We had occasion to dine here while on a weekend getaway to Baltimore. Staying in Mount Vernon we tried to look for the best of the best to fill our long weekend. Seeing the Helmand come highly rated and never having tried Afghan cuisine before we were intrigued. The restaurant didn't disappoint. At first when we entered it looked like the restaurant wasn't full, but that was deceptive as we merely entered the corridor where single tables are lined up in a row. Around...
Clean, well lit, friendly and knowledgeable servers. Wonderful vegetarian/vegan options. Good food, flavors well balanced, textures smooth, well prepared and beautifully presented. Really good rice!! If I liked cilantro, which was in an optional side dip, I would have loved every single bite. Great stuffed baklava and goatcheesecake dessert. Wine and beer menu too.
We loved the cozy atmosphere, comforting and delicious food, and kind, welcoming staff members. We enjoyed the Aushak and pumpkin for apps, Kabouli pallow and lamb lawand for entrees, and afghani ice cream for dessert. Already looking forward to our next visit! Thank you!!
