    I'm not wasting any time getting right to the point.... This food is 5 STARS!!! Everything from the overall seasoning, cooking methods, portions, freshness ... it is possibly the BEST food I've had since living in Reston and it's just a very small humble establishment that needs more publicity! I had the mixed kabob platter with the salmon kabob and chicken kabob and BAAAABBBYYY that salmon was EVERYTHING! So were the side of chickpeas that it came with .... Oh and the FRESH PITA BREAD .... like I need to know who is in the back cooking because I want to kiss them! The portions are also MASSIVE and I immediately asked for a to go box because I knew there was no way I could finish the food, so, I literally had 2 meals for the price of 1 which makes the pricing worth it. And the cashier is super sweet and brings your meal to your table too! I will absolutely be back because this place is truly GOLD!

    Grill kabob has locations in alot of mall food courts here in nova but this location stands out from the rest because its a brick and mortar location which has seating available and the food and extra items available here is just better above the rest. They have a stocked fridge of drinks including jarritos and mango lassi (weird right? Since they have afghan food but they do offer a mix of desi/middle eastern snacks like samosas and hummus. We always go for their chicken kabob and beef kobeedah platter which is enough to share amongst two people. It comes with two kinds of rice (white and seasoned), salad, side of your choice and freshly baked afghan bread. Their white sauce is crack and a must when eating with. I tried their mango lassi this time and it was pretty good. This is a clean location with friendly quick service and that's why this location is my fave amongst the other mall grill kabobs.

    Food was delicious and the portions are quite large. Service was friendly and the wait was short. No issues on my first visit.

    Their grilled chicken kabob and the rice is not bad. The portion is pretty big too. The naan bread is thin and crispy.

I'm a local customer and live just a minute away, so I've visited more than once. I came in for lunch today with my wife and our 1.5-year-old son. After placing our order and sitting down, the server loudly yelled from behind the counter for us to come get our water. It felt uncomfortable and unprofessional, especially with a young child. When I placed my order, I asked for extra white sauce, and I asked again when the food came out. Both times, the request was ignored. I also mentioned that we hadn't received our drinks, but instead of addressing it, the server again yelled for us to get the drinks ourselves from the cooler. The food itself was okay, but the bread was very poor--hard and barely edible. I even called the restaurant later in the evening to share my concerns, but was told the server was off at that time. Overall, very disappointing experience, mainly due to the customer service. I hope this feedback is taken seriously and leads to improvement.

Interesting art on the wall and nice bathroom. Park on the parking garage below or on the side street/lot nearby. Make sure if you don't finish your lamb and ask to put it in a takeaway box go specify that you want your lamb scraps. Learn from me because my waiter tossed all my lamb and just boxed up the rice likely thinking I was done with them. Big bummer since I was looking forward to my leftovers but oh well.

The pumpkin dumplings and pan fried veggie filled dumplings were great as well. I thought my salmon wrap and the chickpea side was ok. Interesting flavors for sure. As for the service, there was always someone filling up our waters and our waiter was very nice checking in every now and then. The only downside of the experience is at the end when the waiter was boxing up all the food for us. Very sweet that they do this but when boxing up my partners food, they only boxed up the rice and they got rid of the lamb that he was looking forward to eating more of later. So that was kind of a disappointment for us. I think if we go again, we would request to box our food ourselves since I'm not sure why they decided to get rid of all of his lamb.

Ambiance wasn't fancy but was homey and cozy. Really nice portions and plenty of veg options. The seasoned rice options were lovely and my husband really enjoyed his tea. Appetizer was OK but the mains were superb and we were so full we couldn't finish. I got the seib, which was a main dish that primarily featured apples. I hadn't seen that before and I was skeptical before eating but wanted to try something different and it was incredible. My only pro tip is that when you order a veg main it's a lot of one thing, whereas meat mains come with a veg. Next time I will order the veggie combo option to get more diversity. Normally I write longer reviews but in this case I think I will let the food photos speak for themselves.
