This is my first time with Chopan, as well as Afghan food. I'd say it's incredibly tasty. I ordered braised lamb with rice, and it came with a side dish on your selection (I chose eggplants with tomato sauces). For dessert, I had fried milk balls, topped by sweet sauce. The drink was their traditional Green tea. In addition to Thai food, I would say Afghan food will, from now on, also be my favorite. Besides food taste, I am also giving them 100 out of 10 for service. They are polite, smiling, and very welcomed. What makes me feel extremely impressive is that they didn't accept card payments, and I had not enough cash for the meal. This was obviously not their fault at all. The meal costed 23.5€ in total, but I had only 15€ in cash. They said it's no problem, I could pay the next time I come. I insisted on leaving my stuff there, while I went out for an ATM, since I didn't mean not to pay. They, then, replied that I liked there food is much more important than the 8€, and insisted that I can pay next time if I wanted to. Wow.. they are just amazing. So whoever reads this, please try their food by yourself. I recommend Chopan with no hesitation and regardless of the 8€ exemption from them. I, myself, will return to the restaurant soon, and will definitely become a regular guest!

Ich war gestern mit einer Freundin zum ersten Mal im Chopan Schwabing. Ich fang mit dem positiven an. Der Chef hat uns nach langem studieren der Karte sehr gut beraten was wir denn Essen sollen. Unseren Geschmack hat er voll getroffen. Das Essen war richtig lecker, super gewürzt und einfach mal was ganz anderes. Das Fleisch zerfiel schon beim anschauen so zart war es. 👍🏼 Die Portionen sind für meine Verhältnisse zu groß aber für den Preis 18-22€ durchaus angebracht. Das Ambiente des Lokals ist sehr schön, klein aber fein. 😊 Zum negativen und der Grund für die zwei Punkte Abzug: Der Empfang des Chefs muss ich sagen war nicht der freundlichste. Ich hatte das mit der Reservierungszeit 18-20 Uhr falsch verstanden und wir kam 18:45 Uhr. Nach kurzer Diskussion haben wir dann aber doch ein Tisch bekommen mit den Worten bis 20:30Uhr habt ihr Zeit. Für uns völlig in Ordnung, kommt halt auch immer darauf an wie schnell die Küche ist. Wir wurden leider kein einziges Mal gefragt ob alles in Ordnung ist oder ob wir noch was zu trinken wollen. Die Frage nach Kaffee oder Dessert hat hat auch gefehlt und wir hätten die Zeit gehabt. Unsere leeren Teller standen sehr lange, teils kamen andere Tische später als wir (was plötzlich kein Problem war) haben später gegessen als wir und wurden schneller abgeräumt. Alles in allem kann ich es aber dennoch sehr empfehlen, möglicherweise hatten wir einfach einen schlechten Tag/Moment erwischt.

The food is delicious, the service attentive and caring - it's a great place to eat Afghani food! For starters we had a great soup with lentils, tomatoes, dill and yogurt, we also tried the pumpkin which was very well flavoured. For mains, we tried both lamb and chicken - both were good, the rice is great and the side of spinach is awesome. Rich tastes, with cardamom, safron and other great spices. Should consider making a reservation; they only accept cash.

They serve exactly authentic Afghan food. I’ve visited several times. Every time the food is excellent as well as the quality. This time I ordered a soup and grilled chicken and both were delicious.The portions are very generous and service was super nice. Be aware, this place takes CASH only. The restaurant always busy, so make a reservation in advance to make sure there is a table for you.

It's always hard to get a table at Chopan. The quality of the food is the explanation - absolutely delicious and novel. I feel it's hard to compare Afghan cuisine to anything else you find in Munich - it's something between Iranian and Indian but with a soul of its own, and we felt Chopan really transmitted that. The attention and prices were ok too, we got served quite fast :-).

Fantastic restaurant. We tried a few different vegetarian options and they were all delicious. A bit spicy though. The Aubergine starter was excellent with tomato sauce and sour cream(yogurt?). Augustiner vom Faß I always consider a plus too. Try the pistachio baklava as dessert, it has two pieces so it is good to share. The place is small-ish, make sure to book in advance.
