Part of my family is Pakistani and Ravi Kabob is our "go-to" spot for a quick fix. I recommend the Chicken Tikka (bone-in, because it has more flavor) with rice and chickpeas on the side. The naan is heavenly but I'd pass on the samosas. I would call in your order because the wait is always long AND if you... more

Excellent kitchen, excellent quality. Warning: The flavor is not like the typical persian kabob houses. A little spicier. more

I've lived in the DC metro area all my life (arlington for the last 10 yrs). I've tried all the kabob places around and consider myself a "Kabob expert" Ravi Kabob is the best and is packed for a reason. This place is a sort of a hole in the wall so don't take a date there. Do yourself a... more

Like all great hole-in-the-wall places to eat, popularity has ruined this place. Well, not really. Food is still good. But they raised their prices and there's always a line. Try the curry. Try the karahi. more

Ravi's is a decent kebab place, but I'd stick to what they are known for: chick peas, chicken karahai, and kebabs. Not everything on his menu is worth trying. As for the restaurant, its packed on the weekends so I would order for take out, and I wouldnt recommend this place for a date. There's not much in the decor.... more

Great! Perfect take-away kabobs. Better than Kabob Palace in Crystal City. This is now my favorite place for kabobs, and it doesn't hurt it is less than 2 miles from my place! I always hit the carryout only, have never gone to the restaurant place across Glebe. Lamb kabobs are classic with a great marinade. They offer a salad rather... more
