★★★★★ 5.0 X Mendoza · Jan 2026

Absolutely amazing experience at Afghan Shams Restaurant! The food was beyond delicious—full of flavor, fresh, and beautifully prepared not to mention everything is made to order! Everything we ordered was incredible, and it was so good that I had to meet the chef to personally thank them both! The customer service truly stood out as well. The two young ladies working in the evening there were so kind, attentive, and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. You can really feel the pride and care they put into both the food and the service. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for great Afghan food and excellent hospitality. We’ll definitely be back!

We had a wonderful experience from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious and served in satisfying portions. The team was warm, welcoming, and attentive throughout our visit.

★★★★★ 5.0 Richard Miranda · Jan 2026

First time having this type of food. Omg it was amazing. The lamb was so tender and great with the rice. Huge bread and beef was like nothing I have ever tasted. They are my first choice to go to for a great meal. Oh then they brought over some black tea. And that was like topper to a great night. Fully enjoy every part of the experience. Eat here. I highly recommend it

Everything was excellent; food was tasty, portions were generous, and staff was very friendly.

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Bessai Parmach · Dec 2025

The food is very bland. No flavor No taste. Definitely not Afghan Food. The Chapli kabob was burned. Everything was missing salt. Wait time is over an hour… The food is halal but they need to hire an Afghan chef asap or they’ll lose a lot of customers. Staff is very friendly but they have no experience in restaurant business. Very disappointed ☹️
