    Bolani - potato (to go)
    Mahia Z.

    Feels like home to be honest. Ariana Kabob is the ONLY place in Atlanta I come to for chapli kabob, besides my mom's house The food is ALWAYS consistently good. We usually order take out through Uber eats, and it never misses. My husband loves to get their nandos wings and mantu. Everything is always delicious. And of course it's halal Even though we usually order take out, Ive been to the restaurant twice. I'm not sure if the man in the front is the owner but both times he has helped us, and he is so kind. The food comes out very quickly and is always perfect in every way. I love the art on the walls, especially the painting of the Afghan girls in traditional clothes. And there is always the best Afghan music playing on the tv in the back. Truly feels like home.

    Banjan eggplant appetizer
    Monica L.

    I went here around 2 weeks ago. It was a weeknight and we were the only ones dining in. That worried me a little bit, but I was wrong. While we were there, many people came in and picked up to go orders. It seems like they were regulars. This made me feel better. The menu is big enough that everyone can find something to eat. Bread, rice, chicken, lamb, kebabs and the list goes on. If memory serves me correctly, my friends and I (4 of us) shared an eggplant appetizer (Banjan), 2 naan breads, rice, salad, a potato filled bread (Bolani), a tikka lamb kebab, a koobideh kebab, a tandoori chicken kebab and a Karahi chicken. I have to say that I was not a big fan of the eggplant appetizer but it wasn't bad. Everyone has different tastes. The Bolani was definitely my favorite. So much so that I took an order home for my folks to try. They compared it to Korean pancakes (which I actually did too). The bread was soft and crispy at the same time. The dipping sauces were yummy - one yogurt and one herb based. Soooo good! The Karahi Chicken had a great flavor and the sauce was delicious with both the rice and naan. The meat (all of it) was very tender and well seasoned. The only thing for me was that the lamb was a little gamey. For others it might not be. The naan was hot and right out of the "oven". The rice was so good that I probably could have eaten a vat of it by myself. It was perfectly cooked. I have to say that I was impressed at how well seasoned the food was. A lot of places are afraid to season their food and I always end up adding salt. Their food is seasoned perfectly. Not too salty, not bland, just the right amount of yum! I am pretty sure this is a family run restaurant. The young man that was taking care of us that night was super friendly and caring. He kept checking on us to make sure we had everything we needed and was all smiles. The ambiance of the restaurant is nice. Not overly decorated, not loud, just kind of quaint. I would totally recommend this restaurant. It's good to support your local businesses and as good as the food is, I can't see a reason not to! Also, it's right on PIB and there is plenty of parking.

    Chicken kaboodeh, tandoori chicken wrap
    Sheela K.

    This is worth a visit at least once! I've been to this place a while back I believe there were different owners and I didn't enjoy the food back then. We decided to try again to see if anything changed and it did! To start, this is Afgani cuisine with hints of typical popular Persian dishes - Chicken Kaboodeh platter - $20 This is something I'd most likely get the next time. The chicken kabobs are not spicy and are tasty at a mild level. The brown rice is delicious and not heavy like some other typical pulaos/polos. The salad on the plate is just cabbage and lettuce - Chicken Tandoori Wrap - $13 The bread/naan was delicious and I can see how it'd be tasty with a saucy dish. The flavor profile was amazing for this wrap however, the chicken was either undercooked, slightly raw or they chose a bad cut of chicken for a sandwich. It was like rubber and very less chicken. In this case it was a good thing less chicken. Please note this does not come with french fries or any type of side; just comes with the wrap. I also wish they gave more sauce on the side or some type of condiments were available maybe a spicy sauce. I took a star off for this All in all, I'd definitely come here again for the chicken kabob platter but I think I'm scarred from the wraps meat texture. I also think the price point is a bit too high for the ambiance. However, if this reflects high quality ingredients (saffron) and halal meat being used it'd make a lot of sense. This is like a quick bite to eat type place vs date night. The food is fresh and delicious. I want to try the banjan eggplant dish next time!

    Banjan (eggplant)
    Clay C.

    Delicious. Very clean. Friendly server. We shared the Banjan (eggplant) appetizer. It was great. Surprisingly filling with the naan. Not too salty and subtle flavor but very delicious. I had the Tandoori Kofta Specialty Combination (chicken cubes and beef kofta with rice). The chicken and beef were both amazingly flavorful. The kofta had little bursts of flavor from pieces of herbs embedded in it and the chicken was incredibly moist. The rice was delicious, covered in an oil an very fluffy. My date had the chicken wrap and loved it. Thanks to the eggplant appetizer, we both took half of our entrees home, as we were so stuffed.

    Goat karani
    Jim N.

    Plain and simple, the food is just awesome. Service was good and friendly. Our waiter took time to tell us about the entrees we ordered and how they cook each dish. Eggplant appetizer was so good we order a second one to take home. Lamb shank was tender and juicy. The flavor and meat just melt in your mouth. The sauce was flavorful but did not over power the lamb. Very well done. Goat karani was the best goat I've had. This dish was the star of the meal. The meat was so tender it was falling off the bone. A little spicy but not overwhelming and goes perfectly with the rice.

    Nice little family owned Afghani restaurant. The owner's sons take care of the hosting and serving at Ariana Kabob House and while it is not top tier professional service, they get the job done. The ambiance is upbeat Middle Eastern music with nice touches of Afghani decor. My mom and I dined in for an impromptu dinner and were quickly seated at a booth. The menu includes a large variety of Afghani dishes including rice, kabobs and varied cuts of meat. My mom found her new go-to spot for lamb kabob for $20--delicious and well worth the price. The rice was also perfectly done and well-buttered. I savored the tandoori chicken with a heaping portion of rice and a small side salad. Excellent food and flavor.

    One more TikTok influenced spot! For Mediterranean food they're not the best I've had. But their food is pretty good. Price is decent. I got the beef kabob and I like it. My friend's had beef and spicy but the chicken is dried. The server were really really nice and helpful. We got seated right away no wait. Everything looks clean and nice inside. I would come back if I'm in the area. My samosa is really good too. It's more spicy than the spicy chicken but I like it!

    Shinwary Chicken Karahi

    Delicious food! Went here for the first time yesterday on a Saturday night and the place was packed! I would recommend a reservation for weekends. The food takes about 20-30 min to get ready but it's worth the wait, everything we ordered was delicious! They have several booths and tables and a good sized parking lot. The ambiance is great for a family dinner but can get a bit loud

    Bagan (eggplant appetizer) and naan bread
    Suhana E.

    This is one of my fav spots for Afghani food. It's delicious. I get the koobideh dish :) it comes with rice and salad. I tried the appetizer of bagan (eggplant) with naan bread. That's delicious also. During month of Ramadan, they do have a spot in the back for prayer, if this is helpful for anyone.

The ambiance, decor and overall vibe is very upscale. Service was top notch, from the host to our server. Big shoutout to Kaleigh/Kaylie who was the sweetest and gave us the best recommendations. I always order the grilled wings because these are to die for, definitely a must!!! All of the dips in smaller orders we got were delicious with the complimentary bread, Muhammara with the walnut is my new obsession. For main entrées, we went with the Honey Harissa Chicken and the Lamb Neck along with an order of the buttery rice to share, with no regrets. The Harissa chicken was a classic spin, perfectly seasoned and paired with pickled onions and salad. The lamb neck was so home-y and rich, falling off the bone, with a perfect broth for the buttery rice. For dessert, we opted for the classic Baklava, solid classic one paired with rose water ice cream, and the Turkiramisú, which was a pleasant surprise, paired with turkish coffee such a delight. Overall an amazing dinner, perfect for solo, date night or groups. Parking is complimentary valet or self parking in the medical center next door.

The ambience was very traditional Mediterranean style, which made the experience feel authentic and warm. The restaurant was extremely clean, and you can tell they take pride in maintaining their space. I especially loved the open kitchen -- being able to actually see the food being prepared adds a level of transparency and makes the whole experience feel even more special. Everything was incredibly fresh -- from the crisp salad to the perfectly seasoned meats and fish. You can truly taste the quality in every bite. I had the green mint drink, and it was so refreshing and fresh -- the perfect addition to the meal. We chose the $45 dinner option, and it was absolutely worth it. The amount of food we received for that price was amazing -- generous portions, high quality, and full of flavor. It honestly felt like a great value for everything included. The staff was very friendly and attentive, which made the entire experience even better. Overall, 10 out of 10. We will definitely be back.

The manager or owner came by to see what I wanted to eat and I told him I am only here to spend time with my friend and not eat since I already ate. He felt offended some way so I said "I will share with my friend" please tell me in what language does share with my friend mean I want TWO orders of the lunch option? You can only order lunch or dinner that has a preset menu. Which includes couple of meats, dips and pita. We received one individual bowl of each item that was listed out, one basket of pita, and one set of meats. We got the bill and there were two lunch orders, so we told the server mind you he had been coming to our table the whole time and then sends his server to take our bill. We informed the server that we only ordered one lunch and we were being overcharged, manager then comes and said it was two orders and walks away. This is the first time I've encountered anything like that so beware! It's sad that he could not honor what was explicitly told and did this to us, because the food was good and I really wanted to bring my family here but not after this deceit
