★★★☆☆ 3.0 Tahaa Saeed · Jan 2026

Taste is good but the problem is they do not serve water. This could be the only restaurant in the US where I see no water serving. Even when we asked they served us bottled water. Rates are too high for the serving they give. Staff is nice and polite but staff is not the reason we go to a restaurant.

★★★★★ 5.0 Maha Ansari · Jul 2025

The bulani was so good!! Both the leeks and potato one. Their chutneys were spicy and sour at the same time, really good. The omelette was oily but it was still tasty. The worker there was kind enough to customize our order and made us chicken kabob rolls to go for our trip. Chicken karahi was good but maybe some people might prefer it to be spicy since it was a bit mild but the flavors were tasty. I liked the Afghani naan it was fluffy. We came here from North Carolina, missing the bulani, I wish they had Afghani restaurants here too! Haha The only downside is when we came here the A/C was not working and it was too hot to eat inside. There was a longer wait to receive everything but we still enjoyed the food🙏

★★★★☆ 4.0 Emran Ahmed · Sep 2025

Wide selection of Afghani and Pakistani dishes with lamb , chicken and beef kababs. Several briyani and Afghani rice dishes. Family owned restaurant and Afghani grocery store and no real wait staff.

★★★★★ 5.0 Phil S · Mar 2026

Food was outstanding. No frills restaurant but if you’re a fan of Afghan food you can’t go wrong. I had the lamb kebob. It was perfectly cooked and seasoned and a great portion.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Jeremy B · Nov 2025

Pretty legit authentic Afghan food! Definitely different from Indian food if your thinking its the same. The food is spicy...but like different and less than Indian food. I enjoyed it. Its about on par price wise...17 or 22 bucks for a meal. Remember a lot of food comes so easily 2 servings. I would recommend!
