About Maiwand Kabob

Maiwand Kabob opened in the fall of 1999 on a quiet corner in the heart of Columbia, Maryland. As Columbia's very first Afghan restaurant, it was envisioned as a quaint, family-owned eatery with one simple goal: to provide generous portions of fresh Afghan food at moderate prices. Since our modest beginnings, Maiwand Kabob has slowly and thoughtfully expanded to four locations to better serve and accommodate our customers. Maiwand Kabob has been consistently honored for its great taste and value. We have been recognized in the Baltimore Sun and the Washington Post and have been awarded the "best cheap eat" in Howard county. We proudly offer a great variety of authentic Afghan dishes. From our succulent kabobs to our tandoori bread and mouth-watering rice pudding, we are sure to satisfy even the most sophisticated palate. We believe in freshness and authenticity, and as such, our wide selection of tender kabobs are marinated daily in a variety of traditional spices and seasonings. Cooked to order, our food is prepared fresh from scratch using only the finest quality ingredients. We offer daily lunch specials, dine-in, take-out, and catering for any occasion. We will be delighted to cater your next dinner or event!

Great food. Got to stop by while going through town and had the lamb chops and lamb kebab platters. Lambchops were pricey and the portions were small but the food tasted great! Wish I tried the chicken kebab.

This location is usually busier than one at BWI, but the service is still efficient. Food quality is also good and tasty.

This is the only Maiwand I go to eat. Good food, fair prices, and good service. They are not stingy with the chutney...bonus points! They cook fresh, so be prepared to wait 20 min or call on the way.

If you've seen the way I gamble with my swings, you might assume that I'm down at Arundel mills gambling all the time. Well I am in the Arundel mills area often, but not to gamble. Instead its because of Allah rakha and this place: maiwand kabob. Mad props to the owner for being one of the first Desi uncles (technically afghan) to modernize the kabob joint restaurant model. Kabobs are delicious. Negatives- takes a while for them to make the food, even I'd you call ahead. And it's a little pricey. But you will never be disappointed.

I agree with the other reviewers, the place is a nice clean setting. The food is very good. I stopped here on my way to and from Pennsylvania. I first had the curry chicken entree, it was so delicious! On my way back I tried the chicken kabab and it was so good (and tender too)! InshAllah I will definitely be back!
