I think this branch added more halal items in their menu. But dude is rude I don't need to eat there. I drive 5-10 miles more to take my business else where.

None of the 8-9 Moby Dick branches that i know in the DC metro area are halal. The all serve non halal food. So watch out ! You should never go there.

I had such a wonderful experience with Mazzy! The customer service was truly exceptional. I absolutely love their kabobs, and the appetizer dips are amazing, so fresh and delicious!! Mazzy always greets me with a warm smile and makes sure I am completely satisfied with my order before I leave. She genuinely cares about her customers, which makes the whole experience even better. I 100% recommend this place. Very lovely lady and such a lovely, welcoming environment. I will definitely be coming back!
