DCG (District Chicken and Gyro) is hands down the best place for a meat-over-rice platter in the DC and DMV area. The portions are incredibly generous, and the value for money is unbeatable.
For just $10–$12, you get a massive platter loaded with rice, flavorful meat, and fresh salad. Everything is well seasoned, satisfying, and consistently delicious. It’s the kind of meal that fills you up without hurting your wallet.
Overall, DCG is a go-to spot if you’re craving great halal-style platters with huge portions at an extremely economical price. Highly recommended!

Heard a lot of hype about DCG. The mixed platter was delicious and the sauce hit the spot. It was pretty pricey and the establishment could definitely be much cleaner.

Can’t believe it’s been this long. I remember DCG from when it was in Georgetown and there was always a line. I found myself in Tysons Corner after the theater and couldn’t wait to have some of this. It’s truly been too long. The food was good. I was at the front of the line. There’s places to sit and eat. The service was efficient. Would return!

The quality of food is coming down there by day the chicken, the rice, and how they clean the veggies and the cleaning environment and all that
The owner really has to do something about it. The quality of the rise has come down very bad.

I love this place. The only reason I am giving 1 star is because of less or neither sauces on online orders. Not one time, not two times, almost everytime. Damn it, without the sauces, everything tastes like shit. For God Sake, stop accepting online orders then.

Delicious. Steady line was a great sign. Great pricing. Service was a little reminiscent of Seinfeld’s soup nazi (“Next!”, no smiles). Front of house was cozy. Where you order (at the back) lacks any deliberate atmosphere… kind of a temporary-became-forever vibe. But who cares… it was delicious and I’d go back if in the area.

Best chicken and rice EVER! I was very impressed with the flavour of the food, the chicken was spiced to perfection and soft and the rice was delicately flavored but delicious. The salad was fresher and crispy, more than I expect from a halal chicken place. Another review mentioned the white sauce being a must try and I concur, also the red sauce was spicy but flavorful (not just heat). Location is a no frills modest small restaurant but the food definitely more than makes up for it. All in all – I think I have found my go to quick and easy lunch spot.

Update:
Reward points do not work here. If DCG are going offer reward points, then they should honor it.
I went to DCG today to claim my free platter and the cashier said it did not work. I ended up just paying for it. Please Fix!
The only negative about this place is the damn line.
I love their menu. It is short and everything on the menu is great.
This was my first time having Dubai chocolate. It has a very interesting texture and great taste.
I had the chicken over rice with all the vegetables on my first trip on my second trip I had the gyro and chicken combo. Both times it was amazing. I definitely recommend this place. I don’t know what’s better DCG or Flavor Hive both are amazing.

The falloff of this place needs to be studied. Food is super greasy, you can tell they don’t clean their stove tops. The veggies aren’t fresh at all and taste like they’re rotten. I took 1 bite and wanted to throw up from how bad it was. I hope they can fix whatever problems they’re having with their food quality.

I love DCG, but on recent online orders they’re not putting any sauces. Like Ive literally asked for an extra sauce. Is this a joke. Terrible service. Wouldn’t be ordering or even getting anything from the restaurant.
