A must stop in DC

The best meal I had while in DC. This meal was SO good. It was fresh, not heavy, just so delicious. So many options when ordering. AND the leftovers kept well. I will crave this meal and it will bring me back to visit.

Pros: Gluten free options, Fast/easy ordering

Excellent & quick

Such a delicious lunch; I had the soup of the day with the oyster mushroom pita bread (shawarma). My husband had the cauliflower bowl with the jalapeño cilantro dressing. Highly recommend when you visit DC; we walked here from the mall.

Pros: Delicious!, Fresh breads, Quick service

The best falafel

My family loves this place. Easy order and pickup, though not much space to eat in. Consistently good food and customer service.

Pros: Quick and easy , Tasty! , Gluten free/celiac safe except for the pita

Cons: A little expensive

Excellent counter service all vegan pitas and bowls

My favorite is the Cauliflower Pita --
Oven roasted cauliflower, chopped tomatoes, scallions, creamy jalapeño-cilantro and tahina.

Fresh and flavorful

Had the shawarma bowl without the cabbage and it was very flavorful and so fresh tasting. Food ready immediately. Garlic sauce delicious. Will definitely try a pita sandwich next time as those looked huge.

Pros: Flavorful , Fresh , Fast

The Absolute Best Falafel Sandwich!

Was only in town for a long weekend but managed to make it to this spot twice during my stay—it was THAT good!

Everything we ordered was beyond delicious (although the sweets were somewhat hit or miss)!
- Fried Shouk’n Pita Sandwich (with amazing oyster mushroom schnitzel)
- Fancy Falafel Pita Sandwich (with the BEST falafel ever!!)
- Smashing Potatoes side
- Malabi dessert (slightly strange but overall pleasant)
- Choco-Cardamon Cookie (cardigan was slightly too fragment for my taste)

Can’t wait to go back again and try more of Shouk’s menu!

Unbelievably Good Oyster Mushrooms

Some of the best oyster mushrooms I've had. Sooo flavorful and juicy. I made my own custom bowl, I appreciate that option. Ordering was easy and food came out super fast.

So good!!

Hands down some of the best food I've ever eaten! I got the oyster mushroom schnitzel and fries, and my life is seriously changed. Everything was delicious. My only complaint is the price. I wish it was a little cheaper. But I will definitely be returning to try more!

This is vegan??

*EVERYTHING* here is good *AND* cruelty free. And I've tried pretty much everything.

Every pita sandwich here is delicious!

Recommended:
Shouk burger: savory and hearty
Shwarma: ok, it's not mock shwarma meat but those are some delicious mushrooms with the right texture.
Falafel: Middle-easterners know their falafel. This isn't Cava; that's some bland falafel. This falafel has flavor!

Get the pickled onions. Just do it.

Delicious

Never tried Israeli food before but I was enticed. I got the falafel with an extra side of garlic tahini, my fiancé got the fried oyster mushroom sandwich, and we got a side of fries with Shouk sauce. The food was incredible; some of the best I’ve ever had.

Great casual restaurant

I don't think I'd ever had this type of cuisine before and the spices caught me off guard in terms of their flavour, but it was a good experience. The interiors are cool too!

Great Mediterranean Vegan!

Very small restaurant with quick service and fantastic vegan options! You can order online and through a kiosk, and even in a busy lunch hour, food was put together quick. Great quality of food and different choices of different spicy tahini and vegan mayo options!

Pros: Sandwich or bowl options!, Great quality and flavor!, Outdoor seating available

Cons: Limited choices for indoor seating

Everything was great. Kids loved…the French fries

Nice vegan restaurant near Chinatown DC. Felt a little bit like fast food, but great flavors.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING

I unfortunately didn't take any pictures cause I was too hungry and excited. It was really delicious. I feel like it's hard to find good vegan food in the states but this is an absolute gem. Made my heart happy. My non vegan partner also loved it.

Pros: Fried Oyster mushrooms were seasoned very well!, Loved the red spicy sauce!, ordered online for pick up and it was very quick!

Cons: honestly they low-key ignored me 😆 , staff could be more engaging and acknowledging , Two hours away from me 😭
