Afghan Restaurants in St. Louis, MO

“This place is incredible. Uma and her staff are so sweet, and the food is OUTSTANDING and incredibly delicious. Do not sleep on this spot! The Eggplant Bandinjan is phenomenal and so tender, with a pinch of yogurt and mince to finish it off and brighten the dish. The mantu, tender dumpling stuffed with ground seasoned beef, carrot, and onion, topped with yellow lentils, yogurt sauce and mint and parsley… Words cannot describe the culinary experience. The chicken kebab is by far, and hands-down, the best kebab I have had in St. Louis. It is robustly seasoned to perfection, grilled to perfection, succulent, tender and juicy. I have also had the tikka masala, lamb kabob, and beef kabob- all are excellent. Don’t forget dessert!“

“When I walked in, the inside felt a bit homey since there were some Afghan decorations including the flag of Afghanistan. The mantoo dumplings were delicious, but I felt like the bread was not necessary since there was not enough sauce to justify it. Despite that, I still enjoyed eating there and the staff were pretty friendly.“
