Afghan Restaurants near Ashburn, VA

“I kept seeing this place mentioned on Northern Virginia Foodies facebook page and everyone vouched for it on there, so while being in Ashburn had to give it a try. They were able to make me a spicy chicken kabob side and it was really delicious, cooked fresh to order and it was juicy. Ran me about $9 and the guy running the cashier, was very nice!Although I only tried the chicken kabob which was very good, I imagine everything else would be just as good! Definitely recommend trying this place it“

“Random find after a work meeting, and am so thankful I came in. The food is out of this world. All three of us devoured our meals and couldn't stop raving and wishing Kabobi was down in CVille where we were visiting from. Seriously if you're in the area, this is where you need to be eating!“

“Delicious and full of wonderful Afghan spices, the food is tasty without excess oil. The spinach, chickpeas and falafel are my favorites. I put extra portions in my freezer for those days when I don't have time to cook. I also bought kofta, chicken, and baklava for my husband who was delighted. Visit them at the Mosaic Farmers Market on Sundays, or at the Reston F M on Wednesday afternoon. You are likely to find something to enjoy.“

“My second time here. I live 1.5 hours away but try to eat here when I visit my brother in Reston. Excellent food, generous servings. The bread is so good, fresh with a good chew. Four of us shared 3 platters: chicken, gyro and salmon and still had enough to take home for one more person. Perfectly cooked and flavorful with a side salad, chickpeas ( great for dipping bread into the sauce) brown and white rice. The place is clean, service is friendly.“

“Darya Kabob is a gem! The food is consistently delicious, and the staff is always friendly and welcoming. Every visit feels like dining with family. Highly recommend for anyone craving authentic flavors and warm hospitality. Probably one of the best Kabob restaurants in DMV.“

“Good tender meat, Tasty sauces that come with the platter, and fresh bread with each plate. I ordered the lamb kabob and it was cooked well and paired nicely with the bread and rice. The chick peas were a little different than I expected but not bad! A little oily but well seasoned. Would definitely try their other meats!“

“Solid Kabob place. I love that they give you 2 types of basmati with a kabob platter, and the naan is delicious. The chicken and salmon are my favorites. I always order takeout and have never had any problems with my orders. Thank you Reston Kabob!“

“First time visitor to Red Kabob. The food was very good, especially the chicken was so tender and flavorful. I would consider coming again, but I wouldn't use the bathrooms. The one I was in was disgustingly dirty (which always worries me a bit when the cooks are using the same ones).“

“Consistently good, I did quite a bit of DoorDashing When we were locked down and continue to order from Café Rice and kebab even afterward. My go to is the chicken kebab and I'm hooked on the chickpeas. I wish there was an option to get a bigger salad because I love the salad with my meal. The Gyro was also very good as well as the rice pudding.“

“Note: They use cilantro in the samosa, ground beef, hot sauce, and other things. The steak beef does not have cilantro (that I could taste).Personally, I find this is great for the money. An old friend of mine would describe a place like this as "good trucker food". Is it the best spiced up Indian/Middle Eastern cuisine? Nope. But it is good (my experience) and you get a lot for the money.I got the beef (steak) platter+ 1 samosa, and I got their cilantro-based hot sauce on the side. It's not hot (to me), but has just enough kick to make it not boring.Solid 4 stars.“
