The sauces were incredible. Lamb went well with rice. Not too dry. Firnee dessert was given as service - so sweet of them. I recommend eating the dumpling with both red and green chili as well as the yogurt sauce - in one bite makes a difference.

Delicious meat and rice 😋😋 Tea and dessert very good Family friendly restaurant, it’s big you can have nice seats. Halal food When we entered, the Quran was being recited, honestly that was so cool 👏👏 By the way, they are adding a service charge to your bill. Therefore, it might be a bit expensive. Thank you

Idek where to begin. From entering the restaurant, we were greeted with happy faces and big hugs by Ali and ahmed. I never met these fine gentleman in my life but it felt like i knew them my whole life. We were seated and we ordered Lamb chops and mix grill, beef mantu with salad. We asked to pray and they offered us an area downstairs, ( btw super clean). After we were done our prayers, food was ready on the table. Everything was so tender and full of flavor. We came a little late towards closing time so we were kindly asked to finish up, BUT they offered us FREE pudding as an apology for rushing us. We were basically done anyway, they also offered us homemade tea with huge hugs on the way out. Honestly i’ve been treated this way in my entire life with so much humility and kindness. This

Lovely Afghanistan restaurant with beautiful interior. We got the vegetarian platter, national dish (super tender lamb), lentil soup and the vegetable dumplings. Everything was super yummy (would just skip the Afghan nann). The lentil soup had such a unique blend of spices. The green tea with cardonmon was also great. The offered dessert on the house too. Great place!

★★★★★ 5.0 Brian Kang · Dec 2025

Loved this place. The kabob platter was generous, tender, and packed with flavor, and the rice was super aromatic. Everything tasted fresh and well seasoned, and the portions were more than enough. Service was kind and fast, and the staff made the whole experience feel welcoming. The atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable, good for both a quick meal and sitting down with friends or family. The dessert was amazing and easily my favorite part of the meal. Overall, great food, great people, and I definitely want to come back.
