A Must-Visit for Authentic Afghan Cuisine
The Afghan Kabob House is an absolute gem! The owners truly care about their customers and go above and beyond to ensure a memorable dining experience.
The food is simply incredible. Every dish is bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. We especially loved the lamb kabobs, bolani, mantu. Honestly, you can't go wrong with anything on the menu – it's all a must-try!
Pro tip: Go with a group so you can sample a variety of dishes and share the deliciousness.
The service is top-notch, and the ambiance is cozy and inviting. I can't wait to return for another fantastic meal. Highly recommend!

Incredible Afghan food and amazing service!
The kabobs were perfectly grilled, the Qabuli Palao was bursting with flavor, and the naan was fresh and delicious. The staff was super friendly and made us feel right at home. Portions are generous, and the prices are great for the quality. If you're in Downey, this place is a must-try!

Great to see a new Afghan restaurant in socal. I really enjoyed the beef and chicken kabobs, and found their bolani to be the closest I've had to homemade. I learned that Chapli kabob is now available (but not on the menu yet) and I look forward to trying it. Overall we experienced great service and food with a promising menu that will continue to grow. Although Downey is far for some, catering is an option.

The food was freshly prepared and was delicious. I especially loved the Kabuli pulao and beef mantu. The owners are also very kind. I cannot recommend this place enough. We will definitely be back to dine in and cater events.

Finally after 28 years of living in SoCal I found an Afghan restaurant worth recommending. Everything we had (bolani mix potato leek, qabuli, lamb kabob with naan) was phenomenal. We’ll be back! 💕
