What a delightful experience! The food was outstanding, the service was wonderful, and late on a Sunday night we had a slow and quiet dinner - it was perfect start to finish. We had the assorted dumplings and the Afghania flight (so much food!) and every single thing had its own flavor profile and every meat was perfectly tender. So so good. Try something new and spend an evening at this wonderful restaurant!

This place took the number one spot for best meat in DC. We got the Afghani Platter which was like a full 5 course meap that was totally worth it and filled us up and more. Their lamb is so incredibly tender and just falls off the bone so well. incredibly perfectly cooked steak as well. Just 10/10 no notes. Would come here again!

Went on Valentines Day. Food was delicious and large portions, we ended up sharing our dishes. Would recommend: lamb shank and vegetable flight. The sauces with the bread were very tasty as well. Was very crowded, of course it was due to the holiday, but the tables were crammed in the small space making it hard to move around.

This is NOT a sponsored ad! This food was wild!!!! Amazing! Revolutionary. I was honored to have indulged in this experience. I had the best basmati of my life, the pistachio cake and saffron tea were filled with passion. Even the squash on my plate was made me want to shed tears of joy. Words can't do this place justice. The service was elite and I will never forget! Food and portions were perfect and man even the water changed my life.

★★★★★ 5.0 Dustin Jones · Aug 2025

Never really had afghan food before but happy went here. Was an overall great experience. Got the signature lamb, everything was good. Bread was good especially with sauce options. Came with our son, was a little nicer than kid Restaurant but made due.
