My favorite part of mom's is the fruits and veggies--you can absolutely taste the difference. Red bell peppers are sweeter, scallions are thicker, greens are more plump. Although I don't often buy meat from moms--except for my annual Thanksgiving turkey--but the local meats and sausage are top quality. The Mom's brand items are also strong options--the coffee is cheap and from a local roaster and the milk (is not cheap but) is very tasty. I love that they have free coffee daily; I always grab a half cup when shopping on a weekend. Although not organic, the beer selection is super, well curated, not overwhelming options, with a range of styles. Investing in food is investing in one's health, the community, and earth and I don't mind paying a bit more for all of that, and the flavor boost. Go to your MOM's!

They don't seem to carry everything I normally get at the Arlington or other locations in the DMV, but they don't seem to have a decent array of items. The employees are really nice and willing to help. I had only been offered help once in the wellness area when the lady was trying to see if I needed anything since I was searching for my precious frozen dog food that they don't carry unfortunately. All in all this is a great market that carries local brands and caters to dietary needs!! I will definitely be back.

The Whole Foods in Arlington has quickly become my go-to for quick grocery runs during the workday…read more The location is perfectly convenient to my office -- I can walk there in under 5 minutes, grab what I need, and be back before my next meeting. One of my favorite things about this store is how many self-checkout kiosks they have. It makes quick shopping trips a breeze, especially when I just need to pick up lunch or a snack. Even during busy times, I never have to wait long. Bonus points for their plant selection -- I recently picked up the cutest little desk plant that's now happily living next to my laptop, making my workspace brighter (and maybe making me a little more productive). Friendly staff, clean store, and all the quality you expect from Whole Foods. Highly recommend for both your grocery staples and little office pick-me-ups!

Selections, there are many: Bibimbap (BBB, much Americanized version, yes), sushi & udon, salad bar, hot bar, cold bar and beverage stations. And items are reasonable priced given its location but it isn't cheap either. If you are in DC on culinary quest, nope, this is not your venue. But if you are wandering hungry in National Mall before 3 pm - with a federal issued ID and not carrying anything that would get you kicked out from routine security clearance - give it a try.

I ordered the strawberry shortcake smoothie which was pretty solid, 330 cals and 20 grams of whey protein. At the end of the day, it's a protein smoothie so it's gonna taste like protein powder. That said, for a protein smoothie, it was pretty flavorful! But if you're ordering this expecting a sweet "regular" smoothie, you'll probably be disappointed. There are some other snacks and drinks at the register and a couple of seats, but this is definitely more of a to-go spot.

She knew all about the conditions that I was concerned with and was able to offer several alternatives using natural herbs and supplements, to attain my goals. I sampled the sea moss gel, which was actually good tasting because they add real fruit. I invested in some essential oils, body, butters, and hair preparations made from top grade natural ingredients. Each product smells delicious! I am looking forward to excellent results. As Yvette said, it never hurts to reduce the toxic load of body products that comes from putting synthetics on our skin instead of natural, edible products. We parted with hugs and smiles. After all, our skin eats (absorbs)! I will visit again and I highly recommend, especially due to the warm, welcoming ambience that this shop has created. By the way, they are so honest that if they don't carry a particular supplement, they will send you to someone who does carry it. Awesome!

It's perfect for my sister and I, who are vegetarians, and it's within walking distance of the main strip of Anacostia. Change has to start somewhere and this store is just the beginning.

As per the motto we really felt as if we are at home. Dr Vyas is a good psychologist. She asks short pointed questions thereby she reads minds, temperament and nature of patients and treat accordingly. She spends enough time to the satisfaction of patients without worrying about queue for collecting smallest details about symptoms. For my dry and itchy skin, which did not resolve by allopathic medicines, could bring under control in first session and after 3 to 4 sessions I was cured completely. This was a really a surprise to me. Her skills measuring body health by pointing fingers at wrist of the patient is awesome like a cardiac electrophysiologists.
