Reviews for Bawadi Mediterranean Grill and Sweets Cafe in Falls Church, VA

Food was great 10/10. Everything was fresh & really well seasoned but not salty. We had the Seafood Kabob and Lamb Shank.... Service was a bit slow at first, but when the manager noticed we hadn?t been served he acted quickly. They also offer hookah. Read more

Amazing authentic Mediterranean food, great service and they keep the food on the buffet fresh! There are waiters and waitresses... constantly walking around making sure everyone is okay and they clear the plates off the table quickly when you?re done withthem. Do yourself a favor and get the mint lemonade, it?s delicious! We plan on making time to come eat here again while we?revisiting Virginia! Read more

Discovered this place by coincidence and really happy we did. Highly recommended and definitely will visit again. Me and my... husband went there on a Saturday for late lunch and they had a buffet. The food taste and quality were mesmerizing really!Everything was perfect. For carbs; they had white basmati rice, pasta and bread. They also had chicken maqloobah which is aPalestinian dish of rice, chicken and veggies (it was my favorite),, lamb qedra which is basically lamb meat and rice (it was myhusband?s favorite) There was meat in a delicious sauce and potatoes, molokheya and shish tawook (it was so tender and wellmarinated) For appetizers; they had a full salad bar with delicious hummus, baba ghanoush and others. Spring rolls and taterswere a perfect addition too. The zaatar manousha was dry but still delicious. For desert they had assorted arabic deserts(baklava) and om ali. ** they serve fresh juices, ask the server for them The atmosphere is very relaxing and cozy. The staffwere very nice as well. Loved the covid restrictions they?re following, as you have to wear a mask and gloves whenever you?re atthe buffet. Read more

Awesome food. Must try Mansaf!!!. Fair parking space and very welcoming staff. Our host was the Owners son and he was awesome.... The staff was very accomodating. Ordered Stuffed wine leaves, Kibbeh and Hummus as starters. Tried Mansaf as a main course andkunefe as a desert. Turkish coffee is good so is mint tea. Prices are very fair with big portions. The best part was Mansaf. Thelamb meat was succulent and flavorful. The Jameed was just awesome. you might find the rice as a little undercooked but nothingthat bothers us. The seating arrangement is just fine. We choose to sit outside since we wanted to try the hookah. The place isproperly organized and adequately staffed. The owner shows up from time to time and enquires if things are up to satisfactory.The men's room needs attention. We will be coming back for the food and the experience. My best Mediterranean middle easternrestaurant in DMV area so far in terms of taste. Read more

This buffet was very good. The seating arrangements are made for families. The food was excellent. The lamb rice was... excellent, you can tell that this lamb was not the gyro meat lamb, it was lamb that was cut or sliced from the leg or roast oflamb. The desserts were a nice touch. The pita bread with hummus is first class. I wish the servers were as passionate as theowner. His energy helped the experience. It?s important that the servers should tell guests that, children gets a free treatafter their meal. Had I not talked to the owner saying we travelled from Delaware, we would not have known. It?s alsoimportant to let guest know that a service gratuity is added automatically. Again this falls on the waiting staff. However,that does not take away from the 5 star experience of the food and hospitality of the owner! Read more
