“Went to this place on Friday, customer service was excellent and the food was exquisite. Will be going back for sure.“

“The lamb in qabili palaw was tender and could be cut with fork. The curry was spicy but not over the top. All dishes well seasoned and attractively arranged even though takeout. The long grain rice and bread were also very tasty.“

“I never been there, but it any place that makes gyros with lamb is awesome“

“delicious food and good customer service“

“The food tasted great and customer service was great. What i did not appreciate was the fact that we went to the buffet and my teenage son wanted to treat us well not knowing they had a table with dessert we asked if for everyone with buffet they said yes. When my son went to pay what was supposed to be $60 for 3 buffets was $85 because each item was individually priced on the dessert. Also they ran out of the meat that his friend enjoyed eating so he didn't get the full enjoyment of the buffet. They stated they would make sure not to run out we could come back tomorrow but at $85 that is way too much.“

“Wow ! Very professional and nice atmosphere, very nice owner. They make sure to make it just right. We traveled from San Diego with our family and came here to eat, delicious food . They take very well care of their customers. Great customer service . The customer service is above and beyond. Thank you.“

“This is my favorite restaurant in the Rancho Cordova/Folsom area. I’ve tried most of the Persian and Afghan restaurants in the area and this is my favorite. The mantu dumplings amazing 🔥🔥🔥 The lamb chops are perfectly seasoned and cooked every time, the beef kabobs are tender and packed with flavor, and the chicken biryani is rich, aromatic, and balanced. The naan is fresh, warm, and some of the best I’ve had. The white/green/red sauces are incredible and ties everything together. On top of the food, the service is consistently top tier —
attentive, welcoming, and professional. Highly recommend.“

“The owner is a friend of mine and having been to Afghanistan I can assure that the food is authentic, delicious and the atmosphere very hospitable.“

“I have been a regular at Watan Halal Market and they never disappoint! Their fresh calf meat is always top quality, clean, tender and perfect for cooking. The meat I recently bought (pictured below) is a great example of the freshness and care they put into their products. We have also tried several local pizza places, including Twist, but my kids always prefer Watan’s pizza. It’s flavorful, well made, and perfect for family nights. Highly recommend Watan Halal Market for both your halal meat needs and a delicious pizza treat!“

“Alhamdulilah good food and friendly staff“

“I don't know, some food is amazing like the Donair, however the falafel was so old, maybe made in the morning. Do not re heat falafel it's nowhere near as good, cmon man. Shop was also randomly closed today with no warning. Please use Google maps to update your hours and closing/opening times. And post it for people. This can be a very successful restaurant if managed properly. Best of luck to you and your family. I will be back for the kabobs.“

“Fresh Medi’s banquet hall is stunning. It’s beautiful and bright, allowing the space to be magically transformed. The hospitality and service from the team here is top notch. We can’t wait to create here again at this stunning venue ✨“

“The ice cream here is unbelievably creamy and full of real flavor. You can tell they use high-quality ingredients because every scoop tastes fresh and natural. The staff is friendly, and the shop always feels clean and inviting. Highly recommended!”“

“Afghan Fiji on 5950 Florin Rd in Sacramento is truly a hidden gem! From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed with such warmth and genuine hospitality that I immediately felt at home. The atmosphere is inviting, clean, and full of positive energy — a perfect place to relax and enjoy an amazing meal.

The food? Absolutely outstanding. Every dish was rich in authentic Afghan flavor, perfectly seasoned, fresh, and beautifully presented. You can truly taste the quality in every bite. The ingredients are fresh, the portions are generous, and everything is prepared with care and passion.

The entertainment and overall vibe make the experience even more special. It’s not just a restaurant — it’s an experience. The atmosphere brings culture, comfort, and joy together in such a beautiful way.

And the chef deserves special recognition. He is not only incredibly talented, but also one of the kindest and most humble people you’ll meet. You can feel his love for cooking and his respect for guests through his amazing food and warm personality. He personally made the experience unforgettable for me.

If you are looking for authentic Afghan cuisine, exceptional service, high quality food, and a welcoming environment, Afghan Fiji is the place to go. I highly recommend it and will definitely be coming back again and again!

Thank you for such a wonderful experience!“
