    Bone-in Chicken Kebab

    I love this food! Amin the owner gives amazing costumer service, it's a really clean place. 100% recommended

    Lamb and chicken kebabs

    Solid overall. No frills, a little lost in translation but solid overall. The lamb was tender. The chicken moist. The spinach a tad watery. The salad was fresh. 3.5 so I will leave 4 because halal was on point.

    Place is alright, I bought the chicken and beef combo and for the amount, it's pretty expensive. Meat was a little over done, chickpeas was decent. I ordered online and told them I placed it online and they made me wait because they thought I was grubhub :\ Overall it's ok, I have had better kabobs.

    I picked up dinner from this place the other night (because the place I was planning to go to was already closed) and glad I did! I ordered a Combo Kabob with one chicken skewer and one beef skewer, small chickpea soup, rice, salad, and Afghan bread. I loved everything! I ate as much as I could until I got really really full. The kabobs were very tender and flavorful and taste better with rice and/or Afghan bread. I'd definitely drop by this place soon for my kabob cravings.

    Sandwich and rice. The nan is well made.

    Friendly guy at the counter. the food was cooked to order, so it takes a bit longer but worth it. The food was really good. Seasoned right without over doing it. The green sauce has just the right kick. Dining room is very basic but clean. Overall, I'd come back for sure.

    Yelp reviewers, y'all let me down this time! I got the lunch kabob and Although they were quick with my order, It was flavorless. The chicken was ehh, the rice was alright, but the sauces....... the white sauce was STRAIGHT UP MAYO. WTF. The green sauce was watered down.. I normally love the white sauce and not the green bc it's too spicy for me , but here... it was the opposite. The only reason I could handle the green sauce was because it was so watered down. Also, The table was disgusting, not clean hence why I put my to-go box on top of a plastic bag.

    This place has really declined. I have been coming here for years and today I think it hit an all time low. I paid $13.50 for an entree to receive two small pieces of chicken. The rice had absolutely no flavor. I asked for meat sauce and was given lentils. What once was solid authentic afghan cuisine is no longer authentic at all. Prior to today we've had a number of delivery orders that were either wrong or missing whole entrees. The manager has always been very nice. I'm not sure if his absence from the daily operations are what is taking a toll on the service and food but I really hope they get it together.

    I've been going here for years. The lamb kabob has always been my favorite. I highly recommend for great service and great food!

    This place is a rip-off. The new manager service is terrible. They charge extra for using a card, but there's no signage to indicate this.

    My wife and I was on our anniversary weekend and she wanted some Mediterranean so she selected this…read moreplace called The Mediterranean Oven. First time visiting this place which was located in a strip mall with other businesses such as El Mirado, Arturo's Kitchen and Cafe Rio. As you walked in, plenty of seatings, some decor and it was clean. There 5 items ordered: 1) Samosa 2) Manto 3) Hummus 4) Chicken Pide 5) Lamb Kabob Wrap. When the hummus arrived to the table it also came with a basket with large strip of naan. The naan was lightly crispy on the outer edges, airy in the middle ànd with a dab of hummus on top. It was very delicious. The samosas came with three and the homemade green sauce. The samosas were tasty but by adding that green sauce really enhanced the flavors. I ordered a small manto which is their version of dumplings filled with beef which taste like lamb; onions topped with yogurt and fresh herbs. They were soft in texture and with the combination it was delicious. I stack the naan with the hummus and manto .. I tell ya bala bing. It was dang gone good. Now came the chicken pide which is an oval shape pizza that arrive to the table and it look gorgeous. The outer crust looks so pillowly and airy as the filling looks scrumptious. When I took that first bite, my taste buds were dancing with salivating joy. It was incredibly satisfying and once I added some green sauce, it elevated it even more. The wrap was delicious too. Our server Rina was friendly and knowledgeable. I will definitely make another visit whenever I'm in the area again.

    We love this place!!! It is so nice to have a casual restaurant with good food, freshly made naan,…read moreaffordable prices, and a wide variety of dishes. The staff are so friendly and the place is clean. It is a welcoming atmosphere, and we love bringing the kids in. They love the pizza, salmon, and meatballs. I really enjoyed my ground beef kabobs (Shami), the Manto, Samosa, and Gyros. Above all else, their bread is soooo good from their Naan to the garlic bread served with the Italian dishes. They make fresh dough in house and it makes a difference! It's great to have a solid Mediterranean and Afghan restaurant in Manassas! It's not a chain and is something unique. Come check it out when you're in the area!!

    Really good, but next time I want to try some different items…read more I ordered the Garlic naan 6/10 not much flavor and the Briyani butter chicken. Although good, I really love saucy rice so I might have to try the Butter chicken independently. I'm also going to try a more standard briyani like the goat one. Overall, I will definitely give this spot another try. We ordered a to go meal. It took around 10-15 mins to prepare. A very casual looking spot.

    BEWARE: This restaurant is extremely DISHONEST and is all about false advertising - so gross in…read morethem being super deceiving to its patrons! Their site clearly states that they have dine-in lunch special where one could 'order any of your favorite entree items & get $3 off) on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, between the hours of 11 AM and 2 PM. The staff, however, argued that it was for 'online orders only' (come on, no where on their site does it state this), and that since 'management was not present', they could provide a discount for 'one entree only' (while continuing to repeat that it was for 'online orders' only, as if they were doing a service for us - please). Meaning, they weren't willing to own up, honor, and rectify their false advertisements. Make this make sense, folks. Not sure if their recent renovation situation went to their heads, but shady and super sus business practices. Shame on you! This is not a good look, Charcoal Chicken, so no thank you - you lost a longtime customer. +DISHONEST +POSTS FALSE ADVERTISEMENTS
