This is by far the best Shawarma place in the DMV! So sad to see them temporarily closed but can't wait for them to come back and come back stronger! I only knew about them when I was trying to find good food for my wonderful father's memorial service. They have done an amazing job, best quality and even when I didn't care about the price their prices happened to be among the best and very reasonable! Very nice presentation and on time for the catering. Chicken Shawarma Wrap 10/10 Beef Shawarma Wrap 10/10 Hawawshi ( Egyptian baladi bread stuffed with spiced minced beef) also 10/10 Egyptian Salad 10/10 !! Egyptian stuffed grape leaves ( made in house! The owners mom makes it herself!!) 20/10!!! Falafel ( Falafel bites, I didn't get the sandwiches) 10/10 ! Generous amount of tasty Tahini for the beef Shawarma and Hawawshi Generous amount of Garlic Sauce for the chicken Shawarma! Thank you Shady for everything, can't wait to see you come back!

One of the most authentic spots for a really good shawarma! The beef/lamb shawarma is definitely my favorite among their offerings. They have all the standard options for bowls and wraps and for those with a sweet tooth. Currently they are running their operations out of a ghost kitchen concept with a few other restaurants and I really want them to thrive as they are in their early stages of development. Parking situation is a bit tricky since it is very limited and almost hidden at the moment behind a gas station. read more

I had high hopes for this place. We ordered. Chicken shawarma, beef lamb wrap and Dubai crepe. Unfortunately the food was extremely salty. This shawarma place is in a community kitchen so there is no sitting place. You pick up the food and go. For the cost of the food it isn't worth standing outside and eating. And the wait times!! We were waiting for the food for 40 mins. And when we got it, it was room temp, so the food had been sitting out for a while. From the pictures the food looks very good but unfortunately did not live up to the hype idk whyyy it has 5 star reviews. I was very exciting for the crepe unfortunately does not look appealing at all! The pistachio stopping is dyed green! read more

My Hawawshi sandwich meal and chicken shawarma were incredible and tasted authentic. Food is reasonably priced and menu items are diverse, even offering Vegetarian options. Can't wait to come back and try more stuff off the menu read more

The chicken was incredibly flavorful, juicy, and well-seasoned. The wrap had that authentic taste and texture that instantly reminded me of the shawarma you'd get back home. Every bite was satisfying and brought back great memories. Easily one of the best shawarmas I've had in a long time read more

It was a beautiful Saturday morning. The birds were chirping, my coffee was brewing, and I only had one thought on my mind... Today is a great day for Shawarma. I immediately got dressed and rushed to my car to go to the nearest restaurant. I found Project Shawarma, approximately 1.5 miles from my house, so I decided to give it a try. Once I walked into Project Shawarma, I immediately knew I was in good hands. I was met with the sweet smell of lamb with a hint of baba ganosh as I glazed over the menu with my mouth starting to salivate while reading over my options. After going over the menu, I decided to try the lamb Shawarma wrap with fries, stuffed grape leaves, and baklava. After receiving my food which seemed within minutes of ordering, I decided to sit down at a nearby table outside and enjoy the beautiful day. I decided to try the lamb first and that first bite was incredible... I've had lamb from all over the world but this was the best lamb I've ever had. It was that good. The fries were crispy and not too salty, while the grape leaves just melted in my mouth. I had to make some room for the baklava and man it was delicious. This place was a 10/10 from the food all the way down to the establishment. Thank you Project Shawarma for changing my life! read more
