There are a lot of mixed reviews on this spot but I decided to try based on the numerous photos submitted and the food looks great. Kabobs are usually priced around the price that this restaurant has priced their menu items at so I believe it is fair. I cannot review for takeout, but for dine-in, there was enough food that I had leftovers and had to ask for a to-go box because I could not finish the rice. The food is flavorful, they add a lot of little touches like a slice of lime, two different sauces for you, and a giant piece of bread. Mango Lassi is $6 but is made fresh. read more

We stopped at this kabob place on the recommendation of a friend that specifically liked their chickpeas. My wife ordered the Super Combo Deluxe (lamb, shami, and chicken kabob platter) and I had the chicken breast kabob, both with a side of chickpeas (of course). Service was great, and the food oustanding! My chicken was tender and tasty, the nan bread freash out of the oven, and the chickpeas taste and creamy, deliscious! I did not try my wife's dish, but she was eating very quietly, which for her is the greatest compliment! Bottom line, our Farfax Kabob experience was great! We loved it! read more

Chicken breast was so flavorful with rice that came with a carrot and raisin topping. Everything was delicious and portion was perfect for the price! I was able to get 2 meals out of my one order. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Service was nice and shop was clean and inviting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Will be back! read more

Extremely disappointed with the value here order for pickup. I paid $20 for a meal that had tiny portions of rice and chickpeas, and the meat portion was even worse. For that price, I expected a full, satisfying plate, but instead, I left feeling like I'd been overcharged for a snack. Definitely not worth the money. read more

As you can see in the picture it literally doesn't even look like a kabob. At first, I thought it was a piece of meat. I have eaten from here a few times before. I had an issue once but I said to myself let me give them another try. Not surprised and disappointed once again. What happened to you guys? Your food used to be so good. I almost paid $18 for this no drink included. The taste was absolutely average. I dont like to put any business down but please improve the taste and flavors of your kabobs. Food was super oily. Maybe it is the rice. Literally looked like a dry meat pieces. I dont think I will be returning. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Their ambience for dine in is not bad at all. Nice seating too[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] but food tastes for the area. Eh! read more

Ate here on a whim after browsing Yelp, and was not disappointed. Food was made extremely fresh, I saw them making everything as I ordered. As such, I had to wait about 15 minutes for my food but that was no big deal. Inside has a decent amount of seating and is very clean. There are no drink machines or water, so you have to buy bottles or cans individually or bring your own drink. I ordered a combo chicken and ground beef kabob, with a side of chickpeas which cost about $18. Both the meats were delicious and had a great flavor. The also seemed to grill onions along with the meats that they piled on top which were also good. The rice was delicious - they top it with shredded carrots and dates that add a really nice tone of sweetness. The chickpeas were a hearty side that was cooked perfectly to almost melt in your mouth. Naan was slightly hard and crumbly, but tasted great. I was not a big fan of either sauces: the green or the white. The green sauce was very runny and only had a bit of a spicy tinge. The white sauce didn't taste like much at all. Luckily, the meat is so flavorful that you don't need the sauces and I mostly used them as dips for my naan. Fairfax kabob is a little hidden, seeing as its on the outskirts of Old Town Fairfax, but it's definitely worth searching out. Delicious food made fresh with reasonable prices. read more

Fantastic kabob, whether you get chicken, lamb, or kefta they are all fantastic. Fresh naan and tons of rice; they really load up your orders. The chickpeas are my favorite side to get with the kabob combos. read more

Went here for lunch because it was recommended by a co-worker. Was not disappointed! Food was delish. Place was immaculate. People were friendly and helpful. Coworker said, "Get extra white sauce, it's delicious you will want to drink it on its own!" Well not sure of drinking it by itself but it was delicious! The hot sauce will make your nose run. Both come on the side so you can use as much or as little as you like. read more

Our first time here, really liked it. We loved the tender, spicy shami kabobs and that the rice was not just plain basmati but pilaf (Palau) with light seasoning and raisins. They serve doogh, yogurt drink too, which we always appreciate with our middle eastern or Persian food. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Good ambience and service, too.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Try it! read more

The take-out portions are so small -- only five pieces of chicken kabob, each slightly larger than an olive. While the rice was tasty, the bread was cold and there was only about three tablespoons of chickpeas. Don't be fooled by the store's photos of dining-in platters -- the tiny take-out boxes are about half the size. The menu prices posted online and for delivery service are several dollars less than the in-store price for the same item. Moreover, the store prices are higher than local competitors whose food, portions, and service are much better. Other recent reviewers offer the same criticisms (see Josue, "I left feeling like I'd been overcharged for a snack. Definitely not worth the money." or Christopher, "If you wanna go somewhere and order a meal that has barely any food and you get overcharged then Fairfax kebab is the perfect place for you. This is a joke of a restaurant." or Amir, "Food was super oily. Maybe it is the rice. Literally looked like a dry meat pieces. I don't think I will be returning." ) Older reviews are somewhat more positive, but recent reviews are worse. Save your money -- there are much better restaurants in Fairfax. read more

I'm sorry to say this, but this is not the best chicken kebab in Fairfax. They have very little food. The taste is OK but it's not the best in the area. read more

Food: definitely a go-to when it comes to kabob take out. They have mango lassi which is always extra points for me. I love their lamb and ground beef combo but their chicken kabob is also great. The quality of meats is consistent, juicy, and well seasoned, making it a great place to be a regular at. The rice has a slight sweetness (maybe a raisin was added while cooking?), which I find compliments the kabobs nicely. Service: order at register and pick up the tray when it's ready. Ambiance: I don't really recommend dining in if you're looking for a pretty place to eat and get pampered at. read more

Man let me start with the choking hazard aka dry ash chicken! Flavor is lacking from this place as well as portion sizes. I've eaten at 20+ local Kabob spots and this one is at the bottom read more

*DISCLAIMER: We catered from this restaurant and did NOT sit-in* Food - 8/10 We decided to cater from here rather than Samshiry, and while it wasn't as "good," it is definitely a great spot if Tyson's seems a little too far for you. The kabob pieces were moist with no shortage of spices (cumin, allspice, nutmeg), and the chickpeas had great flavor and tenderness as well. However, the true standout was the rice. Slightly sweet with caramelized carrots and raisins, it was the perfect compliment/chickpea vehicle one could ask for. Perhaps the only two complaints our family had was the low volume of salad (the tray was approximately two inches deep), and the jalapeños made the kabob pieces borderline-uncomfortably spicy on the pieces they rested. Service - 7.5/10 While the staff was friendly and made it easy to order enough food for the 25 people we were hosting, they told us they would charge one price post-tax, and when we showed up, they said that it was the pre-tax price. Additionally, they said they would provide utensils and plates, but they did not have any ready by the time we arrived. Nevertheless, they tried their best to ensure the food was hot and well-prepared. Ambience - N/A Overall - For catering, this is definitely better flavor-wise than Moby Dick but perhaps not as good as Shamshiry. Additionally, don't expect a ton of free accoutrements, but besides that, a good, local spot. read more

Been here before and forgot to leave a review. The kabob and fresh naan are excellent! Highly recommend.

The food was amazinggg. The staff were super kind and nice, and they even gave my family free canned drinks, which was very kind of them. I would definitely recommend this place! read more

We came in for the first time for dinner due to this place's proximity to the university. The place is clean, and was not very busy when we arrived. We ordered 3 dishes for a party of 4. The dishes each came with a small side dish. For the price paid we feel that the quantity of the meat and rice was very less in each dish, although the large piece of bread made up for it I guess. The food was tasty and the service was quick. read more

The food here is amazing! The chicken was super juicy and the lamb was very flavorful. $17.95 for all this food was a great deal.

Delicious, flavorful, juicy- the best kabobs period. The sauces are outstanding. This will continue to be a staple.

Ordered takeout tonight and it was so good! The gyro sandwich was tender/juicy and the naan was delicious. Naan - chewier than other places and so so good! Mixed kabobs platter was delicious with eggplant side. Meat wasn't dry at all and the sauces really complimented the meats. 10/10 will order again. read more

Approached counter, music from speaker above was loud and young gentleman working there, though polite, was super soft spoken. We could barely hear him. Ordered 2 mixed kabobs to try chicken, lamb, beef and shrimp - which come with two sides. Looked at sides options, ordered hummus and fries, then told those not included. PLEASE UPDATE MENU. Order didn't take too long, but we're disappointed at extremely small portions of meats. YELP PICS ARE VERY MISLEADING. I understand smaller portion on lamb and shrimp, but not chicken and beef ... roughly 5" in length and 1" in width (child portions). All meats were very over seasoned and rice had an overly sweet flavor. Unfortunately, we won't be going back, far better options in area. read more

You'd definitely get your money's worth at Fairfax kabob. My beef and shrimp combo came with a rice, nan bread, and a side. So much I could not finish in one sitting. The meal was cooked well and very flavorful so I really enjoyed it. One thing that could be improved was the service. I originally ordered the chicken and beef combo at first and the cashier kept telling me to pick just one. I was confused since the menu said you would get one of each, but rather than explaining to me, she kept pushing me to just pick one. read more
