This is a great spot for authentic karahi from Pakistan. While I don't know my karahi all that…read morewell (being from India), having been around the DMV area, I have been disappointed with the chicken-version of karahi. Even the recently opened and popular Karahi Boys in Sterling, VA made a somewhat disappointing chicken karahi (although their goat karahi was on-point). Not here though. This place offers three karahi options or styles- makhani/butter, Shinwari, and Butt- with chicken or goat meat. My wife and I picked the chicken Butt karahi and a side of the Lahori chana/chickpeas. The order took around 25 min to fulfill, but it was well worth the wait. The karahi was wonderful with a wonderfully coated thick gravy that clung very well onto the chicken, with the ubiquitousness of warming savory peppery spice in each bite, hiding a slight hint of sour-sweet note that would come at the back end, and made us forget about the disappointing ones we'd eaten previously. The Lahori chana, like many of the chickpea preparations in Northern India and Pakistan, was perfectly spiced with that effervescent note of the baking soda in which the chickpeas were cooked. All in all, a wonderful afternoon meal at a spot that is highly likely to be very frequented by us often. The goat karahi, charga, and rest of their BBQ menu will definitely be on our agenda next. If there was something to rue about, it was the lack of clientele when we went around 1:30-ish pm on a Saturday- not exactly lunch hour but we'd have expected to see more people there (although people were coming in sporadically for pick-up orders). I will highly recommend this place to people to go and try some wonderful Pakistani cuisine and keep the place in business. I, however, will advise against ordering any of the typical North Indian/British Indian staples, like butter chicken or tikka masala even if they're on the menu. Ask the wait staff for recommendations and focus on the Pakistani BBQ and karahi, which is what they're famous for and you'll have a much better experience.

Kabob N Kahari has been one of my go-to spots since the old Silver Spring days, so finally visiting…read morethe Gaithersburg location brought back a lot of memories. This was always one of those places my friends and I would come back to whenever people were back in town visiting after college. The food still hits exactly how I remembered. The goat karahi extra spicy was packed with flavor, rich, saucy, and perfect with fresh garlic naan. The kabobs were juicy, the portions were generous, and the mango lassi balanced everything out perfectly. If you're looking for authentic Pakistani comfort food in the DMV, Kabob N Kahari is easily one of the local staples worth checking out.

There's a nice selection of items in the buffet, including some vegetarian items, chicken and goat. The garden salad actually was excellent - very fresh, with tomatoes, red peppers and carrots. The tandoori chicken was very moist and flavorful. There were a few fried items - although I try to stay away from fried foods, they were very good. The lentil dish was nicely spiced. The naan delivered to the table was "ok," not great. There's even coffee available on the buffet - and it was decent coffee. The price for this buffet was under $20. There are a couple other buffets in Gaithersburg at a higher price point and might have an additional item or two, but this buffet is solid and we'll be back.

Yesterday, Friday, August 28, 2026, we took our guests from New York to Toosso, located at 20921…read moreDavenport Dr., Sterling, VA 20165, for lunch. Our guests were particularly interested in visiting because Tooso is a familiar name to many people from Karachi. Their first impression, however, was less enthusiastic, especially considering the restaurant's size and ambiance. We live in Herndon and have eaten at Tooso several times, although, for some reason, there had been a gap of a few months since our last visit. The restaurant appears to have changed since then. The seating area has been reduced, apparently to make room for office space and employee facilities. The place now has a somewhat rugged, basic appearance, although the atmosphere remains clean and peaceful. It is casual and somewhat dhaba-like rather than polished or formal. The service is largely self-help: customers have to pick up disposable forks, knives, spoons, and paper napkins themselves. For lunch, we ordered bowls of qeema, grilled chicken, chickpeas, bread, and rice. Unfortunately, we felt that both the quality and portion sizes had declined compared with our earlier visits, while the prices had increased. This was disappointing, particularly because we had recommended the restaurant to our guests based on our previous experiences. Tooso continues to benefit from its longstanding reputation as a halal restaurant serving authentic Pakistani-style food. Its location is convenient, with easy access from Route 7, and parking is usually readily available in the adjoining lot. Overall, while Tooso retains the name recognition and reputation that have made it popular among people familiar with Pakistani food, our latest visit did not quite live up to our expectations or to the standard we remembered from previous visits. I would give 3.0 stars based on our last visit. Zafar Iqbal, PhD

I don't know what food other people were served but I clearly didn't receive the same food because…read morethis was not it! The chicken tikka masala was honestly terrible. The sauce was either broken or not cooked long enough because it was separated and watery and runny and the chicken itself was dry and could have been from the prior day.

Six of us went to Clove Restaurant in Sterling for dinner around 8 PM. The restaurant was…read morecompletely empty, which was already concerning. Sadly, we soon found out why. We ordered biryani, karahi chicken, chicken corn soup, and a few other dishes. The food was terrible. The chicken was cold, dry, and tasted like it had been reheated or left over. The chicken corn soup was especially bad, with a strong unpleasant chicken smell that made it hard to eat. It was very embarrassing because we had guests with us. We spent nearly $200, and the quality of the food was unacceptable. A refund would honestly be more appropriate than charging full price for food like this. The restaurant's website looks flashy with nice pictures, but the actual food does not match at all. Even the service felt unprofessional--the waiter did not appear properly dressed. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone. Please avoid it if you can. This was one of the worst dining experiences I've ever had. I don't enjoy leaving negative reviews, but this experience deserves honesty.
