DCG - District Chicken and Gyro

DCG (District Chicken and Gyro) is hands down the best place for a meat-over-rice platter in the DC and DMV area. The portions are incredibly generous, and the value for money is unbeatable. For just $10–$12, you get a massive platter loaded with rice, flavorful meat, and fresh salad. Everything is well seasoned, satisfying, and consistently delicious. It’s the kind of meal that fills you up without hurting your wallet. Overall, DCG is a go-to spot if you’re craving great halal-style platters with huge portions at an extremely economical price. Highly recommended!

Heard a lot of hype about DCG. The mixed platter was delicious and the sauce hit the spot. It was pretty pricey and the establishment could definitely be much cleaner.

Can’t believe it’s been this long. I remember DCG from when it was in Georgetown and there was always a line. I found myself in Tysons Corner after the theater and couldn’t wait to have some of this. It’s truly been too long. The food was good. I was at the front of the line. There’s places to sit and eat. The service was efficient. Would return!

The quality of food is coming down there by day the chicken, the rice, and how they clean the veggies and the cleaning environment and all that The owner really has to do something about it. The quality of the rise has come down very bad.

I love this place. The only reason I am giving 1 star is because of less or neither sauces on online orders. Not one time, not two times, almost everytime. Damn it, without the sauces, everything tastes like shit. For God Sake, stop accepting online orders then.

Delicious. Steady line was a great sign. Great pricing. Service was a little reminiscent of Seinfeld’s soup nazi (“Next!”, no smiles). Front of house was cozy. Where you order (at the back) lacks any deliberate atmosphere… kind of a temporary-became-forever vibe. But who cares… it was delicious and I’d go back if in the area.

Don’t judge the food by its place/kitchen because the food which they serve is amazing. Best chicken over rice in NOVA. No doubt the place is small the kitchen is not big and clean but their food is amazing. They serve protein over rice or in pita or wrap. You will find white red green sauce for dressing. They have falafel options too for vegans. It’s not even expensive it’s just around 10 bucks in Tyson’s corner. You should try it once if you are passing by because it is worth it

Best chicken and rice EVER! I was very impressed with the flavour of the food, the chicken was spiced to perfection and soft and the rice was delicately flavored but delicious. The salad was fresher and crispy, more than I expect from a halal chicken place. Another review mentioned the white sauce being a must try and I concur, also the red sauce was spicy but flavorful (not just heat). Location is a no frills modest small restaurant but the food definitely more than makes up for it. All in all - I think I have found my go to quick and easy lunch spot.
