    i checked this place out after a friend recommended it. I tried the chicken kabob with lamb rice and chickpeas. The boneless chicken was juicy and seasoned well, rice and chicken peas were the star of the dish, it was all seasoned and cooked well. If you are a lamb lover then you'll enjoy it more than I did. The cook on the lamb was medium at best. It was decent, but I'm not a huge fan of lamb. I also ordered a hummus with pita bread. That was amazing. I recommend that alone if you needed to try something from this place.

    Love Maiwand Grill! We got carry out, with a variety of items including the sweet pumpkin side dish, spinach, and meats. Everything was flavorful and delicious. The order was quickly filled and ready when we came to pick it up. The restaurant lends itself to takeout, but there were a few tables inside of you wanted to eat in.

    This is my favorite takeout in Burtonsville! The chicken kebab platter is so delicious and a healthy option in a sea of fast food!

Even the smallest drop of that crimson heat carries consequences, a warning to the spice-sensitive that the universe is indifferent to your palate. The lamb and chicken tumble together, a duet of salt and smoke, their warmth seeping into the rice beneath like the last rays of a sun that cares nothing for the creatures it feeds. Service is brisk, efficient, friendly--one could almost forget, for a moment, the abyss. And then there is the kulfi, quietly waiting by the left side, a frozen sweetness that feels less like dessert and more like reprieve, a fleeting oasis in the desert of mortal hunger. The counter glows with trays of baklava, squares of sugar and nut stacked in a display that seems eternal yet will vanish one bite at a time. Here, beneath fluorescent light, people grasp at sustenance and find comfort in repetition. The world may be chaos, but your meal here will almost always arrive quickly, hot, and exactly as you hoped.

    From 2011-2017, in the foodie wonderland of Portland, homicide detective Nick Burkhardt, alongside…read morehis partner Hank, investigated crimes in and among the intersecting creature communities of Wesen (pronounced Vessen), whose true forms often only Nick can see, because he is a Grimm or ancestral monster-hunter. But what if, instead of the Douglas fir-dominated city of Portland, those thriving communities of Wesen could be found instead in the small town of Laurel, Maryland, centrally located between the major metropolises of Baltimore and Washington, DC? And what if, as in the show, Nick temporarily lost his Grimm abilities and had to resort to observing what, to the rest of us, looks like human behavior? Nick would have to choose spots that would appeal to multiple communities. One such spot, located at 13600 Baltimore Ave, adjacent to PetSmart, is Jalapeño Fresh Mexican Bistro, which serves memorable Halal Mexican dishes (taco bowls, quesadillas, burritos) in addition to delicious Halal Afghan and Indian fusion entrees (Tandoori Chicken, Lamb Shank or Chops, the Chicken Tikka Club, Veggie Platter, Kofta, and Naan). There, Nick might come across the reformed Blutbad (wolf) Monroe, a clock repairer, who, to the disdain of his family, has shunned red meat and become a vegetarian; the Fuchsbau (fox) Rosalie, whose woge (pronounced vohguh) transformation is much more subtle and who shares a similarly powerful sense of smell; the helpful yet cowardly and often-meddling Eisbiber (ice beaver) Bud; or even one of the darker, more dangerous species--the Hexenbiest (witch-beast), Hundjager (dog-hunter), or Lausenschange (snake). All might find entrees for purchase that appeal to their cloaked or hidden forms. But, if you bring kids, be cautious to avoid the weeping woman seated at a corner table, outwardly showing grief for her lost children. She might just be La Llorona, a specter even a Grimm should be wary of.

    How in the world have I never Yelped this place? I literally order take out from them weekly…read more I'm going to prefix this review that if you're the kind of person who thinks Moby Dick has great, authentic food... you shouldn't come here. Kabob n Karahi uses authentic spices, and what you get is like the difference between chef boyardee and actually going to Italy. This is a very local chain, and the restaurant honestly feels a bit like a high school cafeteria. It's probably not the place to go for a date night. :) This is why I have gotten take out 47191 times and eaten there once. The food is amazing, and going in does have the benefit that they'll often have specials not in the menu. I'm currently polishing off a lamb kabob, and I actually found a black cardamom pod in it. That's such a different flavour than you'll get most places (and despite the name, it's not cardomom). It's rich in sumac and just YUM. Stop in and grab dinner in the way home, for something flavourful, unique, authentic and just plain different.
