a plate of food
Pamela R.

My husband is addicted to @kandahar.kabab and got me addicted too! Their veal is cooked to perfection! The service is a little slow so if you're in a rush I would suggest you ordering an advance and coming to pick it up. But if you're eating here for lunch and dinner just be warned that there's a lot of families with their kids which is fine with me. There's about 20 seats within the restaurant. The best part of any of the meals and you get is the bread and the sauces that come with. There's a yogurt and parsley sauce as well as a spicy sauce which I usually get extra to eat with my rice and meat. This is our go-to place for any kabobs!

Grilled veggies.

Don't get be fooled with website pictures. Their grilled veggies means one grilled tomato and one grilled onion. Meat quality is good. Rice are all sticky. More quantity over quality.

Chicken kabab with rice and salad. It comes with a pita. I asked the salad dressing to be held and it was on it. My friend sent it back!

It has been a few years since I first reviewed Kandahar Kabab. I went back a few times this week. Things have changed and so has my perfect-star rating. I have it down to 3.5 stars. The food still tastes good. In the past, the side salad consisted of sliced cucumbers and tomatoes. These days, you get short sticks of them. On Monday, my boyfriend and I were there for lunch. Our usual place, Royal Jasmine, was closed due to water damage from the ice storm last weekend. We decided to give this place a try. He had never been there. He got the beef kofta, which consists of two ground beef skewers. He opted for salad only. I went with the chicken kabob (you get one skewer) with rice and salad. I had asked for no salad dressing on my salad. The woman said that could be arranged. I also got a can of Diet Coke. They call your order number on the speaker system. Your order number does not get called numerically. It does sound like a random generator the more you listen in. Our order was ready. We went up to fetch it. I got to my table and noticed that there was dressing all over my salad. The problem is that the dressing has dairy in it and I am borderline lactose-intolerant. My boyfriend took my food back to the order area and asked for a fresh salad without the dressing. I got a clean plate with everything I had originally wanted. The food was good. The chicken morsels were seasoned nicely and juicy. The salad was crisp and good. You also get pita bread with your order. We went back there for lunch on Tuesday. I ordered the chicken tikka. I decided to not get the rice. Once again, I specified not having any salad dressing. Guess what? I got dairy salad dressing on my salad. Ugh! I asked to get my order corrected. Yep, it happened a second time. It was the same woman at the counter who didn't convey this detail to the guy preparing the food. We came back to this restaurant after work on Thursday. I got the beef kofta, as did my boyfriend. He ordered first. I then said that I wanted the same thing as he had ordered. The same woman taking the order paused for a good thirty seconds before she asked what I wanted again. I said that I wanted the beef kofta with salad, but without the dressing. Okay, so it takes the third try to not get dressing on top of my salad. I like progress! The problem? There were a couple. My boyfriend also didn't get dressing on his salad, either. He was okay with it. The other issue was that I never said I wanted rice. I got rice. The beef kofta is saltier than I recall. If you are on a sodium-reduced diet, the kofta is not for you. My rating has gone down to due getting my order incorrect three times this week on all three visits. It can pose a serious issue if you have a food allergy or a special dietary need, and you completely ignore it as a staff member at a restaurant. Yesterday, we both decided to go for lunch at a different establishment. We gave this place enough chances to get our order correct. Perhaps a few more tries, and it may be the case. (166)

chicken breast on rice - $12

kanadahar is always a go-to spot for me and my family but if your dining in, make sure to ask for a box because the portion and quantity is HUGE. i still am shocked at how they fit that much food on a plate. we are always taking home boxes filled of left over food because it is nearly impossible to finish more than half of their dine-in portion! the meats are tender, juicy and fresh. the rice has the perfect texture and aroma! also recommend to get their naan and dip it in their signature garlic sauce- its so delicious!

Chicken kebob (dark meat so moist)
Britany S.

It's really unfortunate when a business suffers due to customer service. This is probably the best kebab place I have been to on terms of food. They just add a little extra something that makes their food taste better and I prefer their condiments so kudos to the chef BUT the service is lacking. Not only was the wait for the food really long, the servers/cashiers were inattentive and too caught up in their cell phones and conversation to stop and help. I read that they have some sort if complimentary tea. I was excited to try it because I am a lover of tea. When I asked for it she said "the machine is plugged out," at that point I was so disappointed in the service I didn't even bother to ask her to plug it back in. Side note, the cashiers aren't mean they are just not customer service orientated. For me to give this place 4 stars I must have really enjoyed my meal.

Ah, sucks that this gem has such a low rating! Kandahar was my "go to" lunch spot from work as I used to work in the area. Now, if I am ever in town - this is one of the first stops. We usually get the Sardari kabab place and opt for 2 portions of just the chicken kabob. The chicken is super tender and soft - No idea how they get it so perfect every time. The rice is cooked perfectly and their sauces are off the hook. The naan can be a hit or miss - there has been times that we have gone and got cold naan which sucked. They also have a dish called "bolani" which is a flat bread stuffed with potato. They serve it with yogurt and it is super yummy and reminds me of my mom's homemade paranthas. I've also had a chance to try their "dough" drink which is an Afghani yogurt drink and it was delicious. For all the Poonjabs, it is basically our indian Lassi. Taking off a point because service can also be hit or miss. It's a family run business so if they are busy - they really don't know how to get their shit together and deliver. Its havoc and you can tell on the ladies face who seems to be the owner. But if you go on an empty day, then food is prepared nicely and its top notch quality! If they can work on better serving the lunch crowd - this place would be a total 5!

Yelp review of this place is totally contradicting with the google review. The true this is nice and big place with good quality food. The service was very quick. Their bread was amazing and it's so soft. I totally recommend this place to all foodies.

Save your money and don't come here. Dirty, rude staff, terrible food. I always support small businesses but this place, I lost hope.

This locations sucks!! Dont bother coming here and spending…read moreyour hard earned money supporting restaurants like these. I placed an order for pick up i told the lady that i wanted two dinner meals with tandoori chicken and kebab, everything seemed just fine. Picked up my order 15minutes later and when i was paying for my order i asked the lady for some extra sauce with the meals and she rudely says "NO, IT'S 50 CENTS EXTRA. I said since when do you charge extra for sauce and she points right at this make shift sign that states "extra 50 cents for sauce". Ofcourse i didnt pay for extra sauce!! Why should i? I mean all the other locations give the sauces free of charge. FYI: THE SAUCES PROVIDED WITH YOUR MEAL IS ONLY FILLED HALF WAY, UNBELIEVABLE!! Anyhow my experience doesnt end there, i got back to my place and opened up the meals and seen she only gaved me tandoori chicken without the kebabs. I immediately phoned the restaurant back and spoke to same lady that took my order and i told her, hey you only gave me tandoori chicken when i clearly asked for kebab as well. Now, was i charged extra and just got ripped off? Because tandoori chicken meals cost less She says she didnt charge me extra, she only charged me for the "tandoori chicken meals" but whats odd is the amount didnt add up to two meals of tandoori chicken, it was more!! Her response to the missing kebabs was SORRY I FORGOT and thats it WOOOOOOOOOW!! so i asked what are you going to do now? are you going to make the kebabs since they are clearly missing.. she says: nono sorry. 1. She didnt offer to make the meal correctly and for me to come back. 2. She wasnt honest that she indeed charged me for tandoori chicken and kebab. -instead i was given tandoori chicken meals. Never again. Worst customer service. "She forgot" aka deal with it. Take your money else where!!

Customer service wasn't that great. Some people were greeted with a smile and was explained in…read moredetailed for the menu, some were just cold business. Quiet restaurant which I like. The cashier who was also the server pick and chose to whom she will drop the food that you bought. Some were called to pick up at the front desk even if she was not busy. While some food were delivered at their table even though she had customers waiting in front of the desk to order. I won't go further to say why this was being done, make your own judgement yourself. Food wise not so great either. Wasn't given any sauce for the salad to eat with. Had to ask for a dressing because I saw someone got one without asking. Food was quite dry. Dumplings were not to my taste at all unfortunately. The skin was falling apart not in a good way. So mouchy. Didn't taste any good. Maybe not to my liking, make your own judgement yourself
