I am a regular here! Have been for 3 yrs and I am yet to go away unhappy. Best vlue for money is their combo deal; recomend the lamb & chicken combo.
If ypu are not too perticular about the dining area, this the best Kabarb place around these parts. They now have locations in Springfiled and Tyson's Corner as well.
Very friendly people and food is fabu!

Charming, friendly, neighborly ambiance and service. Staff truly wants people to enjoy their meals. Abundant portions, e.g., huge/tasty gyro platter feeds you well and provides leftovers. Many great vegetable side or main dishes. Save room for dessert!

The unassuming name of this location does not do justice to the amazing food to be found within. The servers are very willing to assist newcomers who are unfamiliar with the names of the different kabab items, and if you are eating on site, they will not allow you to pay until after you have eaten and enjoyed your food. They ask if you enjoyed the meal, and it is very obvious that if you did not like it you would not be allowed to pay. But that is a moot point as the chances of you not liking the food are nil. The kababs are grilled right in front of you, the rice is perfectly cooked and not the least bit sticky, and vegetarian options abound. The fresh baked baklava is to die for. The aromas of the food, combined with the wonderful music that is constantly playing make the entire experience something to enjoy, not just the food. Overall an excellent value and a wonderful place to eat.

Food Corner Kabob has the best authentic Afghan cuisine that you can find. Ambience is more in the Afghan flavor than the American standard, so those who aren't aware of the distinction should realize that the quality and quantity of the food makes up for a serve-yourself environment. Lamb, chicken, beef, etc. hands down these are the best kabobs you'll find...and the freshly baked Afghan bread is incredible! Portions are HUGE...and food is always fresh. All meats served are said to be Halal...Muslim folks, check zabihah.com for details.

Food was a little oily but pretty flavorful. Will return.
