    Afghan Cuisine offers lunch special before 3 pm. Tandoori Chicken Leg Kabob ($8.99) which includes a pop sounded like a good value. Sadly the kabob tasted bland and dry. The wait time for my lunch in an almost empty restaurant was long. I do appreciate how each order was made when order but 15 minute wait for a fast food like setting? Luckily I was not in a rush. I do love the deco and spacious interior. Just wish the food could be better!

    Date Visited : 24th Sep '19 Wow! Just Wow! Although we were a bit sceptical coming here because of the mixed reviews on Yelp we decided to give this place a try Thankfully we had a wonderful meal - the food here is amazing! The meat was juicy and simply fell off the bone and the rice was simply perfection! We ordered the Lamb Shank with Rice, Grilled Salmon with Naan, and the Crispy Fries The bill came to $38 and it was absolutely worth it. Gonna come here again to taste the kebabs and tandoori

    My first impression was how clean and well kept the restaurant was. The lady working there was helpful in answering our questions about the food. Everything was prepared quickly and came in large portions. I ordered tandoori chicken and my boyfriend ordered the lamb shank. 10/10 for the lamb shank, it was super juicy and tender. Both dishes came with rice and salad. I liked the flavor of the rice and the hot sauce that came with was good too. Would not get the tandoori chicken next time but would try a different meat! Definitely very worth it for the money and would go there again!

    This is one of the worst dining experiences I have had. I have eaten here before and it was good. I decided to bring someone with me and told them this was a place to dine . Wow, was I surprised with the food and more to the point the extremely poor and rude service I received. We ordered the tandoori chicken dinner which after 15 minutes was ready. I bit into it and it was dry as a bone and extremely salty. I told the lady at the counter about my food and she reluctantly brought it to the kitchen. She and I had a long discussion about what was dry chicken and what wasn't. I asked her for a new batch of chicken and conveniently they were now out of the whole chicken tandoori! She said she could give us chicken breast, which I have had before. I agreed and waited. While I was waiting she informed me that the chef said the cook on the chicken was fine. I told her that he should eat then. When the new meal came the chicken pieces were tiny as if they had took a regular piece and cut it in half to make it look like there was more chicken. I bit into it and again it was dry and if it was worse than the first batch. At this point I had had enough and just ate the food. After I finished, I told the lady and the cook that I had been before and it was good and this time it was horrible. They did not offer me a free desert or drink or a refund. They said they wasted 20.00 worth of chicken because I didn't order correctly. I said are you kidding me. They said it's not their restaurant and then I told them the owner should hire a more professional staff! DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!

    Lunch special, worth the money, fresh and healthy

    This is the first time I've tried Afghan cuisine and I was happily surprised. We ordered the chicken kabob lunch special, $8.99, as an easy introduction to Afghan tastes. Perfectly cooked, juicy and nicely spiced. The rice tastes like it's cooked with cinnamon, but when I asked I was told it's not and that it's a combination of afghan spices. The rice is really good. Salad was lightly dressed and refreshing. The hot sauce was excellent, not too hot and very flavourful. This is not a fast food restaurant it seems that all the meats are cooked fresh. So have patience, I think it's worth the wait. The restaurant is newly renovated, modern and very clean. There is lots of seating available with many booths. Next time I'm going to be more adventurous order something I've never tried before.

    First time customer here. The ambiance is modern, there is a lot of money invested in renovation. The food we tried was good. I love Afghan pillow, and mostly came for it, it didn't disappoint. Stuff was patient with us as we didn't really know all the names for the dishes, so we just pointed to what people had and they explained what it was and how it was prepared. Good place to have a quick lunch or to order take out. The only minus was a salad - mostly shredded romaine lettuce with two bits of greenish tomato and mayo. Would stick to meat and rice next time.

We've tried their juicy kebabs, fork-tender braised lamb shank and appetizers (momos and the creamy roasted eggplant dish) and everything tasted top notch. This small restaurant is run by a family and the service can be a little slow, but you can rest assured the food you will receive is well worth the wait. If you're coming in for the first time, they will enthusiastically recommend their specialty items with warm smiles. Complimentary tea served during our last visit was fragrant and really elevated our meal to the next level. I look forward to returning to try out more of their menu very soon.

We went there to try their Chicken Tandoori, sheekh kebab on rice served with salad and naan, and Lamb shank with rice and salad. I personally liked the tandoori chicken and felt that the other grilled meat could have had more flavour, it seemed a bit dry. We also tried their lamb shank with rice and salad and the meat was very tender cooked in a tomato based gravy. Definitely better than the grilled meat. But it wasn't the food that stole the show; it was the ambiance and the sense of community that truly made the experience memorable. Sharing a meal here sitting on their beautifully decorated space during the holy month of Ramadan brought forth a different experience which is what made it special!

Heads-up to fellow Americans: If you're visiting from the United States, bring Canadian cash! Credit and debit cards issued in the United States are not accepted here. Nonetheless, the staff was really helpful and attentive while explaining their payment procedure. They walked me through the alternatives with no haste or attitude, which made the experience even more inviting. I ordered the Sultani Plate, which included a skewer of tender koobideh and a perfectly grilled barg kabob. The meat was juicy, tasty, and beautifully grilled. The rice was buttery and fragrant, and the side salad provided a welcome fresh crunch. My wife and kids chose the Chicken Chapli Kabab Plate, and we were all impressed. The patties were juicy, seasoned just right, and went perfectly with the rice and naan. It's a terrific choice for both adults and children, as it's tasty but not overly spicy. We also got Mango Shakes and bottled water. The shakes were thick and creamy, with a tropical sweetness that complemented the savory foods well. A terrific way to calm down and finish the meal. Atmosphere-wise, the setting was clean, family-friendly, and busy--but service was efficient. You could tell this place is popular among locals, and for good reason. Whether you're a local or a guest, Bamiyan Kabob is a must-stop for anyone looking for hearty, tasty Afghan cuisine delivered with real friendliness. Just don't forget your Canadian dollars!
