I'm shocked this place doesn't have more reviews!
Restaurants out this way are rare and just as rarely, are actually good. This is one of those amazing finds in the area that we didn't expect to stumble across and especially flavors from Afghanistan. If you've never had Afghan cuisine, think of it as heavily spiced and hearty vegetables and meats, that are accompanied with naan that you can use to sop it up in any flavor combination you wish out of shared communal plates.
We had Mantoo ( as an appetizer that can be ordered as a meal on it's own ) - it's steamed dumplings with meat/vegetables, drizzled in sauce and a tart yogurt.
We also had Korma Challow ( chicken breast that's seasoned and spicy ) and Veggie Sabzi-Challow ( Spinach/onions/garlic/salt - tastes like meat, you'll probably like it ).
The staff were courteous and helpful, they were excited to tell us what they had to offer.

Also, it would look more professional to use a consistent spellingāeither "kabob" or "kabab"āon the menu. That said, the restaurantās atmosphere and...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreA peaceful escape with incredible Afghan food! This place is a hidden treasureāan open-air Afghani restaurant set on a beautiful ranch. The setting is so serene and refreshing, perfect for enjoying a relaxing meal outdoors. The food was absolutely outstanding: authentic flavors, generous portions, and everything cooked to perfection. The kebabs were juicy, the rice was aromatic, and the naan was fresh and warm. It truly felt like a home-cooked meal in the countryside. The staff was welcoming and made the whole experience even better. If youāre looking for a unique dining experience that combines great food with nature and fresh air, this is the...
