    Hummus
    Ophelia M.

    Delightful! Stopped by Aria Kabab with a colleague last evening and had such a lovely experience. It's an order at the counter situation with the menu featured in lights above the counter. For my first experience here, my colleague and I shared an order of their hummus plate to start. I got their falafel over rice for my main and we shared a package of baklava (which was in a refrigerator near the counter). Their drinks are also grab and go in a refrigerator by the counter. Once you order and grab any refrigerator items, you simply grab a seat and they'll bring you the rest. While it has a fast casual feel, our food was brought on actual dishes with real tableware (not plastic) and they paced our order so we received our hummus app first and then our mains. The hummus was lovely. Topped with chickpeas and small olives with sliced pita bordering it, it was warm and comforting. There's plenty so I was able to put some on my falafel dish as well. Our server brought us three different sauces and so I was able to further flavor my falafel dish with sauce as well. The falafel was fried to perfection and came out freshly made. It was great! It comes with a small salad on the side of the plate which added some nice fresh and crisp vegetables to brighten up the dish. The dessert was the star of the show. Drenched in honey and perfectly nutty--it was an absolute dream. It's located in a small strip style mall so parking was easy-peasy and right out front. Our server was kind and efficient. Get to it!

    Plenty of parking.

    It seems this restaurant opened in Halfmoon just over two months ago and I've unfortunately overlooked it. It was the Yelp reviews that called my attention to it. I know nothing about Afghan food and have been wanting to try some. Looking at their menu, I was a little disappointed at first as I didn't see something that I'd never heard of before. While not as an Afghan preparation, I've had Tikka and Kofta dishes before at Indian restaurants. I've also had Shawarma and Gyro preparations at Turkish and Greek restaurants. Falafel has always been a favorite of mine at numerous middle eastern restaurants. And then I saw it! A dish served with lamb shank (I've written before that lamb is one of my weaknesses) that is the renowned national dish of Afghanistan served at weddings, parties, and special occasions - Qabuli Palow ($23.09). AI tells me that it roughly translates to "well accomplished," indicating the skill required to balance its complex flavors. I ordered the meal to go, as my wife did not see anything that was currently on her diet. I decided to bring her a side of Hummus ($9.44) so I wouldn't eat alone. Once I opened the bag at home, I realized the chef may have forgotten to include pita for the hummus. She enjoyed it in any event as it was creamy with olives, chickpeas, and diced vegetables on top. The container with the Qabuli Palow was very heavy. Upon opening it I admired the colorful julienned carrots and raisins over the rice pilaf. I assumed the meat was beneath it all. As my fork hit a piece of lamb as I went for my first taste, the weight at the end of the fork was much more than I was expecting. It kind of reminded me of the cartoon character fishing and seeing the fishing pole bend as he began to reel in what was on the hook. But instead of a dirty, waterlogged, old boot I had found a lamb shank, bone-and-all. A few forkfuls later I hit paydirt once again, a second lamb shank. This was definitely going to be a two-meal dinner. The lamb was soooo tender and flavorful. It was easy to remove it from the large bones. The rice was tasty and the spattering of raisins, some plumped up, gave a touch of sweetness to many of the forkfuls I was enjoying. The restaurant is clean and inviting with both tables and booths. If you are going to dine-in, it appears that you place your order at the counter and take a seat. I only saw orders to go during the short time I was there. I arrived at the designated twenty minutes after ordering and my order was immediately put together once I identified myself. There is one thing you should be alert to. If you place your order online for pickup as a guest, and you choose to pay in person when you pick up your order, you will be given the opportunity to include a tip during your online order submission. Once you arrive at the restaurant to pay, the computer system on the counter will give you a second prompt to add a tip, even if you already included a tip while placing your order.

    Absolutely delicious food! I went here on a weeknight and after ordering at the counter, you can choose one of their many tables or booths or take your food to go. I tried the hummus to start, which was so beautifully presented and tasted delicious. For my entree, I got the chicken kofta and tikka platter, which came with a small side salad and lots of rice. It was so good! I also loved their white sauce. And of course, I couldn't skip dessert so I tried their baklava. It was perfection! For drinks, they have water and soda as well as an assortment of non-alcoholic malt beverages, which I want to try next time. I definitely recommend Aria Kabab for a delicious meal in a relaxed atmosphere. There's also plenty of parking due to it being in a strip mall.

It being July 4th, Independence Day, I thought it would be an appropriate day to enjoy a hot dog. Just ask Joey Chestnut! I'm not going to reduce my # of *s because we really enjoyed our food and beverages. But I do have to question what I had to drink. The board said it was an Ommegang Grande Tripel stout at 5.5 ABV ($9). That level of ABV would be reasonable for a stout, but the color of the brew was golden like a typical Tripel, and not dark like the typical Stout. The bartender gave us a sample, and it was full of flavor with my wife noticing the vanilla tones that were described by the bartender. I didn't initially identify any specific flavor other than delicious and different than I would have expected from a stout. I also would not take issue with the posted 5.5 ABV. HOWEVER, a quick reference to Ommegang online as I write this says that it is a Belgium Tripel and the ABV is 9. Yes, NINE ABV! I would definitely have noticed if I were drinking a 9 ABV on an empty stomach. I also would have noticed it driving the car after finishing a pint within one hour. For those familiar with Utah Phillips, "It was good though!" But on to the food. We ordered a shareable Tot-Chos ($12.99) consisting of tater tots, tomatoes, avocado, cheese sauce, pickled jalapeños, and chipotle aioli. These were very tasty and not too spicy, with crispy on the outside and soft on the inside tots. My wife ordered the Sooo Cali ($10.99) hot dog. The black angus beef hot dog is very tasty even before it is topped with wild arugula, tomato, avocado, crispy onion strings, and spicy basil aioli. The combined flavors work well together on the Kings Hawaiian rolls. My choice was to try the Hogfather ($10.99) - a pork bratwurst with bacon chipotle onion jam, chipotle aioli, and miso ranch. The bratwurst was delicious and again, the flavors worked well together. BTW, my wife had a Grimm Nothing But Citra ($8), an IPA that even I found acceptable. We really need to return here more frequently.

This was the second occasion of my being invited by someone who was celebrating their birthday there. I'm not a big fan of chicken wings so I also don't consider myself a connoisseur. On this visit there were nine of us celebrating the birthday boy's 65th. I figured I was entitled to seven wings from the six different flavors that were ordered. I was satisfied after tasting just one from each flavor. All the wings were very crispy and the flats were a bit moister than the drums. In fact, my least favorite was a parmesan garlic drumstick. It came with no sauce, so it seemed extra dry. Treating the wings as my appetizer, I ordered The Heater from their Specialty Sandwiches and substituted sweet potato fries for regular fries. Served in a toasted hoagie were shaved Italian steak, sauteed peppers, onions, jalapeños, queso cheese, and melted pepper jack. My first thought was that the hoagie was going to be too massive and too much bread. But to my surprise, the bread was so fresh and soft that it easily compressed around the filling allowing the filling to be the star of each bite. The steak was tender and flavorful, there was not too much spiciness from the various peppers, and there was plenty of moisture. The sandwich was served while still very hot as were the sweet potato fries. Wings and sandwich, all went well with my pint of Guinness. They do not take reservations and will not seat your party until all members of your party are present. They will add you to the waiting list before all of your party is present. Once we were added to the waitlist it was thirty minutes before the rest of our party arrived due to traffic delays. It was then another thirty minutes before we were seated. This was a Tuesday starting about 5:30 p.m. I'd suggest aiming for a weekday after lunch if you have more than four people in a birthday celebration. Staff are well experienced with these situations and are friendly and helpful.

Bartender was friendly and responsive; we split the chicken bacon avocado sandwich and the bbq pulled pork mac. The chicken sandwich was nothing to write home about, but it wasn't bad either. The bun was a simple hamburger bun. The mac n cheese was top tier, came out piping hot and had a good amount of pulled pork and Cole slaw on it. Even between the two of us we had to take some home. Personally I would get regular Mac without the pulled pork next time. I also got a glass of the Italian pino Grigio which was pretty good and reasonably priced. Our meal came with free chips and dip, but we tried to hold out for the main course. I heard their burgers are divine, so I would come back for that and maybe get their home brewed beer.

The bartender seemed far more focused on socializing with friends, the hostess, and an off-duty employee than on serving the guests sitting at the bar. At one point, we sat for more than seven minutes with empty drinks at a bar that was nearly empty. Despite making several attempts to get her attention, we weren't acknowledged until another employee noticed us trying to flag her down and stepped in. Even then, there was no apology or acknowledgment of the delay. Unfortunately, this wasn't an isolated moment; it was the pattern throughout the evening. Conversations with coworkers & friends consistently took priority over customer service, leaving us feeling ignored despite the bar having very few customers. The food was still very good, but the level of attentiveness and professionalism from the bartender fell well below the standard.

An earlier email reminder from the Mealeo CEO that I had over $3 in Mealeo credits reminded me that this would be a good opportunity to place my order at Country Drive-In through Mealeo to take advantage of my rewards. I was initially surprised that upon placing our order at 6:30 pm that it was not going to be ready until 7:15. But when I arrived at CD-I at 7:10 I could better understand. They were slammed with customers. I let the pickup window know that I was there for my order, and they said they would check on it. At exactly 7:15 they brought my order to the window. Ahh, reliable efficiency! My wife had decided to order a Tuna Melt ($8.39), I went traditional with the Sausage sandwich ($9.59), and a large order of Homemade Onion Rings ($7.19) for us to share. The Tuna Melt had little if any tuna flavor, very disappointing. The Sausage was one of the best I've had from them (there have been some off years recently). It was just greasy enough with the peppers and onions on top of the sausage patty that the fresh and soft brioche bun (not the hard roll indicated on the menu) prevented any loss of drippings for a flavorful bite each time. The onion rings were perfect this time also. Not overly greasy even as they cooled down. All of this is why we keep returning every season.
