Great location! Great food! Great customer service! This location has its own parking lot. Surrounded by many shops. Also they do have a hooks or sheesha lounge! Excellent job

You will love it if you are into hookah
To me, it was too dark. The smell of hookah was overpowering the place.
The cleanliness level was not the best.
Don’t expect a great service.
The food was ok. It’s not good or bad.
Parking is available.
I wouldn’t go back to be honest.

A Taste of the Mediterranean offers a delightful escape with its vibrant, authentic cuisine. The Baba Ghanouj, Arnabeet and the Manaeesh Zaatar Labneh are standout appetizers, while the kofta grill and The Chicken Shawarma Sandwiches as main courses. The warm, inviting atmosphere and attentive service make it an excellent choice for both casual and special occasions. Highly recommended for a genuine Mediterranean experience.
I wanna thank Helmy for making it a great experience for us.

Stopped by Tarbouch for a quick lunch after a client meeting in Arlington. Didn’t realize it is also a hookah bar, but we sat on the non smoking side of the restaurant.
Service was excellent, as was my chicken shawarma with a side salad. Delicious! The shawarma seemed authentic to me, though I’m not an expert.
The food seems to be a blend of Middle Eastern with a Greek influence. My business associate ordered a pepperoni pizza, which had a very thin crust and was just so-so. They also have burgers and other “American” style offerings, but I recommend sticking with the Middle Eastern specialties.
The giant modernized picture of Salvador Dali on the dining room wall was a good conversation piece too.
I’d definitely return.

Is this something you’d be willing to eat? Old chicken served, tastes funny. Whatever is in the plate was in the sandwich btw. If I get the FDA this place will be closed by today.
Zero stars.

We ordered a large chicken shawarma hummus plate that came with puffed pita bread and it was delicious. Falafel mezze plate could have been better. Lamb chop entree was great except that the rice could have been more flavourful.

Fabulous food. I enjoyed the Baba Ghanuj smoked eggplant, tahini, garlic and olive oil with freshly baked pita bread. I also had the Bambi bil Lahmi – okra & lamb in a tomato stew with traditional rice. It was flavored beautifully & reminded me of the meals I had at my childhood Palestinian friend’s house. This place is a Washington jewel!

Had a great time watching FIFA quarter final.
Food is good and fresh. Lamb chops, chicken items are good. Bread is good and fluffy
Hookah is the best … Pan and double apple is the choice. Ask for more Pan and less of double apple.

I had the beef shawarma and the fattoush salad they were both delicious! Definitely my two favorite options in the menu. I also tried the falafel hummus lots of food on the plate! Good service and a nice atmosphere. The partial indoor/outdoor seating has eating and/for hooka options just a heads up! But overall I nice vibe.

The service was absolutely horrific. The shorter female whom brought out my salad was demeaning and impolite. She failed to bring any silverware or plates out, immediately left the salad and ran off. The wait for anyone to serve you is quite tedious as well, at one point, I wasn’t sure if I needed to order from the front of the store. What seemed to be my main server, she was kind, regardless, very curt all around and without any manners. Regardless, I ordered the rest to go as I was running late for an even, still tipped 18% on the entire bill. I wouldn’t recommend coming here if you’re wanting to be treated as a person. The food was good, however, terrible service, not worth it. Great food can be found anywhere. Best of luck & cheers.
