Customer Reviews
Very small and popular place. Every seat was taken and they were already telling people they were booked for the night at 5pm on a regular, cold winter weekend. Reservations are a must. Food is excellent, service is good. Tell them about your food allergies early - they will tell you if they can accommodate. Parking can get tight considering how popular the restaurant is. Can do takeout.
It had been a while since we ate at Afghan Bistro, so I suggested a small group of us meet for lunch there. We arrived just after the restaurant opened, so it was quite empty, but it filled up rapidly as the afternoon wore on. It is obviously a popular place. We had a very pleasant and efficient server. She answered our questions and did a good job while we were there. My friends ordered the Sabzi Chalou and Chicken Breast Kebob, while I got the Lamb Chops. The chops came with rice with carrots and raisins and a side of Eggplant. Overall a delicious dish. The food was fresh and tasty. After lunch, we ordered some cardamom tea. I enjoyed the tea as it was light and fragrant. We were all happy with our meal and would definitely eat there again.
The food is great! Every thing we had here was so good! The lamb was the most tender we've ever had and the flavors in the carrots and eggplants complimented the lamb perfectly.
The food and service was a 10/10! I got the lamb shank which was so delicious, the meat just fell right out, I ordered the cardamom tea with the Cardamom Milk Cake and it was the best cake I’ve had in a while! Literally so happy I came across this hidden gem. It’s a very small restaurant so I wouldn’t come with a large group. It’s a little cold so bring in a sweater!
What a wonderful little restaurant. This was our first time eating here. Our waiter, Jacob, was very helpful explaining the menu and making recommendations on what dishes were popular. The food was very, very, good. We ordered the appetizer sampler and then shared two entrees, a lamb shank and a chicken & greens stew. They were a nice compliment to each other. Can't wait to go back
