We've visited twice and enjoyed it both times. They are conveniently located near Johns Hopkins and there is a parking garage nearby.
The restaurant has a warm and inviting atmosphere, service was friendly and the variety of food choices has made it fun to try new dishes. Prices are reasonable too.
Nice food still. I am biased as I've been visiting multiple times once in a while. I like the sweetness of the turnips cooked in spices and raisins. The lamb is very soft. The mint sauce is a must try, if you like mint. It can go with the rice, the meat, or the soup.
We ordered carryout and when we got home there was an obvious problem. Way too much food for two humans to eat at one time! Their servings are very generous (which we appreciated!), especially for the price. Apart from that, everything was absolutely delicious. Surprising flavors. Thanks much.
Lovely restaurant, with takeout and dine-in options. Quiet and comfortable ambience, and no wait when I came in for an early lunch. The food is excellent, and I recommend that Kabuli pallow. Attentive and friendly service.
First time there. Went around 1:45 on a Friday, place was empty. I was ordering takeout. Very surprised by the ambiance of the interior as it was totally unexpected based on the exterior. The traffic on Wolfe street seems to hide this neighborhood gem. The hostess was super nice & explained the men
It was easy to find street parking on a Tuesday evening.
Ambience: spacious, clean and cozy. Was not crowded at all.
We got shorwa and shornakhod for starters and they were fine but nothing too special. For entree we got kabuli pallow and chicken kabob and they were both very flavorful. The meat i
So happy to have a small version of The Helmand near my workplace! The food is awesome. My favorites are the pumpkin appetizer (Kaddo Borani) and the rice bowl with lamb (Kabuli Pallow). The potatoe & chickpea salad (Shornakhod) is super tasty and you get a big portion for a small price. Prices in g

Thank you so much, MR. carthel🌟
First time visiting. The ratings did not disappoint! Just what I was looking for- tasty food! Yummy lamb, in & out super fast! Very polite & efficient service. Worth going out of my way to go uptown. I'd definitely return! The atmosphere looked attractive, but I had carry out. I must say, I had no
Wow!!! Delicious and flavorful food. I was in town for a meeting and our group dined at this restaurant and was it a delight. The food was so tasty and fragrant. We ate family style and had several choices. We had the grilled steak, lamb and chicken. The eggplant and pumpkin appetizers were great. M
One of our favorite spots in Baltimore. The Helmand in Mt. Vernon is amazing so we decided to try Kabobi for lunch & it did not disappoint. I’m obsessed with their naan bread & vegetarian ashak. The pallow is also delicious. We’ve had lunch there & ordered take out. Both were amazing.
I ate here solo on a recent visit to JHU. The food was delicious, seasoned lamb and rice. Interior clean and pleasant. Waitress was friendly and helpful with recommending dish. Very quick and efficient service. Reasonably priced.
If you want to be treated like family, get a lesson in wines (one you've never had before I promise) from a gentleman owner and eat remarkable food then this is the place for you. There would be few places that could be rated 5 stars if compared to Kabobi. This won't make your top 10 list, it will
Unexpected vegetarian delight! Really well seasoned blend of vegetables and rice. The sweet turnips were just the right touch to the spicy mushrooms and peas. Really wish we lived in Baltimore so we could enjoy their food again!
Excellent. Especially like the pumpkin and pepper appetizers, and the Kabuli Pallow. Get the latter with an extra side and it’s enough food for 2 people. The cardamom ice cream is wonderful. Take out rarely takes more than 15 minutes. I’ve ordered takeout at least 5 times and there’s always excellen
If you live in the area or work at Johns Hopkins hospital, DO NOT IGNORE THIS RESTAURANT !!
The Helmand on Charles Street is its heritage, and the food at this restaurant is simply divine as well.
If you have never had Afghani food or put off because it may have too many spices? Fear not.
