So I have no issue with small portions - I just don't want to pay $14.00 for one, especially not one that's sub-par. My husband and I ordered for lunch today and we paid quite a lot since we love Lebanese food.We received a half-filled tiny container of rice, styrofoam containers with one section taken up by a sauce, the second taken up by a couple fries, and the third with half-fries, and a few pieces of tiny, overcooked chicken.We also only got 4 quarter-pieces of pita between two meals...Again, would've been fine if we hadn't paid $14.00 per meal, and the food we DID get was overcooked and kinda stale.Definitely not gonna run this one back.

Family run operation. Mother (I suspect) cooked awesome food and young lady served us well with a smile. Not an ambient or cozy spot. But if you like good food and friendly service for a quick bite, this should be place. I gave 5 stars because nothing was short of what they offered.

First time trying this place and I will not be returning. The food was cold when I picked up even though I was three minutes away when I placed the order. The meat tasted old and was cold . The pita bread is not made from scratch ( store bought) . I was looking forward to a tasty meal and was very disappointed. With all the bad reviews I’m shocked to see that the owners don’t care to make improvements. Do not waste your time spending your hard earned money here because you’ll be disappointed…just being honest.

Best Lebanese Food in the DMV region.

We ordered 3 Grilled Chicken. Apparently, they were short staffed or what not. But when we got the chicken, they were burnt like black charcoal. The owner's son about 14 years old delivered the food outside at the curb side. I told him to take it back as I can’t eat this burnt chicken. Not healthy at all. He was on the phone with his dad or someone named Hassan. He would not take the chicken back. The mistake we did was we paid in advance. NEVER do that unless you see the cooked food. It was only $57 so I didn’t care that much about the money. The quality was for animals to eat not human beings. The kid gave me his father or the owners number. I texted him the attached photos. He said sorry we can’t do anything. This is the way we grill chicken in Lebanon. Say What? Never ever going back to this place.

Store looks fairly clean. Not many items on the shelves. Items do not have price tags. In general, variety of grocery is very limited. I didn't try the restaurant part and didn't make any other purchase.

Good middle Eastern food. Priced well. Their mezze were really good... both the hommus and the baba ghanoush. Was a bit disappointed that they didn't offer harissa. Service was a bit slow but they were friendly. Liked being able to shop for ME groceries at the attached market that offered authentic regional items.

Bad food bad Service never come Again .

We just had All Nakheel cater a party for 25– once again, they did not disappoint! Delicious food prepared on time and presented beautifully. I highly recommend them— great chicken shwarma and falafel!

Great place. Deserving of a return trip
