“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!“

“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!“

“Have enjoyed the delicious dishes for several years. Whenever son from CA and son from TN come to visit they always want to return to Charcoal Kabob again. We miss seeing your family!“

“Food is awesome, wish i could give 7 star.. Authentic taste - so different than other equivalent eateries, the lamb is so tendered and cooked to perfection. Naan breads are very soft yet fluffy. Definitely must go place.
I felt that while the portion given worth the price, the portion is too much for a single person unless you are super hungry (like I was). Otherwise, the plate can be shared by two.
Another suggestion would be to make the plate and the price 2/3rd to make it attractive.
Avoid sitting next to the restroom, probably need some better ventilation.“

“Delicious food, tasty bread.“

“This used to be our favorite spot! My family and I came here all the time because their chicken tikka was absolutely the best. We even had friends who would drive all the way from Maryland just to have it! Sadly, they’ve recently changed the recipe, and it just doesn’t taste the same anymore. It’s really disappointing, and unfortunately, I don’t think we’ll be coming back. :(“

“Delicious! Great food and great service. Very clean. I’m looking forward to trying more menu items.“

“everything inc. shisha :)“

“Nothing has changed. I enjoy coming to this Grill Kabob. This restaurant is located in Herndon, VA, off of Elden Street. The owner is always attentive and friendly, so welcoming that you'd think you've known each other for years. When I visit this restaurant, I usually order the kobeeda Chicken combo platter. It's one of their signature dishes. The portions or platter is enough for two people easily, and the two different rice combinations are a great tasting variety in this platter. The food is cooked over a flaming grill, slowly and meticulously, and it's fun to watch them prepare this great tasting combo platter. However, if you want to tantalize your taste buds; ask for the spicy sauce, I think it's for the pita bread for dipping. Yet, admittedly, it adds so much flavor to the meats (that is) if you let it soak in a little. But that's just my humble opinion. Like I said, the pita bread that is oven baked and so soft that I use it to dip into the spicy sauce as well. The pita bread compliments the meal. I can't imagine anyone nor enjoy this particular dish. So if you have a hankering for Mediterranean food, definitely visit Grill Kabob because you won't be disappointed.“

“All good .Nice staff. Great bread“

“Friendly & efficient service! Great tasting food, check it out!“
