Meat skewers

The aromas of Afghan spices are truly aromatherapy for the soul! From the moment you walk in, you know you're in for something special. The flavors are incredible, the food is prepared with care, and every visit leaves me wanting to come back for more. The hummus is hands down the BEST I've ever tasted! The eggplant dip paired with fresh naan makes for an absolutely delicious appetizer, and my go-to entrée is always the shawarma paired with a delightful basmati rice, and let's not forget the baklava! It's easily one of the best I've ever had, with that perfect balance of sweetness and flavor. The stellar reviews this restaurant receives are absolutely well deserved. There is genuinely something for everyone on this menu, and I have yet to find a dish that disappoints. If you appreciate authentic flavors, beautifully seasoned food, and a memorable dining experience, this place is a must-try! My only wish? That they would open a location in Northern Colorado Springs! We drive approximately 45 minutes to their Cheyenne Mountain area location, and let me tell you, it's worth every single mile. I've become a regular because the food is just that good. If you're on the fence about trying this restaurant, consider this your sign. Come hungry, bring your appetite, and prepare to fall in love with Afghan cuisine. You won't regret it!

Love love love this place. It was the first place I stopped at when I moved to CO. 10/10 would recommend and go again! The staff is friendly and welcoming. The restaurant is clean and has a good amount of seating. I've taken a few friends here and they loved it too. The meat is so tender and flavorful. I love the spicy chicken and the lamb. The chickpeas are delicious and so is the rice! Also do not sleep on their desserts they are ridiculously good!!! Baklava is to die for.

Food: This is my first time with Afghan foods, but every bites I taste are mouth watering. From lamb chops til combo meat plate, meats are so well marinated, juicy & tender. Paired well with rice & delicious fluffy naan! The combo came with bean in spicy coconut based soup that you can dip with naan. Also, refreshing side salad. Portions are generous compare to fair prices tagged. Cream horn dessert is so light, yummy & filled with deliciousness. Service: Ordered at the cashier then they will serve you foods. Foods around by 15 mins. Friendly staffs & they gave veteran discounts! Ambiance: Clean bathroom with dyson airblader! Nice comfortable booth & chairs. Perfect for family meal or co-worker meet up. Sum up: Even though, Shah located almost 30 Mins from my house but I'll definitely try to eat there again :)

Super tasty and authentic Afghan food in the springs. I really was impressed with how juicy and tender the meats the served were. Portions were huge for the price and it was restaurant quality food! Will definitely be back and will recommend this to anyone willing to try something a little different!

I cannot say enough good things about this place! I food is soooo good and fresh. The owner is always super nice and is usually there working as well! I miss living around the corner from it haha. If I'm ever in the area, I'm definitely stopping by to get my fix.

Chicken and lamb combo plate with am extra side of falafel.

Solid family-run spot. Well-seasoned grilled meats, excellent fresh homemade and from scratch naan and crisp, herbaceous falafel. A few sides needed more care.

Shah Kabob House is always our favorite! We ordered the family meal for New Year's Eve Lunch/Dinner. Everything was amazing except I did order 5 extra naan and they forgot them. We had 6 people to feed, so not everyone was able to have a full naan. Either way, the food not only fed all 6 of us, we all had more later on for dinner. Lots of food and amazing as always.

Cheesecake Baklava

The food was delicious! I ordered the falafel. However, the highlight for me was the cheesecake baklava. I had never heard of such a thing. They were melt in your mouth AMAZING! The staff was very friendly and genuine. I will definitely be back!

Main menu

Clean, well organized, big portions, fairly priced. Lamb kebab was lean, tender, moist, perfectly seasoned and delicious. Salad fresh and crisp. Chickpeas flavorful and spiced right. Plenty of everything on the plate: perfect lamb, salad and big fresh homemade naan, lightly seasoned basmati rice, chickpeas. They offer beef (steak or ground), chicken, three cuts of lamb, felafel, wraps, five desserts and five appetizers to choose from. Everything I tried was perfectly prepared and fresh. Looking forward to trying more!

Steak plate- cooked medium with chickpeas and salad

Food was delicious-- we came in with 3 kiddos and everyone enjoyed what they had. Gyro, steak, and the falafel were all well seasoned. I order falafel often and this by far was in the top 3 I've had. Portions were generous. I split one gyro plate between an 8,5, and 1 yr old. I love baklava and ordered some to share for the kids- it was their first time having it and they loved the sweet treat. Staff was friendly, attentive, and the food came out fresh/piping hot. Highly recommend if you are in the CO Springs area.

My favorite food place to eat in the springs! I will always make an effort to eat here when visiting. The service is not that long of a wait. Military environment but well deserved due to the quality of food.

Delicious! Everything tasted amazing, and it was the best hummus I've ever had! Would definitely come back :)

Chicken, ground beef, lamb
Jacqueline R.

We had the chicken, lamb and ground beef kabobs. Couldn't really tell the difference between the lamb and ground beef. If you've ever had both you know this is concerning. The chickpeas were good. They tasted like traditional refried beans, which was odd but good. The downside was there was only 3 bites of them and they were the only part of the meal I actually was happy with. Salad was ok, nothing special. The baklava was delicious but scammy. The website advertises a portion twice the size that we received. I felt conned. While it may have been great, I would have never ordered it had I realized it was so tiny. It's not worth the price at all. The eggplant borani was also not as expected. In addition the presentation and prep issues, the eggplants seeds were overwhelming. If someone had told me they added lemon seeds I would have believed it. We eat eggplant at least once a week so for me to say I took issue with them is no joke.

What an unexpected find in Colorado Springs!…read more We're visiting from California and originally stopped at another Indian restaurant that's well known for its buffet. After seeing the food, it just didn't look very appetizing to us, so we decided to try Urban Tandoor instead -- and we are SO glad we did. We grew up in Delhi, which is arguably the food capital of India, so when it comes to North Indian food, our taste buds can be a little demanding! From the moment we walked into Urban Tandoor, we were pleasantly surprised by the beautiful atmosphere and warm hospitality. Then we saw Rumali Roti on the menu -- something that is surprisingly difficult to find at Indian restaurants in the U.S. -- and immediately knew we had to try it. For dinner, we ordered the Seekh Kebab, Rumali Roti, and Dal Makhani, and everything was excellent. The flavors were authentic, well balanced, and genuinely reminded us of food back home in India. Our server, Aaryaa, was incredibly pleasant and made the entire experience even better. We enjoyed the food so much that we actually came back the very next day for lunch! This time we ordered the Tandoori Platter, another Seekh Kebab, and of course, more Rumali Roti. When you're visiting a city for only a short time and choose to eat at the same restaurant twice, that probably says everything! On our second visit, Dev took great care of us. He was welcoming, personable, and genuinely enjoyable to talk to. Thank you, Dev, for the wonderful hospitality. Urban Tandoor gave us something we weren't necessarily expecting to find while traveling through Colorado Springs: authentic Indian flavors that brought back memories of Delhi. Great food, great atmosphere, and even better hospitality. Absolutely worth the visit -- and clearly, for us, worth visiting twice!

I asked my waitress if I could have the SAAG with salmon since they have salmon on the menu, versus…read morelamb, goat or chicken. She went and asked, returned and said yes however, they would need to charge me for two entrées, the salmon entrée, and the SAAG entrée. What sense does that make?. What Restaurant can't swap out a protein with another, gladly pay a few dollars extra but to pay $25 for each entrée? I ended up ordering the tandoori salmon which came barely warm, the masala sauce on the side and the rice were also barely warm. My companion said her meal was barely warm as well, butter chicken with rice. A waitress takes your order, and then a stupid robot carries it out for the server, Manager in tow, removes the plates from the robot and put it on your table. How long were our entrées sitting inside the robot which is not enclosed before it arrived at table? My friend suggested this place, I remember it being pricey three years ago when I visited last. My go to for Indian cuisine is Pakwan, Turmeric or Shri Ganesh. Next time!
