Our order
Tina C.

I've been here 3 times now and the food is always top notch. Everything is fresh and very delicious. No matter if you are getting chicken or beef kabobs, lamb over rice, eggplant, or even fries. Everything is always very good. Customer service is also amazing. I spoke with the owner tonight as they were out of eggplant and he made sure I was happy with a choice of substitution. He also gave me some of the babaghanoush to try since I love the eggplant dish. Everything is well seasoned and delicious. It's also a cute place inside. They've decorated nicely. I highly recommend you try this gem.

Chicken plate

This is now one of my new favorite spots! The customer service was amazing. He was so friendly, and very helpful as it was our first time there. The restaurant was clean and pleasant. Portions were generous, and my chicken kebob had a nice char taste but still very juicy. The garlic sauce and hummus were very tasty. My only complaint was wanting more pita bread, lol! Overall a solid GEM in Folsom and I can't wait to recommend this spot to my friends and family. Can't wait to come again :)

Chicken plate

How have I never been here, before?! WOW! I ordered the chicken wrap and it might just be the BEST wrap I have ever had. Ultra thin lavash bread, loaded with tender juicy chicken, pickles, spicy peppers, and so much flavor. My husband got the plate and it looked amazing as well. We will be back soon!

I came here after a Sunday noon swim workout craving middle eastern food. The place is located in a small strip mall across from Folsom town hall. When I heard they are an Afghani restaurant I was excited because I love the flavor and seasoning of Afghani food. I got the Combo Kabob with lamb and chicken. They were perfectly prepared and tender and complimented well with the fresh salad, humus and side sauces. I also loved the baklava which was small sized but very moist and satisfying. The server was very friendly and explained they are constructing an oven to prepare their bread in the future. I will return soon!

Amazing experience! The chicken tikka kebab was absolutely delicious--one of the best I've ever had. The restaurant was very clean, and the atmosphere was great. Ali and the staff were very friendly, welcoming, and attentive. We called ahead, and everything was ready when we arrived. Excellent food and service. Highly recommend!

Combo 10. Mix Kabob Plate

This is the best Mediterranean food I have ever eaten in my life. Eating other Mediterranean food other than this is just gonna piss me off. I highly recommend and would not hesitate eating here again. I wish I lived closer.

Afghani wrap
Dan P.

This has become one of my lunchtime go-tos. Really excellent fresh tasting food made with care. I love their wraps with grilled meat or falafel and their tasty sauces which you can get in mild, medium or spicy. Wraps are made with thin lavash flatbread, which is hard to find around here. The lavash tastes fresh and the wrap is given a nice grilling before it is served. Their Afghani wrap has french fries in it too, which is a great complement to the meat, sauce and veggies.

I serendipitously came across this restaurant by chance. I ordered the combo kabob dinner and it was so delicious!! Definitely a 5 star food offering. The humus was fresh, the rice and salad was perfect. The lamb was super tender and the chicken was juicy. It's my understanding that the restaurant has only been open for a year and was previously a food truck. Service was also great. Regarding, the ambiance, the restaurant is going through some remodeling and I'm looking forward to seeing the result of this transition. Thank you.

Hummus, lamb kabob, grilled chicken, salad and rice

I got the combo dish to go and ended up being too hungry so decided to eat it there! The grilled chicken was really good and the lamb kabob as well. I asked for the garlic sauce which was to die for and the hot house they make In house is also delish. Everything is fresh and the hummus that comes with the plate is good as well. I didn't care for the bread but overall everything else was really good.

Chicken Gyro plate + lamb kabob plate

I get gas at the station just across the street where this spot is. After reading Yelp reviews we were not walking, but running there! It was a quiet week day evening; we were quickly helped. Owner did let us know it would be about 15-20 minutes because of the kabob and everything is made to order. We definitely don't mind time for quality! When he brought out the plate, I swear we might've both drooled a bit just from the aroma. The flavors of the meat, rice, hummus, fresh salad + light olive/vinegar oil dressing was just such a lovely taste bud experience! We also tried a few different kinds of baklavas + Turkish Delights to top it all off. This place will be frequented by us!

I do love this place bc the chicken is so fresh and has such a yummy batter, but when they first…read moreopened, they had this spicy orange sauce that was my FAVOURITE hot sauce I've ever had! I don't know why they replaced it with the nashville hot sauce but I miss it so much. Please if you see this bring it back, I would buy a bottle of it!

Came here again with the family and ordered on the Kiosk again. (We love that we can order from the…read moreKiosk ourselves) Sometimes, they're out in the back cooking and if we need to help ourselves, we do with the Kiosk. Music wasn't too loud, Tables were relatively clean for a Thursday afternoon and Service was very good. I noticed the guys working on the food after we order, I had no idea it was made it order. That's absolutely amazing. It takes a few minutes, however the food is soooo worth it. The buns are Martins Potato Buns and of course, being Martins they're super tasty! A lot of High end chains use Martins so naturally, I was happy to see the brand. (These buns stay together but when sauced they like to slide and that's how I could tell it was Martins! After our food, we were able to get lids and to-go boxes just by asking the gentleman working there. I think his name was Andrew if I remember correctly. There's a small crew working here that is very nice and hard working. I've never once seen any big issues here and the food is pretty consistent. There are some small changes here and there, but the food overall is very good compared to other restaurants. This place isn't even a chain and it's super tasty. I wish they were closer to where I live because I would end up eating here 2-3 days a week. It sucks my daughter can't have this food otherwise I'm sure she'd love this one too. She has a peanut allergy, and they do use peanut oil as I asked the last time I came here. (do your due diligence and make sure you ask about allergens if you are allergic to peanuts) They do in fact, use Peanut oil. If you want some good food, This is a place to try. I've been here a couple of times already. Don't expect this place to be your typical fast food. They're not your average fast food because if anything, it is fast casual. Service is very well. I can't imagine Andrew having a single bad bone in his body. If you want cheap frozen ready to go food, this is not the place. If you want something made to order, then this is your jam. Only thing I can mention: Soda selection is smaller than usually used to when I eat outside of home. Honorary Mention: Service is killer dude's an Angel. (Stubborn Brand Root Beer), Martins Potato Buns, Crispy Steakhouse Fries and Suuuuuper Tasty Mac & Cheese. The next time I stop by, I will try their Sweets and Update my Review. Overall, this place gets a solid and VERY thought through 8.9/10. That is my rating before, that is my rating again. If you like those One Bite Pizza Reviews by Dave (El Pres) Portnoy, That's how I Scored this place. Thank you for reading my Updated Review! H.A.

decided to check this place out since i have seen it recommended as a popular halal spot, and my…read morepartner and i were in the area. we received very friendly and welcoming service (i even had to remove my shoes for a bit to dry off from an earlier lake excursion, and they didn't seem to mind--don't worry, we tipped well!) and they shared what the popular menu items were which helped us make a decision. our food came out very fast, and piping hot! we ordered a milk tea, chicken curry, and tofu pad thai. the chicken in the curry was nice and tender, and there were even added potatoes which were a nice touch. the side salad dressing was great. milk tea was flavorful, though i was expecting more of a thai iced tea flavor, so note that it is truly more of a milk tea. the tofu pad thai was very yummy! we ordered everything mild and it stayed true to the name, as nothing felt too spicy for me. my partner, who can be a bit of a food critic (even though i'm the yelp reviewer!), rated the service and food as "excellent." he said, "the service was so good i would come back even if the food was bad." good thing the food is very good too! they have outdoor seating which was appreciated and helped me dry off. the interior is very nice and the bathroom was very clean -- good functioning toilet and paper towels (not a dryer fan personally). my partner has been begging to go back, so we will be back soon!

Ten stars! If you've ever been to Burma Burma in Dublin and you happen to find yourself in the…read moreFolsom area, then you're in luck! This is ran by the same owners and is such a delight! Everything from the decorations to the menu is exactly the same as the Dublin location which is one of our favorites and that immediately put us at ease to know that we were in good hands! For anyone that is unfamiliar with Burmese food, it is essentially a fusion of Indian, Thai, and Chinese cuisines and features the best aspects of all three. We ordered over ten dishes and all kept somehow getting better and better! The flavors were out of this world and the spices were perfect! Dishes that I especially recommend: -Eggplant Garlic Shrimp -Basil Chilli Swai -Coconut Rice -Tea Leaf Salad -Pad Thai with Chicken -Sesame Beef -Palata with Chicken Curry -Coconut Noodle Soup The food was impeccable and the staff were super friendly. Great AC inside, big tables, and comfortable booths. If you're in the area you GOTTA give this a try!
