One of the best halal food places I have ever been. A lot of choices of authentic Mediterranean foods here. I had a mix kabob platter and loved it. Definitely will come again to try their lamb mansaf next time.

The staff and service was great. I have no complaints about that at all. The food was good, not great, but good. I’m Indian… I’ve had Indian food all over the US, UK and India just for context. Their prices on the other hand… $31.99 for butter chicken is daylight robbery. Bollywood Masala… just down the street… charges $16.95 and for a much bigger serving. Another Indian restaurant I really like in Alexandria charges $16.99, and that’s more upscale than Kabob Kingdom. The kabobs.. $17.99 and there was a rather skinny drumstick and a wing, that’s it. Like I said… the staff were great, and the service too… but we won’t be back.

We are not huge middle east or indian food buffs but we enjoy a good curry and Butter chicken. This place rocks the food was great the portions were good and we left with a smile on our face. Fantastic service and meal. Most recomended.

Had lunch here on a rainy Saturday. Oh the flavors! They make everything, down to the little onion crispies on the rice. The house soup with naan would make a great lunch by itself. We also had a sampler appetizer plate, butter chicken, tandoori chicken and a dessert. Staff is very helpful with suggestions. The food was fantastic! Yes, it is a bit more expensive, but for freshly cooked middle eastern food, worth every penny.

Definitely recommend! My husband and I had a great meal and a wonderful experience. After not being able to travel the past two years, the flavors and hospitality made us feel like we were on holiday again. We had the hummus plate, the chicken curry, butter chicken and the lamb korma. Everything was delicious!

Two for two on great meals, cooked from scratch. The rice is phenomenal (you can see the cinnamon and cloves the use to make it). Kabobs have a respectable char from the grill, but are still tender. (Bone In Chicken) Curry is spicy, but not overpowering (I'd rank it "jalapeno" level). Corn chowder could be at home in any crab shack in SoMD (I say that as a positive). Pricey for sure, but well worth it.

Stellar! The people were very kind and were incredibly happy to see our satisfaction and joy. The food was fantastic. We ordered the king mackerel and the lamb chops and i have never had fish as good as that from the way it was prepared. The owner explained the dishes as they came out and again, was very friendly and hospitable. Amazing experience and I will certainly recommend it to my friends who are in search for a fancy restaurant meal.

This is the sort of place Southern Maryland needs more of - too many Panda Expresses and Olive Garden's around here. The Kabob has a REAL international flair, personalized table service, and crafted foods. I was surprised here - you'd have to travel to DC or Baltimore to find anything even remotely of this sort. It's a clever amalgam of Persian, Indian, and Mediterranean dishes. We ordered the King Mackerel, and the Lamb Chops. Began with a wonderful appetizer of mushroom and chick pea soup, and ended with a spritely dessert of donut balls swimming in honey, walnuts and pistachios. Great experience. Recommend to all, and wish the owner the best.

I've seen some reviews concerned about the cost of the food here. Sure, you might pay for for food that is 100% Halal, but you won't regret it. This place is worth every penny!The spicing across the board was perfect and the hummus was the best I've had since I've been in the ME. We are already looking forward to our next visit so we can sample more of the menu.The owner was friendly, approachable, and the restaurant was very clean and had wonderful atmosphere.Highly recommended, one of the best spots in SOMD.
Amazing service! Cash was our server and was especially charming and friendly. If he offers you the tea....take the tea. Its the best tea I've ever had. The kabobs were amazing...although a bit over priced (only reason it's 4 stars and not 5). I would definitely eat there again.

Our first time there we had the chicken and lamb kabob meals. We were so pleased and looked forward to returning. Today we had the platter and had the opportunity to try the multiple dishes, all were delicious! The service was fantastic and checked in on us often.
Mark Morrison
Oh man that is quality food. Hummus was fresh and delicious. The lamb was tender and flavorful. Kamran was friendly. He recommended the platter which he customized for us. Get dessert! Rice pudding.

Place was fantastic! I got the Chicken Karaihi and was very satisfied. Food had great flavor, Naan was delicious, rice was perfect, the Chicken was deliciously seasoned and moist. The staff is very attentive, kind and welcomes you in with a smile. Down on Three Notch with plenty of food choices, but I’ll take a small dine-in restaurant with unique and fresh flavors any day of the week. The place has dessert, it’s own special blend of tea and a menu of specials I am dying to explore. Will come again and definitely worth the time for a dine-in meal.

This place is awesome! These guys are so friendly and kind. We had the buttered chicken, lamb, rice, 19/19 VS, Goat 19 beans. It was so good. We also tried the special tea, it was served with honey poured on the side. It was amazing. We we’re asked if we wanted to try a new dessert. Which was equally as awesome! Kheer which is a sweet rice pudding with almonds and raisins was great along with ghulah jamen (which I am probably misspelling) was equally as awesome. Definitely come check this place out, you won’t be disappointed!
