Afghan Restaurants near Reston, VA

“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!“

“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!“

The staff was great, the Afghan tea after dinner was wonderful with pastries. I recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants to try Afghanistan food.

Nice work👍

“Hidden gem: Afghan Carrayee! It reminds me of karahi. I got the lamb. It was grilled separately, cut, and added to fried tomatoes, peppers, onions, and spices with plenty of fragrant oil. Served with a huge piece of tandoori bread to soak up all the flavorful sauce. It also comes with a cool yogurt sauce and spicy green sauce. I've also had the Quabili Palau: Skillfully-seasoned lamb under a heap of spiced brown rice, topped with carrot strips, raisins and meat sauce. The portion sizes are massive. I don't know how they got all that food in the box. I ate it for days. My son liked the chicken kabob, also came with a healthy portion of two different kinds of rice. The chickpeas and eggplant are also very good! The staff/owners are very friendly. The meat is cooked when ordered, so if you are in a hurry order ahead. If you order there and wait they might just give you a free bowl of lentil soup to eat while you wait! If you are on the go try the wraps served with fries or choose a side. They also have wraps without a side as a special for $7.50. It's not on the website or menu, but a good deal.“

“We had been meaning to try the Kabobi by Helmand restaurant for a while, but not gotten around to it. Last weekend gave a perfect chance for a quick Takeaway.

We went for the traditional Kabuli pulao with lamb which was chock full of flavor. We also tried the Mantu dumplings which were in a flavorful and delicate sauce. My wife’s personal favorite was the chicken Lawand which had a very nice sauce we had not tried before. The spinach was OK, could have had a bit more flavor.

Take away order was easily placed. The environment inside was very nice and we will definitely come for a dining experience in the future.“

“Yummy chicken and pita bowl! The store was hygienic.“

“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!“

“Delicious food, tasty bread.“

“Food is always great and the staff is friendly!“

“Hands down the best kabob spot in Fairfax. All of the dishes here are exceptional and the service I got when I was there was also great. Would recommend this place to anyone visiting Northern Virginia! The white sauce and green sauce was exactly what I was looking for to add that extra flavor for my kabobs! If you are looking for high quality kabobs with great portions for a fair price go to grill kabob xpress!“

“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“
