As you walk into Arlington Kabob, you’re immediately greeted by the irresistible aroma of a charcoal grill and the promise of mouthwatering Afghan dishes. The food does not disappoint, earning top marks for its always impeccably cooked, brilliantly flavored Chapli kabobs, lamb chops, and Quabli lamb shanks. These are best complemented by fresh spiced chickpeas and spinach. Health-conscious diners will appreciate the restaurant’s range of low-carb options, which allow for substituting rice with a bed of salad or other vegetables—though resisting the complementary Afghan bread could be your biggest challenge. But what truly sets Arlington Kabob apart is the exceptional service, led by Manager Syed. His keen attention to detail and warm, welcoming demeanor transform every visitor from a mere customer into an honored guest. He is a true ambassador of hospitality. All in all, if it’s outstanding Afghan food you’re craving, look no further than Arlington Kabob.

So the food here is absolutely delicious. We have ate here about 3 times in the last 2 months. My husband is from Sweden and has a hard time finding a good kabob in the US with good sauce. This is his new fav! The naan is good and everything is made fresh so if you order depending on the size of your order it may take up to 20 min, but definitely worth it!!

Very friendly and attentive staff, the kebabs are delicious !!! Kobidah is alright. Lentil soup tastes authentic, would definitely come again when in the DC area. The naan is served hot and fresh so yum. Also really affordable, meal for 2 was 30$ with huge portions. They also provide green tea with cardamom on the house- it’s delicious.

The service was good and the supervisor there was very attentive to every other customer that was there. The food though, was underwhelming for the price. I ordered the chicken with beef and they gave a good amount of rice, naan bread, an average amount of chickpeas but, the meat though, was thin cuts. For the price I paid, I would expect a hearty amount meat but again, that wasn’t the case. Just like most hole in the wall restaurants in Arlington, the parking is really a con, be mindful of that. I would say though, try them out regardless of my experience.

So damn good! I can competitively eat this food. My partner and I get the meal for 2 and we gorge ourselves and still have enough for lunch tomorrow. High level with good customer service. Don’t change anything.

I found out about Arlington Kabob via my algorithm on TikTok! I took the trip from DC to try it out. Remarkable! Everyone was extremely friendly and the food was authentic, fresh, and filling.

Delicious combo platter for two and a lot of food for a great price. I love that they gave two pieces of naan and 2 of each sauce. Highly recommend the meat was very tender.

So delicious! Food came out quick and the quality was top tier! The staff was nice and friendly. The price was totally worth it. My boyfriend and I shared the plater for two and we split evenly. Would definitely come back and recommend. Dont forget to try the baklava!

For a no frills, meat experience, you are unlikely to be disappointed. This is more a take away place. Even so, we had a sit down and were delighted with a very attentive and helpful staff.
