Amazing food! Amazing service!

A very nice lebannes food place. Kabobs are really tasty. Price is little on the higher side. Have both inside and outside seating arrangements. The location is great at Bethesda. Lambs are highly recommended. Coffees are okay. They served olive oil and bread/nun as free starters. The service is very good. Highly recommend.

My wife and I ate here for the first time last night. It had a great atmosphere, fantastic service, and delicious food & drinks. I forgot to take a picture of our dessert because it was so good it was gone before it occurred to me to take a photo. We’ll be going back again soon!

Hosted a ladies dinner party the other night here and everything was perfect! The ambiance, the service, the food! From the moment we arrived the owner/ host Zayd was so gracious, even helping us carry things to our table. We loved the plush wall seating. We ordered several small plates including hummus, eggplant dip, kalaje, and kibbeh. Everything was delicious but the Kibbeh for sure was the best I've ever had - so fresh and with flavor. We had the chicken tawouk and lamb kabobs for dinner - also perfectly cooked, great flavors and the accompanying white sauce was so good! We also REALLY appreciated that the meat is Halal. Thanks for everything - we will be back!

We've been going to Bacchus for years, and have loved the food. It's disappointing now - cheap and miserly. Case in point: they used to serve normal sized drinks. Tonight I ordered a Mediterranean Blue Curacao drink. It came in a 3" glass, about 2.5" in diameter. Filled with ice. $14. Later, I ordered a second one, asked for no ice. It came back half full. When I expressed my disappointment to the manager, he was rude. He grabbed the drink, and my previous one, and walked away. DON'T GO TO BACCHUS, lots of nicer restaurants in Bethesda.

This restaurant never disappoints. They offer healthy options that are cooked to perfection. The added bonus is the enclosed 'outdoor' seating that is heated during the colder months.

When we walked in we sure if we would sit outside or at the bar … but we saw the bar corner was open and we made the right choice.. the bartender kept our bottle of wine on ice .. the bartender recommended the best appetizers and man were they delicious.. we shared the branzino fish and wow… can’t ask for better in Bethesda 6 out of 5 stars!!! Best date night in a while

The cheese and the beef egg rolls are OUTSTANDING! I drive from VA to get them. The service was great and the food was yummy. I enjoyed the appetizers mainly which I love. Stay away from non traditional dishes like the calamari, but rather go for hummus, baba ghanush, shawarma and of course kalaj. I highly recommend

The staff was so friendly. The food was amazing. It was hands down the best meal I've had in a long time. The chicken shawarma was incredible. I added yogurt sauce on the side and it was heavenly. The guava juice was also delicious. I made my own cocktail by ordering the guava juice and vodka and it was great. The amazing food and drinks paired with the friendly and caring staff made for a very enjoyable experience!

Rough experience. Service was really really slow. Took over half a hour to get get a chicken wrap. Taste was very mediocre. Could do much better at home. Overpriced for the quantity too. Stay away
