Mouthwatering Menu

Their menu is a treasure trove of authentic Afghan dishes. I highly recommend starting with the Chaplee Kabob5]. This flavorful ground beef patty is seasoned to perfection with chopped onions, tomatoes, and a hint of spice that will wake up your palate[4].

For the main course, the Bone-in Chicken is a must-try. Marinated in special herbs and grilled to juicy perfection, it's a dish that showcases the essence of Afghan cooking[1]. If you're a lamb lover, don't miss out on the Lamb Kabob. The tender chunks of meat are infused with aromatic spices that will transport you straight to Kabul[1].

Seafood enthusiasts will delight in the Shrimp Kabob. These jumbo shrimp are expertly seasoned and grilled, offering a lighter yet equally satisfying option[7]. Beyond the Kebabs

While the kebabs are stellar, don't overlook other menu items. The fragrant rice dishes and freshly baked naan bread are the perfect accompaniments to soak up the delicious sauces[1.

I recently tried this new, local Afghan style kabob restaurant. Walked in and waited a while up front (where the previous restaurants in this spot used to greet and seats guests) and after no one showed up, I walked to the back counter and rang the bell. A minute later someone came up. I placed my order, but wanted to know a little more about how they do their chaplee kabob, as it’s typically spicey at most places and that’s what I prefer. That didn’t seem to go well, so I just ordered it and sat down.

A few mins later a couple walked it and did the same as me, stood up front. After a minute, I told them they needed to go to the back and ring the bell. (they might want t put a sign up front directing guests to do this).

My food came out pretty quick, but rather than bringing it to the table, they call the guests to the back to get it. (I gave a tip when paying, not quite sure what that was for at this point). It looked great, very appealing! The rice tasted the best of everything on my plate. The salad was made with fresh items, but they put Italian dressing on it – very odd as that doesn’t match the flavors here. The chick peas side dish was fresh, but not very tasty and the only spice seemed to come from the black pepper in it. The chaplee kabob was pretty salty, definitely not spicey and pretty much on the bland side. Their bread (resembled naan) was pretty nice.

During the visit the staff stayed in the kitchen in the back, never coming out to ask how the guests liked the food, check on guests, etc. They definitely need to pick up their customer service a little. Freshness is quite decent, but flavors are bland. I realize they recently opened, maybe they’re still working to...

We stopped in for an early lunch. I have lots of food allergies and the chef came out to talk to us and let me know what things were safe for me. We only had to wait about 10 minutes. While we waited, the chef sent out small bowls of lentil soup. It was delicious! The soup was served with lime so I tried squeezing it on the soup. What a difference that made! It was like a totally different soup! What had been a fairly traditional slightly spicy lentil soup with fresh pepper on top, totally transformed with the lime to this bright and buttery, slightly sweet but still savory. We ordered 2 double servings to go! Then our meals came. My chicken kabob platter was so much food, I have plenty to take home! And I am so glad to have 2 delicious meals! The chicken kabobs could be cut with a fork and were so juicy and tender! The flavors were fantastic! My husband had a gyro platter and he was very happy with it, as well. Shortly after we started eating our entrees, the chef brought us a large piece of naan bread fresh from the oven. My husband said it was amazing. The staff there was friendly and provided...
