Ordered the Qabili chalau lamb shank and it was freshly made and delicious.

Food was delicious, the kabobs were very soft and full of flavor. The rice was very good too. Most importantly the customer service was excellent! the server walked to the utensil area and grabbed us utensils and also was really friendly to us asking us how the food was after we finished. The cashier was also very kind to us.

If you're looking for authentic Afghan flavors in the heart of Santa Clara, Fremont Kabob is a must-visit! We ordered a delicious spread that included Bolani, Hummus, and Salad — all incredibly fresh and bursting with flavor.

For our mains, we had the Veggie Korma-e-Nakhud, Veggie Borani Badinjon, Korma Chicken, Lamb Curry, and the Family-Style Kabob Plate. Every dish was freshly cooked and had that distinct smoked BBQ flavor that took the experience to the next level.

The owner was exceptionally friendly, personally checking in to ensure everything was to our liking. He took time to ask about my dietary needs and was very careful and considerate about my allergies — that kind of attention means a lot.

The restaurant is clean, spacious, and located in a safe and easily accessible area right off Great America Parkway. Whether you're vegetarian, a meat lover, or simply a foodie looking for something memorable, this place is worth every bite!

Solid spot. Pricing is a bit higher than expected, but guess that's just inflation and living in the bay. I've had Afghan food before, but tried Korma Lamb for the first time and was not disappointed. The lamb shank was fork tender, juicy, well seasoned and a wonderful culinary experience. The juices went well with the rice
and chickpea side balanced with the flavors really well.

Stopped at the Santa Clara site after a 49'er game, had the Borani Kadoo. So delicious! The hummus was excellent too, and the people were so nice. Next time I'm in the Bay Area I will definitely come back.

Delicious Afghani food,. Dishes came out quickly and plentiful. Excellent myriad of flavors. Eatery was a little small, and seating was standard. Good place for a quick bite, but the parking lot can be very congested.

This was my family's first taste of Afghani food and we really enjoyed it! The girl working the counter was sweet and the music gave an authentic feel. We found the food to be very flavorful and a welcome change from our normal routine. Try the Afghan style pot stickers for sure. I could only get a photo of one before it disappeared.

Food: absolutely amazing, it’s one of my favorite places for Afghani food around. I have tried so many different dishes and quality and taste is great

Service: almost every single time they mess up my to-go order. Once I paid for different rice still give me the default one. Other time I ordered Carrots and raisins in top of the rice, they charged me for it but did not do it.

The big disappointment is tips do NOT go to the server. That is a complete disappointment to be honest

Again, even with that, I’d still recommend this place. It’s one of the best places around

FAQ

The food quality was pretty average at best, compared to several other afghan restaurants I’ve been to. The food is pricey and the portion sizes were quite small.

Rice eating Asian man here. I’m VERY impressed with the lamb kabob. This is the best place I’ve ever eaten in the Bay Area. It’s an unassuming looking place but the food— WOW.

The customer service was really disrespectful. It was not worth the trip for us to dine here after traveling from Sacramento. The dish is pricey; even after paying more than $20, you won't even be satisfied. When the food is brought, it is not the same as what is described on the menu. I recommend not visiting this restaurant.
