All the food is amazing, the rice however just takes the show. Food is served freshly prepared and delicious and that’s why it may take a little wait but so worth it. I could eat here all the time because it’s delicious and healthy

Very friendly restaurant felt very welcomed. I had the mantoo veggie, had lots of flavor and was just enough to curb my hunger. Was very light on the stomach. Would recommend if you’re looking for a taste of afghan with friendly service

It’s a really great afghan restaurant in the heart of town. Really humble owners, food was delicious and authentic. The quality and quantity of the food for the price was also great. I went there 2 times and will go again when in the area.

Great place! Very authentic experience! Service was fine, just a little awkward. Definitely recommend this place though. We tried the triple meat dish. Loved it!

This place deserves ten stars for one dish alone: the Qabili Palaw, a magically braised lamb shank hidden under dirty basmati rice and stewed carrots and raisins. Served with a side of stretchy flatbread and a small cup of tangy green sauce, the lamb completely steals the show. Touch it with your fork and plates of melt in your mouth ruddy, juicy, lamb-y meat sloughs off and awaits scooping. The subtle saltiness brings out every molecule of delicate meaty flavor without a hint of gaminess or toughness. This is absolutely the most masterful preparation of any meat I have ever had. The poor green sauce sits neglected and forlorn despite it’s wonderful balance, simply because I can’t bear to sully the unforgettable experience of this meat.

We tried the place the first time. Women owned and cooked. We ordered thee chicken combo meal. Meal was cooked fresh from scratch. The chicken was super flavorful, rice smooth as butter, salad was delicious, and mint chutney was not spicy and full of flavors. One cons would be the bread were not fresh, wrapped up in plastic, and hard to chew. Maybe that’s how it is. I would let go of the criticism of the break in front of the rest of the food. Desert phirni was cool, little less sweet (that’s how I love it) and topped with pistachios. Overall we had a feeling of eating home cooked meal in a long time, and left there stuffed unable to walk in a food coma. Definitely worth trying. What we didn’t knew was you could place order ahead of time of the phone and have it ready on walk in to save time.
