“We had never tried Afghani food before, and I am so glad we did. The staff was so friendly and helpful with any questions we had. They recommended the Mini Taste of Arocostia for our first time. Everything was FANTASTIC!!! The food was cooked perfectly. The service was great! We never had to ask to have our beverages filled up, because they were already on top of it before we had to ask. They packed all our leftovers into boxes for us for our way home. We will definitely be going back!“

“First time here today. The food was amazing! Service was excellent! ❤ I love Afghan food.“

“I’m unfamiliar with most Afghan food so I don’t know the names but I LOVE IT!

My wife says this place is a good replacement for Faryab in Bethesda.

I could eat the aushak every night. The pumpkin dish was outstanding. This carryout is definitely on the power rotation.

I went back for the 4th time in 10 days and got the most amazing pumpkin dish“

“This place took the number one spot for best meat in DC. We got the Afghani Platter which was like a full 5 course meap that was totally worth it and filled us up and more. Their lamb is so incredibly tender and just falls off the bone so well. incredibly perfectly cooked steak as well. Just 10/10 no notes. Would come here again!“

“My husband and I I came here for a date night LAST Saturday. We had a wonderful time! We had the Dal, buranee bademjan, and mantoo classic/ mantoo shrimp dumplings. All of these appetizers were delicious. We ordered the lamb shank for our dinner. We enjoyed the lamb but it was not as good as the appetizers we ate. We cannot wait to go back to Lapis!“

“wonderful gem of a spot! delicious cocktails and food. extremely knowledgeable staff“

“I can’t say enough good things about this place! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcome — the staff greeted me with a smile and were attentive without being overbearing. The atmosphere is cozy yet lively, perfect for both a casual lunch or a nice dinner out.

The food was amazing — every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. My meal came out hot and perfectly cooked, and the portions were generous without feeling over the top. I especially recommend trying their signature dish — it’s worth the trip alone!

Service was quick, drinks stayed full, and the prices were very reasonable for the quality you get. You can tell the team here really cares about making every guest feel taken care of.

I’ll definitely be coming back — and bringing friends!“

“Bonjon Rumi is honestly the most authentic Afghan food I’ve had in the DMV area. Everything from the flavor of the kebabs to the perfectly cooked rice reminded me of home. You can really taste the love and care that goes into every dish.

What made it even more special was how welcoming everyone was. The owners actually came by our table to greet us personally, which meant a lot. It felt warm and genuine, just like being back home with family.

I’m so grateful to have found this place. Definitely coming back again soon!“

“My husband and I are from out of town. once we tried Maiwand Grill, we make sure to stop by almost everytime we cone to Baltimore. Everything we have had from here is top quality and delicious.“

“Delicious, tender, succulent 🍖 cooked fresh for you. It may take a bit to wait, but trust me, the wait will be worth it. 🤤

Atmosphere is hip and rizzy, service is with a smile. The 🎶 that ________ to ___ here is Teri Meri by Andreea Bostanica. 😉🙏🫶

“Grill kabob has one of the best kabobs in town. The juiciness and flavors makes me want to come back for more. The owner is a very kind man and helped me decide which dish to order as I was having trouble to decide. I highly recommend this place!“

“Awesome chicken kabob platter! Chicken was super tender and well seasoned, super tasty. One of the best I've had. Great staff and great atmosphere.

Prices are CHEAPER in person than what's on Google. Go enjoy this place!“

“I was in town for 6 days and ended up eating here 4 times. Excellent value and flavor. I had the: 1) $10 daily special, which was a chicken bowl. 2) $15 gyro and fries. 3) $30 lamb chops plate which is prolly enough to feed 2 people.

I was impressed with how fresh the food was and the quality and qtty of the protein, especially for its afforbility. The staff is very friendly and the main guy remembered me after just my first visit. I look forward to coming back some day.

If you like spicy, be sure to get a side of their jalapeno sauce.“
