    Baklava
    Maya D.

    A late night or last minute go-to. I'm not ever mad at Shah's. We just always get the platter with lamb, rice, onions, lettuce, hummus, black beans, and the white, green, and red sauces. Green is the best to me but all are needed. I prefer the sauces on the side or tell them to put half as much because sometimes the platters are drenched in sauce. The employees are always nice. The baklava was mid....as expected...sorry! Wouldn't get again.

    This one has the white sauce added.

    Well, I've been SUPER BUSY, but to tint I had to get this review done! I am a creature of habit. if I like a place, I will eat there almost daily. I am in looooove with Shah's rice and chicken. It comes with 4 sauces (bbq, white, green, hot). I order light white sauce or white sauce on the side and green and hot sauces on the side. Disclaimer: the hot sauce is HOOOOT!!! The chicken and rice, oh and salad, are oh so fresh. The meal that I get is buy 1 get one, so I have been honestly ordering twice per week for 3 weeks. I have one for lunch then the other the next day. Order again on Wednesday and so on. Zero complaints! The packaging is nice and neat. I only order online, and I've only tried the same meal.

    The receipt that shows the order- the order incomplete

    I placed the order via door dash and I selected to have white & hot sauce on the an 3 line green sauce on the bowl. I got zero sauce and the food is not good very bland. I waisted $20 and my mood is ruined.

    I ordered here from DoorDash. Delivery was quick and food was really good. Chicken over rice: chicken was very flavorful, tender, great flavors mixed with the rice and veggies. You can also choose how many lines of white and red sauce you want. Humus and pita: humus seems fresh like they just made it. A bit grittier/chunky compared to store bought but I didn't mind since it was fresh.

    Chicken Over Rice Combo
    Tia C.

    I was a little skeptical at first. The manager allowed us to sample the meat before purchasing. I wasn't fond of the lamb it was the meat texture of the meat you put on a gyro, seasoned tho just did not want lamb in that format. The chicken was seasoned nicely which is what I ate. It was very tasty with the sauce provided. I will definitely visit again.

    I loved how clean and welcoming this place was upon entering! We needed more halal options and this was perfect! Customer service was amazing as soon as we came in, staff was so happy and loving! We got the combo platter but honestly there's soooo many options here, I can't wait to try their wrap and wings next time!

    By far the best halal spot I've been to. The food was excellent. This place is great for a quick bite.

    (2pieces) Fish Over Rice Platter
    Priya M.

    Went here a few times already because the food is so good and the prices are not too high. I got the combo platter (chicken and lamb) it was delicious. It's served over brown basmati rice and your choice of toppings, I got veggies and the white and green sauces which were I think tzatziki sauce and coriander sauce. Also, another time I tried the fish over rice platter which are two fried pieces of fish. The staff is very kind and gives good service. The restaurant is small and clean and has a few tables to eat inside.

    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.

The decor is nice and modern, a bit sparse, but that makes it cleaner looking. It has a nice tone about it. My one complaint is the price, but given how much you get for it... and considering how everything is getting more expensive... it is what it is. It's still a bargain since I almost always get two meals out of one. If you are gluten free, I have great news! Aside from the bread and mac (and cheese), everything is GF! This is what they told us. They fry the tenders in a GF breading and everything else is safe. Again, always double check! If you want the sandwich options, they can put the ingredients in a bowl with fries. It's worth it for some of the wonderful flavor combinations they have. Well worth returning to!

My girlfriend & I visited once on Sunday, July 13, 2025. We went over to Burtonsville seeing that a long time staple of the area was closing that day or the next, which we saw on social media. But when we got there, there was a sign saying Friday, 7/11 was their last day and thanking people for patronage. We went across the street to Tropical Smoothie, but they charged full price each for water cups; we walked out, and later that day, I slammed them with a rare 1-star Yelp review (see that from 7/13/25). I referenced ISAAC's in that review saying one of these days I got to get around to a 5-star of where we ended up, which it ended up being 11 months later. We decided to check out ISAAC's across the street from here in the newly remodeled Burtonsville Crossing center. This was order at the counter. We got chicken sandwiches, which were large, much bigger than Chick Fil-A, and more delicious too. I got mac n cheese & Brussel Sprouts, which we split. We sat at a high top counter. Seating is a bit limited on a semi-busy Sunday. Everything was great! We will need to come back here one of these days.

This is only my 23rd 1-star review and crazy the 2nd business in this shopping center! See my 1-star review of Tropical Smoothie Cafe written last week (updated from my 2023 2-star review) of them. Maybe 1-2 years ago I ordered my food, and then asked for a cup of water. The guy said we have bottled water for sale, and I said no, just a free cup of water with my meal. He said we don't do that here, and told him I'm not giving any money and to cancel my order. I suggested to him that they should start giving courtesy cups of water with meal. A few months ago I was over there, and I wanted to test if Naz's changed a year later. They still didn't. The cashier said that all the Naz's don't offer the courtesy cup except for Columbia location as they had taken over the Halal Guys, which the set up of the restaurant was different for the coke machine. I've considered to try the Columbia location once, but I'm skeptical because it's still Naz's company policy to not offer courtesy cup of water to a paying food customer. It's not just that the Burtonsville only location are being jerks; it's Naz's as a whole. On Sunday, July 13, as a hail mary after the 1-star Burtonsville Tropical Smoothie Cafe right next door (see my recent review) was going to charge me $1.35 per cup of water even though we would've been paying customers. I said to my girlfriend, I'm sure Naz's will deny the water too, but let's test them, and I asked do you give a free cup of water with meal, which cashier once again said no. So, we ended up at ISAAC's across the street. I'll get around to a 5-star review of them in the future. My girlfriend said this shopping center sucks! Only Tropical Smoothie to not give courtesy cup + Naz's right next door. Also, it's the worst Roy Rogers location even though in March 2019, I see I wrote a 4-star review; various more recent experiences warrant 2-star for them if I ever get around to it. And the worst Greene Turtle I've been to; see my 3-star of the Burtonsville location. For good restaurants, go across the street to ISAAC's, Playa Bowl, or even freakin' Chipotle!

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.

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.
