" I was introduced to Dalia's by a friend and I'm so grateful! The falafel was hands down the best I have ever tasted. The texture was phenomenal, crispy yet soft, and the flavors were incredibly rich. I loved that I could choose from a variety of toppings! The outdoor seating was a perfect bonus, providing a lovely atmosphere for dining. However, one downside is the limited indoor seating, so be prepared for takeout if it's very busy. Overall, it’s a gem in Bethesda and I can't wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been meaning to try Dalia's Falafel after hearing so many rave reviews, and I finally made it today! The falafel I had was superb and seasoned so well—definitely authentic! I also appreciated the customization options available. However, I noticed that it can get a bit crowded at lunchtime, which might affect service speed. But the staff remains friendly and helpful regardless. I left feeling very satisfied and will likely return in the near future. " (*Curated Review*)

" From the moment I entered Dalia’s, the friendly staff set the stage for my dining experience. I ordered the falafel wrap, and with each bite, I was reminded why I fell in love with Middle Eastern cuisine. The falafel had a nice crisp outside while being so soft within. They include a generous selection of fresh toppings, making it easy to customize to my liking. Overall, I found the food to be incredibly satisfying and filling. The only downside is that seating is limited, so I’d recommend going during non-peak hours. However, this doesn’t take away from the quality of the food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Located in a quaint area, Dalia's has quickly become one of my favorite spots for lunch. I love trying different falafel sandwiches, and every time I come here, I'm thrilled with the quality. The falafel is seasoned perfectly, and I appreciate the choice of different veggies and sauces. The staff is incredibly helpful in recommending combinations, and they always serve with a smile. I especially loved the outdoor seating on a sunny day; it gives you that perfect charm of Bethesda. The only downside? Sometimes it gets crowded during lunch hours, but that's a good sign of its popularity! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first visit to Dalia's, and I was truly impressed. I ended up getting a falafel sandwich with all the toppings, and each ingredient complemented the next perfectly. The falafel was so fresh and packed with flavor! The service was quite swift, but I did notice a long line during peak hours. The atmosphere is casual yet pleasant, making it a great spot for a quick bite. I will definitely be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’m always on the lookout for great falafel, and Dalia's hit the spot. The atmosphere was relaxed, with a charming outdoor area. I tried the falafel bowl with extra toppings, and it was packed! The falafel was fresh and crispy, and I loved the variety of veggies that came with it. Although I wish there were more sauce options, the tahini was delightful. The prices are very reasonable for the quality you get. I left full and satisfied. Will definitely return regularly! " (*Curated Review*)
