I recently visited Kandahar Kabab in Pickering, drawn by its reputation for flavorful Afghan cuisine. The menu offers a wide variety of grilled meats, rice platters, and traditional sides, with standout items like the Chicken Tikka Kebab, Chapli Kabab, and Lamb Shank. The portions were generous, and the meat was well-seasoned and cooked to perfection. The Mango Lassi was a refreshing complement to the meal.

Food was delicious, must try
came to this restaurant to order some food, but almost everything I asked for was unavailable. I asked for fries — they were out. I asked for rice — they were out. At that point, I had to wonder: if you don’t have the basic items on the menu, why are you open?
A restaurant should have the food it offers on its menu, or at least let customers know what is actually available before they order. Very disappointing experience.

Kandahar Kabab serves perfectly cooked meat with generous portions of rice, fries, and veggies, along with utensils and sauce. The restaurant is known for its flavorful Afghan cuisine, offering a wide variety of grilled meats, rice platters, and traditional sides. Standout items include the Chicken Tikka Kebab, Chapli Kabab, Lamb Shank, beef kofta kabab dinner, and chicken shawarmas. While the portions are generous and the meat is well-seasoned, some customers have noted that prices are on the higher side for the portion sizes.
The experience can be inconsistent; while some staff, like Huma, are friendly and attentive, others may seem overwhelmed, especially during busy hours. Wait times for food can be long, even when the restaurant isn’t crowded. The ambiance is casual, leaning more toward a takeout vibe than a dine-in destination.
Although the food and service are praised, there have been concerns about the cleanliness of the washroom and the dine-in area, with issues like bothersome fumes from fried food and unclean surfaces. Despite these drawbacks, Kandahar Kabab remains a recommended choice for those in Pickering, as the flavor and authenticity of the dishes can make it worthwhile.
