Sometimes I get in the mood for a different kind of food with different flavors and this place was definitely that. They balance , healthy options with creative flavors that you don't run into often and very good service. I recommend the dumplings. If you are into those kinds of things, go ahead and give them a try! Nice , clean space , enjoy yourself and I wish the owner's luck.

Phenomenal food, everything is so flavorful and the portions are significant. The lamb was perfectly cooked and tender and did not taste gamey at all. The Qabuli rice was very moist and fluffy, which can be hard to do with basmati rice but they nailed it.

Afghanistan cuisine was formally known as Colosseum deli and loft. Opened up way back in somewhere around 2005 and has had the same delicious food ever since. I’m one of the OG patrons. This place has always been an amazing place to sit and relax and eat good food. The grilled chicken sub has been my favorite for the past 20 years even Through this Restaurant Being ran by three different owners, the grilled chicken remains among the best on the menu!!
