★★★★★ 5.0 Jayna Paulson · Dec 2025

What a fantastic place so close to where we live! I LOVE ethnic food. I am so sick of the typical American junk - pizza, fries, stuff like that is not even food to me. This was real, authentic afghan food with complex and exciting flavors. We got lamb kebabs and lamb gyro, both over a salad. Delicious home made sauces on the side. The meat was so delicious that we ordered an extra side. Fauzia even brought us a taste of home made soft and fluffy cheese paired with raisins after our meal. I could tell right away the raisins were imported from Afghanistan because of the amazing flavor. Nothing in the USA tastes like that anymore. I highly recommend and we can’t wait to go back!

★★★★★ 5.0 Russell and Jenni Grubb · Jan 2026

Really tasty Afghan food with bold, comforting flavors. It was my first time here and they were very patient helping me through the menu. I landed on two different appetizers, manto and samosa and then the kofta kabob and a lamb gyro, with two different rice dishes on the side. The baklava was fantastic as well. The service was great and surprisingly quick, even for a takeout order. The atmosphere is modest, with table seating near market shelving, but the quality of the food and friendly service more than make up for it. Will definitely be back

Got take out earlier this week and it was quick and delicious! We got the kofta kebab and Zarashk polaw with the lamb. Both types of rice were flavorful and fragrant, and the meat was excellent. Hope to come back and try more someday!
