   Simply incredible! The food was amazing! I ordered the vegetarian plate and it was like nothing I've had before...vegetarian wise. The wait staff was excellent. There's a full-bar to boot. The owner stopped by our table and we talked about Afghanistan. It's quite the place! Let me tell you buddy, this is a great date restuarant...if you get my drift!

   I just had a fantastic dinner. I have a favorite Afghan place in the bay area, but this one also hits the spot, equally. The service was very good and friendly; I was dining alone. The Kadu is a must, and the Shinwari Kabob was very good (rack of lamb was good, but it was super flavorful cherry, pomegranate sauce that made the dish excellent. I would probably order the lamb rare instead of medium rare the next time. Portions are perfect.

   All we can say is WOW!
   
   We totally loved the food here. We ordered the Sambosa (sp?) appetizer which really good. We ordered the lamb kabob and chicken kabob. Both entrees where outstanding! The lamb was very tender and juicy. Chicken was prepared just right. Basmati rice was outstanding. Portions pretty big. We should have split an entree with the appetizer and we are big eaters.
   
   Service was attentive. We went here before a baseball game and there were only 2 other tables of 2 in the restaurant. More people need to go to this place.
   
   Spices are not overwhelming like other Middle Eastern and Persian restaurants. The flavors are very good and quality of meat high.
   
   We will be back more often!
