The rice, the chick peas, the naan bread, the boneless chicken kabobs were delicious. I like how the chicken breast of the kabobs were cooked perfectly. The lamb and chicken karahi was also spicy and flavorful. Their less spicy Karahi was good but the spicy version taste much better. We had good service when we went at 10 PM- even one gentleman behind the counter came up to our party to ask us how was everything. Nothing against this place but I think Ravi's in Arlington is a tad better with their chick peas & the Karahi. read more

This place is a hidden gem. One of the best kabobs places around the area. My wife and I got the lamb kabobs and Tika and samosas. The lamb and chicken was so tender and juicy with flavor. The samosas had great flavor to them. Would definitely recommend this place. read more

I can't say enough great things about this place! The food is so so good! I would recommend calling ahead for your food order, even if you are dining in. It can get pretty busy but definitely worth the wait. My favorite is the chicken kahari. Very flavorful and made for 2 people. It's served with delicious fresh Naan and a side salad. I also love the vegetable samosa. This hole in the wall is a must try! read more

This place is absolutely fantastic! My brother raved about this place and I know he has great taste in food so I had to try this place out. Last Saturday after work, I decided to try it out with the company of my brother. Mind you, this place is kinda far from where we live. It takes a good 45 minutes to get there driving the speed limit. Fortunately, my brother drives a little faster. I saw the business and it looks kinda run down. A hole in the wall, run down, generic looking place in a generic looking plaza somewhere in Silver Spring. And Silver Spring has a plethora of generic looking places. I walked inside and it's literally a hole in the wall. It had tables and booths that looked pretty old and when you see the counter and the kitchen in the back, you'll see that the place had nothing "new" in it. Except the food. So we walked in, my brother ordered for me since I didn't know what to get. He ordered the Lamb Karahi (for 2) and a side of rice and an extra side of naan plus 3 water bottles. We sat down on the half booth/half chair table on the side and waited patiently. There was a line before us so it took a little while. My brother told me that when he came here the other day, it was empty until they sat down and waited for their order. Then, the place got packed. Well, the same happened when I came. There were about 4 people in front of us and no one at the tables. When we sat down, the place got packed. And I mean packed. Every table was occupied and there was a line halfway across the building. We finally got our food and it smelled marvelous. Here's a warning to those of you who are not "adventurous" and even to some, it may have an acquired smell/taste to it. We all had Kabobs before and many of us had Persian, Afghani and Indian food but this place is quite different. It has a distinct smell and flavor to it. I can't explain the taste or what spices they used to make it different but it definitely seems like it's authentic. Remember that I said "SEEMS" so don't get the wrong idea if it really isn't authentic food. 2 pieces of Naan that were big enough to cover a whole plate, 1 small bowl of rice and a wok-looking pan filled with the succulent Lamb Karahi. Now, we could have gotten more but my sister's birthday party was a few hours after our meal here. I know we're fat haha! But I had to try this place out! My brother took it easy while I basically swallowed (#Pause) the whole damn meal. There were pieces of bone marrow littering the dish and chunks of juicy, bone-in lamb smothered in their specialty sauce which was all spectacular. I ate both Naan bread and a spoon of rice when my brother had just the rice. By the time we were done eating, everything looked like they were just washed and cleaned because I swapped every little piece of lamb and sauce with the Naan and breathed it into my tummy! Oh, another warning, if you're not a huge fan of spicy food then make sure to tell them you want mild because we got it spicy and it was SPICY! But I loved it. My brother on the other hand had to visit the bathroom numerous times that night. I grabbed a menu and while we were driving back home, I saw that the place had LAMB BRAINS! :O I'm planning to come here today after work to try it out! The portions aren't that big compared to what we're used to and the prices are a bit higher than usual but in the end, they were well worth the trip and price. read more

Kabob N Karahi - Lamb Karahi for 2. - Pakistani Near Me - Silver Spring, Maryland

We came by for father's day and had some delicious lamb kabobs and chicken karahi. Great food! Service was fast and courteous and the interior is spacious and beautifully decorated as well. Kabob N Karahi is one of the staples of northern Silver Spring, definitely check it out if you're in the area! read more

In case you are not aware- curry stains do not come out of clothing. You can try, but it's better to just say farewell to your stained shirt. My suggestion is to wear curry colored clothing, or to be very careful. This is a classic case of "order to go, and try not to touch anything on your way out the door." Enough with the warnings! The food at K&K is worth the need for careful eating. The kabobs are cooked to order and arrive hot and juicy. The chicken curry was drowning in too much oily sauce, but was tender and filled with flavor even after I pulled the meat off the bone and ate it with the somewhat crispy naan. The samosas are filled with potato and spice, and are easy to make a meal on their own, especially if you order them as a chat samosa , which I highly recommend. They are also the best way to round out a vegetarian meal here, as it is a bowl filled with crumbled samosa, chickpea curry, lettuce, tomato, onion, and sauce. Chat samosa is my favorite thing to order when I spot it on a menu, and this restaurant's version is nicely done. Each time I've visited I've been happy to see to-go orders flying out the door as the tables fill with regulars. The space isn't beautiful, and isn't spotless, but it is easy to see why. Every employee is needed in the busy kitchen at all times, and I doubt much thought went into the decor beyond "tables, chairs." One last word of warning (not that I'm traumatized or anything...) when curry spills on tables it takes more than a few swipes with a napkin to make it disappear. Just pick your seat carefully, be ready to clean up before and after your meal, and be ready to leave with a full and happy belly. read more

Midnight hunger pangs?! Well.. I suggest this place..!! It has awesome food,and it open till 12 on weekdays and 2am on weekends. They have typical Indian/pakistani food. Right from Sheesh kabab to chicken karahi and from fresh yummy Gulab Jamuns to hot cutting chai (Tea).. This place simply rocks!! my personal favorites are chicken karahi.. you can ask them to make it spicy.. it tastes real good, and the minced chicken kababs..I love them! The meat is always fresh and I find the place has a very sanitary feel about it. Don't miss the chai on a rainy day, it is the best drink to down your food. Also, they carry Indian drinks like Maza and Canada dry! :p Though I am not much of a fish person, I so love their Fish kababs.. yumm yumm yummm..!! Go there as a family, or as a group of hungry college gradies.. it's a nice place to eat! More like a fast food place almost, and everything can be made to go! On an average I spend less than $12.00 for a scrumptious meal and dessert! Word of Caution: they sometimes take a wee bit long to get the food out ( i can assure you it is only cuz tey make it oh-so-fresh).. but yeah, just so you know! :) read more

Delicious, reasonably priced kabobs & other Pakistani offerings, friendly staff. Great place to come and try something new! Good for anyone including families since a lot of their food (eg karahi) is served family-style or their portions are big enough to share. The environment was low key (cafeteria-style booths and tables), friendly staff, home cooked food, and great variety of options. You order at the front and wait until your food is ready. Everything we ordered was delicious and reminded me of my childhood friend's mom's cooking. Savory, flavorful, authentic, and bold flavored! Here's what we ordered: 1) chicken tikka: good and pretty standard. Grilled fresh and well seasoned 2) beef stew special: absolutely delicious; tender and flavorful 3) chickpeas: one of their best sides! 4) spinach: very good 5) lamb karahi: downright delicious and enough for at least two people! Served family style. 6) sweet ball-shaped dessert: just ok! A little too heavy on the cardamom 7) naan: comes w/ every entree; hot and delicious Make sure to get a side of their lovely basmati rice if you are sharing or to make a complete meal for your leftovers tomorrow! Summary: I recommend getting the karahi or one of their daily specials if you enjoy unique and authentic tastes. You honestly can't go wrong trying new things here! read more

We have been here now couple of times , never disappointed, always great customer service and delicious food. If you are into pak/Indian food here is the place . read more

Huge fan of this hidden gem. You get great authentic flavors at reasonable prices. I usually phone in my orders because grilling some of their meats can take 30- 60 minutes. Lamb or chicken kabob are my favorites. Meats are always seasoned well and cooked with that great grilled char taste. All orders come with a huge order of naan. I do wish they weren't so stingy with their yogurt sauce and just give you 1. They feature menu daily specials. If Maiwand grill isn't open late down the street in Burtonsville this is my go to kabob place. I always see the Karahi popular with couples or groups so its definitely on my must try list. read more

Kabob N Karahi - Lamb kabob with chutney and lahori cholay mix over rice. Meat always cooked to perfection - Pakistani Near Me - Silver Spring, Maryland

Amazing places. The food is so good over here. The kabobs are delicious actually everything is delicious and awesome. The karahis are really good too especially the chicken karahi. Portions are a good size and the prices are very good. Hard to beat the food from here. The restaurant atmosphere is very casual. They have different sides everyday and specials on the weekend (piya, nehari). They also do a great job catering food. The owners are great people to work with in this regard. They are very accurate on their recommendations for amount of food to order. They are very fair and honest. read more

Their food is amazing! Have not found a place that serves a better and spicier chicken karahi than here. The food is authentic and delicious and worth the wait. I normally get the boneless chicken karahi with rice and chole. It has never disappointed me. Only reason I'm not giving it a five is because the interior isn't that great and the wait can be lengthy at times. Other than that, great!! Try it out!! read more

Kabob N Karahi - Boneless Chicken Karahi & Chole - Pakistani Near Me - Silver Spring, Maryland

Nice big servings of VERY good meat. The spice is just right. So is the price. There's never a drive by this place that I don't think of stopping--even if I've just eaten! read more

Nice folks, quality food and they always have a fresh ready to go option. The prices are friendly :)

Overall the food was 5/10.But the thing that got me pissed was the person at the counter. It was my first time being and I ask him if certain things were available. He replied with a no in a ignorant way. The naan's are so bad. No ghee or garlic in it. Keep in mind this was on a weekday. read more

It has been several years since I have been to Kabob N Karahi. What a disappointment. The beef in the nehari was tough and chewy, an indication of being undercooked. There was not enough salt or spices although nehari is expected to be spicy. Maybe they have experienced a turnover of cooks, but todays food was subpar. Service was not particularly friendly either. read more

Fresh, Pakistani food. What more could you ask for? Their kabobs are cooked to order, their chole are some of the BEST chole Ive had and their karahis are spicy and soooo good. Everything on their menu is delicious! I come here often with my family and we are left statisfied every single time. Their prices are decent too, I don't think we have ever paid more than $90 to feed my famiy of 9 and still have leftovers for the next day. My personal favorite is the nihari and bone-in chicken tikka with chole but in the past I've also tried their payee, boneless chicken karahi, chapli kabob....just to name a few! read more

Well well well... I think I stumbled upon a gem!!! This place may not look like much, from the outside looking in or even from the decor on the inside, but let me tell you this... the food here is amazing!!!!! It's fresh! Healthy! Filling! Satisfying! The meat is halal and organic and you can definitely taste the difference! The service was also very good! Employees were attentive and conciseness of their customers. Tip: order your food via phone on Friday's & Saturday's to avoid the long wait for the food to be prepared. read more

Amazing Food! Where do I start? The Chicken Karahi is a MUST TRY when you go...make sure to ask for spicy. The ginger in the sauce for that dish gives it an unbelievable taste. Then make sure to take their fresh bread and dip it in the sauce. If you can fit a thing else in your stomach, the ground chicken kabobs are the next MUST TRY, they will have you speechless! Their boneless chicken kabobs and ground beef were outstanding as well. You honestly can't go wrong with any of their meats, very fresh. This spot is well worth the drive and well worth the try! read more

This place is one of my favorites. We meet up here during Ramadan usually but this time we went for a catch up meal with friends. We come here for the food not the service but you will see large families all over and the food is scrumptious. Lamb Karahi Extra Spicy is the best thing on the menu. But I also love the Naan and chickpeas. Parking is easy at this location and be prepared to wait about 10 minutes for your food. read more

Excellent food! Super easy ordering. But normal environment and cleaness. Still worth to try read more

Kabob N Karahi - Chicken Boti Kabob & Lamb Karahi - Pakistani Near Me - Silver Spring, Maryland

I have been going here since it opened a few years back. I absolutely love this place. It is my go to when I am craving desi food. Their food never disappoints, it is consistently good. Whether it be their karahi or the kabob's, the food is always tasty. Chickpeas are the best side they have. This place is also open relatively late and the service is also great. My only complaint would be that it is a little pricey. That being said, I would highly recommend to anyone. read more

The food here is phenomenal. The only things I wish were different is how oily their Karahi is when served and to use more meaty, rather than mostly bone-y, cuts of chicken for their curries. read more

Came here again recently and got the lamb chops. Also split the lamb karahi with a friend. I enjoyed the lamb chops slightly more, but both were the delicious. The lamb chops were on point and I will be going again real soon for them. I still wish that the green sauce that they use was thicker, but the lambchops were marinated so well, you don't really need it. May take a little while to get your food if you come in a large group. read more

This isn't the first time, we are here but this is the first time to write a review... price of the food as compare to the portioning is bit high, we were served a burned naan, all of their seekh kabob had same flavor/taste, when you walk in the restaurant, instead of food smell, you will smell the strong aroma of indian spices... they need to fix their exhaust system. I don't reccomend this place, only go their, if you have no choice and you are starved. read more

Amazing kabobs and sides. Takes awhile to prepare but totally understandable since it's all cooked to order. Haven't tried the karahi yet as I'm hooked on the kabobs but will soon. Recommend chicken tikka with bone- perfection!! read more

I found the food to be mediocre. The customer interactions were average. The lamb kebab was relatively tender. One piece was difficult to cut with the plastic knife. The lamb and sauce were pretty tasteless. The spinach was not very fresh either. The naan seemed more like pizza dough. read more

Kabob N Karahi - Pakistani Near Me - Silver Spring, Maryland

Naan: OK--a little crispier than I'd prefer, but I'll take it. Chicken Tikka's (dark meat) marinade was much more flavorful than the Chicken Boti Kabob (white meat) because of the spices, not because it's fattier. Also, the Seekh Kabob had bits of jalapeno in it for some random bites of spice that my bf almost couldn't handle, but he pulled through. Meals served with salad, rice, and naan. Not a bad deal!! I don't know if I'd come back again though, but we'll see. P.S. the sign was kind of hard to find because the font is SO small. So FYI, it's located next to a big shopping center on a strip of stores along the road. read more

Food is pretty decent even though if I order chicken tikka, it takes forever to come. We always get their weekly specials and something from the grill. But the customer service though on the other hand is one of the worst. The guy at the register always seem to have an attitude and whenever I ask questions, he doesn't look up to answer. He has one of the shittiest attitude I have seen. It is always the same every time we come here and my parents really like the place. I am not a fan of their customer service. If you order grill food, be prepared to wait. One time I'm sure I waited an hour. It wasn't worth it for the crappy attitudes that the staff has. read more

Wasn't a fan. Lots of oil in our channa and a side of attitude from the employee at the register. I really wanted to like this place

The food at the place is decent. My review is based on the lamb Karahi (for 2 people) and it was alright but it's not something I would come back for again. I haven't tried other items on the menu so i can't judge for the whole menu. However, the lamb Karahi I had was not as tasty as I liked it to be. We asked for medium spice but it didn't taste spicy at all. The taste was a little bit plain and wasn't as flavorful as other Kabob restaurants I've tried. The lamb Karahi came with a pot of lamb in their sauce, small side of salad, and 2 Naan breads. The Naan here got cold very quick, thin, crispy, and not fluffy where it should be so it wasn't that great. I will note that they give you a lot of lamb meat so that is good. The green sauce it came with was good and made the food tastier. The food here is okay but not good enough for me to come back. Since its my first time at the restaurant, I am comparing it to one of my favorite Kabob places which is called Kabob and Palace in Crystal City, Virginia. I was hoping this restaurant will be just as good but guess not. I'll go back to crystal city for my go-to restaurant to satisfy my kabob cravings. read more

This place has great kabobs and we're regular patrons. Our usual is the seekh kabob and chicken tikka (with bone). They're seasoned and cooked perfectly. The sides we get are the rice and chickpeas. They compliment the meats well. We've also had goat curry before and that was good. However, we usually go here when we're craving kabobs, so we're not too familiar with their curries. read more

Never, never go there! They serve you bad and old meat. Naan are like cushion and half cooked. Butter chicken is awful. Service and clerk are so arrogant and they never smile or greet you. Good quality sucks! We had horrible experience with butter chicken, chicken and goat tikka was uncooked and upon telling the clerk they never bother to redo or exchange! They have there own people giving them more stars but never never go to waste your money! read more

Excellent chicken karahi. Best in the area imo. Fast service. Great portions. Highly recommend it.

As a result of Covid, a number of Pakistani restaurants in College Park have gone out of business. In the past, we had been disappointed with their Brain Karahi, as it has been a hit and miss. As, in the past, their lamb karahi was pretty good, we tried that today. We were extremely disappointed. Absolutely the worst and tasteless karahi I have had in my life. Their food taste cannot possibly be any worse except. Next time, we want to order karahi, we will try either restaurants in Laurel or VA. Please stay away from this place until they improve the quality to at least bring it to half of what it was in the past. read more

I love the Chicken Jalfrezi! It is he best! Great Lohora Choley, too! They are very popular and serve Halal. There are a number of daily specials and a menu to order from. read more

This place didn't let me down last night! I was so hungry and looking for open places in Colesville at 11:15 pm. Thankfully I was able to call in a pickup of chicken botti and seekh kabob. I love the fact they are open late night!!! Now I have come in before late and was only allowed to choose from available food. I come here every couple of months and love the food. The bread is hands down the best! And the sauce delicious. The botti is huge chunks of pure breast meat chicken and the seekh was flavored wonderfully. This is great delicious food. The man at the counter has always been friendly and helpful. Clientele is as mixed as I've ever seen in a food place. This is a hidden gem for this area! read more

Actually, I was very disappointed to see the prices have gone up and the portions have gotten a lot smaller. The taste of the food is good. read more

Loveeeeee the food. My daughter who would prefer Chick-fil-A over most all other foods said she would eat this instead. Chicken Boti !!

I have been coming here for several years now and it always hits the spot when you're looking for some delicious Pakistani style kababs and naan. The kababs are well marinated overnight, you can see them lined up in the glass coolers by the register and are perfectly char grilled to order, served up with fresh baked naan that melt in your mouth. read more
