Mariano S.

i checked this place out after a friend recommended it. I tried the chicken kabob with lamb rice and chickpeas. The boneless chicken was juicy and seasoned well, rice and chicken peas were the star of the dish, it was all seasoned and cooked well. If you are a lamb lover then you'll enjoy it more than I did. The cook on the lamb was medium at best. It was decent, but I'm not a huge fan of lamb. I also ordered a hummus with pita bread. That was amazing. I recommend that alone if you needed to try something from this place.

Love Maiwand Grill! We got carry out, with a variety of items including the sweet pumpkin side dish, spinach, and meats. Everything was flavorful and delicious. The order was quickly filled and ready when we came to pick it up. The restaurant lends itself to takeout, but there were a few tables inside of you wanted to eat in.

I went to Maiwand Grill and first noticed that they had touched up the interior. It adds so much to the ambience of the restaurant, gives it a real cozy feel. The chicken kebab is amazing, and my mom ordered the chicken kofta combo. I replaced my salad with spinach, and my mom replaced hers with pumpkin. I recommend to get the pumpkin with yogurt on top. They gave me an extra white sauce for my salad, it was delicious and creamy, and thick. Best Maiwand location by far!

This is my favorite takeout in Burtonsville! The chicken kebab platter is so delicious and a healthy option in a sea of fast food!

DENIED WATER Got…read moresome suggestions on Yelp email on restaurant recommendations and Naz's Burtonsville came up. 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!

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.

I love that they have 2 different cultures in one restaurant. I ordered the halal this time. It's…read morealways tasty and fresh. You can also eat in if you like. I definitely have gone back several times.

How in the world have I never Yelped this place? I literally order take out from them weekly…read more I'm going to prefix this review that if you're the kind of person who thinks Moby Dick has great, authentic food... you shouldn't come here. Kabob n Karahi uses authentic spices, and what you get is like the difference between chef boyardee and actually going to Italy. This is a very local chain, and the restaurant honestly feels a bit like a high school cafeteria. It's probably not the place to go for a date night. :) This is why I have gotten take out 47191 times and eaten there once. The food is amazing, and going in does have the benefit that they'll often have specials not in the menu. I'm currently polishing off a lamb kabob, and I actually found a black cardamom pod in it. That's such a different flavour than you'll get most places (and despite the name, it's not cardomom). It's rich in sumac and just YUM. Stop in and grab dinner in the way home, for something flavourful, unique, authentic and just plain different.

This is my absolute favorite kabob spot in the area. I regularly get takeout from here and it is…read moresupremely consistent and delicious. I recommend any of the kabob combos and recommend getting the channa as one of the sides. The salad is...interesting, but the channa is incredible every freaking time. The kabobs also come with their tandoor bread, which is so fluffy and delicious, and especially fantastic with the green dipping sauce. Just writing this makes me want to order it now. I generally get the tandoori or boti chicken kabobs and both are excellent, the boti being boneless so it is a little drier than the tandoori, but the seasoning is fantastic all around.
