I think that anything you eat tastes better grilled and on a skewer. Something about that grilled chicken really amps up the taste buds. I stopped in Grill Kabob for the chicken kabob meal. It comes with rice, a huge pita, lots of juicy chicken, salad, and beans in a tikka masala sauce. Everything was delicious! They give you large portions and the price was reasonable. Service was great and I gave my order and about ten minutes later it was done. They even remembered I asked for all Jasmine rice. It is located in Westfield Montgomery Mall, so the ambiance is nice. If you are looking for a chicken kabob, this is quick, easy, and delicious head over to Grill Kabob. read more

While walking through the mall, my mother-in-law suggested we eat at Grill Kabob. I'd walked past it a few times but never felt the urge to try it--until now. Mom-in-law was absolutely right; this place is fantastic. I went for the Number 6 Beef & Chicken Kabob Combo with rice, salad, and baked bread. From the very first bite of the chicken, I was hooked. It was clear that the chicken had been marinating for a while--the flavor was infused throughout, not just on the surface like at other places. The chicken was juicy, and the beef was incredibly flavorful. The white rice paired perfectly with the dish, making it even better. I'm honestly upset I hadn't tried this place sooner. I'll definitely be coming back, and I highly recommend giving this kabob spot a try! read more

Today is the first time I had Grill Kebab. I ordered the Kubedah Kebab and the ground beef was grilled to perfection, with a slight crispness. While I had ordered my kebabs with a salad, somehow they gave me the rice and salad dish. The salad was fresh, but it didn't have olives and I'm accustomed to having olives in my salads when I order middle eastern dishes. It'd be nice if olives could be added. read more

We had a hard time deciding what to get at the food court. We both deciding on this place. The staff was friendly and helpful. We both decided on a salad but with different proteins. The gyro and chicken were both delicious. The salad ingredients would use a little help. The salad came with naan bread which was delicious. Overall a good experience and a good choice. read more

Really enjoyed the chicken kabob meal I had. Everything seemed fresh and tasty. I have been here before and had the combo with lamb but I find just the chicken is better. The lamb can be a bit chewy. Enjoy your meal! read more

Don't buy food from this place. The owner is selling lamb kabob, but they are really steak.... We ordered our food and as we began to eat my princess bit down on her meat. The. Asked me to taste the meat. I asked her why did she ordered steak. She said she didn't order steak. We went back to the counter and spoke with the owner and he was very nasty. He said you don't know what you're talking about. You don't know what lamb tastes like. "WOW".... read more

This place is the best "mall" food you will ever get! It's really more like restaurant quality that is conveniently located in the food court of Montgomery mall. I eat here every time and it always hits the spot after a long day of shopping! The chicken kabob platter comes with tender juicy chicken, 2 kinds of rice, salad and dressing, chickpea stew, and my favorite Afghani green hotsauce. The quality and amount of food you're getting beats all the other options at the mall and serves Halal food. The service is fast and polite as well. Seriously so good! read more

I've been to the Grill Kabob at Tysons Corner Mall, Wheaton Mall, and Springfield Mall locations for years and they've all been great. Tasty food and generous portions. Tried this one at Montgomery Mall and the employees were rude and gave the smallest portions. The carryout container was tiny. Their rice was half the size, the chick pea container was half filled, and the bread was tiny. I couldn't believe it. Never buying here again. read more

Excellent food made fresh. Chicken kababs were juicy and flavorful. The garbanzo bean curry was delicious. The naan was fresh and crisp outside and soft inside. The rice was very flavorful. It was long basmati rice. Delicious! The salad was plentiful and fresh. They have a couple of sauces . Packed with care. We were very pleased. Highly recommend. read more

Grill Kabob - There's a bug in the salad :( - Middle Eastern Near Me - Bethesda, Maryland

Probably the worst Kabobs I've ever had. Tough lamb and tasteless chicken. One would think that with such a captive audience you could actually go all out and try to make something great. read more

Very decent food for a food court. Chicken kebab salad with a side serving of cooked chick peas and freshly baked nun for $12 is a good deal. Fresh, simple, cooked to order, well marinated chicken though a bit on salty side to my taste. Decent service ( staff is not smiley or overly friendly but efficient and respectful). Not a place that I would return intentionally but a good choice if you find yourself in a mall and are considering a quick healthy meal on a budget. read more

Grill Kabob - Chicken Kebob salad $12.71 with tax - Middle Eastern Near Me - Bethesda, Maryland

This place is so good! $11.99 for a chicken kabob that comes with two types of rice, amazing chickpeas in an even more amazing sauce, salad, chicken of course, bread and tzazaiki sauce I believe. The chicken had great flavors and was not dry at all. I felt like the portions were a great size and I had enough leftovers for lunch the next day. This location is inside the Montgomery mall, across the hall from Chic-fil-a. Worth the trip inside the mall. read more

Grill Kabob - Chicken Kabob - Middle Eastern Near Me - Bethesda, Maryland

Absolutely HORRIBLE. Food was alright but they didn't wrap it correctly so it dripped EVERYWHERE, on my coat too!! Also, they charged me TWICE, that is outrageous. The moment I called back to get a refund, I was obviously upset, and the man started to get mad and ask why I'm upset. I was upset because of this horrible service, they charged us multiple times and tried to charge us a third time but I told the woman NO because I saw the receipt. They're now refusing to send the money back to MY CARD, which I paid on. Now, they want us to go all the way back to the store and either get more food or get it back in cash. They said that they can't give it back using the credit card, which you clearly can. I'm very upset because I used to love this place, DONT BUY HERE!!!! If I could give 0 stars, I would, but I have to give 1. Horrible, just horrible. I won't get my money back because they don't understand that I DO NOT HAVE TIME to go back to their establishment, life isn't that easy. Just DONT BUY FROM HERE. read more

This is the worst service I have ever experienced in my life, the woman at the cash register forced me to put my card in again after I repeatedly told her that it already said accepted, the second time I put my card in again she told me to do it once more but I STATED that I saw it sayin it was accepted with a check mark. Then she repeatedly argued me saying that my card declined and I had no money. Then, the receipt printed, showing it DID go through, the ambiance of the whole restaurant is hlrribl. Later on, today I found out she charged my card twice and it said I spent 72 dollars here!!! DO NOT get food from here, this establishment has scammed me and when I reported this issue by calling, the manager told me it wasn't a big deal, "why are you so mad?", then argued with my mother. I want my 36 dollars back, the service was horrible; the food took almost 20 minutes to make, it was overpriced and wasn't worth my time. Do not waste your time at this establishment, take my word for it. read more

I won't be ordering again. Everything just tasted bad. Maybe the worst falafel I've ever had? I couldn't even finish one. The texture, the look and it all had an oddly sour taste. The rice was fine, and that's about the only good thing I have to say about it. read more

Chicken Kabob Platter - great meal and it was made fresh in front of me - chicken cooked, salad added with a little dressing (extra provided on the side); pita looking bread which I just recently discovered is "Naan"...warm; rice was shelly and long - tasted good and I got some beans on the side (I think it was beans), which I ended up eating some of it later after my meal was done (I had forgotten it was there). Location picked at random from Montgomery Mall's website and I enjoyed everything in my meal that I plan to go back and try either the same thing again or maybe their Gyro. Can't beat fresh...Yum!!! read more

Food is good but service is terrible. We ordered ground chicken but received ground beef. They refused to fix it without a lot of hassle. Don't recommend using them for takeout. read more

Very very good. Not greasy or heavy. Very tasty. I picked up for catering when having people over. Great reviews all around!

This is my favorite place to go for lunch. I always order double brown rice... today I missed lunch and it's now 7pm, they forgot and gave me white/brown. Not that big of a deal as the food is delicious anyways. The price is average for a kabob. Im a small guy so Im usually full after eating half of my meal, saving the rest for later. It's SOOOOOO good. Dont eat here, you will increase my wait time. Better yet, EAT HERE... we need to keep this place in business! I came here today after a stressful day at work; certified attitude adjustment. Best part is, when you done you can grab a desert and go shopping... you can even go down the hall and get a massage! Thank me later! read more

We got the chicken platter and gyro sandwich and both were so good! For some reason my expectations were low but the staff were all so nice and everything seemed very fresh. Loved all the sauces and sides too. Will definitely be back soon. read more

This used to be our family's go to place for good kabobs, and being middle eastern, we are picky about where we eat. In the past this place had good, reliable food, but in the last 6 months, I've been 4 times, and every time I've gone, my orders been messed up, things have been left out, my food has had poor quality, or the people helping us have over charged us or didn't know how to use the computer system. I hope this is just a phase, but when I talk to other people who have had the same experiences, it worry's me. I hope this place turns around for the better. read more

The food has no flavor. The chicken was moist however there was no flavor in the chicken no flavor in the lamb or rice.

Disappointing. So many wonderful places to eat in the area, I would go elsewhere. Chick peas were not good at all, 90 percent of the meal was rice and there was not a lot of favor/taste. Just plain Jane. disappointing. read more

We ate lamb-chicken kabob and gyro salad, french fries. All meals were delicious and fresh. I and my friend was pleased because of finding halal food. I hope we can find more restaurant. read more

2.5 stars. No complaints about the food, but service is lacking. The person that takes your order on any given day looks like they hate it/don't want to be there. It also takes quite some time to get your order, no matter how many customers are waiting - expect to wait a minimum of 10-15 minutes. read more

We have been here so many times in the last several years. Either the one in Tyson's or this one are great. Love it so much we get the chicken and koubedah every time. There is almost always a line and it does take about 15 minutes to get your food because they grill your meat after you order. The number 5 is almost big enough for 2 people. You get two types of rice and a naan with every plate. A lot of times you also get a small cup of chic peas. The number 5 is like $16 or $17. Really pretty good for the amount of food you get. This is my favorite place in the food court. read more

Food is good. Order ahead of time. There is always someone standing there waiting for their food.

The owner is an Afghan, nice man and supervises his staff. Price is better than most places I think given it's location. Food quality is great too! It's a Saturday evening and the order took maybe 10 min or less. read more

The food was ok. But our number was 78 and they were serving food to 88 and we still hadn't gotten ours. Then, they got it part of the order wrong and had to redo it. For fast food at the mall we waited over 20 minutes while people ordering after us were served. The cashier (habib) was not really friendly except to people his own age (16-19?). Like I said the food was JUST ok and was definitely not worth the aggravation. I am at the mall 3-5 times a week and will never eat here again. Completely unorganized!!!! read more

Grill Kabob - Chicken kebab with fresh bread - Middle Eastern Near Me - Bethesda, Maryland

Had dinner here before a movie. Located in the large food court of the ArcLight Theatre at Montgomery Mall. I consider this Afghan eatery more "fast casual"than "fast food". Everything looks to be freshly made, and there's a lot of staff, each seeming to do his/her particular job. I ordered the chicken kabob which was tasty, albeit somewhat salty. Served with rice, an over dressed green salad, a huge piece of round bread, and a small side of a chickpea concoction which I really enjoyed. Staff was less than friendly and seemed to be working too fast (thus the over dressed salad), perhaps to keep palace with the many orders. You could do a heckuva lot worse in the food court. read more

Kinda costy but you do get what you pay for. Very tasty afghan food! Also, if you want more of something you can always ask to substitute the salad for more of something else as you can see from the pictures---they are not stingy with the food! read more

Afghans are a proud people. Their culture predates their religion by over a thousand years. They follow a law code, Pashtunwale, which threatens a worldly damnation of suffering upon anyone who betrays their sacred values of hospitality. To an Afghan, hospitality is not a multi-syllabic English word. It is a way of life. Betrayal is unthinkable. And yet, that is exactly what in the past years Grill Kabab has done to Afghan cuisine. This once-proud and honorable establishment has taken to adding mayonnaise​ to their yogurt. There is no mayonnaise in Afghanistan. Even after years of Soviet oppression, none of their northern neighbors have dared to pollute their cuisine with the foreign substance. Even Pakistanis, the age-old nemeses of Afghans, think of mayonnaise as a strange, sad invention of a West lacking any real cuisine. So why has Grill Kabob embraced it as their favored step-child? Okay, the mayo-hate aside, the quality of the food offered by this establishment has all but collapsed. A few months ago, they added 10-15% to each of their prices, and began shortchanging​ customers in quantity and quality. Grill Kabob is losing its luster, and Middle Eastern, Muslim and halal-favoring customers are moving on two newer, more loyal horizons outside Montgomery Mall. Heartbreaking. read more

This is consistently a favorite of mine in Montgomery Mall. No matter what I order, I know I can count on fresh, delicious food.

The food here is very tasty and they give great portions. I ordered the Falafel platter. It came with white rice, seasoned rice, chickpeas ,three falafel and a whole pita. My only issue is the customer service. I asked if there was a cucumber dressing in my bag and the server ignored me. I asked again and she didn't respond, but went ahead and put another dressing in my bad. read more

Grill Kabob - Falafel Platter - Middle Eastern Near Me - Bethesda, Maryland

3.5 stars - typical mall food. My chicken gyro was $1.25 more expensive than a regular lamb gyro(?) and took 10 minutes to come out , which I was okay with, given the bread came out fresh from the tandoor and chicken was grilled fresh too. The sandwich was yummy and the green sauce on the side was perfect to kick it up a notch. Service is not the best really, and it's hard to some times makes your self understood since te workers are Spanish. I'd come back again.. Exhausted from shopping that is :p read more
