Charcoal Kabob House: Tasty Mediterranean Fare

Just a short trip from BLVD l Loudoun Station in Herndon, Charcoal Kabob House is a Mediterranean restaurant that is famous among regulars for its signature kabobs. The tender lamb kabob seems to be the favorite kabob, but Charcoal Kabob offers other quality meat selections like chicken and beef. If you order a kabob, you also get vegetable curry, freshly baked naan bread, Basmati rice, and a salad. The prices may be a bit high, but you’re getting a large portion of authentic, quality food. Customers rave about the perfectly seasoned chickpea side and creamy, refreshing yogurt dip. A twenty-minute wait is common for Charcoal Kabob, but the cooks prepare dishes with a tandoor and use hickory charcoal (hence the name!) for an authentic, healthy taste. If you don’t have a lot of time, skip the kabob and instead choose the curry. It's all worth the wait!
