" I had the best Afghan food experience here! The variety on the menu is excellent, and I loved the mantu and qabli palaw. Every bite was bursting with authentic flavors. It was busy when we got there, but the service was still good. I will surely be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" The flavors at Bamyan Kabob are unlike anything I’ve had before. The manti blew my mind, and the spicy sauces added a delightful kick. Fast service and clean establishment. Make sure to stop by if you’re in the area—you will not regret it! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a mixed experience. The food was quite good, especially the chicken karahi, but it took a long time to receive our order. I get that they might be short-staffed, so I’ll give them another shot next time. But for now, it was decent but not exceptional. " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is a gem! The atmosphere is perfect for a casual dinner, and the staff is always kind and helpful. The food is authentic, and their kebabs are phenomenal! I’ll definitely be returning for more, can’t wait to try their sweets next! " (*Curated Review*)

" The restaurant was well-kept and the staff attentive, but I wish the food had been more exciting. The lamb was good, but it didn't have the depth of flavor I was hoping for. Perhaps I’ll try a different dish next time as I really want to enjoy authentic Afghan food. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a gem! The authentic flavors transport you straight to Afghanistan. I loved their kabuli rice, so aromatic and flavorful. The service was welcoming, but it did take a little while for our food to arrive. Still, I left satisfied and will recommend to everyone. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for authentic Afghan food, you can't do better than Afghan Bamyan Kabob! Everything from the kabobs to the rice is superb. Plus, the staff is always friendly and eager to help with recommendations. I will continue to make this my go-to spot! " (*Curated Review*)
