I'll try it again to see if it was an off day, but it won't be for a while.

    Lamb & Beef Shawarma wrap
    Derek L.

    First time here and it's not bad. I ordered the beef and lamb shawarma wrap for 10.69$ with a side of tzatziki sauce. The shawarma wrap was slightly above mid. Meat was not as flavorful and juicy as I was expected. Each bite of the wrap as a whole was leaning towards the dry side as well. Tzatziki sauce had too much mint flavorful. Felt like I was eating toothpaste with the wrap. All in all I'll be coming back to try some other items on the menu, but I doubt I'll be ordering the beef and lamb shawarma again.

I've also ordered delivery from other branches multiple times, and one of the most frustrating patterns across locations is the extremely small amount of sauce provided. The sauce cups are already tiny to begin with, but many times they are only filled halfway. What makes this more confusing is that even when ordering a sauce sampler, which clearly suggests the customer enjoys the sauces and wants variety, the portions are still minimal. It gives the impression that the restaurant is trying to cut corners on very basic things that significantly affect the customer experience. Overall, between the inconsistent service, sloppy food preparation, and inadequate portions for add-ons like sauces, the experience has been disappointing enough that I would choose other options instead.

Here's why: - Quality: every item was fresh, and the falafel was not dry! I usually don't opt for falafel bc of how dry it is, but this one really wasn't! It was filling but moist and delicious. Also, the veggies and sauces paired well to give it flavor and texture. Again, usually not a fan of falafel, but I was this time. - Service: Food was pretty quick and the staff were really kind considering how busy the shop was. It took about 10 minutes to get the food. - Ambiance: This is a grab and go place. They have some high tables to quickly scarf down your meal or package your to go bag, but I suggest walking around Georgetown area to eat your food elsewhere. I will absolutely visit again and bring vegetarian friends. Such a bang for your buck!

I feel bad writing this but I believe Writing Authentic and honest review may inspire the owner to level up his food . That said, the food quality did not meet expectations. The falafel was overly firm and dry. The Greek salad lacked freshness--the lettuce appeared past its prime, and the tomatoes were soft and aging. Overall, it felt like a basic tossed salad with feta rather than a well-composed dish. The hummus had a smooth texture, but the flavor suggested a blended oil rather than a clean extra virgin olive oil profile. The pita was the strongest element of the meal--fresh and well prepared. Additionally, the use of styrofoam containers detracted from the overall experience. In summary, while the service at closing was considerate, the food did not reflect what I would consider high-quality or authentic Greek cuisine. .

After obtaining our food we went to their outdoor eating area where we stood and prepared ourselves to feast. Both the falafel sandwich and bowl were filled to the brim with falafel, cabbage, pickles, tomatoes, cucumber, and a substantial serving of tahini. We also had the privilege of being able to help ourselves to extra sauces, which included garlic sauce (toum), red sauce, white sauce, habibi sauce, and more tahini. After taking a few bites of the food, we knew we had made a great decision coming to this location. Dipping the zaatar fries into the garlic sauce became second nature, as the combination was truly delicious. The cherry on the top was their baklava that came in a small, sliding cardboard box. The baklava was not overly sweet and perfectly complemented the savory falafel dishes. I highly recommend coming here for an affordable and delicious meal!

They were quite busy - and seemed the two employees working were a bit overwhelmed. There were a few people waiting for food, a line to order, they were out of containers for sauces, and some of the sauces were empty. I ended up waiting for an extra 25 minutes until I asked to check on an order - it was apparent from their reaction, our order got lost in the shuffle. Once they realized, they made it right away, which was appreciated. However, they grabbed a bag of fries that had been sitting on the counter since I walked in - so they were cold. Good thing - they do great in the air fryer! I've never experienced these issues before and it won't stop me from returning, definitely felt like a bit of an off night for them. Solid food, great cause, and one of the best affordable options for a quick bite at the Wharf! Recommend them!

The sauce cups are already tiny to begin with, but many times they are only filled halfway. What makes this more confusing is that even when ordering a sauce sampler, which clearly suggests the customer enjoys the sauces and wants variety, the portions are still minimal. It gives the impression that the restaurant is trying to cut corners on very basic things that significantly affect the customer experience. Overall, between the inconsistent service, sloppy food preparation, and inadequate portions for add-ons like sauces, the experience has been disappointing enough that I would choose other options instead.

They make and fry the falafel right in front of you and make everything to order. Love the sauce bar that you can grab from and they have all of the different flavors you need right there. They have bags and to go containers that you can get at any point. Service I do think this might be one of the slower locations, but they are always efficient. They do have a kiosk for you to order from. Ambiance In Western Market so no assigned seating, but might be the easiest location to sit down at because it is a food hall. There is so much open seating for you to find a seat at and the other locations are lacking in that.

    Among all the vendors at Western Market, Falafel stood out for how quick, affordable, and…read moremeaningful the experience was. The service was SUPER fast--perfect for a busy lunch/dinner rush-- and the price was very reasonable. The falafel itself was crispy on the outside, soft and flavorful on the inside, and everything tasted fresh. I also tried their za'atar fries, which were seasoned perfectly and totally addictive, sch a great side! What made the experience even better was knowing that every meal helps feed refugees in need. If you are looking for a quick, tasty, HEALTHY, and budget-friendly meal with a mission, Falafel is absolutely worth stopping by. :)
