Great food and great service. Highly recommended.My to go place when hungry and in need for good and relatively healthy meal.

Ordered take-out only but the lamb kebob was delicious both times I ordered it. Very tender, not overcooked. Many of the patrons appear to be regulars. A good sign of authenticity read more

Food delivery is fast and food came in hot and fresh. Ordered the lamb chops with rice,some salad and Spinach. The lamb chops are seriously so tender like melt in your mouth. I was able to cut it up with my plastic knife with no resistance. Will order again:) read more

Ashburn Kabob - Lamb Chops Entree - Middle Eastern Near Me - Ashburn, Virginia

Good food. Kabobs were delicious. Mantu had way too much onion and too little beef, but still tasted good, nonetheless.

Absolutely perfecta, five stars all the way. Great gyros too. The food is excellent, tasty. I love the gyro wraps.

So we'd been going for awhile and have always enjoyed it. We like to get the gyro platter but skip the fries and do all salad. VERY good! One night I was in the mood for something different and I saw "Mantoo" on the menu. There was no description, but it looked amazeballs so I tried it. OMG, people! Please try this amazing dish. I have them add a bit more spice to it but it's fantastic either way. It's now my go-to meal there and I get cravings for it often. YEAAAHHH! ps. To the guy who said they only serve fries and onion rings as sides: We get the spinach every time we go and it's amazing. Not sure why you thought they don't have more sides, but here's a pic of the menu. GO SPINACH! read more

Chicken smells stale beware and if you want to try just get one dish first and then order more

I'm eating leftovers for breakfast as I'm writing this review. We're staying in a nearby AirBnB and searched for takeout for dinner. God was smiling down on us as she guided our search results to Ashburn Kabob. The chicken and beef kobidah were moist, flavorful, and smoky. The spicy chapli kabob was great, too! It was all served over a bed of aromatic rices and fresh onion. The star of the show was the Banjan Borani appetizer. Wow! Soft, buttery, smoked eggplant in a tangy, spiced tomato stew and served with fresh flatbread. It. Was. So. Delicious. read more

We've lived near the place for many years but never thought to stop in until today and I wish we had gone in sooner. I had the chicken kabob and my wife had the beef and chicken combo. They were both terrific. The meat was tender and juicy with the right amount of seasoning. The rice and naan were very good as well. We'll be back for sure. read more

I hate that this place is so far away from me, but when I'm in that area it's my go to place. Everything I've ever had there is delicious. Everything is fresh and well prepared. All their kabobs are great, but I truly love their eggplant. It was made differently than other places I had that just add way too much oil. I'd like to say I think their method of cooking is healthier too! Go to this place for sure! read more

In town for a wedding, and my partner and I grabbed to-go for dinner. We both ordered the koobideh platters, one chicken and beef. Our sides were spinach and chick peas. When I tell you this food lifted my soul, I'm not exaggerating. Absolutely delicious kabobs w enough char, well-seasoned, perfectly cooked rice, and tasty side sauces. You can taste love and care in food, and this spot has it all with wonderful service. If you live near this restaurant, count yourself lucky!! read more

To ownership, I ordered a lamb combo with chicken. I got sick with horrible stomach pain and heart burn for 3 days and my entire body itches. Had to go to the ER and they prescribed antibiotics. I don't know what you guys marinate the lamb with but you need to change it. Plus, only 3 pieces-seriously? Terrible experience read more

Great customer service and great food. Decently better than a lot of Afghan restaurant in the area!!! Food is amazing read more

Decent food, bad service. Had business in Ashburn and came here because of the great Yelp reviews and because I really like Afghan. The food was pretty good, but the poor service was really disappointing. Popped inside and ordered two kabob sandwiches to go and was told that I would need to wait 20 minutes. I was preparing to wait around by an empty table but the server--even though there are no specific COVID-related guidelines on their website, on Yelp, or in the store--asked me to wait in my car and she would bring my order out to me. It was a little surprising, but I tell her the make/color of my car and that it is two cars behind the front row. I wait. And wait. And wait some more. I give them some extra time because it was lunchtime and wait 35 minutes before calling them. An employee--possibly not the same one--picks up and confirms that my order is ready. Judging by her reactions, I'm certain that t's been sitting there for a while, as if they had forgotten their promise to drop it off by my car. I'm annoyed at this point and because I don't feel like doing another round of mask-donning and hand-sanitizing in my car, inform her that they were supposed to bring it out to my car. She agrees, and I once again remind her of my car's make/color and that it's two cars behind the front row. Someone from the restaurant comes out holding a bag, does a four-step loop in front of the door, and decides that she does not see my car and immediately heads back inside. I give them another two minutes in case they're calling me to flag down my car. Nothing coming, I annoyedly stride inside to the store, where the original employee explained they couldn't find my car. I'm not sure if she apologized for not remembering that she said she would drop off my order at my car (but didn't), or that they didn't go beyond the bare minimum of looking for my car even though I gave them clear descriptions of my car's make/color/location. I don't think she did. At that point, I was too annoyed to care at that point and threw up my hands, took my food, and walked right out. There were also more diners sitting inside this time, so I don't know why I couldn't have waited inside originally and avoided this problem. The kabob in the sandwich is pretty good. They have aushak which I almost always order at Afghan places and would've next time. But there won't be a next time. read more

The food was amazing! I ordered mantoo, ashuak, combo for two, and qabuli palaw. The presentation of the order once received looked beautiful as well. I was very pleased since I ordered food to do a mukbang video. The fact that the presentation looked great, it definitely helped. :) Definitely would order from here again! Also, the dumplings... they do dumplings better than Asians. If you want to see the food up close, please see the video below. https://youtu.be/I_g8GqUG5Cg read more

Ashburn Kabob - Ordered for my mukbang video! Food looked and tasted great! - Middle Eastern Near Me - Ashburn, Virginia

When we arrived it was fairly crowded but, they flip the tables quickly and clean it all up. The food was standard at best, the chapli kabob was fresh and pretty tasty, not spicy like it said on the menu though. The combo platter had nicely cooked chicken and lamb. Both plates came with fresh salad (the freshest I've seen around), naan (slightly over cooked but, still okay), and rice. The rice was okay, it didn't have much flavor and that was kind of a disappointment, it was still delicious though. You could choose a side as well, I went with spinach and my husband went with the chickpeas. I thought the spinach was a little too watered down and it was soupy in a sense and my husband enjoyed the chickpeas because they weren't over cooked. The side sauces were also very good! Special note: the restaurant was very clean! They had timely service from the moment you order to when you receive your food. Everyone was very polite. Also very decently priced! read more

Ashburn Kabob - Middle Eastern Near Me - Ashburn, Virginia

We absolutely loved our kabobs! The service was amazing and the restaurant was clean and well kept.

Great service. They forgot to give us tzatziki and chutney in our take out order. The food was very dry and tough to eat because of this. Made for a forgettable experience. read more

Horrible. Maybe because we didn't eat at the restaurant and had delivery via Uber Eats, but the quality of our food was very, very poor. That the management would allow it to leave the kitchen and their establishment to be consumed by anyone is speaking to their lack of care. The naan was obviously reheated in an oven making most of it crispy and inedible. The lamb was not freshly cooked and obviously reheated as well, mealy and massively overcooked. The chicken was hard and extremely dry and it went into the trash as it was completely inedible. Overall a complete waste of money and a huge disappointment considering the other reviews. read more

I really wanted to like this place, as I am always in search of a great kabob place. Unfortunately, this was not that place. My first surprise was the lack of authentic side dishes. I am looking for haleem, lentils, chick peas, spinach, think of that ilk. Not at this place, they have American sides such as fries, onion rings curly fries, etc. No, if I wanted that I would have gone to a burger joint. When I asked if they had any real sides, the person that took my order asked for an example, so I said like haleem, she did not even know what it was. Sad, so sad. I will give credit where credit is due, the brown rice was nice, my kofte kabob was tasty, but only a single skewer of meat for $11! No sides included with the meal except a salad. The salad was probably the best salad that I have had at a Kabob place. The naan bread made me want to cry, it was so dry, tasteless and brittle. This clearly is not naan cooked in a stone oven like other places. Honestly this was the biggest letdown, I could do better buying pita bread at the grocery store. The food is overpriced for what you get, at Charcoal Kabob you get two skewers of meat, fantastic freshly cooked naan, some cooked veggies, rice, salad, and the authentic side dish of your choice, for the same price. I really wanted this place to be a star, but it looks like I will just drive another few miles and keep going to Charcoal Kabob. Ashburn Kabob is decent, but has a long way to go, I would suggest starting with real naan bread and sides a bit more exotic than French fries. I give it two stars because I liked the taste of the rice and my single skewer of kabob. I may try it again, but actually I probably will not, it was a big letdown. read more

Moby Dick beware!! Here comes the competition. The kebabs were great. The spices were awesome. A must try if you love kebabs. Stopped for lunch. Service was quick and place was clean. Food came out quickly. Ate the ground beef kebab and a friend are the chicken shawarma which was also great ( it come rolled Ina. Big Afghan bread instars of a pita). The spicy sauce is good and they have some free hot tea. read more

Best in Ashburn, love their family platters. Will go back for their kabobs and mantu.

This place is awesome. If you are looking at reviews wondering if you should order this, do it. $12 for kabob, rice, beans, & bread and when you're done you're so happy. Flavorful, fresh, large portions. read more

Okay just picked up and enjoyed a great meal from Ashburn Kabob. Convinced the wife to try and they did not disappoint . Ordered the lamb and chicken for two with potato and spinach side dishes. Extra veggie kabob, delicious and the tenderloin beef kabob served medium. So very render and delicately marinated.Wanted to give the wife lots of choice and she loved it. All and all a great experience and even forgot to take pictures for my review LOL! Will be ordering again. Thanks! read more

This was one the best meals I have had this year. Have you ever had a meal where you felt like you were walking on air after eating? That was this meal. I had a combo kabob, with chicken and lamb over salad, in place of rice, since I was in keto mode. It was perfectly seasoned, not to salty. They were very friendly and accommodating. The sauces are delicious and the meats tender. I ate at the restaurant. Service was prompt. The decor is not great, but they are mostly a carryout joint. It is comfortable enough. I took some baklava to go, which was good but not great, although I ate that two days later, to be fair. I cannot wait to eat there again. They have made it into my weekly rotation. If you are on the fence about whether to try this place, don't. The five star reviews are true. Run don't walk. read more

Never had a bad experience with the food here, always good and they are extremely kind and friendly. Highly recommend the Combo for 4

Test good, however, I asked for Beef Kobob and got kobidah beef instead. Hopefully next time they will get the order correct. read more

Update 4/6/18 Ever since this place went under new management, I can't stop coming here. Their food and service is top notch! Highly recommend getting the combo for 2 which is a bit of everything. Best kabob spot in Ashburn! I was pretty happy and surprised to see a new Kabob establishment in Ashburn as we could definitely use more of them. As I came in I noticed that this isn't a very authentic one that serves chick peas, lentils, spinach, other side dishes that I am accustomed to. I just moved here so I am looking for a place like Dulles Kabob, Kabob Express, Charcoal Kabob. I have to say, It is frustrating that you have to pay $.50 for sauce. Many of the other great places do not charge for it and it definitely makes me want to come back. The food was okay. We got the jojeh and kofta kabob. It came with rice, salad, and naan. The naan taste like it was store bought and was frozen that they attempted to bake. This is definitely not the fresh naan you get at the other places. The bone-in chicken that I got was more bone than chicken. Can't believe they skimped on the chicken to bone ratio. I'd suggest you go to one of the other places I mentioned as they are worth the drive. Wish this place well but I doubt I'd be back. read more

We ordered for the first time for curb-side pickup. The variety was freshly prepared, reasonably priced & generously portioned. The lamb shank with carrots & raisins rice was just ammmaaazing! The kabobs were a bit dry and unflavored for our liking but we still ate the very last bite. We are def. ordering again. read more

We ordered food for a special occasion over the Holidays based upon a friend's recommendation. Wow! We are so happy to have listened. The chicken and the chick peas are awesome! Definitely the best I've had around here. I've enjoyed the leftovers all week haha read more

Staff were friendly and the place seemed clean. We ordered a chicken and a beef kebab. Both came with large portions of rice, prepacked salad and fresh whole meal bread. The salad was old, limp cucumbers and soggy tomatoes with wilted brown lettuce, not great, but the rest of the food wasn't bad. Enjoyed the green tangy sauce provided. read more

The kabobs are solid. We like the beef and the chicken. But way too much rice and bread. The spinach side lacks flavor and the chickpeas have too much sauce. If you are sticking to the meats I think you will be happy with the flavors. read more

Very expensive for what they serve !!! This is a fast food style cafe with paper plates! Why do you have to pay such high prices for rice and kabob that takes forever to get ready! The water they served in the pitcher had beef drawn from the aquarium seriously when we called the waitress over she was shocked herself by looking at the glass I recommend You think twice before going read more

This place was my go to for a long time. It is like a soul food with rice with chickpeas... nicely grilled chicken was my go to protein. Lamb is tough and dry but other meat seemed ok. Oh and yes... the bread is very good. However the consistency is lacking. Some days are five star but some days are two star in terms of food. I had ups and downs with this place. It is a decent place but I don't find myself go there anymore. Maybe I will try again hoping for the better. read more

i believe, Ashburn kabab has one of the best Kabab here in Loudoun area i have tested most of the kabab houses this place is one of the best i have ever experienced or eat, i really recommend for you guys to test one time you will always go there. Thanks read more

Absolutely delicious Ashok! I'm from an area with the most amazing Afghan restaurants, so was a bit wary of the quality of food here. I was very surprised. The ground beef kabobs were a bit dry but the Ashok was one of the best I have ever tasted. It was amazing and perfectly spiced. These guys are not stingy with quantity either so you are going to get your money worth. The bread is also FRESH! Highly recommended! read more

Ashburn Kabob always has the best, freshest kabobs. You are always greeted with a smile. There's a reason they stay busy, the food and prices are great! read more

Our favorite bang for your buck! Do you get a shit ton of rice and bread, YES! Is that a a bad thing?? NAH. If you think putting yourself in a food coma for a great price isn't for you then get a salad I guess.... Aside from the great portions the food a delicious. The only issue i ever had was when ordering delivery and it was super super late, ashburn kabob tOok it upon themsLeves without my calling to send me a shit ton of extra food. Sides on sides on sides. So I would say they redeemed themselves. Anyway def gIve it a try! read more

My go to kabob place! I always order combo for two and share with the wife and have leftovers. The portions are HUGE and def worth every penny. There offer variety of meats with two different kinds of delicious rice. One bad part is that they charge you .75 cents for extra sauce but besides that Highly recommend you give them a try! No regrets! read more

Food is good but they always add an additional fee for "requested" items.... No additional items were requested. And their phone is always busy. read more
