    don't order from the website, they don't get the order and it still charges you. when i went to pick up an order after i placed it on the website and payed for it, the restaurant was closed and no one was picking up calls either. called them the next day and the lady said she can't do anything about it, kept saying the company handles that (?). i just wanted the order but she probably thought i was trying to make her pay me back or something. either way just go in person if you want their food, they take forever making it anyway

    I loved it! Not had much afghani food but the chicken, rice, veggies and especially the spicy green sauce were incredible. The owner was so sweet and doing it all herself. Deserves a lot of love, give it a try!

    i love this restaurant! went here a week ago with the whole family and couldn't help coming back again 😋. all the food that we have had is excellent, such as beef qorma, land and chicken afghani plates (chicken is best personally), mantu, ashak, and of course the bolani. it all tasted home cooked and the lady that owns the place and operates it all by herself is very very nice, making me feel at home, as if she were my own grandma. i would highly recommend for afghani food lovers and people who have never had it before. afghani food is highly underrated, one of the best cuisines out there, i would encourage anyone living in or near the valley to try this place.

    The owner and chef is exceptional. She takes immense pride in the dishes she prepares. You can taste the love in the food. She genuinely cares about making visitors happy with her food. I have visited several times. I have had everything in the menu. I recommend all of it. Definitely don't leave without a bolani. Both are good but i prefer the afghan leek variety. The afghan plate features fantastic chicken. 3 menu items can feed 4 easily. Pro-tip. Call well ahead and you can order her special off menu Lamb-shank. But....i warn you ..only order if you are okay getting your mind blown 🤯. Couple it with the green chutney it is a must ❤️
