Afghan Restaurants near Reston, VA

“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.“

“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!“

“Went here with 4 people and everyone loved their food. We started with the appetizer assortment, which was delicious. Then we all got lamb, but in different dishes. Lamb is definitely their menu focus. The flavor combos were different and interesting and they all worked well. Nice wine list by the bottle or glass. We'll definitely go back“

“Delicious kabob and vegetarian dishes! Fast and friendly service. And all at a reasonable cost! Outdoor seating! Amazing family-friendly dinner experience. Everyone in our family was happy - from kids to grandparents. Make sure to order the kadu and the bread.“

“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!“

“One of the few things I continually thank some divine creator for is the thriving and competitive kabob scene that exists within the NOVA area. I've been fortunate enough to try styles influenced by the Persian, Shojan, Iranian, Afghan, and Egyptian communities that exist here. I have consistently eaten at Kabob Corner on Main St a ridiculous amount of times, cause I really do think they are the best at what they do. They are dearly hospitable to all customers and proudly stand by the food they freshly make. Their kubideh is moist with that flame-grilled char present in all great kabobs, their chicken ridiculously juicy with a gorgeous rich deep orange, their rice is copious and seasoned, and their Afghani nan fresh out of the tandoor. If you can find room in your stomach, dip the nan in a side of chickpeas or their bournee baunjan (it's this great fried eggplant sauce). Their mantu is also fantastic, but I often find myself too full to finish an entire plate. Great food, great service, great everything.“

“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.“

“Wonderful, polite, friendly staff who don’t pester you but who will share a smile or a laugh.The food is delicious, I can’t wait to try more dishes (so far the falafel platter, lamb, chicken, coffees, chai tea (wow), and the saffron ice cream is a real treat!The decor is lovely and the seating comfortable.There was plenty of parking.“

The friendly and attentive staff further enhance the overall enjoyment, ensuring exceptional service with a welcoming smile. With such amazing food and top-notch service, it's no wonder that you are already planning your return visit to Mazar Kabob to savor more of their fantastic cuisine.“

“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.“

“I would love to give 10 stars for the food the service everything is amazing to whomever is looking for a middle eastern food I will advise this place they have the best shawarma ever .They have the best buffet ever as wellWe deeply appreciate your hospitality the owner is amazing and all the stuff“

“amazing store with a lovely staff!! i go there all the time and get the #1 combo (steak and chicken kabob) food is always delicious, i recommend the white sauce with your meal, it'll really make you wanna come back for more the next day. i tell everyone how great of a restaurant this is, and they all agree. try it out for sure!“

“Best bang for your buck lunch in the area. Lunch special comes with kabob of your choice on rice with a side salad and side of your choice, sauce and soda for a little less than $11. Afghan style food. Super quick too. Beef kabudeh lunch special in the picture but I subbed my rice for extra salad ?“

“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.“

“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!“

“I've tried this place dine-in and takeout. I was pleased in both experiences. The portions are very good and everything had flavorful. I tried their gyro platter, loaded fries, fried chicken sandwich, and chapali kabob burger. I highly recommend this place for a quick bite, or work lunch.“

“This spot is great, we took a step away from our usual spot and got some different platters like the beef and Lamb Kabob (basically Gyro meat) chicken kabob and and chicken tenders platter with fries for my son. We really enjoyed it. The fresh falafel was great and so was the hummus. I think the price is a little higher than other kabob places but it was good. I would go back. I think the portions could be a little bigger but they had great variety of options and their fries were great. We came during Ramadan do there was a buffet that we didn't know about and was likely only there for Ramadan. My wife also got the baklava and enjoyed it. We had a couple so the meal came to about 65 for 4 people, with out the coupon it would've been $85.“

“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.“
