We love German food but needed a change of pace. This one had great reviews so we took a taxi from…read morethe Charles Hotel & gave it a try. So glad we did! The pumpkin starter was amazing. Yes I said pumpkin. It was in a spicy tomato sauce with some creamy yogurt which was perfectly balanced by the sweetness that in part came from the pumpkin. My husband had the grilled chicken kebab that said it was one of their grandma's recipes and it was excellent. Great marinade on the chicken, very juicy, nice char & tender and that saffron rice was a work of art. Cheers to the owners from a happy couple from Florida.

My group was staying near the train station and after 4 days of just Germany food we were looking…read morefor a change. We had read that Germany had very good afghan food and decided to give this place a try. It was excellent. The star of the night was the fried eggplant appetizer which we all were fighting over. It was delicious. The afghan bread/naan (it is similar to naan but a bit different and I'm not sure on the terminology) was incredible. Soft, crispy, chewy, it was the perfect vehicle to eat with the rest of our food. The yogurt drink was interesting and I'd recommend trying it, but it is different from lassi. It is salty and savory and refreshing, but I probably wouldn't have it again. This was, surprisingly, our favorite meal in Germany. Highly recommended.

The eggplant and tomato side dish was a meal in itself. Everything from lamb to chicken was delectable. And a brown basmati rice prepared with almonds, sliced carrots, and raisins!!

He told me later he was a Syrian, recently immigrated. We found common grounds to communicate. No problem with getting a meal ordered by me pointing at the great smelling meats being grilled and what the other patrons were eating. We ended up having one of the better meals we had in Munchen. Bread was fresh, stewed okra was nicely seasoned and cooked to a good consistency. The kebab was perfect. The lamb was tender and not over cooked. Great meal. Please see attached photos to get an idea of our meal.

Looking for new spots to lunch near our office in Lehel. Easy walk in a neighborhood with various…read moreoptions. The decoration is unique with interesting light fixtures but brocade couches. Looked like it's decorated for the evening but it didn't matter to our office crew. We really cared about food. Our table of nine ordered a variety of the lunch specials. The chicken and rice (which all said was very good and looked great), aubergine with minced meat, and the lamb with okra. I was expecting the lamb to be minced but instead it was cut off the shank. Fell right apart, like it is cooked in osso bucco. The okra had a nice tomato sauce and the rice green with some dill and spinach. Enjoyable. Oh and try the sauces on the table - red is a bit sweet like fruit jelly and the green has a kick. Each lunch meal is served with the soup of the day - today was noodles with vegetables. The chicken dishes were 9 Euro and lamb 10 Euro. Food came fast. Service was fine. One mistake - a mineral water went on the bill as 50 Euro (yes, 50) but that was easily noticed and fixed. Solid choice for a lunchtime meal in the neighborhood.

We had a fantastic dinner, the food was amazing and had a well-balanced, oriental touch to it. The restaurant itself was nicely decorated and had a relaxing touch to it. Walk-Ins are possible, but I would recommend to make a reservation. One star less for: the service that was rather slow and not all too friendly (but also not unfriendly); the kitchen fumes that are somehow nice, but not if your clothes still smell of the food the next morning; the clear fingerprints on the outside of the wineglass when it arrived at the table. Would nevertheless recommend this restaurant and come back.
