My wife, two kids, and I had a pretty good lunch. We had the trio sampler ($10), chicken tender kids meal ($8), fountain drink ($3), and a beef & chicken combo ($20). The total was $43 pre-tip. The portions for the price were pretty good. The chicken and beef were very juicy. The chicken tenders were devoured by our kids. The fries were really good! The bread dipped into the spinach and the sauce tasted awesome. We would definitely go back for more the next time we're visiting the Aquarium or Children's museum! read more

The Kabul - Chicken & Beef & Chicken Kabob Combo - Mediterranean Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

Visited this Inner Harbor location on an incredibly chaotic night and ate inside. Busy menu was a challenge, but able to order without any people waiting behind. Average customer service. Busy, loud interior but clean. Liked my gyro platter, as the combination of lamb, pita, rice, salad, and tzaziki sauce was tasty. Not memorable, but this place worked when others were overwhelmed with a lot of nearby police activity. read more

Haven't ordered from this place since leaving Harbor East for work in 2020, but today for an executive leadership program I decided to introduce the group to the Kabul's delicious food . Ppl ordered lamb gyros, chicken chili, falafel wraps, etc and had the entire room smelling like spices and goodness. The 3rd party delivery driver called me 30 minutes prior to my drop off time, which I'm not mad with because the earlier the better in my book. read more

I ordered takeout and got a lamb kabob meal. As I tore off a piece of pita, I saw a literal piece of Saran Wrap BAKED into the pita. I was appalled. I tried to call the restaurant to explain what had happened and asked to speak to a manager. I was not permitted to speak to the manager and there was no apology-I was just told to call DoorDash. This is no way to treat a customer. I'm disappointed to say the least and concerned about the safety of their food. read more

I've been loving The Kabul for takeout or delivery. I recently discovered their lamb shawarma and am hooked. I usually go more for chicken dishes but the lamb is just so flavorful. I recently tried the shawarma fries which comes topped with lamb, hot sauce, and a creamy sauce and it was SO good. The signature bowls remain one of my favorite items and usually last me a few days since the serving size is so generous. My only real complaint is I wish they would pack some of their to-go items more carefully. Specifically, the shawarma platters which come with choice of meat, fries, salad, and sauce all in a flimsy plastic dish. Depending on the delivery driver, the plastic dish is easily tossed around resulting in sauce getting everywhere and creating a real mess. I know it's not necessarily their fault if the delivery driver doesn't transport with care but I do think some better packaging or packing side dishes in separate containers would be nice. It'd also be great to see more compostable packaging being used instead of plastic. If you do opt for one of their platters, also know that it does come with pita stacked on top of it. This isn't mentioned in the description and being gluten free, I would've asked for it to be removed in the special instructions had I known. If cross contamination is a concern for you, maybe order elsewhere. read more

Delicious and amazing location!! Came here after visiting the aquarium and so glad I did versus something at the inn harbor. The staff were so friendly and helpful! It was also close proximity to the aquarium and the parking garage associated with it which made so easy with babies and toddlers. The kabob was seasoned so well and flavor. My favorite was the chick pea curry and my husband loved the pumpkin. Wish we took pictures but we were so hungry. It's also so clean and they cleaned the high chairs before we used them which I really appreciate. read more

This place use to be really good whether ordering in, to-go, or via a 3rd party app. Now I would only recommend ordering directly in store. The chicken bowl I ordered via uber eats was very disappointing. All the toppings weren't included and drowned in sauce. And the garlic naan wasn't good at all. read more

Despite waiting over thirty minutes for my food while my partner's food came within 10 mins. It was an overall great experience. I really enjoyed the tandoori chicken and was very tender. I would probably come back but make sure to take out since it took a long time for my food to get prepared despite my partner and I getting very similar meals. read more

We brought a school group to Baltimore today and ordered chicken wraps and fries for 27. Kabul Grill was so helpful in accommodating our large group. The kids loved the food and we really appreciated your hospitality. Thank you! read more

Got lamb over rice for take out, and chicken shawarma. The shawarma was pretty good and flavorful, but was surprised by the noni (afghani flatbread) instead of the Khubz (pita bread). The lamb over rice was also not bad. I was not a fan of the cheese based sauce, however. read more

Afghan classic! Today I tried the Kabul located by the power live in downtown Baltimore. The setting is nice as they have an area for indoor eating and an area to pick up as well. They are also open until 11pm so that was good too. I was able to order my food on the phone to which I ordered the tandoori chicken entree. I subbed out the salad for extra rice and bread and I'm glad I did that. The rice is sweet I think they cooked It with pumpkin. I liked It but some may want to opt for white rice. The bread is nice and soft and complimented the chicken. The chicken was a bit dry but still had great flavor and they give you three dark meat halves so you're getting a lot for $13 The lady was nice and attentive to my order as well. I will definitely order here again read more

The food is delicious. Flavor definitely pops out. While I'd like to give it 5, the fact of thr matter is they don't train their staff or even seems to notify them about yelp discounts. The cashier didn't know yelp, didn't know how it could be used. The lady I sited that it may work for online order. I'm like how that can be true if I got this offer based on checking i. read more

The Kabul - Salmon Grilled (I believe) - Mediterranean Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

My mom and I ordered the vegetarian platter off Uber Eats while visiting someone at Johns Hopkins. The food was delicious and relatively healthy, but felt like comfort food, in part because of the naan bread and seasoned rice. The cuisine is Afghan, and very similar to North Indian food in terms of flavor. The portion sizes are really large. The one recommendation I'd have is it would be nice if it were easier to substitute items, and also if the butternut squash was less sweet. I think it's supposed to be sweet but it was a little too much for us. But we generally loved the food and would absolutely order it again. read more

I got takeout from here and it was really good! The portions are large which is nice and it's really flavorful! I've walked past a few times and it doesn't seem like anything special in terms of the inside of the restaurant but I'm sure it's a decent vibe with decent service! read more

I was excited to taste this food because it's something different from the usual lunch fare. Sadly, the food was very average. Despite the fries looking well seasoned they tasted bland. I had the falafel wrap and it was average. Even the extra sauces were meh. read more

I wasn't super hungry when we came here for gunner and only got the potato bolani. It was okay - the dough needed better treatment, frying bubbles in tough dough is never a good sign and it needed more filing. But it was freshly made and the filling was pretty yummy. My coworker had the malai chicken and it blew us both out of our minds. The chicken was melting off the fork, the rice was so delicious and flavorful ( typical afghan style with raisins which means it's a little sweet). The place was quiet and empty when we came in, and it pretty spacious. I will happy be back - can't wait for Ragz to try it. read more

Decided to try one of ther lunch specials. I went with the gyro over rice. The lamb was tender & well seasoned. I enjoyed the gyro sauce also but was a lil disappointed that it didn't come with a little lettuce. I wouldn't mind eating this again and would like to try something different on my next go around. read more

I often find myself craving the Kabul, and every time I give in I'm never disappointed. Everything tastes fresh and the seasoning is always amazing. Prices are great and the portions are big too! Usually things are also done pretty fast. My favorite thing to order is the mixed Gyro Platter. I'm actually OBSESSED with it, the meat is so tender and the sauce is creamy and delicious. The chicken has the perfect amount of spice and is my favorite part of the dish! The other platters are good as well, but I've found the meat to be a little dry. The rice and spices in the meat combos make up for it though because they're amazing. I also love to order their samosas. read more

My first meal in Baltimore and it was a good one. The menu on the wall and the menu they gave me were semi different? So I used the menu they gave me and ordered the gyro platter. It came with lamb, rice, fries, hummus/pita, and a side salad. Everything was delicious. The inside was also really nice/spacious and the food came very quickly. I recommend. read more

I've visited this restaurant multiple times Ive been Baltimore and have had a number of their dishes: Hummus, Chicken Kabobs, and Chicken Tikka. The food is made to order, and always comes out piping hot. On my last visit, I burned my tongue on the tikka masala dish I was so impatient. The tikka was very rich, but oily. The spicy chicken kabob is marinated in jalapeños and cilantro. It isnt exactly spicy as it is tasteful. The basmati rich is mixed with carrots and raisins which is exactly how I had it in Afghanistan. When I first had this, in 2016 I was pleasantly surprised at the combination of the ingredients producing such a great taste. The hummus comes with bread and is always good. Depending on the cook, it either comes topped with a lot or little olive oil and saffron. The restaurant itself is a seat yourself, was clean on every stop in and inviting. read more

The Kabul - Lamb over rice, Chicken shawarma over rice, Green pea & potato curry, and Tandoori Bread! - Mediterranean Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

This is one of our go to spots for takeout. The price is downright reasonable and you get plenty of food for it. I usually get the lamb signature bowl. It is like a Chipotle bowl, but you don't choose this or that, it's assembled. It works for me because it has an insane amount of ingredients - Served with white basmati rice, spring mix, afghan salad, hummus, baba ganoush, banana peppers, and corn sauce with homemade ranch and tahini sauce. Sometimes I think it is even more than that. I have ordered the chicken curry and was not a fan. So, skip that. I usually order my toddler the pea and potato curry, he LOVES it. My husband thinks the chicken and rice bowl (which I do not see on their site but is on Doordash) is the best takeout deal available. It's like $8. read more

The food at this place is amazing, but the portions get smaller and smaller every time I order. I get there is inflation, but I feel like these days I need to order two of any items I want to get enough to make a meal of. To be clear, food is very very tasty. read more

Sooooooo delicious! Great portions and prices! Got the chicken shawarma platter, falafel platter, gyro fries, and bolani and soooo yummy! My personal favorites were the shawarma and the bolani, my fiance loved everything also. We got delivery so we didn't really experience the service or ambiance which I am sure were nice. Highly recommend! read more

Overall: uncomfortable completely silent dining and an annoyance to get into bathrooms for customers. Food: Portions were good. Expect nothing to come out at the same time, not too important but good to know if you have kids that fight when one has someone and the other doesn't. Decently spiced. Issues: no getting complete meal. I tried to ask for recommendations when ordering. I don't know if I caught them on a bad day but they seemed super grumpy and told me about the menu versus what was popular or with any friendliness. Owell. Atmosphere: uncomfortablely silent. Perhaps their radio was dead but it was so odd. Dining parties seemed to try to talk in hushed tones. It felt super weird. Parking: There is a parking garage next to the shop. I don't know if they validate, I didn't ask. Note: the bathroom code on the receipt isn't correct, you need to ask which is frustrating when they made a point to put it on a receipt. read more

I pass this place almost everyday. This is my second time visiting this establishment 7/24/23, in regards to my experience... Last time I dined in by myself and I enjoy the food, it was really tasty. However, as my first time I didn't know that certain drinks like the Lassi are premade and in the refrigerator. Given that my food was served and my drink wasn't I inquired after and I was told "it's in the refrigerator that's there". It seems the cashier is always the same one, Daniel. He chucked in a cute way at my question at that time and I brushed it off but it did bug me a bit because I'm an introvert but also love trying new cuisines and places, so sometimes interactions like that can have a negative effect. I know a lot of people like me, who don't go out by themselves at all because they fear these kinds of interactions. Since last year, I've taken myself to eat & order from many places to try different cuisines and styles, and I love writing so Yelp is a great tool for me to feel like I'm dining with someone as we share our reviews and post tips and pictures for others. With that being said, I think all restaurants should consider just a bit first time visitors or ask if they been at their establishment to improve their experience or assist them with any questions, etc... Food here is ABSOLUTELY delicious!!! This day I tried the Tandoori Chicken Tikka and the Firni which is the Rice Pudding! One of my top dessert for sure! You have to try it! ---- 8/15/2023 I visited yesterday to pick up my order which I placed through GrubHub and I got the Family Mix Platter for 2 which comes with Tandoori Chicken, lamb & kofta (the description says lambchops but those weren't in it, so not sure it's the same as kofta). I also got the Chicken Tikka Masala Currie, total plus a discount & taxes was $50. I picked it up 10m earlier than expected & it had just come out fresh. Costumer service by older bold man was really nice and considerate. My family was pleased! read more

Solid food. More Mediterranean than Afghan food, but still good. The rice is something I particularly enjoy and this was nice, but maybe missing a few key ingredients. You order at the front and they will serve you the food at your table. The inside layout is fine and the environment is chill. read more

Ordered take out from here and really enjoyed it! We got the chicken tikka masala which was good, pretty spicy. We also got the beef and chicken combo which was tasty. The seasoning is spicy, but delicious. Both were cooked really well, but I preferred the beef. It was good with the cilantro (I think?) sauce too. I think we would try something other than the tikka masala next time and keep with the beef or combo one. We also got the Bolani appetizer but they forgot the chutney sauce which was a huge bummer. The filling was incredible (probably my favorite thing I had), but the fried bread that encloses the filling was a bit too tough to actually eat. Would try the samosas next time as they are not fried. We also ordered the garlic naan basket which came with three big pieces of naan. Unfortunately, they gave us plain naan instead. Again, the bread was a bit too tough/chewy for me. I'm used to naan being a bit thinner. Overall, would definitely go back when the mood strikes, but would probably eat in to get the freshest and correct order. read more

And suggest you try this place. You won't be disappointed! read more

So good!! I was hesitant to order chicken Tikka masala from an Afghan restaurant lol but it's one of these things that I have to order when I see in any menu lol. I went in thinking I was going to get a lamb bowl but got this instead and it did not disappoint. It was made better than most places I have eaten at. It was made proper!!! The chicken was done right, the sauce was perfect. The nan was a little doughy for my taste was still not bad, maybe just preference. Highly recommend. Ohh and the baklava was legit!!!!!! Not super syrupy or drenched. It was perfect. Great meal overall. read more

The Kabul - Chicken Tikka malala - Mediterranean Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

I really like The Kabul and have been ordering from here for the past few years. My SO and I typically like to get a smattering of their vegetarian options (e.g., potato curry, spinach, chickpeas) and dips (hummus, baba ghanoush), with falafel and crispy fries on the side. There are only two things on the menu that I didn't really care for - the chicken wrap (a smidge dry) and the vegetarian aushak (a little sour for my taste). But as others have mentioned, once you find the dishes you like, the food is really reasonably priced and the bread is very well portioned for the dips. We always have enough for leftovers! To the owners of this location - thank you consistently feeding us yummy food for a great price in our happiest times and our hangriest times! read more

We were looking for something different for dinner an I thought we would try some Mediterranean food . I came appon The Kabul on 55 Market Pl. I ordered a Signature Bowl with Chicken. My brother oredered the Gyro plate. We both thought the food was outstanding . This is a very simple restaurant. You order your food at the counter, they give you a number and place at your table . Someone brings your food and time to chow down. When you see Middle Eastern people more than local people , I beleive your getting authentic Mediterranean food. Very clean restaurant and was pretty quite for an early Sunday evening dinner. read more

Holy smokes...tried this new place via grubhub and it was absolutely amazing, flavorful, and a lot of food. The Naan is HUGE! The Hummus blew my husband away. It was his favorite part. We will definitely order from here again and look forward to dining here when it opens. The spice in everything was not overbearing, it was perfect blend. Yum!! We had the chicken schwarma, gyro platter, Baclava, Hummus, Naan, and samosas. The only thing that missed the mark was potato samosas. They were bland, small and just not what I expected. read more
