An absolute gem. Superb food, friendly welcoming service. Extensive menu with a variety of meat and vegetarian dishes. We'd come here even if it was a longer drive- as it is, the proximity is ideal.

Everything was fine, except my wife's lamb shoulder was cooked toolong very dry. Everything else was great.

Haven't been here in two or three years but tonight I went with two other friends for a birthday dinner and the food and service did not disappoint. The waitress brought us three amarettos compliments of the house and it was just lovely. Even the coffee was delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant. I won't wait two years again!

Really enjoyed the Baadenjaan Chalou. The bread and dips were yummy too.

My husband enjoyed the lamb shank special and I found the roasted butternut squash to be the best I have ever tasted. The pumpkin dumplings with minced beef were also delicious and the pistachio cake is not to be missed!

Jonathan

The bread with the sauces brought complimentary was outstanding. My salmon entree was very tasty. I highly recommend this place

Our group ordered from the specials menu and were not disappointed. The appetizer dumplings were all delicious as were the lamb shanks and the veal special. It is a special treat of have Naan bread with 4 choices of dips, all delicious and not too spicy. They were very busy and we arrived early for our 6:30 reservations so it was a little slow after the Naan delight. But our waiter was very apologetic. We had an excellent bottle of French Crozes Hermitage that was perfect with our meals. the desserts were also delicious but had a little difficulty tasting the Cardamon in the cake or the rose water in the custard but the chocolate cake was incredible (probably not traditional for Afghan food though). All in all, a gem we will frequent again soon!

An Unexpected Gem – Now My Go-To Spot!
I will start by saying: you owe it to yourself to experience this gem. I came here by mere accident, and now it’s going to be my go-to place whenever I’m in the area. From the moment I walked in, I was pleasantly surprised—everything from the atmosphere to the service exceeded expectations. Highly recommended!

Got a take out order for lunch for me and several co-workers. We all got something different and absolutely loved it! Fantastic flavors, great portions, and piping hot for a take away dish. Highly recommend this restaurant and we will all eat here again for sure. Incredibly delicious, so happy we tried it. I only wished the bread was more of a homemade Naan but at least the extra sauces they provided were stunningly tasty. Can’t wait to try this restaurant again!
