Chicken and lamb
Pickleface L.

Very good food average service could be better, but nice restaurant to have group lunch or dinner. I love Middle Eastern food.

Chicken Wrap

Great food. First time trying afgan food and it didn't disappoint. It's worth a visit. The price is okay, $15 for a combo I feel like that's the norm. I got the chicken wrap, and the house sauce a

KOFTA & CHICKEN
John K.

First up, more than half of the tables here were Afghan so that says something about the food right off the bat. The interior is somewhat cafeteria-esque, with long communal tables. It's a good setting for kids. My all time favorite dish is mantu, so I can't resist getting that at every opportunity. These come with four small dumplings to an order, with a generous portion of delicious sauce on top. The chicken kofta platter was also very good. The chicken is well seasoned and tender and the ground meat had a very good balance of spices. Both were complemented with a mild spiced rice. The appetizer with the platter was a very filling portion, and the bread was toasty but still fluffy and soft. Appetizer and platter together were $31 including tip, which isn't crazy but not really a bargain. Quite nice if you enjoy Afghan food!

Chicken and beef kebobs
Brian S.

Solid food. Hubs and I had the chicken and beef kebobs. Love the rice and sauces and flavors. Only minor ding was some of the lettuce was brown. Went back today and had the daily special (chicken jalfrezi I think?) and salad was fresh this time. Place is always busy.

Mango smoothie
Jane H.

Dreaming of these curry chickpeas. So tender and flavorful! The tikka chicken platter was very good with a generous portion. The rice with it was perfectly cooked and aromatic. I loved the raisins in it. Salad was perfectly fresh and the green yogurt sauce was tangy and went well with the rest of the dish. Pita came out hot, was a bit hard after it cooled though. The mango smoothie was delicious and large.

Beef chicken combo with rice and salad. Extra meat on the left ($14)

Ate here a few times on a work trip. Food is very solid and I'll for sure be back if I'm in the area. My only gripe is that I asked the woman over the phone if I could add extra meat to my entree and she said yes, however when I went to pick it up she had just added a whole extra entree to my order for another $14. Lesson learned, but PSA you can't just get extra meat for 4-5 bucks. The rice was weirdly kind of sweet so I'll avoid that in the future as well since that's not really my thing. Overall, friendly service and solid food.

Chicken kabab salad
Lauren W.

Ordered takeout from here. Chicken kebab salad was exceptional. Chicken was moist and had a ton of flavor. Came with ranch and mint chutney. Ranch was that really good thick ranch. Greens and toppings were very fresh. Easy to park location near the airport. Food was ready when I came to pick it up, so I would say service is good. Very friendly. Nice casual place.

1 word. Amazing. The food tasted sooo delicious. We ordered the Mantwo, Koufta Challow and the…read moreBanjan Borwoni. The food was nicely seasoned, aromatics bursting forth off the plate, making me warm inside. The environment resembled fine dining, with its white linen adornments and cutlery, but the food tasted like a home cooked meal. The price of the food was astonishing since the quality was so rich. Service was decent, definitely not the most attentive but I don't really care especially when the experience was fantastic. Everyone should visit this restaurant at least once when they come to Baltimore :]

Not sure how we waited this long to visit the Helmand but wow will definitely be a repeat visitor…read morebased on this first visit. My boyfriend's dad was visiting from out of town and we decided to take a chance and see if they had any spots open for a Friday night dinner for 3. They luckily did and we were lucky to find street parking right in front of the restaurant. The interior is done up very nicely with cultural decorative elements from the Afghani diaspora. Service was very fast and attentive and food did not take too long to get to us. I ordered the lamb shank with the raisin and carrot rice (as did my boyfriend's dad) and my boyfriend got the vegetable sampler. The lamb shank was so tender and the seasoning on it was so savory and complemented perfectly by the slightly sweet bursts of the raisins in the rice it came with. My boyfriends platter was also a smorgasbord of delicious looking veggie dishes. The prices are also very affordable in this neverending climate of higher prices for a nice meal out. Would absolutely recommend this place (I totally get why everyone raves about it) and will continue to visit in the future.
