The food is delicious. Try the kabuli pulao- it's so flavorful and satiating. The couple that run…read morethis place are adorable as well. Such a little gem!

Ate there one day at lunch based on the Yelp reviews. In no way did my experience reflect anything…read morelike the positive Yelp reviews I read. Food had reasonably good flavour and the owners were nice. That said the food was openly microwaved from pots of cold food sitting nearby and presentation was 'slopped' on the plate. Have had great Afghan food before and this was far from it. Pretty disappointed. I certainly won't be going again. My guess is these wildly positive reviews are posted from the restaurant owner's friends and family. Or maybe in a smallish city like Freiburg it gets extra points for being 'exotic.'

Delicious food, very fresh and aromatic. Nice range of dishes. The garden side terrace is roomy and…read moreinviting. The interior had an intriguing mix of ethnic and modern blend. The waitstaff worked seamlessly together. Many had strong English and worked with us to gain understanding of some of the less common ingredients - quite humorously (aperol sprtitzer we decided was a tangerine and grapefruit flavored cocktail). Wonderful selections of refreshing spritzers, wine and beer.

Food: Nice food for a good price. unfortunately we wanted to order two different things but they ran out on both of them. but the other meals they suggested were nice too. Service: very friendly and fast service. Ambience: The interior is very nicely made and they have a big table (in the pictures) if youre coming as a big group. Very cool!

This is our favourite restaurant in Loerrach and we have lived here 11 years, so we have tried most…read moreof them. I am from the bay area of California and used to a huge range of cultures and food, as well as only good restaurants (the bad ones don´t last). The food is exceptional, and unlike anything I have ever tasted locally with unique flavours and spices in each dish. It has been owned by an Afghan family for over a decade. Even blindly ordering you will find yourself with something delicious and made with pride and care. Unlike most of the "Chinese" places they use fresh ingredients (not frozen) and proper veggies (Corn, carrots and peas in Chinese food?). Even ordering blindly (as we did at the beginning) you are guaranteed to get something yummy. Just watch the "spicy" level and ask for extra bread to eat with. We LOVE the rice with pistachios but even the plain white rice has a very special flavour..slightly like ginger and butter.. The orange lentils are delicious, as are the lamb on the bone, the chickpea salad, and my favourite: amazing eggplant appetiser. They also do take out quickly..perfect!

I went to this place on a Saturday night, fully prepared to wait an hour and contemplate all my…read morelife choices in the lobby--but surprise! I was seated immediately. The atmosphere was gorgeous--like stepping into a beautifully decorated ethnic Pinterest board. The service was friendly and on point (no disappearing servers playing hide and seek ). I ordered the Kabuli plaw, and honestly, it was so tasty I briefly considered proposing to it. Overall, I had a great time and highly recommend this place--though ironically, I also recommend making a reservation unless you enjoy bonding with strangers in the waiting area.
