HIGHLY recommend this restaurant. We stopped during a middle school trip with World Strides at the end of our 3rd day (group of 50+ people). This was our best meal of the trip! We were exhausted and hungry. We walked in to pizza on the table ready for us and they brought out hot food trays as well- meat balls, Mac & cheese, huge salads, meat balls and pasta salad. Soda, lemonade and plenty of cold WATER to drink! Food was great and staff friendly. 2 in the party are celiac— they made them a pizza after arrival in a dedicated gluten free oven. They scarfed it down! Staff was also super friendly. Plenty of seating. We all dragged in but left happy and full. The outside area at the shops was fun for the teens to play and be kids again in the wobbly chairs. Check this place out for dinner and large groups as well! We were well accommodated.

The pita bread for appetizers was light and soft. Hummus trio was perfect, especially the spicy hummus. Kibbeh was very filling so maybe don't order it if you plan to order a full entree as well. I especially enjoyed my mouzat (slow cooked lamb leg with spiced rice). It was a lovely meal. Great service, the place is huge so there were many available seats, good food. They have lots of vegetarian and gluten free options. Highly recommended.

The gluten free scones are also decent

I attended the Cherry Blossom Tea this weekend with five friends, and it was pretty nice! Two people in our party had strict dietary restrictions (gluten free and dairy free), and they were perfectly accommodated. I do agree with what a few others have said about the service taking a while (our seating was at 2:30 and we didn’t finish until 4:30, making us a little late for a 4:45 event we were all going to). The tea was lovely though and the desserts + tea sandwiches were surprisingly filling! Not to mention the complementary mimosas were an added bonus. The price was a little high at $110 per person, but I guess it is the Ritz. We had purposefully picked this tea experience because it was supposed to be a little bit less compared to some other cherry blossom teas in the DMV, but it ended up being about the same. The restaurant was also a little bit loud, but overall it was a pretty good experience I’d recommend, especially if you have friends with dietary restrictions.
