EVEN OUR PICKY KIDS enjoyed the meal: lamb chicken combo with amazing rice and Nan. Parents also had ochre and spinach.

Yes, we'll eat there again (and again).

UPDATE: maybe management has changed or something but they always seem to be out of some things we used to love to get including fresh hummus and okra. And The chicken seems to taste, not quite as spectacular. Also, used to see more people dining in before - they seem to get updated...

Under new management! And let me tell you everyone is so nice, the atmosphere is amazing and the food is 10/10! They are in the middle of a transition so everything is changing over but it’s well work the time and price.

I had a wonderful experience at Kabobistan. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The kabobs were perfectly grilled, juicy, and well-seasoned, paired with aromatic rice and fresh vegetables. The naan bread was warm fresh and soft, and the chickpeas were rich and delicious. The service was friendly and welcoming, making the overall dining experience even better. Highly recommend for anyone looking for authentic and satisfying Afghan cuisine!
