I really enjoy this place for lunch. Fairly quick service even when busy. A major note for vegans, V is for Vegetarian here and VG for Vegan. Not the common way I've seen it around town so it's something to pay attention to.Had the hummus with the soft pita. Very tasty and if you are a scooper like me then is just enough pita.

Always a solid meal. The fattoush salad is great and so is the chicken shawarma bowl

I don’t know why or how, but we must have been unlucky. Had cafe latte that I decided to toss out: watery, bitter, just no fun. If I hadn’t already walked aways I would have returned to give them a chance to redo. Maybe they took skim instead of whole milk, but then again the foam was almost non-existent either. Just a sad first impression. That said, the chocolate croissant was good, hence 3 stars.

This cafe was nearby our hotel so we decided to check it out and it did NOT disappoint! We were here for about 4 days and have come here 3 times within our stay because the service and food is incredible. Food comes out in literally 10 minutes max, regardless of how busy it is, and it’s hot and fresh. They also do latte art which we were very excited about and it was absolutely lovely. The cafe is very very clean and the staff is so warm and welcoming. Prices are also awesome. Thank you for being amazing! Happy to know that they have another location in DC so we can always swing by for some good eats!

Delicious food and a comfortable atmosphere to enjoy it in! The falafel grain bowl makes for a flavorful and wholesome lunch, and the coffee is quite a treat as well.

Had the short rib grilled cheese panini...one of the best paninis I've ever had.

Filli Cafe is really the place to be! The chai is always delicious and the food is just as perfect. My favorite items are the foodles, beef burger and the muska bun!! Everything was very delicious and hit all the right spots! I also love the cafe's ambiance, you can go there with family or friends. It's always lit up with a lot of warmth and friendly staff! Definitely go here if you want to enjoy good chai and food!

I eat here pretty frequently. The interior vibe is lovely and I always enjoy the mushroom panini + fattoush salad. Today I decided to try their breakfast offerings. It's a Saturday morning and seems they have a few tables reserved for a large party--but otherwise not too busy.I ordered the American scramble, which was supposed to be made with cheddar cheese. The dish I received, however, did not have cheese at all. My meal also came with two slices of bread but nothing to dress the bread with. When I asked for butter, the waitress glanced at me with seeming contempt and simply said "sure." Minutes later, she returned with only one (1) small packet of butter that was ice cold and completely solid. Not only was this an insufficient amount for two gigantic slices of bread, but the butter was practically inedible!The service I experienced today made me feel like a nuisance to the staff at Fili. After the butter ordeal, I did not even feel welcome to inquire about the cheese that was missing from the food I ordered. Furthermore, the food I received was rather bland and the roasted potatoes lacked seasoning. I am unsure at this time if I will be returning to Fili when you pay such a premium price for lackluster food and unfriendly service.

Love this place!! Come for the food and stay for dessert!

I went to this place to experience something different, and that difference was delicious.
