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!“

“Picked up different type of combos for the family and we really enjoyed the food. Owner was pleasant to talk to and packed our bags with fresh bread. I had the chicken/lamb combo and it was delicious. The chickpeas are excellent as well. Would highly recommend and will be back.“

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

“From out of town and came to Ocean8 Hookah Lounge and had an awesome experience! Ended up going multiple times! The hookah was top-tier and the food was fresh. If you're in VA and looking for a great vibe with quality food and smoke, this is the spot!“

“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.“

“Hello everyone! My name is Syed Anwar Hussain, and I'm sharing my experience at the best restaurant in the DC area. Today I went to the Bangladesh Embassy, and after I finished my embassy work, I started searching for a good restaurant in that area. Luckily, GPS found the restaurant. We went with my wife and my son, and we ordered three dishes. First, we ordered two dishes. We tasted the first two dishes; they were very delicious. Then we ordered another one. All three dishes were delicious. I really enjoy the delicious food. I have no words to describe how delicious the food is. I highly recommend this place.“

“We had such a wonderful experience at Kabob Station! My toddler is an extremely picky eater, and ate more here than she has anywhere else we’ve taken her. That alone deserves five stars.

They were also incredibly kind and welcoming. They even gave her a free juice, which was so sweet, and when we had a mess to clean up, one of the employees helped us—even though it absolutely was not his job to do so. That small gesture really stood out to us.

Great food, great service, and genuinely kind people. We will absolutely be back! Highly recommend Kabob Station“

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

“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! ?“

“Based on reviews, we stopped by. The food was cooked fresh and it is delicious. Also, the portions did not disappoint. I encourage, if you're in the Tyson area to stop by to get a delicious meal in take out or eat in. Note seating is tight. Enjoy.“

“Yummy! Yummy! I ordered from DoorDash, but I’m definitely gonna go there in person now as it was amazing 😋“

“Delicious kabobs and wonderful staff! Highly recommend!“

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

“I’ve been to Reston Kabob several times over the years. I will say that their consistency doesn’t disappoint. I most recently ordered a catering order. I had so many people tell me that they loved the food and thanks for making that choice. Needless to say, a catering order will be happening again. More than just the food, the staff were extremely patient over the phone. Sincerely appreciate the service and quality.“

“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.“

“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“

“I had a great experience at Charcoal Chicken. The food was flavorful and fresh, especially the grilled chicken which had a perfect smoky taste. Portions were generous and everything came out hot. Service was friendly and quick, even during busy hours. Definitely a solid spot if you’re craving Pakistani-style BBQ. I’ll be coming back.“

“Was craving middle Eastern food and this cured everything I was craving!! Amazing prices too. The guy at the front (I think his name was Ahmed or Ohmed?) was very friendly and gave great recommendations. Super super helpful and they got a new customer. The spinach was so peak and paired perfectly with the rice. The chickpeas were perfectly seasoned and so so delicious. Ahmed recommended to mix the white and green sauce, it’s a must try. Perfectly cooked and spiced chicken. I never leave reviews but this place blew my mind. Don’t think twice and just go get it.“

“Peter and Saeed were absolutely amazing. We just got done eating there. We have always loved Mama Jooons place, especially at the mall but being able to go to where it all began and being there with the owner was a completely new experience. The food alone is worth the drive that we have made from Richmond up to Washington. the meat is always so soft and everything always taste absolutely amazing from the french fry special sauce to the hummus that is to die for! We will definitely be returning when we come back up here to Washington!“
