" I was thoroughly impressed by the flavors at Nora! I tried the butternut squash with lamb, and it was delicious but slightly on the salty side. The cocktails were varied and quite well-made. However, the service took longer than expected, which affected our overall experience. Still a place I would recommend to friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" Nora is a hidden gem in the Bishop Arts District! They have an amazing outdoor area which is perfect for enjoying the hookah and cocktails on a summer evening. The menus are full of delicious options. I tried their spicy meatballs and the dolma, both of which were incredible! Really authentic flavors. I’ll be definitely going back for more. " (*Curated Review*)

" Nora serves some of the best Afghan food I have ever tasted! The ambiance is intimate and charming, making it a perfect spot for evenings out. My favorite dishes are the Qabili Palao and the mantoo. The flavors are rich and authentic, taking me right back to my family gatherings. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone wanting to experience delicious Afghan cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, I've had enjoyable experiences at Nora. The food is generally quite good, but I’ve had inconsistencies in quality. The spicy chicken meatballs are a standout. However, the service tends to lag during peak hours, which can be frustrating. I do appreciate the wide drink selection though. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently enjoyed dinner at Nora after hearing great things. I ordered the chicken korma which was savory and came with a huge serving of saffron rice. The place was lively, and it felt perfect for a night out with friends. The service was friendly, although a little stretched thin. Overall, a promising experience, and I plan to visit again.

" My friends raved about this place, and I finally tried it! The atmosphere is inviting, and the food is good. The lamb korma was solid, but my rice was a little too sweet for my liking. Service was decent, but I've had better. Overall, I'd give it another shot for sure, hoping they can improve on the rice next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" We enjoyed our night out at Nora. The lively environment and welcoming staff made for a pleasant dining experience. We appreciated the extensive menu options and the authentic tastes of the dishes we ordered. The only hitch was the wait time but overall, this place is a terrific option for Afghan cuisine.
