I had a wonderful experience at City Kabob! The buffet was delicious with so many authentic options, and everything tasted very fresh. A special thanks to the manager, who was very kind and welcoming. The service was excellent. Highly recommended for anyone looking for great food.

Great place with delicious, authentic food. I got the city kabob special, which everything was amazing and full of flavor, and the lamb kadai, which very tender and great portion. Cant wait to try the rest of the menu.

The food was incredibly fresh, clean, and delicious. The customer service was outstanding, making the entire experience even more enjoyable. Yasir and his father went above and beyond to be helpful, ensuring everything was perfect. Highly recommend.

I have been visiting this restaurant for 6 years now. I have always been received here with love and respect. The food quality is always top notch, the portions are always satisfying. Seating area is always clean. Buffet is reasonably priced and the variety of food options is great. A great place for vegetarian and non-vegetarian food lovers. Chickpeas masala, veggie bhajia and Mango lassi are my all time favourites......This is my first recommendation over any other Indian/Pakistani/Asian restaurant. CHEERS.

Overnighting in DC as a family of seven, when in your thinking I was going to have to order some complicated dishes that my kids wouldn't understand but it was all take and Away to go dishes so I just grabbed about eight different dishes filled to the brim and the guy gave me a fair discount because of the large purchase. The food was tasty and everyone went to bed with a full stomach

I was on a visit to DC from Boston with family, and found this place for our dinner. Food was so delicious. Of course Lamb Biryani was awesome. I definitely recommend to others and will visit for sure in future.

I had my food delivered through DoorDash, it arrived piping hot and was delicious. I got the butter chicken, garlic kulcha and variable pakora. The vegetable pakora was a bit bland but I’ve never had Indian food and have nothing to compare it to, the sauces to eat it with were good! The butter chicken and garlic kulcha were amazing, great portion sizes for the price, I have half left for my next meal. Overall I’m very pleased, I will be back!

Gabs W.

Come hungry! Prices are good and there is a wide variety of dishes to try. They keep the place clean, food hot and are patient with customers. The Saag is a spicy chefs kiss

We being a tourist and finding a good halal food was really tricky. This food stop was incredibly tasty and delicious. They have ample car parking space as well. The staffs were also very friendly and peaceful.

FATHIMA S.

We had the buffet dinner and it was so worth it. Not only was the food delicious but the service was amazing. You can tell the owner and cooks love what they do and it’s translated in the food. 100% coming back.

I just want to take a moment and thank the Staff an all the attention and care they provided while helping me with a catering order. The service was truly the best, hands down! They took the time to answer all my questions about the menu and made the entire process so easy and enjoyable. You really made this such a great experience. Highly recommend this Place!
