I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at this restaurant. The chicken was incredibly tender and delicious, paired perfectly with the soothing notes of Persian music playing in the background. The warm and inviting atmosphere made me feel like part of a big family. A truly delightful dining experience!

Very nice place and great people I had the chicken kabob Sub it was very delicious 😋 And I had the samosa it was not that good. It was just like the ready frozen ones from supermarket.

The customer service was horrible. We arrived there 35 mins before closing, but still they said we couldn’t sit there to eat and they made it seem like we were making them annoyed by asking. They could have said it nicely. The employees acted like they hated their job and got annoyed by customers. They were also asking each other if we were Indians (I don't know what our race has to do with anything). Will never come back here. Learned my lesson. I usually don’t write bad reviews but had to for this one.

Used to come here when it was called Zanzibar back in the day. Recently came back to this now Afgan restaurant and it was amazing. Very friendly woman at the front, wore gloves when serving and explained the dishes to us. I tried the tandoori chicken over rice and it was amazing. The chicken was tender and flavorful. The menu has a variety of options that I will need to return and try. Price is also reasonable, better than when it was Zanzibar. Will need to add this to the rotation.

Outstanding falafel gyro! Immaculate dinning room;counter service with friendly staff. I ordered two falafel gyros to go and waited 15 min for fresh order. Pita seemed to be homemade-but I’m not sure. It was just that good! Better than any other pita I’ve had. Falafel was fresh made to order and delicious! They offered two small sides of hummus since we omitted the sauce it comes with. (Sauce contains dairy). The hummus was perfect. The portion size was large, worth $8.99.

Delicious Afghan food made with fresh ingredients. My favorite is the roasted lamb with brown rice and carrots and raisin topping and the beef gyro. Generous portion sizes with plenty of dressing choices, and friendly staff. Strongly recommend.

Halal food tastes excellent. The special Afghan Recipes with mouth watering flavors. Karachi Pakistani food like kabli plow & sheekh kabab + tikka boti stuff.🥳

Large potions of tasty food. Had the 2kebab platter. One chicken one beef. HIGHLY recommend asking for the carrots and raisins on the rice. Was great. The white sauce was very very good should have asked for extra. The hot sauce is definitely that. But very good well.

This would get 5 stars but during crowded hours, service can falter a bit. Overall food is amazing and freshly cooked. Staff is very courteous and responsive. Place was clean . Really enjoyed dining here.

Was curious to check out this place for afghan food although it was a long drive from home. But it was worth the evening trip. The food was delicious and fresh. Environment is cozy and staffs are really welcoming and friendly. They serve plenty of food for every dish. Will definitely come back.

Flavorful delicious afghan food. The rice and the chicken were on point. Also, their house salad was amazing. Finely chopped and had some onions and pickles in it, the way it should be.

Ordered vegetable curry and was served a bowl of Campbells vegetable soup!! Terrible!! With no curry seasoning! What Middle Eastern uses corn in their traditional food. Service wasn’t that great either, they’re not that friendly or welcoming. Won’t be back

Stopped in for a delicious lunch. Really liked the chicken salad with walnuts, dried fruit and lots of tender, flavorful chicken. The gyros are packed full. This was a great choice for lunch.
