Hearing that sentiment I was intrigued because I never thought about a fish gyro. So when it came out the staff asked what would I like one it. I'm not gonna lie the fish was cooked to perfection. Golden brown and looking like your favorite uncle made it. I asked for the works and as he struggled to close the sandwich I had a bit of excitement on my face, because I was ready for my 2009 chipotle wrapped gyro (not sure if they still fill them like that). And the first bite I felt like an influencer who got paid to give there opinion. Making one of those OMG I can't believe this food taste so good faces willing to throw anything around (I threw my napkin across the table for the effect). But seriously the gyro was really good, it was satisfying, light and immensely flavorful. The restaurant was clean and tidy. Its worth a trip if your in the area and your welcome for the gem!

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.

This small, family-owned restaurant offers freshly prepared, well-seasoned South Asian cuisine in a quiet, welcoming setting. The food was flavorful, generously portioned, and made to order. We enjoyed chicken karahi, chapli kabab, chicken seekh kabab, goat curry, and chana, followed by tea. The freshly grilled meats were tender and aromatic, and the house-made breads were warm and delicious. Though the restaurant may appear unassuming from the outside, its food quality makes the visit truly worthwhile. The owner, Manzoor Ahmad, and his staff were warm, attentive, and gracious. We appreciated the pleasant conversation with the owner and the thoughtful gesture of complimentary items. The only drawback was the service time, since most dishes are prepared fresh on a small grill, resulting in a noticeable wait. However, the freshness and taste more than compensated for the delay. Overall, we had an excellent dining experience and would gladly make the relatively long drive again to enjoy their authentic and satisfying cuisine. Zafar Iqbal, PhD, Herndon, VA

I will be honest, my kids did not love the tenders, but I did! The seasoning was not for a picky kid. However, it was the freshest tender with the best seasoning and crunch I think I might have ever had. Not to mention, I will probably dream about the French fries we got as a side. My husband's half chicken was also juicy and well seasoned. My salad was very exciting because I got to choose the type of lettuce it was on, the type of salad, and then the kind of chicken it was topped with. I got the quinoa salad on the farm house blend, and then grilled chicken. I also ended up eating it with the blackened ranch instead of the dressing it came with. For a somewhat fast food, my salad was amazing and well topped with all the ingredients. Along with all the food being amazing, the service was also great. The workers were very accommodating and always making sure we had enough sauces. They were also very friendly with my kids watching from the side for their open kitchen concept. I will definitely be going back to Isaac's.

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.

Good seasoning as well. Be sure to order a side of fresh bread, it comes out piping hot as it is made to order. Soft texture , with starting this, allowing you to scoop the sauce.

I was def skeptical with it being in a shell gas station but saw a few reviews that said it was really good and I saw they had honey biscuits so I said why not. I got the 4 piece jumbo tender box for my lady and I. I first took a bite of the warm fresh honey biscuit and was like, "DAYUM!" That biscuit was soooo good at first bite. It did get a little too sweet the more I ate but it was one of the best biscuits I have had in a very long time! My girl thought it was too sweet for her but she doesn't really like honey. The fries were average nothing out of the ordinary. Wedge fries with a little seasoning built in. Solid 6 or 7 when it comes to fries. Now for the tenders Let me tell you that they are not lying when they say jumbo. We could have split the four piece because I was getting full after one tender! I did eat two and was stuffed. Hey, I have two more for dinner. lol I got the bbq sauce which was tasty. It was more like a hickory bbq with a slight kick. My girl got the krispy sauce which is like a Kane's style sauce. She liked it a lot. All in all I'd give this place a solid 8.5 out of 10. Being in Laurel I would def go back considering it was less than 2 miles from me. Def want that biscuit again and I'm going to try the fried chicken next time.
