Seating is first come first serve at this small, but delish wood fire pizza spot. The Dons' is truly worth the hype and is my favorite pizza spot in NOVA. The ingredients are so fresh, the wood fire is so hot, and service is fast. The Dons' have my favorite crust. It's thin, but hardy, perfectly chewy and has that great char from the wood fire. Pizza can be ordered by the slice, small 12'' or a large 18''. You can sit inside or outside, just remember to order at the counter. Bonus points that they carry Juniors cheesecake, making it truly NY style!

This place is amazing! Their salads complimented the pizza perfectly. We got one of their new pizzas that had pepperoni and hot honey drizzled on top. It was absolutely delicious. Their pizza crust is super thin and crispy. We will definitely be back again to try their other pizzas!

Absolutely loved the bread offfered on their sandwiches...had a pita meets pizza crust vibe with a great char from the wood fire. Enjoyed the Italian sandwiches a lot. Super meaty. Also loved the bulgogi beef specialty pie combination of beef and gochujang. Definitely trying more sandwiches and specialty pies the next time I'm back in the DC area

Me and my kiddos came here on a Sunday evening to check this place out. I had to test the theory of being the number one pizza joint in Northern Va. To start off, there was a lot of cool sports memorabilia on the walls. Also the service was great. The pizza was really good and we all enjoyed it!!! Overall we had a great time and enjoyed our wood fire pizza experience. I truly recommend this place if you're in the area.

Rico's Chicken and Bacon Ranch Pizza

I was wanting a good pizza, and preferably wood fired so I checked around. This place was a little bit of a drive but worth trying. There was plenty of free parking, which helped. The staff were very friendly and we grabbed a table right away. The setting is very casual so great for family and friends, but not that romantic first date. The prices are decent, especially given the flavors are solid. On this trip, my wife, son, and I went for the Tommy Gunn tomato and mozzarella, and Rico's bacon chicken ranch. Both were very good; they will not disappoint.

I would actually give 3,5 stars, as their thin crust pizza is not bad. My husband likes pizza and usually he orders delivery or take away, but today we were near by and came in. It's a small place with few tables inside, but they have an outdoor sitting for warmer weather. We got our order fairly quickly, the staff is friendly and nice. I'm not a huge pizza fan, but this place is pretty popular in tge area and they have a lot of takeout orders.

Worth the hype with the fast-service, thin crust, wood-fired pizzas at Don's. It's a delicious-style restaurant with counter ordering, limited service, roughly 6 tables, and no alcohol license. Clearly a popular takeout spot, I noticed they have very good value sliced pizza and various combos. Love how even though the pizza was thin, the thick toppings still held and you could eat with your hands and even fold each slice! Would definitely return

Neapolitan Margherita with The Caesar Salad

Good food and the employees were friendly and helpful too!! The dining room isn't large but on a comfortable evening, sitting outside would be ideal.

This place can do no wrong in my mind! Not only are they a proud Christian establishment (Loveeee thattttt for us)!!!!!! But they make FUEGO (fire ) pizza! Literally, they bake all the pizza in a wood fire oven Anyways, every time I go I try and get a new flavor. So far my favorites are: Buffalo chicken 9/10 Sicilian pizza 9/10 Pepperoni SOLID CHOICE 8/10 Ambiance is casual but cute. The shopping center is nice. There's a decent amount of outdoor and indoor seats combined. However it is a small spot so there aren't plenty of seats if it gets packed. Good spot for groups and families to eat. The pricing is average, it's not overpriced

Two slices and a soda for under $9.00 ? You can't that with a bat !! Kimberly was so helpful with our order .

This is as close as you're going to get to eating a New York pie. There's a special where you can get two slices with any toppings with a drink for under $10.00. You'd pay more at McDonald's for heart attack food. Kimberly who takes the orders is an absolute doll! She was so sweet to me and my son and every time we are in Virginia this is spot is a must . Kimberly should get a raise ! She's a terrific Puerto Rican young female who looks like Lauren Velez . I really think this is the best pizzeria in the whole DMV Area easily .

Meat Pizza

FAIR PRICE!! I stopped in for lunch and found the place pleasantly quiet. The staff delivered excellent customer service throughout my visit. I tried a slice of pizza and Angelo's Chicken Pesto Sandwich. The pizza was thin and crispy, with no char, a flavorful sauce, just the right amount of cheese, and a perfect topping ratio- everything you'd want in a great pizza. The sandwich was generously sized, easily shareable, and a fantastic value for the price. However, it was a bit oily, which made it slightly soggy, so I'd recommend asking for the oil on the side next time. Overall, it's a spot worth checking out!

I'd like to order online and/or the mobile app. But it doesn't offer comments or adjustments anywhere! I always order 3 toppings with 4th topping split 1/2. For example: on one half pepperoni and on the other half mushrooms. When will there be a fix?

My apologies, but I really have no answer to your great question. Next time I go there I'll sure try to find out.

Stumbled upon this gyro spot that had a lot of classic Greek food. My girlfriend had a sore throat…read moreso we got the lemon chicken soup which was light, citrus and very yummy. The gyro was massive and packed full of meat and also very good. Paired with their fries and potatoes (which were heavily seasoned and absolutely amazing) made for a super filling and tasty quick dinner. One of my new favorite spots for gyros in the DMV! Entrees: Gyro Pita Sides: Roasted Greek Potatoes and Avgolemono (Lemon Chicken Soup)

BLUF: After all these years and several locations later, Big Greek Cafe still delivers good food at…read morea decent value. The service at the Sterling location on the day I visited was excellent. Friendly, patient, helpful, and polite. The feel of the location itself is your typical fast-food joint. Get in. Get out. Seemed clean enough. Not very cozy as in a great place to hang out. Not sure how it is during peak hours but the parking lot might get a bit crowded. The street for sure is busy & can cause cars to back up into the parking lot. The food, while not as awesome as I remembered it 5 years ago in MD, is still tasty. Today's visit, the meat in gyros was a bit dry & the gyros & the side of fries I paid full price for were rather skimpy in serving, given that the gyros used to be served with fries included in the price of the gyro. Still, the fries & the gyros still taste good. Not as good a value as in days of old...even on $7 gyro Wednesdays (which used to be $5 gyro Wednesdays). The fried fish sandwich was a good deal in these horrible economic times because it comes with a good-sized filet and fries. Although, $2 extra for Greek fries that only had a tablespoon of garlic, dry herbs, and feta crumbles tossed on top rolling off the fries then pooling at the bottom of the container. The garlic, herbs, & feta are supposed to stick to piping hot fries steaming with the awesome garlicky oil. What I received was really underwhelming and didn't even come close to the Greek fries I remember. So, I'll preface this review conclusion with this: Big Greek Cafe was one of my absolute favorite local joints... the food made me drool just thinking about it. The food was always plentiful in servings, hot, fresh, aromatic, wonderfully delicious, and everything on the menu was such a good value, you'd end up buying a ton of food. Was this trip worth the drive? Glad the curiosity about whether this VA location equaled the MD experiences was satisfied. Probably no longer high on my list to go out of my way to drive 30 minutes to get what used to be my fav sandwich. It seems a little too fast-foodsy, mass-produced now than the original delectable hole-in-the-wall local joint. If I'm in the area again, I'll definitely pick up something because it's still tasty...just not as fantastic as I remember.

Actually well priced delicious, and healthy, vegan and vegetarian food. I got a black bean burger…read morewhich despite basically being the texture of chili was really really tasty and I'd totally get it again, and I got a strawberry muffin (99¢) which was also vegan and tasted great. Can't believe I'd never been here before.

Vegetarian and Vegan never tasted so good…read more Yes it's organic, it's naked, it's good for you and me and I actually felt myself getting energized with every bite and sip. Welcome to the all natural Naked Lunch located inside Mom's Organic Market on Elden Street in Herndon, Virginia. Everything is made in house and from scratch - awesome bowls, soups, muffins and the lovely juice bar. The piece de resistance- the amazing team here - Trevor( an angel and just the sweetest kid in the world), Osvaldo - another kind and great guy; Ken - a gentleman a worker and just so courteous, Maris - we talk about our families, Jose, Kendall and the awesome Ashley. They know their stuff and are hard workers who not only preach it but live it and practice it. Their genuine love and care transfers to the healthy fare and makes it even better. Their black bean burger is unique and delicious; their pomegranate muffins are to die for. Their sushi bowls, molar bowls, confetti bowls( please see the menu photo) are so unique and exquisite. All the dressings are made in house and they are stupendous. I have missed out on the soup a few times( sold out in the first hour). The place is casual with tall seating stools and a self help table w plastic ware and napkins. I don't think I am doing a good job and justice by writing about this. Not even close. So get your clothed butt down to Naked Lunch for a healthy, fun and habit forming experience. Juice bar open 9-8 daily. Kitchen 11-8.

Sorry, but that's the blandest, flattest, tasteless food I've ever eaten, Mexican or otherwise…read more Zero taste. Could have been eating paste. Tacos: flat. No spice, no flavor. Enchiladas: ditto. Paste. Wifey says their breakfast burritos are good. Not sure I'm in any hurry to try.

So I didn't even know this place existed. I was heading to my go to pho spot and I saw this place…read morenext door so I did what we Yelpers do and I went to see if there were any reviews and there were ... and it was an overall 5 star rating with a good 18 reviews ! I HAD TO GO TRY IT! Upon entering I was immediately greeted and given a moment to review the menu on the wall. The cashier was super friendly and helpful and answered all the questions I had. I decided to go with a small order of chips and queso and the shrimp fajita avocado salad. I was given my chips and salsa and given a buzzer which would identify me when my salad was ready. In the meantime I visited the salsa and accompaniment bar where there were tons of fresh salsa and veggie options. The chips and queso were BOMB! My salad was ready in about 10 minutes and the cashier brought it to my table which was super nice. That salad seriously looked and tasted like something that should and would be in a fine dining Mexican restaurant ... the shrimp were plentiful and plump and tasted as though they were truly seared on a fajita flat top along with the peppers and onions. It came along w a side of ranch and for this ranch lover to not have even used the ranch tells you just how flavorful this salad was! Everyone dining in the restaurant was so so so into their meals that I had to giggle because I was too and we all had not one care in the world. Although the restaurant itself is smaller and casual it truly gives off big dog legit Mexican fine dining! I will absolutely be back and / or ordering from Door Dash!
