Overpriced place with the quality of food that was offered. Nothing much to expect from the decor. Service is quite good. I had high expectations from the food. But as there’s not much Afghani restaurants around the place, this is the best you could get.

Aush, Chapli Kabob and Pulaw we’re all incredible. Everything was uniquely delicious and the service from Hamyoun and the rest of the staff was perfectly attentive without being overbearing. The ingredients are obviously intentionally selected for high quality and freshness. Absolutely 10/10 would recommend when in Cambridge!

This restaurant was recommended to me by an Afghan friend and I loved it! The baklava was the best I’ve ever had!
