Awesome food and lively atmosphere. Very caring servers, even though it was packed. highly recommend making a reservation.
Great little family run gem. Service and atmosphere were excellent. The food was so much better than I had hoped for. The chicken Masala was incredible as were the chicken and beef kabobs. The lamb stew with spinach had more of a beef flavor than lamb but the dish was delicious none the less. I was bit hesitant about trying the rice with raisins but it was perhaps the best rice I've ever had . The sweetness from the raisins along with the long grain white rice is truly amazing . The appetizers were authentic and tasty. Afghani food is such an incredible infusion of Asian and Indian styles but without the Heat of Indian food. I will definitely be going back and would reccomend Kabul to anyone who has not been. It is a very fun culinary experience.
Everything was SO tasty. I just ordered a simple chicken lamb kebob and it was very flavorful. It comes with a salad and rice and I added the raisins and carrots to the rice, which made it even more delicious. My friend had lamb (not chunks but bigger pieces) on a skewer and said it was delicious. I don't remember the names of the apps but we got the first 2 on the menu and also the hummus, which was amazing. They only have wine and beer so if you drink alcohol, you should bring your own. The service was very good and if you don't know what to order, they are willing to help and make suggestions.
Food is always excellent and service is very good. I love the decor and there is usually interesting music on (I assume it's Afghan music), though last time I went, the music was not on.
