Let me start by saying I've never had Afghan food, so I came here with an empty belly and open mind. Now that I've been, I was far from disappointed! I never come to Baltimore, but I was in the area for a concert and wanted to have dinner beforehand. We called for a reservation to be told none were available but decided to go anyway. I was a bit optimistic when we arrived at 6:45pm on Friday to plenty of open tables. Unfortunately the host told us we couldn't be seated which I didn't understand at first, but 5 minutes later the place was packed! Luckily we just decided to sit at the small bar in the back. Service from the bartender was prompt, friendly and his recommendations were very helpful since I was new to most things on the menu. We ended up ordering the mantwo appetizer, lamp chops for my friend and the beef tenderloin special for me. All of the food was amazing! The flavors were new to me, yet familiar at the same time. Everyone we encountered who worked there was awesome and I can't wait to go back. The prices seemed reasonable to me for the portion and quality of the food. I couldn't finish my dish, although I definitely wanted to! We were in and out in an hour, and perfectly comfortable at he bar. read more

I love the food, so I couldn't stay away forever. Fortunately, the service seems to have improved since my negative review several years ago. I am still in love with the pumpkin and yoghurt garlic sauce. read more

Pros: Location and atmosphere. Cons: the service is really bad. No one checked on us the entire night. on top of that when the waiter saw my unsatisfied face, asks "are you alright?" With a rude face. Food was good, but the servings were small; maybe it's my appetite. In conclusion, it crushed my high expectations. read more

Afghani/Middle Eastern food is one of my favorite cuisines...and this place is the best of the best for so many reasons. I've been twice so far. Everyone's dishes were cooked and flavored to perfection. The staff really cares about your experience. The owner or head waiter? (if he isn't the owner, he cared for us so well that it makes me feel like he owns the place) is attentive and warm. ALSO it was my friend's birthday and they surprised her with a birthday dessert - but did not charge us for it. I was really surprised that they didn't and we thought that was so kind. I read a review here saying that someone was mad that they charged for a bday dessert...but shame on that reviewer because you shouldn't expect it to be comped! (Also, to make it a surprise, I snuck over to ask the first staff person I could find without my friend seeing...and he successfully communicated the message to our waiter, which is so rare!) They split our checks without any hassle at all and remember what everyone had. I can't explain it but the food is just so good...the chicken falls off the bone perfectly and the spices are spot on ... everything is just right. read more

People talk about the Helmand like it is God's gift to Baltimore. I took my parents there and we were all left unimpressed. The servers are fine I guess, but I felt like I was being stared at by the servers while we were there. The food was very bla, and I usually love any kind of ethnic/unique food. It was ok, but I guess I don't understand what all the rave is about. read more

The helmand is the sort of place you can ask for recommendation from the wait staff without getting a blank stare. They know their stuff and they all have a favorite dish to recommend. I never remember what I ordered previously because everything looks so good that I just order the special or blindly choose something from the menu. Everything I've tried was better than the last. As a non-vegetarian, I highly recommend their vegetarian dishes. They're so flavorful and packed with delicious vegetables I can't even identify. They make a mean gin and tonic too ;) read more

The Helmand is way better than I remember, and still an affordable option. Apart from a bit of a wait to be seated for our reservation, during which we crammed against the coat-rack as two very large parties swapped in/out at a bank of tables near the door, dinner at Helmand was very enjoyable. Despite being a jam-packed Saturday night for the Valentine's Day weekend, service was surprisingly prompt and efficient. Drinks arrived in short order, with glasses of Spanish Cava provided by individual small serving bottles instead of being poured from an open bottle at the bar. Appetizers showed up quickly after ordering, with salads, Kaddo Bowrani, Aushak, and Mantwo getting the thumbs-up. Our entrees were a selection of lamb, beef, and fish dishes - a poached salmon filet seared with a yellow pea sauce; lamb and turnip stewed with tomato and spices; a salad with sliced beef tenderloin; lamb stewed with mushrooms. The lamb and turnip combo was nicely tangy, spicy, and sweet (from the turnips) - just a real nice combo of flavors. Naan was served up hot with a slightly crispy outside and tender inside. Pumpkin cake, cardamom ice cream w/dried fruit, and pastries adorned the table for dessert - the ice cream a super-creamy vanilla-bean flavor with cardamom, dates, figs, and mango. Decor's nicer than I remember. It's been years since I've dined at the Helmand, and it seems warmer and more stylish than I recall. One warning though, is that the tables are closely set, and it can get a bit on the loud side when the dining room's full. Still, it's a good meal, and won't break the bank. read more

Why has it taken me over a month and a half to write this review?! This place is great! Went here on a Sunday evening with a lovely friend. Have wanted to go here for at least a year. Finally, I made it to this amazing place. When we first arrived (about 8pm) I think we were both a little startled because it looked like NO ONE was there...ahhh ha, the hostess led us to the back dining room, yay people! Our seating situation was a little awkward since we were oddly facing the people next to us, who seemed to be on a first date and though I never care what people are talking about, heck I can't even remember what I'm talking about half the time, it was hard to not listen to them converse. I ordered Seekh Kabob and it was delicioussss. The lamb was perfectly cooked and the vegetables and challow were excellent! My friend got a restaurant week special with a garden salad, lamb dish and dessert. He loved his as well! I thought the portion sizes were perfect. I did want to order the Kaddo Borwani (pumpkin app) but didn't since my friend already was getting salad as an app and I knew I couldn't eat it all myself. Next time tho, I definitely need to try it. I have been thinking about what I will order next time...I love getting lamb at restaurants since it's something you don't see tons of menus. We'll see! The atmosphere was great. Wasn't overly decorated but definitely a nice place to dine. I am a fan, a big fan! read more

I have to rate the food based on my opinion of the taste and, since this was my first time having afghani food, nothing to use for comparison. My girlfriend and I thought the food was very good and was worth 4.5/5 stars. The service was pretty good. We felt a bit rushed when our waiter asked if we had a drink order before we even opened the menu. And on more than one occasion, they started bussing our plates while we were still eating. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't too bad. And they kept my water pretty filled (which isn't an easy task) 4/5 on service. So, all in all, a solid 4 stars. Worth trying and even worth going back, it just wasn't as good as it could be. read more

Went here a few months ago with two friends and the menu did NOT disappoint. Everything we had was delicious and the service was wonderful - the wait staff was attentive but not overbearing, great ambiance, too! read more

As everyone else has pretty much stated how fantastic this place is already, I'll just highlight some key points: 1) Yes, they do serve up fantastic Afghani food with fabulous service and a classy setting--and for relatively cheap: averaging about $11-$15 for fairly large portions (believe me, it's a great deal with everything in consideraion). 2) The free bread (I forget the name) and the pumpkin appetizer with yoghurt. So very delicious (especially together). 3) Fantastic cardamom tea. 4) This is a great place to take visiting family and friends for a nice dinner. Or a charming date (on a slight budget). read more

The Helmand! I been wanting to eat since I moved to Baltimore, and I finally got the chance to do that! The food that my friend and I got was the Aushak and the Mantwo. Cool sounding names for food, RIGHT, LOL The Aushak was basically Ravioli in a gravy like sauce of ground beef, it was OK, so I give it 3 out of 5 , and I think it may have been better if I got some bread to eat it with, because it was more ground beef than Ravioli, so it may have gotten 4 out of 5. The Mantwo, that my friend got was even better. I bet she would have given it a 5 out of 5. I recommend this dish if you ever eat at The Helmand for the 1st time!! I wouldn't mind coming back here, as the service was very fast and friendly. In addition, beautiful Afghan style decor, paintings, and textile material adorn most of the walls of this place. There is definitely something "special" about this place, simply because its in Baltimore, but if it were in any other major city like LA or NYC, this place would simply be "a dime a dozen" LOL :) read more

A restaurant that has good quality food that comes out FAST and pleasant ambiance. The quantity is a bit on the smaller side, so an appetizer may be necessary. Without reservations on a weekend night, you WILL need to wait at least 40 minutes! You have been warned. The reason I'm only giving it a 4 is because it did NOT accommodate large groups as well as other places. I came with a group of +30 people and here were some negatives: - Everyone had to pay in cash (many of us had to go to the ATM across the street). - If you eat ANY dessert that you bring in (cake, cupcakes), even if for a birthday, they will charge $1/2 PER PERSON. Even if they don't give you any plates/utensils they will charge! - They gave us one check for the whole group, making it take a very long time to pay in the end. Thus, I recommend this place for small groups/dates. Not so much for larger groups. read more

Never disappointed. Delicious, savory, fragrant, romantic. We went to the Helmand to have a romantic pre-valentine's day meal...we weren't disappointed. We started with Kaddo Borawni-baked then pan-fried pumpkin, sweetened with sugar and drizzled with yogurt sauce. De-LICIOUS. flavorful. savory. sweet. so amazingly good. Then we moved on to entrees. I got a traditional lamb meatball dish...can't remember the name (maybe it was kofta challow). 2 large meatballs in a tomato sauce is overtly simplistic description. These balls were meaty flavorful and tender in a way that beef can never pull off. And the sauce had something interesting about it...cinnamon maybe? I don't know but it was tasty, not acidic, little bit sweet...delicious. We had "special" ice cream. Cardamon ice-cream encrusted with mango, dates and dried figs. chewy pieces of flavorful fruit, spicy cold sweet ice cream. not over the top, perfect with coffee. Outside of the meal, the service was not exactly awesome. Our waiter took a while to great us after being seated, then didn't come back to ask if we wanted more wine (which we did), and we almost cancelled our ice cream b/c I'm pretty sure he was in the back rolling silverware. In the end, the food is too good not to go back no matter what the service is like. read more

The ambience, service, and food here are outstanding. The restaurant itself is beautiful in its presentations from its decor to the music to the tiny candle on every table. I feel the staff takes great pride in working at The Helmand and I got a vibe that everyone was very happy to be there. Even when our candle blew out, someone came quickly to relight it for a lovely dining experience. To start, my friend and I had the Kaddo Borwani pumpkin appetizer. It was very unconventional looking, but it tasted delicious! The yogurt was so sweet, but is very addicting. I could've easily eaten two of the appetizers myself, loved it. For my entree, I had the Mantwo. It's described as a pastry so I was expecting a flaky almost hours devours type dish, but the Mantwo pastry shells texture was more like a dumpling, very soft and with filling. I had three sizeable shells that sat on top of a yogurt and meat sauce. I really just liked the yogurt in all the dishes, it's very unique. Overall, the dish was really yummy and really flavorful, which is what I love about middle eastern food in general. On the side I had rice with cilantro so mixing those flavors in with the Mantwo was really good. My only complaint is our table didn't get the complimentary naan. I don't know why, I thought every table received naan. I want to come back and try the lamb. read more

Very good food but veeery slow service on a busy night. We waited for a table for almost 30 min when we had a reservation, and then we waited for a long time for food, and then again after we gave our credit cards after we got the bill. Sigh. read more

I've been here twice now and it's one of my favorite restaurants I've found in Baltimore. Everything is wonderfully seasoned. I love the pumpkin appetizer. I also have ordered the Mantwo twice and both times it was delicious. We tried the meatballs and I liked how spicy they were. The ravioli also had great sauce (probably my favorite) although I didn't like the filling as much. The only negative was the dessert- we got the Afghan cheese with pomegranate and maybe it just wasn't our thing, but it was quite strange. I usually like "paneer"/Indian-style cheese but it just didn't seem right in sweet sauce. Overall I really like this place and I'm sure we'll be back. read more

I love a good piece of lamb, and Helmand didn't disappoint. A few of us ordered a bunch of different pieces, and there wasn't a bad meal in the whole bunch. Apps were good, meals were good, dessert was good, and the wine list was excellent. The place is little and feels like you've been invited to someone's house for a good holiday meal. Try to get into the inner room where the freezing winter won't come in and get you every time someone opens the door. read more

The Helmand is awesome. First of all, it's run by Hamid Karzai's brother - as in the current president of Afganistan's brother. So, you're eating the real deal when it comes to Afghan food and are dining at a semi-royal establishment. I went with a friend and we split the Kaddo Borwani (a pan-fried and baked baby pumpkin seasoned with sugar and served on yogurt garlic sauce) for the appetizer. It was really delicious. We also got a side of naan because I love naan. For entrees, I got Mantwo (home-made pastry- shell filled with onions and beef, served on yogurt and topped with carrots, yellow split peas and beef sauce) which was super good and my friend got Aushak (afghan ravioli filled with leeks, served on yogurt and topped with ground beef and mint). The prices are little high for my college student budget, so I would suggest bringing a bunch of friends and splitting a lot of dishes. It's definitely the only truly Afghan restaurant in Baltimore, so it is the best Afghan restaurant in Baltimore. Great for vegetarians and meat-lovers alike! read more

This is what every restaurant should be. I went with two friends on a pretty busy night (weekend plus there was a street festival about 1 block down) and, although we had reservations, we were seated almost immediately. I started with an order of naan and it was baked perfectly - arriving slightly fluffy and warm. The little individual sachet of butter with it left something to be desired but it was still good. It was a perfect size to share with 1-2 other people. They have a huuuuuge (for the area and Baltimore altogether ) vegetarian menu. I ordered their sampler and it was fantastic. It was a large plate with samplings of probably 8 or so dishes. One of my friends ordered a lamb dish and said it was great too. Tables are very close to one another and it was a little loud for my tastes but overall it's a great restaurant. Prices are also very fair for the area, food quality, and food quantity. I'll definitely be back. This is probably my new favorite place in Mt. Vernon! read more

My friend who is from Maryland told me about this place - one and only place she mentioned as "a must" restaurant. So last Friday night my husband and I decided to go and check it out. As new residents of Baltimore, we've been pretty disappointed with food here. I called to see if I could make a reservation (it was 6pm on a Friday) and thankfully I was able to get a table for 2 at 7pm. When we got there, we were seated right away. It was packed inside so I am glad we made a reservation. We had Appetizer: Banjan Borwani (pan-fried eggplant) - it was good but very small portion. Entrees: Mourgh Challow (sauteed chicken w/ yellow split peas & tomatoes) - it was pretty good - good portion, good sauce. We also got a beef tenderloin dish that was on the special menu (don't remember the name) and THAT WAS ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!! The beef was tender and moist and perfectly seasoned. (I'm drooling just thinking about it right now...) This was our first time having an Afghan cuisine and this restaurant is a definite keeper! Ahhh....Helmand brought a glimpse of hope in my pursuit of good restaurants in this city! read more

Really tremendous experience -- great good, amazing value. Same ownership as the Cambridge, MA location where I had my first Afghan food experience 13-14 years ago. Their take on Afghan is lighter than, e.g., the also great but different Afghan Restaurant in Alexandria, VA. read more

Food is delicious but WAY over priced! Nice ambiance. Good for a date.

Probably my most favorite restaurant in Baltimore City. All the dishes are so flavorable but still really balanced. The stuff they do with pumpkin and eggplants... mmmmmm read more

I would have never thought I'd like Afghan food until I came to this place. For appetizer, kaddo bowrani (baby pumpkin with yogurt & garlic sauce) is good. I would've never thought I'd like something like this. Kabobs are always done very well. I love the rice that they serve it with. The bread... oh I can eat a lot of the bread. It's a great place for dates and prices are reasonable, too. It's a pretty popular restaurant in Baltimore. The only thing you should keep in mind is that sometimes they rush you through your meal so that they can get more people waiting seated faster. I once was there in and out within 45 minutes. read more

I love restaurants that feel busy and homey. This is one of those. Six of us came to the restaurant on a friday night without booking. This, usually a sure way to get no food and results in walking up and down Charles street, turned out to be a great night. So, as expected, there were no tables available when we arrived. However, the host was very accommodating and asked us to leave a number before we set off to wonder Charles St. We got a call within 5 minutes and were told that a table was available. The food was great and everyone enjoyed themselves. Great vegetarian selections! The atmosphere, though not exactly the exotic feel you would expect, was cozy and warm. We liked this place a lot. It was busy which meant that service was just a bit on the slow side. Otherwise, we'd definitely be back again!!!! read more

There's a reason the Helmand is always rated best date restaurant. It's fancy without being over the top or too pricey, the food is always good and interesting, the atmosphere is cozy, and the service is impeccable. I read some other reviews that complained about the service and that is puzzling to me. My boyfriend and I were treated with such..royalty...that's the only way to put it...that I was beginning to wonder if our waiter mistook one of us for a celebrity. Unlike Shanae J, we were not charged for the bread brought to our table when we sat down, so perhaps that was a mistake. However, like Shanae, I am not that big of fan of the yogurt/garlic/mint sauces. I love love loved the Kaddo Borwani (baked sugar pumpkin app that everyone is talking about) but it is quite sweet. I almost wish I had it for dessert instead of before my meal. We ordered several other appetizers (it might have been a sampler platter), all of which were really good. I actually ended up enjoying them more than my Veggie Korma entree, which was decent, but I couldn't locate the sundried grapes in it. What really knocked my socks off was the cheescake-it was insane! I think it was a special that night, but ask if they have it if you're there. read more

Fantastic food that you simply canNOT find anywhere else, yet priced to compete with the most mundane TGIFreakin'Appleblechs, Helmand is not to be missed. Try the pumpkin appetizer. It will knock your socks off. Wine list is a bit uninspired, but really. So what? Given how unique, tasty and let's just say it--CHEAP--the food it, swallow the boring Chardonnay or Shiraz and move on to the next course. read more

Great mantoo!!! and pumpkin sauce. I loved the food and will def bring my bf back to this place. The best Afghan dumplings (mantoo) that I have ever had!!! I would def try both the pumpkin dish and the meat dumplings! So so good. read more

Over the years, i have taken a lot of friends to the Helmand. But I only bring a very specific type of friend. They are the ones that are slightly adventurous eaters, but not too adventurous. The food at the Helmand is essentially a sweeter version of what you would find at one of the many indian places all up and down the street. I have had several of their lamb dishes, and they have all been essentially identical so indian food. So if you have a friend that is willing to try indian food, but wouldn't be willing to try turkish food, then the Helmand is a good bet. They will feel adventurous, and you will feel like a good host. In other news, their decor is pretty awesome if you get seated in the main room. read more

Decided to try this place out during restaurant week, although once there it was clear that it made zero sense to order off of their RW menu. It was cheaper to order off the regular menu and you were able to get more interesting foods. Food was really, really good. Service left a bit to be desired but the place was packed so I'm just not sure they were prepared for the rush. I'd be interested in seeing how they do on a normal night and I'd certainly come back for the food alone. read more

Baltimore seems like this far away land, and I don't know much about it. We happened to be in the area and decided to eat, but I didn't have my computer with me, so I couldn't check good ole trusty Yelp! Yikes! Luckily we wandered to the adorable artsy part of the city where we happened upon The Helmand. Charming space! Great service! We weren't dressed in our best because we were post-golf, but they didn't seem to mind. At the same time, I would also feel comfortable in a cute dress here too. This was my first experience with Afghan food, but it won't be my last. YUM! I really enjoyed the lamb, and Jennifer M is right - I wanted to drink their cilantro sauce. Can they please open one of these in DC too? Please? If The Helmand is representative of B'more eating, then I want to go back to Baltimore soon! read more

When we first arrived at this place it felt a little awkward. It was packed, and my girlfriend and I stood at the door like schmucks for a few minutes before anyone came to help us. That was strange, and didn't make a very good first impression. But, when the head waiter (I believe so, anyway) came over he was very polite. We didn't have reservations, but that wasn't a problem, we just waited at the bar for a few minutes. The bartender was prompt, and friendly. They have a good selection of beer, but it would be nice if they had some sort of interesting ethnic drink. (I might be making a cultural faux pais here...I guess they haven't had drinking in Afghanistan in a long time...) The atmosphere of the place was great, very warm, lots of wood. Rugs and native-looking dress on the walls. A few pictures. All the waiters wore white tuxedo shirts. We were seated at a table among a long row of other two person tables along one wall, which was kind of uncomfortable. There were people right next to us on either side, and it was hard to talk without yelling, or listen without eavesdropping. Our neighbors didn't seem to mind, and no elbows were bumped, so I guess it was ok. The menu was good, with a good selection of interesting looking items, that I wish I could have tried more of. I had the Dwopiaza, and my girlfriend had another lamb dish. We had one of the eggplant appetizers, which was good, but only a tiny serving. The food came out pretty quickly, considering how full the place was. It was really good, and there was a ton of it. My girlfriend couldn't finish hers, even with a little help from yours truly. All in all, this was a nice place. A bit too crowded and noisy for a real romantic date, but a good time, and worth the money. I would go again, but would probably make a reservation on a weekend night. read more

What I liked - Overall the food was good, the menu offered a wider variety of choices than the standard Afghan eatery, aushak and mantu were hearty but I like the versions at my favorite Northern Virginia restaurants more. I had a lamb, mushroom, and spinach entree over rice. What I didn't - On a Saturday night, the place was packed when we arrived at 6:15 for a 6:30 reservation. We were seated 15 minutes later, but 30 minutes of standing in an overheated restaurant in a bar space as crowded as a Metro station at rush hour didn't put me in the best mood for dinner. The dining room is packed with most tables so close that weaving one's way about is challenge. Noisy, hot, and lackluster service - you can eat as well and more graciously elsewhere. read more

For my one year anniversary with my boyfriend, I decided we should ear here. I've driven by many times and was always curious, and with the good Yelp reviews I figured why not. Boy was I wrong. The food was simply meh. I got the vegetarian auschak and Bill got some soup. I got plenty of food. The little raviolis with minced veggies with pumpkin and yogurt sounds like a good idea...but when you season it heavily with mint (I think) it really confuses your mouth. Or at least it did mine. Maybe I wasn't prepared for this or maybe it really wasn't that good. Bill would not let me near his, and with good cause. We pulled over on 83 so he could rid his stomach of it. Service however was fantastic. Our waiter was friendly and helpful. Everyone working here was overal very pleasant! Would I give this place another shot? No. We weren't impressed enough. read more

If I could give an extra half-star, I would. Being able to reserve a table through Yelp is a huge plus, as upon arrival you will be surprised to see a packed house seating over 100 at any time. This place is where I pledge to take visitors to experience a taste of what Baltimore is like. Mint Yogurt in a dish of meat sauce over homemade bakery-style ravioli shells left me wondering why I was only now finding out about their menu [which sports Sea-Bass on weekends!]. Cramped quarters for small parties and short-hand staff are made up for with courtesy and Turkish coffee.

I went to the Helmand with a large group since we'd heard good things, and I ended up having a great time. I was a little unsure of what to order because I didn't know how to pronounce anything on the menu or even what it was. Nevertheless, I played it safe with a lamb kebab and had a very tasty meal. My lamb wasn't too spicy, as I was worried it might be, but it was still flavorful and full of punch. I also had an appetizer of what can be described as a beef dumpling or beef chicken pot pie which was very good as well. Our server dealt with our large party very easily and was very prompt and friendly. The atmosphere was quiet and relaxing--great for table conversation because I didn't have to yell over blaring music. The place was full of people and it was only a Tuesday night. I think I'd like to come back soon and try one of the more adventurous dishes. read more

I had the Duopiazza, which is rice with special seasoning and lamb. I really like the rice seasoning, which has a very unique flavorful taste. For desert I had Fereeny, which is a pudding with fruits. It was good, not too sweet, though nothing spectacular. Customer service was great. Quick and super polite. read more

Given the glowing reviews, I was a bit disappointed in my dining experience. While the food was good, I just would not put it in the "great" category. We started out with the kaddo borawni. While I am not a huge fan of pumpkin, the pumpkin comprising the dish was sweet and savory; however, the yogurt accompanying the dish was a bit too sour and detracted from the dish. For entrees, we had the chicken kabobs, lamb lawand, and koufta challow (meatballs). The chicken kabobs were nice and moist, but too salty for my taste. The lamb on the other hand, didn't have much flavor, although the sauce and the mushrooms accompanying the dish was quite tasty. The meatballs were yummy; however, only three meatballs were provided for the dish. The rice accompanying the dishes was wonderful - nice and fluffy. The naan was a little disappointing. I like the fluffy naan that you typically get at Indian restaurants, and the one provided at Helmand was a bit too chewy and thick. Service was solid and the decor was nice, with an ethnic feel. The value was decent - the total bill was ~ $30 per person with leftovers. Perhaps I came at an off night, but I found the restaurant just a little bit disappointing overall. read more

I had a really good time at the Helmand. I enjoyed the atmosphere and the food was delicious all around. My only real issue was with the speed of the service - that could use some work. We started with the Kaddo Borwani (pumpkin app) and it was by far the best thing we had all night. For dinner, three of us shared Mantwo, the Vegetarian platter, and a lamb special. Given the prices, I think the meals should come with their bread and it shouldn't be a separate expense. All of the entrees were good (A-) but we didn't order anything I HAVE to have again. I'm sure I will return but I'd like for them to work on their service. read more
