The food was good. There was only one service person. This place needs more staff.

Service was so so (one waiter for the entire restaurant at lunch) but he was nice and the chicken kabobs were excellent! Juicy, tender and with just the right amount of grill burn flavor. Very much enjoyed it and will be back!

I love Afghan food. Went there a couple of times. Both times food the food was not fresh. I love rice and I can tell if the rice was just made or it was microwaved. I ordered ghabli polo. The rice was too dry and so was the meat.
