Delicious food and was excited to try Afghan cuisine for the first time, but the service is an absolute train wreck. Had to go up myself to the waiters 3 times to ask for water, the check etc. and it wasn't even that busy. The whole time they were just talking amongst themselves and seemed bothered whenever I asked them for something. Waited almost 30 minutes to receive the bill after asking for it. Overall, service needs an attitude adjustment.

It was our first time trying Afghan cuisine. We loved this place. Amazing food, ambience and service. All the dishes were presented so well. The owner, Noori, was super friendly. We will definitely be going back.

This restaurant is a must stop. I am so glad that we did. The food and service were above and beyond. Hopefully, you'll get Cheryl because she's phenomenal. I wasn't completely satisfied with my mojito and she re made without any hesitation it and made sure that it was delicious. We ordered the dumplings because we read the reviews and they definitely didn't disappoint. The lamb shank, beef & lamb kabobs were also delicious, but just a bit spicy for a kid's taste nevertheless our daughters enjoyed them. We will definitely come back when we are in town. Dietary restrictions: We had the vegetarian dumplings and they were absolutely delicious. Parking: Plenty of parking. The restaurant is in a plaza. Kid-friendliness: Menu is appropriate for kids. They have chicken and beef options.
