Amazing!!! I am visiting and this is my first time trying this type of food. The chickpea soup is delicious. The rice is amazing. The chicken has so much flavor. The bread is delicious and the white and green sauce served with my meal is by far the best sauce I've ever had. I'm so happy I stopped by. Thank you!!!

Counter service & partial Interior

This is a very good small authentic Persian kabob grill. I have been here twice now. I have had their grilled chicken kabob with rice & salad & also their gyro sandwich. Everything was delicious! They have a wonderful savory vinegar green sauce condiment that they offer with their selections. They also have the equivalent of a tzatziki sauce but it does not have a garlicky, cucumber, dill flavor to it. It is much more mild but still good. This little establishment is located on the far end of the Aldi Supermarket strip mall near PartyCo. The interior is very simple: tile floor, orange painted interior with granite 2 top tables throughout with pleather seated chairs. There is an assortment of Persian memorabilia & photos on the walls for decor. The staff are very nice, polite, helpful, kind & gracious. It is tidy & clean. They did not have any discernible music piped over the PA system. They look like they have a good stream of customers during lunch & throughout the day. The prices are quite reasonable & the portions are generous. I REALLY like this place. The food is consistent, the prices are great & the staff are wonderful. I will definitely be adding this to my rotation whenever I am in the Manassas area! DEFINITELY RECOMMENDED! ENJOY!

"6. Beef Kobidah

This was by far the worst experience I have had with a kabob place thus far! I usually order from Grill Kabob and I love their food but tonight was embarrassing! I spent 80 dollars on an order for my family and all of the beef I ordered tasted like lamb. When I called the speak to the restaurant the man was very rude and not helpful!!!! He was talking over me and yelling at me. For someone who has worked in hospitality for 10 years I was highly offended by his behavior. He didn't offer to replace or fix anything he just wanted to argue that what I was tasting wasn't lamb. Nothing was done to gain my satisfaction. Maybe a lack of cleanliness is the issue as a lot of lamb orders are placed. Not to mention the food is tasteless and bland. I will never order from this place again! Maybe your establishment could use a customer service training or two. Happy holidays!

Nice people, nice place, okay foods This is the only kabob place I don't get thirsty afterwards because they don't use MSG in their food. Thank you!! The beef kabob was so-so for me but the chicken kabob was yummy! The naan was pretty good too

Absolutely amazing food. The kabobs are excellent of course but don't miss out on the Qabeli Palaw (pictured) or the mantoo and ashak dumplings.

Thissss is the NEW SPOT! I loved the food! It's non expensive and comes w. a decent portion. ONE meal is enough for two people .. the inside is nicely set up. Clean, tables, lovely design, clean floors, even the restroom smells refreshed! It didn't take the food long at all to cook. It was brought to us. Very polite employees. Thank you!

2. Lamb Chops
Katrina H.

I don't have much experience with Afghan food, so I can't say how this place ranks compared to other Afghan food places. As far as FOOD goes though, this place is pretty freakin' awesome. You get great flavors, great price, and real food! I'm planning on trying every single menu item in the future. So far, I've tried the chicken tikka, the lamb chops, and the beef and chicken kobidah combo--all were delicious! The 2 different kinds of rice had great flavor! My husband is all about the chicken kabob sandwich. I'm just so happy to have found a new go-to place in the area!

First time ordering from this place. Got the Beef Tikka (filet mignon) and the hubby ordered the lamb chops. Everything was really well seasoned and they definitely didn't skimp on the rice. I do wish however that they gave more meat for the price but overall I would order from here again.

Wanted to trying it and trying to reduce the carbs... of course your meal come with tasty rice(2 kinds) and a huge flat bread toasted on a grill... I ate 1/2 of that and the chicken and lamb kabobs were very yummy!

Gyro platter
Abdul R.

Came in after 5 pm, to dine in with the family. We got 3 orders, the wait time was faster than any other places we've been to. The food was sooooo good! Meat perfectly cooked, no meat fats, the rice has an amazing taste plus the chickpeas are the best. The naan was fresh and hot! Their service was good. The interior of the place is good for all ages. The noise level is significantly low! Which is always an A plus. Definetly would come back.

This place is great. I'm here at least 3 times a week. Always clean and always "fully cooked" unlike some previous comments stated.

Mmm I was pleasantly surprised to find a nice halal food restaurant like this in a Manassas strip…read moremall. No shade, Manassas . I'm just saying, who knew ‍? Before going in, I read some Yelp reviews and they were on point. The ambiance is clean, decorated, inviting, with soft lighting. The cashier and cook were quiet but nice. Not shouting or overly excited to chat me up. He was soft spoken, cautiously shy, but nice. Once he realized that I was cool and knew what I wanted, his serious face softened and he opened up. The cook easily smiled. There's no music, just sizzling sounds from the grill. There's a funny message on the bathroom floor the sink needs updating and it needs a nice soap dispenser with quality soap. Other the that, the place is nice. Would be a spot to go on a date. The vibe is grown and sexy, not kiddish like other burger joints. So don't expect crayons on the table and high chairs. Now to the food. I ordered the Chicken Over Rice platter. They plated it quickly. It camed with fresh salad, pita bread, and a few French fries on top . They covered everything with their delicious white sauce. I asked to have the hot sauce on the side bcz I wasn't sure how hot it was. I like spicy but some hot sauces can ruin the dish. Their sauce wasn't too hot, but I'm glad I got it on the side. The chicken was moist, flavorful, well seasoned, marinated, and lightly grilled. Everything was fresh, moist, and piping hot. I could tell the meat was halal bcz it had a fresh chickeny taste. If you know, you know. I ordered extra pita bread. The platter comes with 2 pieces but the extra comes with 4. I'm so full! I took half my platter to go with 3/4 of the extra pita bread. I'll save it for dinner. The platters come with a full tray. If you come for lunch, you'll be stuffed probably sleepy like I am rn. Take the rest home. If you come here starving, you'll leave full and satisfied. I only paid $12 plus $1.50 for extra pita bread. That's a steal in this economy! I hope they don't increase the prices after reading this. I'll be back, inshallah . Thanks for the good lunch and chill energy.

Food, especially fries and onion rings were hot and crispy. The red sauce isn't as spicy as another…read morepopular halal restaurant but it was much more palatable

Our visit was on a Monday but I was pleasantly surprised to see that there were a good number of people eating in the restaurant. A very nice cozy restaurant, clean, generally easy nearby parking.

I thought the portions were generous for the money. The menu overall is pretty large - on my next visit I'll try a few new dishes - definitely worth returning to this neighborhood restaurant!

The flavor was good, I just like it spicy. The sauce for the crispy beef was amazing. The duck with roti I enjoyed. They do sell some of the sauces if you would like to take some home. I definitely will be back.

Came here last night 3/31/26 around 8pm. They were extremely busy. I was impressed with the…read moreservice. I've been eating Popeyes a lot lately and find myself constantly craving the spicy chicken sandwiches. I hadn't been to this location before, but I was impressed. I thought the young man at the front counter was handling everything impressively well. There were a lot of people waiting for orders. I did a mobile order and after a while the app said the order was ready for pickup on the Popeyes app. When I minimized the prompt, it said they were still working on it. I went up just to check if it was ready and the young man immediately went to the back and grabbed two sandwiches and scooped the fries I ordered as a side dish. I was about to remind him about the drinks but before I could complete my first word, he was like and I remember you ordered two drinks let me get you the cups. Then he handed me the bag with the cups and said thank you for your patience, I'm sorry you were waiting a while. He was very polite and calm even with 10 people crowding the counter waiting for their food. Everything was hot and tasted well cooked. I've been experiencing inconsistent quality with my spicy chicken sandwiches across nova Popeyes locations. This one was very good! I like mine actually spicy. Sometimes it seems like other locations are giving me a classic sandwich with spicy mayo. There is so little spice in the actual chicken. This location had properly marinated spicy chicken and it was so good. I also ordered a plain classic chicken sandwich (no toppings) and there was a mess up there, but it was all good. No way with how busy it was I would've expected them to notice that detail, and it wasn't a big deal for me. The classic chicken was well cooked as well, steam coming out when taking a bite. The bathrooms (both male and female) at this location were very clean! I was shocked (in a good way). This was a busy location compared to other ones I've been too that are dead but they somehow manage to have the nastiest bathrooms. I can deal with extra water laying around the sink, or toilet paper on the floor. I've been to Popeyes locations in high income areas that had literal poop all in and around the toilet, walls, and sink. I'm looking at you South Riding! It wasn't just one time either, it was twice. Their whole restaurant smells like poo the second I walked in both times and the people are not friendly or efficient. South Riding Popeyes is dead and they somehow end up having the nastiest bathrooms and I end up waiting over 30 minutes for a chicken sandwich. 10 of those minutes are waiting at the counter by yourself hoping someone will come out from the back to take your order with no other customers in sight. This Popeyes here in Manassas had so many customers and the staff handled themselves well. Even the people in the back were in a jovial mood while they worked as fast as possible. Chicken was disappearing as soon as it was dumped and they just were smiling keeping their spirits lifted as they made more. Good for them. They were so busy and they managed to give great service, food, and keep clean bathrooms.

When I arrived the business did not speak any English they took over 20 minutes to even acknowledge…read moreI was in the store and because most of them predominantly spoke Spanish I had a hard time even telling them what I wanted without using Google Translate. Beyond that the establishment is extremely dirty and I've watched them grab chicken with they're bare hands and stuff it in a box
