Helmand Kabobi - Afghan Restaurant

Good food! Different and authentic afghan flavors- seriously some of the best since I was there. Ambiance a little bright but nice little bar with great happy hour! I would call it “The Afghani” and put some curtains up and dim lights ;) but flavors - chef kiss!!!!

I’m currently a guest at the Marriott across the street. My daughter is a student at Hopkins and I’m visiting her for a couple weeks. The attendant at the hotel suggested it when I asked what was good because I was hungry. The restaurant was beautiful. I placed an order to go … the gentleman couldn’t tell me what ingredients was in the food. He barely spoke English. I asked him was it nuts in anything he couldn’t answer. I asked was the desserts popular , he just looked at me. lol I ordered the chicken and rice with the carrots and glazed raisins. I also ordered the hummus.

I had dinner here with my father here and we tried Afghan food for the first time—it was absolutely delicious and full of flavor! Loved the spinach sabzy and the cauliflower and chickpea entrées. The naan is unique, more like a soft bread, served with butter, and pairs perfectly with the dishes. The restaurant gets very busy during lunchtime, especially around noon, but the staff remains attentive and makes an effort to ask about allergies. The portion sizes are shareable, and the quality of food is excellent for the price. They also offer great vegetarian options. Overall, a wonderful dining experience—I’ll definitely be back!

I drive 2 hours from VA to visit this place. This is one of the best place in town, the food quality 100% plus. Thank you for very nice service and hospitality.

Food was very very good, I called for a pick up order and it was ready in 15 minutes. Chicken kebab and beef seek kebab with Pallaw very fresh and flavorful. I’m not a fan of turnips, but overall the sautéed seasonal vegetable mix was very good! Sweet staff at front desk, and prices very affordable!
