The food was amazingly delicious, felt homemade and fresh. The service was excellent.
I had been to the sister restaurant Aracosia in McLean many times. We were in the Georgetown area and were excited to try this place and see how it compared, as Aracosia is one of our favorite restaurants in the DMV and the menu here seemed very similar if not almost identical.
Everything was mostly the same, such as the complimentary bread and dipping sauces. I believe it is the best complimentary bread I have had anywhere and there are even very few breads I have paid...read full review

The service here is incredible. Incredibly kind, patient, and knowledgeable staff. They will give you their personal recommendations and their dessert at the end was so nice. It is fine Afghani dining-my first time trying Afghani food and…. i was blown away. My gosh, support this place-everything is exquisite.

Afghania is a delightful restaurant that offers a warm and cozy dining experience with a wide array of choices for carnivores, vegetarians, and vegans. The service is thoughtful and attentive, and the atmosphere is enhanced by the traditional decor. While the stairs to the second floor may pose a challenge for the less mobile, the ground floor seating provides a comfortable option.
The menu features a variety of delectable dishes, including the vegan pumpkin dumplings and Afghania salad, as well as the lamb shank entrees, which are especially delectable and often result in leftovers. The mocktails, such as the sour cherry/lime and cranberry/orange libations, are light and refreshing, making them a great option for those who are sober-curious. The meal is capped off with the airy slices of chocolate and almond cake.
Overall, Afghania is a fantastic dining destination that offers a memorable experience with its flavorful dishes, attentive service, and cozy atmosphere.
