Maihan Restaurant — Restaurant in Vaughan

I recently had breakfast at Maihan restaurant, and it was an experience worth repeating! The cozy atmosphere and friendly staff made for a welcoming start to the day.

Food: The breakfast buffet offers a fantastic variety of both classic and unique dishes. The toast was perfectly crisp, and the eggs were cooked to perfection. My friend had the blueberry pancakes, which were light, fluffy, and bursting with fresh berries. The portion sizes are generous, and everything tasted fresh and well-prepared. I also appreciated the attention to detail—whether it was the presentation or the balance of flavors, it all came together beautifully.

Drinks: The coffee was rich and smooth, and they offer a nice selection of specialty drinks. I had the Gaimaq chai, which was refreshing and perfectly balanced. They also offer fresh-squeezed juices, which added a healthy touch to the meal.

Service: The service was excellent! The staff was attentive without being overbearing. They checked in just the right amount and were happy to accommodate a few special requests we had.

Ambiance: The restaurant is warm and inviting, with plenty of natural light and comfortable seating. It’s a great spot for a relaxing breakfast, whether you’re dining solo or with friends.

Overall: Maihan restaurant is a wonderful spot for a satisfying breakfast. Whether you’re in the mood for something light or indulgent, their menu has something for everyone. I’ll definitely be coming back...

I walked into this restaurant thinking it is "La Bella Italia" as the decoration and tables/chairs are the same as before. The only difference is the large hung Venice canal photo has been taken down from the wall.

I was pleasantly surprised to learn the restaurant is now serving Afghan cuisine.

Our server gave us a lay of the land since this was our first visit. Surprisingly, the menu still offers " Margherita Pizza" and "Rose Penne".

We tried a few of their appetizers: Hummus with Naan Salata Samosa All three dishes tasted fresh with quality ingredients. The Naan is actually a very thick bread almost like a oval shaped flat bread (rather than the Indian Naan which is much thinner).

We tried a few main course entrees: Two skewers of Kobidah with rice Chicken kabob with rice Afghan pasta Kobidah was excellent with its spice and beef. Chicken kabob was tender and juicy, cooked just right and not overly burnt. Afghan pasta was served slightly chilled with a yogurt base.

Their rice pudding and baklava were also delicious. The restaurant was very hospitable offering us complimentary green tea to end our meal.

Great service and...

Atmosphere 5 stars - Very nice dining seating

Service 5 stars- Server was very welcoming and gave exceptional service👍

Order the Kobidah Kabob plate and substitute the regular rice with Qabuli rice 5/5 meat was really tender and flavorful! loved it!

Ordered the Bolani was loaded with potatoes and herbs and came with a very nice mint chilli sweet sauce 4.5/5 (I found the potatoes a little on the moist side I would have preferred if it was a bit more dry/compact this is my personal preference)

Ordered the Korma- 4.5/5 This Korma was very aromatic never tasted something like this in other Afghan restaurants. I guess this restaurant dish is inspired from a different region in aghanistan 🤗

I oredered a naan, I don't have a picture of it. however it was a 1/5 for me.

Overall I give Maihan restaurant a 4/5 on my first visit.

I would come back again and try other menu items!

Portion was generous, food is overall delicious...
