This place is brand new, but definitely worth checking out! You can create your own bowl with rice and/or greens and there are plenty of toppings from which to choose. The quality of food is excellent and variety is great. I particularly like the dressing/sauce options.
I attended the Grand Opening, but I'm looking forward to going back as a regular. There are also great sandwich options if you're just looking for soup and a sammie. The veggie sandwich had eggplant and was quite good. I'm not a vegetarian, but I can see that being my sandwich of choice.
Side note: I'm not a coffee drinker, but there's a big selection there if you are.
Overall - great quality food, good portions, and a great value (a bowl will cost you around $9 depending on your meat choices).
UPDATE: All the soups are outstanding, and the Egg and Salmon sandwich for breakfast is excellent!
A University owned Bistro, it features foods from various countries around the world. Global Bistro features Illy coffee, my favorite, and breakfast and lunch menus on the bottom floor of its building on Route 29 in Fairfax County, across the street from Wegman's. I enjoyed a scrambled egg sandwich with smoked salmon and provolone cheese on ciabatta bread. Delicious! And for $4, a real bargain. There were several sandwiches and salads to choose from. My sense is that Global Bistro will only get better in the days to come, and its already a great breakfast and lunch spot in its first two weeks. Periodically, Global Bistro features foods from a different country, such as, Italy, Mexico, Korea, Japan, Turkey, et al. It is extremely friendly, simple in decor, and a place I plan to visit over and over again in the future. Ask for a coffee card; ten coffee purchases and the next on is free. Try it; you'll like it.
No, I don't work for Virginia International University or Global Bistro, nor do I know anyone who works for either, except those I met for the first time on my visit.
Best place ... menu is unique
The bowls they make it’s very unique and you won’t find it anywhere else
Just had the most amazing hamburger! The place is so neat, the workers are friendly people, and the food is amazing. Loved it!
I tried tomato basil soup and chicken sandwich for $7.50 today. I loved it. Very good seasoning in food as well as reasonable price ��
Yummy farm to table greens or grains bowls, plus delicious breakfast items. Everything was so fresh and delicious and reasonably priced.
I had a great experience. I spoke with the owner or one of the owners and she seemed really nice and receptive. The menu selection looks excellent. I look forward to trying more entrees in the future.
Amazing food! The whole experience from start to finish, welcoming you with so friendly and kind. The food can’t get better and the prices are fair for the portion size. Always a great spot to get great food.
A new Syrian restaurant that’s located in the heart of Fairfax city. They have the best chicken shawarma in the entire area. Their fattouch has real pomegranate seeds and their halawet aljeben is very yummy.The restaurant is very clean very spacious. You can order from them as well through Uber Eats if you want. You can host a gathering there or throw a party for your loved ones.
Wonderful family owned restaurant. We loved the chicken shawarma!
Best shawarma in the DMV
Must Try !!
Also the Mixx Grill And Arayes are Delicious 🤤
I tried all the shawarma in Virginia and DC , this is the best .
This Outstanding Syrian Restorant is the only Syrian one in the area. It serves incredibly delicious food. Their fresh Shawarma sandwiches has no competitor in America, and everything we ordered was just perfect. They serve the best Kunafa that you may ever try, ask them about the “Halawa Humsyah” it is a piece of heaven. And the team are very nice and friendly team.
We organized a large event with about 100 people, and this place perfectly managed providing an open buffet with amazing options.
Thank you for the great gob!

An awesome experience. From the personal greeting to the delicious food and organization. This is one of the best Mediterranean restaurants in Fairfax. The buffet was full of delicious options to choose from and was continuously refilled. The desert selection was excellent. All for a reasonable price. Thank You
