    Lovely upscale ambience and decent food sums up this place. I really appreciate good authentic Infian food when traveling and Al Hamra checked all the boxes. We were adventurous and ordered spice level 8- Please don't go beyond 5....

    We were pleasantly surprised by delicious Indian cuisine. My husband and I came in on a Tuesday night and enjoyed delicious wings as a starter. We ordered tiki masala and vegetable korma as entree and shared a Taj Mahal beer. Our server was friendly and attentive. Their food was hot and tasty. Indoor and outdoor dining. Lots of parking out front. We will be back soon!

    You know this place is legit because you see lots of Afghan families eating here regularly. And no…read morematter what you do, order the hummus. Trust me. Their naan is reminiscent of pizza dough. It's always fresh and it's baked in-house in their tandoori oven. It's probably some of the best naan ever. And the hummus is thick. I was there yesterday and unfortunately there was a strand of hair in my food. It was a little unsettling to hear the server say "again?!?!!", but he promptly took it away, replaced it, and comped my meal. Despite the slight hiccup, I still enjoy this place. And I appreciate the good service. The portions are huge so it's better to share with someone or plan on taking leftovers. I like their mantoo and their kubli pulao. If you're with a group of people, it looked like the family meals were the best value. The parking lot is small, so plan on parking on a side street if the spaces are all taken. Afghan food is similar to Greek food so don't feel intimidated. And the server is awesome at guiding newbies at getting dishes that will suit your palette.

Our favorite dish is meant too, these wonderful little dumplings. They go quite well with spinach. I also ordered the lamb shank this time and it is so tasty; it had obviously been slow cooked, and it was very tender. The ambience is fine. Afghan things hang on the wall nothing really to comment about. The service is great. It's a family business and they really do take care of you. I don't think anybody would go wrong by trying a meal here.

    This is a neat family establishment. The mother is the chef and Khadija (forgive me if I botched…read morethe spelling) is the daughter and our server. They were so welcoming. I am still learning about middle eastern cuisine so the chef described some entrees. I told her about a Pakistani dish I really enjoyed and she made me a similar chicken dish that isn't even on the menu! What I love about middle eastern food is that it is so fragrant and a full scale sensory overload. It looks, smells and tastes all at once. Khadija was adorable and very outgoing. I was super impressed by the whole vibe. All of the other patrons were probably far more familiar with the cuisine, but we felt welcome and were so honored that they presented something off the menu for me. I plan to try the regular menu dishes next time. The naan is outstanding, too.

    We have been here four separate times now, and it has become our go-to spot for Indian food. We…read morereally love Indian food and have tried other places, but none of them do it like this location. Every time we come, we end up ordering the same thing because it is just that good. We even joked about trying something new, but of course we ordered our usual again but we recently found out they have a buffet on Sundays, which is really nice if you want to try different dishes or expand your palate! The garlic naan is always a favorite, super savory and hard to stop eating. You can also choose the spice level for the masala. We finally tried the spiciest level, and I would say to be careful with that one. We would recommend medium instead. We are Hispanic and even for us the spiciest level was a little intense on our gastrointestinal system, but we still ate everything. If you want authentic Indian food with great spices, this is the place to go. It is usually pretty empty when we visit, which surprises us because the food is so good. We hope this place gets longer waits and we will definitely be eating here many more times.

They do tend to run on the spicier side so I always get mild. Their portion sizes are on the small size but its a decent meal for one and I prefer quality over quantity.

The language barrier with our server made it impossible to communicate. He was a kind man, but he was extremely slow with service. He rang us up for an expensive shrimp dinner that we didn't order and when my boyfriend pointed out that we didn't order it and our bill should be adjusted, he took the bill and then proceeded to bring it back unchanged. Then my boyfriend just gave him the card to check us out while I visited the ladies room. The stalls were so filthy, I've seen cleaner gas station restrooms. Repulsed, I just went back to the table while we waited an additional 30 minutes for our waiter to run the card, for the meal we were overpaying for. Never again. I will not ever return. What a nightmare.
