The staff is very friendly and helpful. We had a decent sized group and ordered 3 kabob dishes and 3 kabob sandwiches. The portions are good and the food was great. Despite the seating area being under construction, the atmosphere was still clean and nice. The service was great!

We’ve been coming here for years and it’s never disappointed. Highly recommend the beef and lamb kabob plate (A9), the kabob sandwich, the chickpeas, and the baklava. Fantastic staff that always go above and beyond.

Unfortunately, the food quality was disappointing. The dishes were overly oily, the rice tasted old, and the kebab meat had an unpleasant flavor. I hope the restaurant improves food freshness and overall taste.

I visited with friends for the spec ops community and we thoroughly enjoyed the food. Staff were very friendly and attentive to our needs. Very much recommend them!

The food was delicious. The kabobs, chicken and lamb, were very tender and tasty. The plates are big. It comes withe rice, salad, a side of your choice, and naan. The fried eggplant was great on the tandoori naan. Friends liked the chickpeas. They said the flavor was very good. The place looks like it is doing some redecorating. Will definitely go back for the food and see the update

used to love coming to this Afghan restaurant for breakfast — it was one of my favorites in town. The food was fresh, flavorful, and always satisfying. Unfortunately, things have gone downhill, and my recent visits have been very disappointing.

The quality of the breakfast has dropped dramatically. The eggs are greasy and cooked worsen , the tomatoes taste soggy, and the bread, which used to be soft and delicious, is now dry and bland. What once felt like a hearty, authentic Afghan breakfast now feels rushed and poorly prepared.

On top of that, the service has gotten worse. The staff used to be attentive and welcoming, but now they seem careless and uninterested. It takes a long time to get food, and when it finally comes, it doesn’t feel worth the wait.

It’s sad to see a place that once had such great potential decline like this. I truly hope the owners take feedback seriously and bring back the quality and service that made this restaurant special. Until then, I can’t recommend their breakfast anymore.

Terrible attitude when picking up order. Rude staff who when I tried to verify what I ordered they still ended up putting the wrong side into my food. Chicken barely has flavor as well as sauce.

I’ve been coming to this establishment since it first opened, and the food has always been great. I usually opt for carry-out, though, because the dining area and tables aren’t always clean

This place is incredible. The food is amazing and very fresh. If parking was easier this place would be packed all the time, but there is parking in the back. Love this place

Many people have already pointed this out, but I’m surprised the restaurant hasn’t made any improvements. If you want customers to return, cleanliness should be a top priority. It’s hard to enjoy a meal when the tables and floors are dirty. I’m not sure if the owner is reading these comments, but if this continues, you’re going to lose a lot of loyal customers
