Kebab near Fairfax, VA

“I’ve been to a couple of Afghan Kabob restaurants but this one was truly really great and tasty. The food was delicious and the customer service was the best. I highly recommend trying out Fairfax Kabob!“

“Flame Kabob is a gem of an Afghan restaurant, offering some of the best authentic cuisine in the Fairfax area. The food is nothing short of amazing, with perfectly spiced kebabs, flavorful rice dishes, and freshly baked naan that truly transport you to Afghanistan. Every bite is a testament to the care and skill of the chefs.

The ambiance is warm and inviting, with a simple yet elegant décor that makes it a comfortable spot for family dinners or casual meet-ups. The customer service is outstanding—friendly, attentive, and always ready to ensure you have a great experience.

If you're looking for delicious Afghan food with a cozy atmosphere and excellent service, Flame Kabob at 13037 U.S. 50 Service Rd is a must-visit. Highly recommended!“

“Best all you can eat during Ramadan! Authentic Syrian and Lebanese food for the serious foodie! Best kibbe! Well worth my taste buds!“

“I love this spot! Their fresh bread is to die for, everything is so flavorful, and you can tell a lot of heart goes into the food. We ordered a two kabob meals, hummos, and mantu, and extra bread (of course). The owner is super kind and personally knows his regular customers. 11/10 would recommend and hoping to get to regular status soon!“

“My wife's birthday. She wanted lamb curry, I wanted goat.
They both tasted great and were really soft. The goat curry had bones as a FYI, but that is to be expected for those who haven't had it.
The curry came with rice and chickpeas, both great.
The naan looked to be made fresh and both were larger than the paper plates they came out on.
Also ordered masa fries, which were crispy and great, and a samosa which came with 2.
Will go again.“

“Exceptional Service. Culinary Excellence. Our dining experience at JOON was extraordinary, made even better by the exceptional service from our server, Yacine. His thoughtful recommendations, warm demeanor, and perfectly timed attentiveness made for an unforgettable evening. Even as the restaurant got busier, Yacine maintained his focus on us— a warm and welcoming touch that elevated the entire experience. Thank you! As fans of Persian cuisine and frequent shoppers at Yekta Market in Rockville— having recently tried our hand at making Persian dishes like Fesenjan at home— coupled with all of the culinary accolades— we had high expectations for JOON. It not only met but exceeded them. Mast-o Musir, yogurt dish with Persian dried shallot and rose petal, was exceptional— more elevated and nuanced than any we’ve had. The mushroom Khoresht stew with white truffle was another highlight, offering perfectly balanced flavors something hard to do with white truffles and a satisfying richness, complemented by the perfectly crunchy Tahdig, iconic golden rice crust. The braised lamb shoulder which Yacine suggested was the undeniable highlight of the meal I which each dish was excellent. Tender and flavorful, it was paired beautifully with texture. It’s a signature dish that rivals the best we’ve ever had, bringing to mind the legendary Bo Ssam pork shoulder from David Chang’s Momofuku— bold, unforgettable, and expertly prepared. The Gormeh Sabzi, short rib stew with its delicious sour depth, was excellent but couldn’t quite match the lamb’s showstopping brilliance. Two very minor points. While the food and service are exceptional, the main dining room lighting would benefit from dimming. A water filtration water system could make a big difference as well. JOON has firmly secured its place as a must-visit dining destination for us. We can’t wait to return and explore more of the menu.“

“Delicious food and super thoughtful staff
I ordered a mint and Turkish coffee to start with the intention of ordering lamb. When the sheep came, I was surprised in an interesting way by the presentation of the dish. The sheep is butter, soft, and cooked in the literal sense and looks exactly the same as it did in the menu, bones and all.“

“This unassuming and hole in the wall restaurant is the real deal and what a treat! Had friendly service and deliciously authentic super FRESH food, made to order from scratch. I could see the cook in the kitchen and she ran a very clean and organized kitchen. Think homecooking and you'll be happy with what you get. I enjoyed every bite, and the corn tortillas are as good as it gets. I'm looking forward to eating my leftovers tomorrow! ?“

“I had a fantastic experience at Grill Kabob! The food is consistently top-notch, with the chicken and lamb combo being my favorite. The flavors are rich, and the ingredients are clearly of high quality. My only critique is that the cashier didn't seem particularly happy.“

“I stopped by Taste of Istanbul this afternoon for the first time. For the most part it was really good. I ordered a potato pide, 2 doner kebab, mixed meze, and pistachio baklava. Everything was delicious except for the”baklava”, which turned out to be two greasy dough cylinders. No phyllo, no honey, no pistachio filling. I was disappointed that I wasted $7.00 for inedible dough I ended up throwing in the garbage. Get the kebabs, stay away from their version of baklava.“

“soujouk is one of the best sandwiches i ever ate at this restaurant highly recomanded“

“Reston Kabob is hands down the best spot in the area for authentic Afghan food! The kabobs are perfectly seasoned and grilled to perfection, and the portions are generous. The rice is flavorful, and the fresh naan completes the meal. The staff is friendly and welcoming, and the service is fast, even during busy hours. Whether you’re dining in or taking out, the quality is always consistent. Highly recommend the chicken kabob and the lamb combo – you won’t be disappointed! A true gem in Reston!“

“Amazing food and service! definitely will be going back!!“

“Delicious kabobs and wonderful staff! Highly recommend!“

“So delicious! I am on the road most of the time as a real estate agent and always try to find new spots to eat at. The food is so flavorful, the staff is awesome, and I will be back next time I am selling homes in the area!“

“Great potential for the falafel platter, with some missteps that keep it from being five stars.First, the good:- sauces were excellent (toum, shut)- dips were great (hummus, labneh, and a chickpea stew)- bread (shrak) was great- fries were great (served with cilantro)- onion/parsley garnish was very good but needed to be more of it- falafel was good- salata was pretty goodHere’s what can be improved:- the Persian style grilled tomato and grilled onion make no sense as a side for a falafel platter… it should either be served with tabbouleh or chopped raw tomatoes and onion, either of which add freshness and cut through the heavy sauces- speaking of tabbouleh, it was supposed to come with some but didn’t- the fries, falafel and chickpea stew were a little too salty- personal preference: I don’t like pickled beets in general very much, I didn’t like these pickled beets in particular very much, and I strongly feel that pickled cucumbers are superior on a falafelThe good parts about the platter were great. But, the actual falafel wrap was a little off, because it lacked fresh veggies. The sauce, the bread will keep me coming back, but I hope the owners take note of this feedback

Vegetarian options: Falafel platter seems to be vegetarian friendly“

“Best biryani in virginia 😍😍“

“I've been coming to eat at Famous Kabob for years and every experience has been awesome! The food is always delicious and fresh (I am obsessed with the bread), and the owner is a great guy, has always been super nice when I stop by. The lunch special (11am-3pm I believe) is such a good deal too! I highly recommend, one of my favorite places to eat.“
