Mazza Kitchen

Mazza Kitchen catered an event for us and everything was fantastic. The food was flavorful and delicious, with vegetarian and meat options and amazing sauces. We particularly loved the eggplant dish they created. Zafar was accommodating in designing the menu, and a real pleasure to work with. He was very responsive to messages, and the delivery was prompt. Highly recommended.

AMAZING. I’m vegetarian, and they converted me.

Absolutely delicious. I'm Greek, so naturally I'm a lamb connoisseur. The food prep took around 5 minutes, and can easily be topped off with a drink for an extra dollar. Their ingredients are fresh, and their sauces are tasty. It's simple, quick, and affordable. Arguably one the best on the go decision for a bite if you're in the Rosslyn area.

I absolutely love the food truck culture at Ballston. Although I have my go-to spots, I was feeling adventurous the other day so I took a stroll to see what other options I had that day. I did yelp reviews on quite a few and stopped by the Mazza Kitchen truck, which is right outside of the Cosi. I perused the menu and .... BAM! He had me at Lamb shank.

The dish is called the Kabuli Palao, a special of the week, and wow.... The lamb shank ($10) was tender and super flavorful. The basmati rice was really tasty and cooked just right, not dry or undercooked. On the menu he describes it as " Perhaps the best rice known to mankind..." , which I thought was funny and appreciated the humor. The dish comes with a salad and cooked spinach. The spinach was subtly flavored and I wished it packed a punch like the lamb and rice, but it was good. The ingredients are of higher quality than some of the other food trucks.

The owner, seems to take great pride in this dish, always asking how the dish looks after he drizzles the food with their special white and green sauce, which is like a yogurt and jalapeno sauce. The sauces were also delicious.

I will be coming back because the food is great but also because they have a rewards program, which I think it is an intelligent move because it creates loyalty. The deal is "Buy 5 meals, get one free".

The only downside for me was the wait was a little long, but it was worth the wait.

You can also pay for the food with a credit card. I might have missed the sign, but didn't know that until the person after me paid with a credit card. Darn.

Overall, great food and I will be back for more.
