End of an Era – Afghan Grill has closed


2309 Calvert Street, NW

“Dear PoPville,

I stopped by the CVS at the corner of Connecticut and Calvert the other day and saw some workers actively taking down Afghan Grill’s signage. Their “open” neon sign was lit though! Any idea if they are closed for good or, hopefully, just replacing their old signs with new ones?”

I stopped by over the weekend and the space has been completely cleaned out:

There phone has also been disconnected.

Back in June of 2021 we posted that “the owner said they’re a few weeks from closing if their fortunes don’t improve”.

Updates when we learn more.

“Afghan grill serves the finest middle eastern and mediterranean dishes in the Washington D.C area since 1981. We serve a variety of different Afghan favorites, including the finest and most authentic kabobs. Not to mention many regional dishes such as our critically acclaimed pumpkin, and chicken!”

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
