Have eaten literally hundreds of shawarmas all over the world. Love them and recognize like any other food there is room for artistic license and personal flair. That said, these were the worst shawarmas (one beef, one chicken) we've ever been served by a couple of light years. Meat dry, insufficient amount of sauce, awful tasting sauce, pressed in a panini press until the poor quality bread was basically a pita chip, all served up by two utterly disinterested young ladies that very obviously wanted to be anywhere but behind the counter. I understand COVID was tough on the restaurant sector but even considering that the place was awful. Look elsewhere. read more

Another wonderful Yelp discovery!! After a very, I repeat VERY filling dinner I deemed it necessary to find dessert at 10:30pm on a Sunday night. The open now filter and high reviews guided me down back alleys to Muncheez. First, their is a food truck outside, a sign of success! Inside, the art is on point! Each wall is covered with beautiful, vibrant murals. Second, the staff were entirely welcoming. I walked in clueless having never been to a Lebanese restaurant. They were chatty, answered all our questions and weren't creeped out as we stared at everything they were doing in awe! If I had any room in my belly I would have tried a shawarma but realistically I didn't even have room for the crepe I was about to destroy Ready? A Nutella Crepe, with strawberries and bananas. Omg omg. I don't care if it was $9. It was absolutely delicious. We watched the guy make it in his little crepe station and I snapped approx 20 pictures (not weird at all.) My date and I sat and ate every last bite of that crepe. I got to the point where a button on my blouse popped, but i couldn't, and wouldn't stop. Needless to say, Muncheez is awesome, and when I return to DC I intend to ravage through that enticing menu! read more

I don't know why the reviews for this place is off the chain - but, perhaps it's because I haven't tried their acclaimed crepes. I can only speak for their falafel sandwich and roasted turkey flatbread, which were a tad below standard. My friend and I came to this barren-store on a late afternoon, and were served promptly. Top40 hits were blaring in the background, and I couldn't even speak to my friend at a decent volume. Anyway, I think this store is like one of those wanna-be-hipster food places, but obviously went rogue... it gives off this meretricious vibe so I don't think I'll be back here anytime soon.... read more

**Taste of Georgetown 2011** This made my second time trying a Falafel. (The first was Amsterdam Falafelshop in Adams Morgan). The wrap was nice and warm and the Falafel was good and crisp. HOWEVER...it was very dry. The toppings (not sure of the name, but it reminded me of a dry cole slaw, but good) made up for it. I'd HAVE to have something to spread or dip the next time. For now, I'll stick with Amsterdam Falafelshop. read more

If your walking around the Georgetown area and want a quick snack that is of the best quality then stop into Muncheez. This was a snack we all got before we had a cruise and it was a great choice. They have several choices as far as sandwiches, wraps and crepes go. I had the Cinnamon &sugar crepe and the four cheese crepe. I always get a savory and sweet crepe, it is the best of both worlds. The four cheese was very good, a very nice blend that goes well with the amazing dough they use. Then the sugar & cinnamon was a very flavorful and was made perfect. I would describe it as a churro type flavor maybe? Of coarse we all shared our flavors, I did try the nutella which was awesome and part of a beef shawarma that was yummy. All items where huge in portions and great on price. Service is great and food comes out pretty fast for how busy they are. read more

Got in late. They were open. What a treat!!!! Curly fries showed up still crispy, after a 3 mile Uber delivery. Shawarmas were perfect and fresh tasting! Almost made the same order again for seconds. read more

I tried out Muncheez Mania using a living social. Ordered the Nutella crepe with bananas. It was okay given the light coating of powder sugar, nutella, yet even amount of banana and crepe. But I really enjoyed the MINT LEMONADE! Out of this world. Fresh and not too sweet. A refreshing drink indeed. read more

After you try Muncheez, you will always have cravings for it. Before I tried their amazing chicken shawarma I always passed by their building. My husband and I were at #TasteofGeorgetown and we took a bite of a mini chicken shawarma. We look at each other like "oh my goodness, this is heaven." Since then I've been a regular customer. Their secret is that each recipe is made to order and with love by always friendly and chatty Chef Haidar Charaf. I recently tried for the first time a falafel and it was very good. They also have some #mezze such as spinach sfihas, mini za'atar, and kibbe which I all recommend. Just writing this review makes me want to go and eat their chicken shawarma today, it's addictive! read more

The food here is amazing. The meat is always fresh as is the pita. I love the kibbeh my only complaint is I wish they were bigger. My fries are always fresh although they never give enough ketchup without asking at least twice. My main problem with this restaurant is once again the customer service it leaves something to be desired. I have the most problems when I go in at night time. The language barrier is quite large and always an issue. I can never use my loyalty card at this location during the night I just don't think he understands what I'm asking for (even though ask about our loyalty program is written on the walls and the cash register) on more than one occasion I've been told to just save my receipt and come back which is beyond frustrating the manager can never seem to help at these times and my shawarma order is almost always wrong. Despite this I will keep coming back because I love the food. read more

When a Lebanese friend of mine recommended Muncheez, he described it as "a 4-star rating compared to authentic Lebanese food", and he was pretty spot on. Conveniently located in the heart of Georgetown's shopping district, Muncheez has really tasty food at decent prices. I stopped by Muncheez to pick up a beef shawarma wrap, a falafel wrap, and tabbouleh salad to go (which ended up being more than enough food for two). There was some counter seating and a few small tables in the back, but most people were definitely doing takeout. The employees were fairly friendly and the order was ready in no time. My first bite of the shawarma was disappointingly tough and chewy, but it quickly went uphill from there. My remaining bites were tender and well-marinated, with a lovely acidic crunch from the sumac onions and some accents of what tasted like thai basil(?). I was watching them make the food out of the corner of my eye, and saw that the beef was freshly sliced off of the giant round of skewered meat on the spit. The falafel was tasty - they were not the best I've ever had, but did have a nice balance of crunch with a tender interior, were served hot, and tasted like they had been freshly fried. The pitas had a good chew, and I appreciated how well-wrapped the fillings were - nothing worse than getting food to go and having it leak and drip everywhere. I also really enjoyed the tabbouleh, which is huge. It's basically a whole portion in itself. The ingredients were fresh and the accompanying dressing had a lovely bright and vinegary taste. Our total came out to ~$24, and we both got a good amount of leftovers out of it. Definitely one of the more reasonably priced food options in Georgetown, and it's good to know they're open for late night bites too. read more

Don't go healthy here - it's not as good but the bread is amazing either way. Instead, I suggest going for the cheesesteak - mmmmm, and some curly fries cuz who doesn't want some curly fries? The bathroom inside is weeee tiny but there's this fun lil area in the back that's like a lounge with black lights. Small hole in the wall but very delicious. Oh, and on a side note, I saw one of the cooks mess up a pizza crust he was making and then he threw it away - so sad, I would have eaten it! read more

Not sure why there's so many bad reviews but I absolutely love this place. The people are so kind and the food is the best! They'll even allow you to switch out what ever ingredients you don't like.The quality of the food is definitely worth the money. You can even see them make the food and their fruits and veggies look so organized and fresh too! I would come here every day if I could. Ill definitely bring my friends, they have nice tables to sit at and even have hooks on them if we had come here after school.Definitely doesn't hurt to try , freaking love it. read more

When I saw this place from the outside, I hesitated to go inside but I am sure glad I did! This place is a mix of Mediterranean and American. We tried a few things while we were there. The crepes which were fantastically amazing, the Mediterranean pizza which was probably a 7-8/10 (not bad as far as pizzas go), beef shawarmania which was very well prepared, and the veggie box which had a mix of items including hummus and baba gannoug. While this is not a place with ambiance for romance, the food was great at a good price. I would definitely try this place again! read more

Four starts are def for the Nutella Crepes. Most delish sweet thing ever. Hubby gets strawberry banana and I get plain! Chicken shwarma platter was O-k. Dry, little unflavored and not presented cute at all. It was a great snack but could have had more taste for being $12+ . Hope to go back to try pizza and gyro! Def going back for the crepes :) read more

I've had Muncheez three times now and here is what I've got to say: Curly Fries? AMAZING dip them in the garlic whip sauce and BAM best "treat yourself" snack in Georgetown. The Cauliflower Sandwich? Wrapped in a fluffy pita/naan wrap? AMAZING. Such a creative way to eat a Shawarma style lunch. Their bowls? Just ok. When I want a salad bowl I want lots of veggie and lettuce. I felt that there was too much hummus and it made for a very soggy salad. So for now I'll be ordering the sandwich wraps on repeat. Also important to share is that both meat eaters and vegetarians alike will be satisfied with yummy Shawarma meats and falafel or cauliflower options! Fast service and a delicious array of sauces! I would just go with pitas, wraps or sandwiches rather than the bowls. read more

This place had shitty service and they messed up the order and didn't even apologize after notifying them would never spend my money here and the food that they gave me wasn't even good dried chicken with garlic sauce that didn't taste like garlic and fries that were cold read more

good guys at the register and they have nice vegan options. the bread isn't vegan but everything else they tell us is vegan is vegan. yummy food too! read more

This small place makes the best Shawarma and Falafel sandwiches around. It's more of a take out. There are few seats inside, but it's kinda tight. It is worth going to. Prices are reasonable considering the location of the place and the food quality. read more

These guys don't know what a shawarma is. Dry, tasteless piece of something with fries inside. Would not recommend. Stay away.

I usually ate before at Muncheez but my last time was the worst. I took chicken shawarma and the chicken wasn't marinated at all. I was eating dry meat, and it had barely undergone cooking.. even the garlic sauce was hardly felt and it was usually had abundant with a strong smell and test. It was overall a bad experience except I paid more for less. read more

I used to like this place and usually would've written positive reviews, but times have changed. The quality of the shawarma has declined significantly while prices have gone up. The meat was barely cooked, the bread was dry, and the garlic paste was too thin. This is all pales in comparison to the same Muncheez less than a year ago. Hopefully they will turn things around in the future, but paying more for less is irrational. read more

Ordered 2 chicken shawerma's. Taste wasn't bad but they completely skimped on chicken, which made it a huge rip off for the price. I noticed the thin shaving of chicken as they were preparing and thought it must be the norm but was glad another customer after me told the owner that he actually wanted chicken in his chicken shawarma "this time" compared to his order the day prior. Taste was good but complete rip off with minuscule meat added in. Won't be returning. read more

Nothing on the menu misses. Shawarmas? Fire. Pizza? Fire. The service is very homey and they make the food with love. Definitely recommend!

This place is so convenient and deeeelish. I was looking for something open past 9, which is hard to find nowadays, and this place plugged. The food was made quick and was so good. read more

Decided to try out this spot on a whim. Ordered the Chicken Shawarma platter. The portion size was plenty as it came with rice, hummus, chicken, lettuce/tomatoes, and a pita wrap. The flavors were all pretty great except for the chicken. The chicken was pretty dry and lacked seasoning. When I order again, I will definitely try the beef shawarma instead. read more

Chicken & cheese sandwich is still the best fresh sandwich in the whole DMV area. Try it and you will thank me later.

From the exterior of the restaurant, I could tell it had an artsy vibe. On the inside, there were plenty of wall murals that transformed the small room. I ordered the chicken shawarma which tasted similar to a gyro. It had fries in it but I couldn't really taste it inside the wrap. I'd have to come back for the curly fries! read more

My friend and I went here for food after drinking at a bar on Water street. We decided to go here since it was a short walk up Wisconsin and we needed food to sober us up. We shared the shawarma and it was pretty good, but the food portions are smaller than what is served at Moby Dick's. Anyhow, if you need a late night snack, Muncheez is one of the places to go. read more

After some shopping around Georgetown, I decided to grab a quick bite at Muncheez. I was lucky that I just missed the lunch rush, so I had time to read the entire menu before making a decision. The vibe of the restaurant is hip, but not exactly welcoming. It's a quick grab and go, in my opinion. After reading rave reviews, I decided to go with the beef shawarma. The sandwich was delicious! Served on a pita, the shawarma is filled with pickles, tomatoes, tahini, and a onion and parsley mix. It was made to order, and it tasted incredibly fresh. My only complaint is that it was smaller than I imagined when I placed my order. Overall, the taste was great! Great little place to grab a quick bite! Heads up, they deliver and do take out! read more

Food is really salty, lacks any real flavor and skimpy portions. I paid $22 for basically a salad. The spicy sauce was mild at best. I think they must cater to a certain demographic that can't handle heat or complex flavors because the food was really disappointing. This is not good Shawarma. read more

Really great spot with authentic Lebanese food. I had the chicken shawarma pita and the mint lemonade. I was very satisfied with the price and quality. They had a little bit of indoor seating and a bigger outdoor space. The vibe was really cool. You could watch them make your order over the counter and put the pitas in and out of the big fire oven. There were also rotating meats with pretty onion and pepper flowers on top. Overall, great service. read more

The first time I went to Muncheez, my friend and I went to the back to sit at one of the tables. Unfortunately, it smelled like bathroom back there. Kind of weird and not that appetizing, so we just changed seats to the counter. Problem solved, right? I got the same thing both times I have been: the ham and cheese crepe and a cup for water ($5.01 with tax). I've been served quickly (though eating at off-times both times...) and the crepe is delicious!! I checked into Muncheez and posted it to Twitter when I did. One of my friends then responded to that with, " I LOVE THAT PLACE!!!! THE FLAT BREAD AND FRIES ARE TO DIE FOR!!! Jealous!!" So there ya go! Worth a try, especially if you're trying to find something quick! read more

Picked up some sandwiches/wraps from here on Easter sunday, and went down to the water front park to eat. We ordered two falefal sandwiches, and a veg sandwich. Food was very fresh... and not just the parts between the bread... but they bake their own wraps, as we ordered the food. I mean, who does that???! definitely worth a try! read more

I've passed this place on foot before - it's sandwiched in a rowhouse between a Hashi Sushi and a spices shop. To be honest, it's never enticed me inside despite the rather unusual name. So why'd I visit today? Well, I signed up for the so-called "Belly Rewards" a while ago at Lerner fitness (providing the URL here - https://bellycard.com/ - b/c prior to some time ago, I'd never heard of it myself) and today, I received an email that I could get a free wrap or free crepes here sometime in the next month. I was a little surprised to have qualified for a reward when I'd never frequented this place before and b/c I've only used the "Belly Rewards" thing twice. But a freebie is a freebie so I gave this place a visit. It doesn't have a huge selection of food it's adequate. I got the tuna salad wrap - hard to mess up - and it was nice. The tuna salad includes corn but corn really doesn't have too much flavor so it didn't stand out much at all. The wrap was supposed to come with a pickle, which it did not, but I don't like pickles much away so I didn't complain. The seating area isn't very large - there are two picnic-bench like tables and the other seating is a counter area with unusual-looking red-framed plastic stools. The bathroom is on the other side of a mural and pretty narrow and tiny, Georgetown-style, but very clean. They do also have crepes but there isn't a huge selection - the only savory crepe they serve is ham and cheese. If you want a sweet one, you can add strawberry or banana. So if it's crepes you want, I'd go to Crepeaway instead, which serves only crepes and has a pretty nice selection of both savory and sweet crepes. All in all, the tuna salad wrap was OK but I wouldn't necessarily make a special trip back to this place unless I was already in the area and hungry for a quick and inexpensive bite. read more

I was a regular customer here and I always order beef Shwarma. The last three times, the meat was really dry and the pita smelled kinda bad. I believe they took people loyalty for granted.:( Because i love this place, the first time this happened I said maybe it is only this time. Then again and the third time made me write this review. I would never go back here "third time is the charm" I wont lie, six months ago this was my favorite shwarma place in the DMV area. i guess I will have to look for another restaurant. read more

The business seems to do well despite the pandemic. First time trying this restaurant and unfortunately the Shawarma had a burnt wrap, very dry chicken, soggy fries and lacked flavor. Assume curly fries are frozen out of a bag? There are better options for tourists and locals looking for a quick takeout meal, including the establishments next door: 90 Second Pizza and Reren. read more

This is a small curbside eatery with a counter to place your order and a few places to sit and dine. The interior leaves much to be desired it was, small and had very low lighting, (not romantic candle light but just like dark for no apparent reason.) There was also this really loud colored paint on the walls that looked sort of like a scene from space?? It was confusing to say the least. I tried the chicken Shawarma, it was my first time trying this particular dish and my first thought was that it was a bit dry, I requested more of the garlic sauce and it made it better but it wasn't anything that I wanted to write home about. The reviews that I read from some of the locals seemed to rave about this dish (sort of a chicken wrap type of thing) but I didn't really understand what the hype was about. It was an ok quick bite to hold me over while shopping and preparing for an actual meal later in the day. The staff was friendly and the price point seemed fair but I wouldn't go out of my way to return. read more

The meat pie was pretty expensive $1.65. The crepe wasn't bad sugar butter cinnamon, and strawberries for $1 extra. I didn't order a gyro or anything because I was looking for a late night snack. They were still open at 10:30PM when I got in there. The things here are very overpriced, I asked the cashier guy and he said its all Georgetown prices. They have a lot of different things I wanted to try, will be back for another late night munchie craving. read more
