    Bait and Switch!  Came in for a happy hour draft and they don't even have a Keg!
    Toni W.

    We walked into this place on a Saturday because of this sign. This was the sign on the tabletop, but this exact sign was on the window. We go in at 4 on a Saturday (happy hour times) and not only did they not have a Keg, but all they had in the cooler were like 5 Stella bottled beer. They also didn't honor a happy hour price for those beers. This is a classic bait and switch gimmick and by the time we were in there ordering our food and find out no happy hours drafts...we were too late to back out. The wings were good and the staff were nice but this false advertising has got to go!

    $9.99 for lunch. This included wing/breast or leg/thigh + rice and beans + salad + 3 sauces + pita bread + drink. This deal is great. It tasted good. My child loved it.

    Village Bowl
    Caroline J.

    Just looking at the stars I thought this would be a yummy quick place for lunch but the food was terrible! I ordered the village bowl #4 which includes gyro meat and pulled chicken along with rice, chick peas lettuce tomato and feta. First off the gyro meat and pulled chicken pieces were overcooked little pieces of meat. No flavor to them at all. The chickpeas were in some type of red sauce that tasted like a bad tomato sauce. Could not eat. Rice was overcooked and everything came all mixed together which, yes I understand is the point of a bowl but the res sauce over the chickpeas was on everything. I ate about a 1/4 and threw the rest away. The only really good thing was the pita bread I got on the side.

    Arrived around 1:00 and was greeted by a nice gentleman. He quickly took my order. Food was ready in about five minutes. Chicken had good flavor and the sides were good. Will return next time I'm in the area at lunch time.

    Leg and thigh plate

    I wanted to like this place so bad because I just moved into the neighborhood next to it Service was good. I ordered at the counter and food was really quick. I paid around $10 for a chicken leg/thigh, rice, beans, pita bread, and a drink. Pretty good deal in my opinion The food was just missing seasoning for me. I was so excited to dive in but the visual didn't match the taste. The beans were lacking salt, rice was fine, and chicken was fine. It was all just fine. Was hoping for more flavor. I'll give it another shot and try something else next time.

    I went here for the first time today after reading the reviews on yelp and google. I ordered using their website and the food was ready in 15 minutes! We ordered the lamb gyro and the gyro bowl, both were great! The lamb gyro and bowl were both filled with tons of meat and ingredients which made it very filling. The sides of the fried and cucumber salad were also good additions. When we went to pick it up the employee who greeted me was so pleasant and helpful. I will definitely be back again soon!

    My girlfriend and I wanted a more wholesome lunch today and this restaurant definitely has ma y healthy food options. We've di ed-out here a couple of times and mhave really enjoyed it. The first time that we came here was many years ago when they were in a other part of the shopping center. I particularly like the 1/4 pound breast & wing chicken platter. It comes with a slice of pita bread, a fountain drink, and two sides. Today I got the macaroni & cheese and rice & beans for the sides. It really is a lot of food for less than $11.50. My girlfriend ordered the gyro platter which also came with two sides and a fountain drink. Our orders were prepared in less than five minutes, and soon enough we found a table near the front of the restaurant. The same Owner still works here and he took our orders and it was a good experience, like always!

    Love the rooster decor. Small clean friendly atmosphere. They let my kids taste sauces in advance. Service was quick and staff double checked the particulars of our order... addressing kids directly. Food was hot and kids gobbled down bbq wings and a chicken burrito. Paper towels and hot sauce already on the table.... bonus! ... and they gave take home trays without us asking cuz they saw we were gonna need them...

    This was the first time I've been, so I just got the lunch special to go. The chicken was so juicy (I'm always wary of dry chicken). Additionally, the rice and beans were very tasty and I don't usually like beans! There was also salsa verde and hummus (not pictured) on the side. Additionally, the lunch special came with a soda. This was also a TON of food for only $5!!! Will definitely have to make a trip back!

    Payment went through next day for food that was never received

    Second best sandwiches I have ever had, but best on the East coast…read more I'm in Arlington on business from the West Coast and was looking for a quick lunch spot when I stumbled into this little hidden gem. I've eaten at plenty of delis over the years, but Eddie's Little Shop completely surprised me with flavors I've genuinely never tasted before. The sandwiches here are incredibly unique, creative combinations that just explode with flavor in ways I wasn't expecting. What really stood out were the huge, fresh chunks of real mozzarella, paired with their homemade-style dressings, sauces, and condiments. It's easily one of the best sandwiches I've ever had, and I've tried a lot. The portions are generous, the bread is spot-on. I'll definitely be back before my trip ends. If you're in Arlington, do not miss Eddie's Little Shop Deli. Highly, highly recommended!

    ALEXANDRIA, Va. - Hello, 911? I'd like to report an attempted murder…read more Eddie's tried to kill me with a monstrous sandwich. Saturday, midafternoon, I stop by for an Eddie Mootz ($17) (salami, ham, sopressata, mozzarella, on seeded italian). I'm handed this brown paper bag that weighs, I dunno, 3 lbs? I have to carry this back with me to the Metro. Twice along the way, I have to stop and catch my breath. I get home, my kitchen counter sags a bit where I put the bag down. Cripes, Eddie's. And the sandwich itself? 2 meals, easily. Thick thick piles of meat and a shovel-full of mozzarella. Very chewy bread. I work up a sweat just eating this, there's so much labor involved. I ordered online from the Metro, around the DCA stop, and got a notification it was ready before I got to the King Street stop. Fast turnaround. Eddie's is now on my list of places to make a point of going to for sandwiches in the DMV. Really good sandwich, and a lot of it.

Also a bit too much lettuce and not enough italIan dressing IMO. I dont need dripping but looking for the herb taste which isn't there. I did appreciate them bring our sandwich to us. That was helpful as front had lots of folks waiting for carryout. Overall its barely a 4.... but yelp doesn't let me do partial points... absolutely more than a 3. Ohhh dont forget a sweater.

    Capo Italian Deli - Old Town Alexandria…read more I reviewed our new Old Town neighbor - Capo Italian Deli - early in 2026. Time for an update. The deli is outstanding. Taking up a tiny footprint on the N. Washington Avenue thoroughfare, a few seconds from King Street, the deli delivers both hot and cold deli entrees, soft drinks, and salads. There's maybe half a dozen tables inside and a couple of tables outside, but from what I have seen thus far, most of the trade is with carry-out service, drawing from the excellent reputation Capo brought with it as it arrived in Old Town (the restaurant has siblings in Shaw NW, and Western Market in the District, Tyson's Corner in Vienna, VA, Annapolis and Potomac, MD). Fresh Philly rolls for those seeking a traditional hero sandwich, with go-to seasonings and all of the essential protein groups. My favorite is a large half roast beef half turkey with lettuce, tomato, and mayo (I skip the Italian dressing, which is part of the default, and I skip the cheese). I can and have made this $18 sandwich last three meals (so I ask them to cut the sandwich into three pieces), and the ingredients stay fresh for the next 24 hours. The last time I did this the sandwich fed me from 4:45 a.m. to 9 p.m., as I served as an election officer at one of Alexandria's polling places. Neat, trim, and completely satisfying. Just a point of concern: given its location, the opportunity to double-park while picking up an order seems to be just too tempting. This location, however, cannot over the long term sustain double-parkers. The deli is about 100 feet from the intersection of King Street and N. Washington Street. There is a dedicated lane for cars seeking to park adjacent to the deli. And then there are two northbound lanes on N. Washington Street. That's it - just two lanes serving one of the busiest intersections in Old Town. If a delivery-service car pulls up alongside one of the parked cars, all hell will break loose by drivers who suddenly find a delivery vehicle double-parking in front of Capo, leaving but one northbound lane open for however long it takes for the delivery agent to gather the order and beat it out of there. This happens with remarkable frequency, starting at about 11 a.m. and running throughout the day. That's not going to make good neighbors of Capo's nearby shops. Alexandria Parking has its work cut out for it, but here the rule prohibiting double-parking has to be enforced - it's both a safety issue and an issue of common courtesy. Doesn't matter if you think you'll just be in and out of the deli in seconds. We know it doesn't work that way, not always, and here - not even often. More often than not the double-parker will be creating a traffic hazard just by parking alongside a parked car in front of the deli. Please, don't do this.

    This review is based solely on the customer service I received over the phone…read more I had placed a $62 order through DoorDash and chose Capo even though there are plenty of other deli spots nearby, because they normally make really good sandwiches. Unfortunately, the customer service this time was extremely disappointing. I called with a simple question about the bread since I have braces and needed something soft. The person who answered the phone was rude and dismissive, acting as if my call was an inconvenience. When I asked which bread was the softest, he cut me off to say they were "super busy" and could only change the bread on one sandwich, not both. I asked again for clarification, and he continued sounding irritated and uninterested in helping. He repeated that they had a line of people and needed to know which one sandwich I wanted to change. For the amount I paid, the lack of basic courtesy and willingness to answer a straightforward question was unacceptable. This will be my last time ordering from Capo in Alexandria, VA.

The worker at first looked confused when I mentioned the weekend special platter, and after I showed her the Instagram post from Jummah Bakery about the special, she at first said that it was a breakfast item only. The Instagram post listed a time from 10am-1pm, and it was noon when I arrived. When I pointed out the time, the worker seemed to make excuses again to say that the item wasn't available that day. This was despite signage in the restaurant mentioning about the weekend special. Also I was weirded out by the fact that there are burgers on the menu, it seemed really unnecessary. *Wraps: We ordered the chicken kabob wrap and beef gyro. I suppose they were edible, but very lacking of the level of depth and flavor typical of Afghan food that you'd find in the typical Afghan kabob restaurants in the area. The chicken wrap even contained ketchup which turned the flavor into basic American!! *Desserts: We also ordered multiple pastries / sweets that were behind the very inviting glass displays. My favorite was the baklava, the remaining ones I tried were just okay. As usual with this type of cuisine, the desserts are quite sweet. *Tea: They have multiple types of chai tea, I ordered one, it seemed to lack in actual tea flavor and had a weird egg flavor that didn't balance well with the tea. I wouldn't order it again. As much as I want to support a neighborhood ethnic-owned business, the questionable customer service and watered-down food makes me hesitant. It's really sad because the bakery looks very beautiful and has so much potential, but I think it's not managed well, the customer experience ends up feeling bizarre and inauthentic.

The food took about 10 minutes to prepare and came out piping hot. The cinnamon roll was room temperature, as it came from the display case and it was excellent!
