I stopped here by a chance, and I was amazed!If there is more than a 5-star rating, I would definitely give it to those guys!Everything was just perfect: the food, the staff and the interior decoration. This is gonna be my place in the South side of Chicago!
Excellent staff !!! I dont have enough words for how the good the staff is. Clean restaurant and the food was delicious. Love their bread. Reminds me of Middle East. Really good restaurant and this should be on your to go list.
Best food best restaurantThe best food I have had in my life. Me and my family come only here now. If you want good mashawi come here. I highly recommend it its so clean and good 👍
Hello everyone, I have ate here a few times in the past 2 years, the food was ok. I used to like the rice a lot but recently because of the increased price of raisins the owner stopped putting raisins in the rice. The hummus appetiser he brought out for our table of four was as big as a teacup plate. Plus on the menu we are supposed to get lentil soup with our platter but of course again because of the increased costs of food, the owner doesn’t give it out. Brother being cheap is haram. Ramadan Kareem Brother 🪚
Had a very disappointing experience here tonight, went with my family( husband and 2 kids )for iftar buffet, the food ran out before we could eat properly , when my husband expressed our feelings to the owner she blamed it on customers taking too much food, WHAT its a BUFFET!!! They have a sign taking about Haram but what is charging a family of 4 $130 dollars, and they didnt really even eat. The owner took no responsibility. Needless to say I would never come back
Food is absolutely delicious! The eggplant dip is one of the best I have ever had! Try the mix grill, so clean and super friendly staff!!!
Food lacked taste, flavor. Overall dint meet my expectation.
They were as friendly and welcoming as one can be and the food was absolutely delicious. Had the lamb shank and a kabob plate. I highly recommend this place!
Great food, first time here and got the small family platter. Got to taste a bit of everything and the meat was phenomenal.
We were originally going to Al Bawadi.. but saw this across the street. We thought to give it a try. The appetizers were excellent including the sauces and naan(!!). The tea was perfect. We ordered the grills that came with the qabuli pulow - the taste was great but the rice was a little too hard. We also ordered the mantu, which wasnt nearly as good as the Kabul house/express one. Good overall and great customer service!!!!
Amazing restaurant with delicious food. Restaurant looks good and the food is unique and tasty. I did the Ramadan Buffet and enjoyed it
Everything taste real good but when you get your check they already add the tips automatic on that’s not good because i was gonna tip $20 but they have it set up as 18% $16 so I left it as is
We went during Eid so they had a lot of people, but still took time to speak with us and take our order. The food was delicious
Food was delicious and tasty. The beef was slightly over salted but the quality of the food was fresh and delicious. The chicken was my favorite. Try the lentil soup.
This place is awesome.The appetizers were amazing. The lentil soup is so good you must try a cup . I ordered kabul mixed grill & it was so fresh and tasty. Even I was so hungry I couldn’t finish the plate.Very nice place for families or friends gathering.The prices are affordable.
First time there, they offer a buffet I think only for the month of Ramadan, the food too salty , and all they offer is rice, I was shocked by the price my self paid $33 , I dont mind to pay that price if it is worth it, disgusted, will never again enter an afghan restaurant.
My first time at this place. We ordered lamb chops , Kabul mixed grille, salmon kabab, naan, tea, appetizers which included a plate with salad, baba ghannouj, hummus and an onion/tomato/chilli based dip.The Naan arrived piping hot and fresh. The tea was spot-on with a hint of cardamom. The lamb chops were grilled perfectly. Not overly cooked or spiced..perfectly tender and juicy. Same goes for kababs (chicken/beef/salmon). The kabuli pulao accompanying the mixed grille was as authentic as it can get...very mildly spiced to perfection with super-long flavorful basmati rice.I have to say these were the best lamb chops I’ve had in a while. Will definitely be visiting again.
Delightful. Tasty clean and courteous.
Not bad. Friendly staff. Good presentation. Nice clean place. Heard their iftar at buffets are wonderful. A bit on the cozy side. A bit over priced.
Loved it! We went here randomly and were genuinely impressed by the high quality service. The food was absolutely delicious - everything from the appetizers (pictured here) to the main course.The Kabbli Pilau was awesome as well as the Mantu. Also, the Naan was cooked to perfection and the best Naan Ive ever had in the Chicagoland area. Highly recommend Kabul Kabob! Will definitely visit again iA!
As always another amazing meal at Kabul Kabob!! We love this place and come here often. They NEVER disappoint!! The food is delicious, we always order way to much and have left overs that we cant wait to eat!! The appetizers are so unbelievably delicious and the meat is perfectly seasoned and cooked. The owner and staff are so helpful and friendly, many good conversations, theyre always so welcoming! The portion and quality is well worth the cost, even with the slight increase due to covid-19, which they explain when they give you the menu. As always, another great meal, would definitely recommend!!! Should have 10 stars!
Great tasting plate of food - I ordered mixed chicken grill. Rice was so good and flavorful. Definitely coming back , customer service also good.
This is a storefront restaurant, and is not at all fancy. However, the food is off the charts excellent. The kabobs are tasty and well-prepared. the badinjan (roasted eggplant) is fascinating, and the appetizers (hummos, baba ghanoosh, etc.) are quite tasty. The wait staff is quite attentive and personable. In sum, a fascinating evening, and an excellent meal!
It was our first time we visited this restaurant..not a very good experience…customer service is pathetic so as the cleanliness though food was okay.Not the original Afghani menu taste but okay.Afghani rice are not kabuli Rice…Prices have been changed but verbally not on the menu card and upon asking the manager said we are hoping thatPrices will come down…lolSince than you will be charging customer the new prices without even letting them know???Doesn’t make sense…Food quantity is quite less.
Loved the food first time here! Awesome grade A+
The assorted salad/hummus appetizer is the best along with the afghani bread. However, our experience of entrée was ok!
Came all the way from NW IN to try. Food was amazing and staff was kind. Overall had a nice experience with my family and the food was delicious.
Terrible experience, they ran out of food at Iftar buffet and blamed other customers for it. And still charged our family of 4, $130 dollars. Its really sad that this is occuring during Ramadan or anytime for that matter.
Amazing food, great atmosphere. Staff is so friendly it’s like eating with family!
We just left Kabul kabab on 87th and harlem and it was great experience and i will be back till ramadan finish. The food was delicious and many dishes to eat
I had the chicken tikka lunch special which was $12 with the Quabuli rice and I really enjoyed it. Everything was very flavorful, and delicious. My coworkers had the lamb and beef koubideh which were great too.
Food is ok, food is kind of expensive and can easily add up together, the price is not worth the amount of food, Kabab is good, chicken is good too, the Pulao is nothing special, though I liked the red onion sauce, the Mantu was not good, just tasted like flour and beef, I could not taste the Lentils or the bland sauce, 3/5.
We had the pleasure to be served by Mariam, some of the best food we ever had, super clean facilities, friendly staff, most delicious, generous portions of meats and vegetables, and the famous afghan rice. Must visit and try for yourself, we came two days in a row, Thank you KABUL KABOB, you are awesome.
Previously I gave them 3 stars for good grilled items, but not 5 star because of bad Kabuli Pulaw. Now Im gonna give them 1 star because the lady has attitude problem, instead of improving the quality she said that I am mentally sick. Due to nature of my job I travel and eat all over in the USA and know the price and quality of most of the restaurants in the US. If you cant take criticism than why you open the restaurant? people are gonna make good or bad comments. To other customer she replied, If you want to eat Halal then you have to pay extra Ok Zabiha Halal meat is only $1/lb extra what about Soda? did you import form Makkah so you gonna charge 300% extra that cost you only 0.15 cents? ridiculous. To other Middle Easterners customer, she replied, this is is America not UAE. She also claimed that I am fake Pashtun or Afghan and she is real one....OK if you are a real Afghan then tell your father be a real man because real man or Pashtun dont shave their beards. Have a nice day
Someone recommended this restaurant to me and Im glad we went to try it. The kababs are juicy and tasty. They make fresh bread which was my favorite thing. The people working there are so nice and helpful. Definitely will be going back again.
Food was delicious! And staff is nice and helpful they made my first time in this place very comfortable. Definitely recommend! Also they’re bread is homemade fresh out of the oven and it’s out of this world!
My first time going there & I liked the food! All the Afgjan music, decor & tapestry was appealing. The food was excellent! Large portions & great customer service!
Amazing place and very delicious food.. big portion and tasty.. I ordered a mix grill with the sides (appetizers: hummus, baba ghanoj, salad and two other delicious dishes) they also have amazing bread served with the meal. Highly recommended!
Stopped here last week and WOW what an amazing dinner! The best chicken you will ever taste! The hospitality is superb. The owner was there when my family went and was very nice to use as well.
An amazing experience at an amazing place. Absolutely loved the food and the service, they did not disappoint at all. The dumplings were to die for and let’s not get started on the kabob mix it was too good. Loved the fact that everything was freshly cooked. Definitely cannot wait to come again. 10/10 recommend.
A family friendly environment, food and service was excellent! So glad we found this place, adding to our regular list! And 100% Zabiha Halal!!
Ground Chicken & beef kabobs had excellent flavor; filet & chicken cubes were flavorful but a little over done. The afghan rice is excellent. Menu overall a bit on the pricey side. Service very personable and welcoming from start to finish.
Best lamb chops in Chicago. Rice is flavorful. Cozy restaurant. Will return.
Great and really fesh food. The service was excellent and my food was amazing!!!
Authentic afghani restaurant. I loved the chicken kabobs.
Amazing food, great atmosphere. Staff is so friendly!
We went first time to this restaurant and he charge me extra money compare to what he is showing on his menu. When I called he told me due to increase of the beef prices he charge me extra. He has two menus just to confuse you. I will never go that place again who charge me extra money. If you want to get ripe off visit this restaurant. Wish I can give them below one star. Please fear of Allah before charging extra money.....
The service we received was not up to par at all. We kept being ignored and when we did get the waiters attention, we were dismissed. The restaurant was not busy when we were there, so we took an extra table to accommodate our guests. After asking for the bill multiple times, I kept being asked multiple questions. That led me to believe that they were trying to divert my attention from the bill. We were shocked to see we were grossly overcharged, with the bill being $480. When I asked before coming, I was told the total would be $109 per platter, we ordered 3. No matter how much you overcharge, it shouldnt add up to 480. We went to go confront the management about the outrageous bill but kept being told that they were too busy to talk to us.They wanted to refund $20 but we refused to take it. Management was rude and dismissive towards us. They also claimed since we took an extra table, that we “took business away from them” (when that was simply not true). I was happy with the food and was thinking of coming again. Due to the horrible experience, I will not come again.
This place is great! Excellent food. Making the customer happy is their main priority. We had the Beef Tikka Filet Mangon, Beef/Chicken Kufta and Qabuli Rice. The flavors were spot on! The owners are very nice. They explain each dish to ensure we enjoy our meal. We are definitely going to return for another meal very soon with our family. We definitely recommend this cozy place.
Food is delicious. Everything is great.
Haji Jamaal and his wife are exceptional hosts when visiting this restaurant for top class service. Amazing food, great ambience and excellent hospitality are a perfect combination to not only a successful restaurant business, but also for an enjoyable and memorable evening!
Wonderful family own restaurant with delicious food at each visit! We have dined-in, ordered takeout, and placed catering orders here over the last 6 months - with superb/consistent quality and service. All the kabobs, Kabuli pulow, and Mantu are excellent! Recommended it to family/friends and they’ve been delighted!
The food is very delicious and the service is great as well.. the place is very clean with amazing atmosphere..
Absolutely phenomenal food and the service was spectacular. We were treated like family and constantly checked up on.The mantu and Kabul mix was delicious. Will definitely come again next time I’m in Chicago.
I have had mostly good experiences, but there have also been a couple of times that they make the food super salty. That takes away from the taste as most of the time that it has been good had the perfect amount of herbs and spices including salt. It’s never bland or unseasoned so that’s good as I love flavor.
Tasty food, authentic , delicious. Neat, clean restaurant, very helpful, kind owner. Glad there is an authentic Afghani restaurant close to home!
We had it for takeout yesterday. The food itself was good but the takeout packaging soured our experience. The hummus, salad, mixed in with yogurt and curry dishes/ rice dishes - as the food box barrier was hardly sufficient, and some of the liquid fell too easily in the takeout bag.
I have dined here several times with my family. They food is consistently good. I have always found it to be clean and the staff is friendly. They always make great recommendations if asked.
Food was a bit salty , over priced portions.. service was good.
Have ordered from here twice now because I couldnt stop thinking about it after the first time! Very tasty food! We were sick of the standard chicken over rice fast food style middle eastern(?) type stuff that the majority of places in the area seem to be and this definitley was a pleasant change! Im not sure what all the sauces and salads we received were but I have to find out because I have some new favorites! Cant wait to order again!
I paid $26.98 for mix grill i didn’t care because I thought it would be worth it but unfortunately it’s not worth it. The food was ok but definitely not worth the $26.98 I don’t wnaa hear it’s expensive because it’s hala meat because that would be the dumbest excuse ever. I do not recommend going to this restaurant. It’s way way overpriced. Plus I really don’t know how the owner responded to customers reviews absolutely not professional at all.
Great food, large portions, fresh. 1st time trying afghan food but I was pleasantly surprised. Happy to come back again.
I have been here. Food is exceptional here. Authentic Afghan food which is very difficult to find in mid west. Owners are very warm and hospitable. Food is not only tasty but generous portions.
Kabul kabob is very good place have really delicious food and good staffThanks for your service
I wish I could give this place more than 5 stars!!! They have AMAZING food. And Im not exaggerating - not even a little bit.When I finally got to the try this place, the place was pretty lit. 3 big tables were taken and I didnt feel Covid-safe. But they were OK with me choosing where to sit.Staff gets swamped and it may feel like an eternity to get service (especially with the aroma teasing you), but once you get their attention they are extremely pleasant to deal with - despite the traffic and everyones needs.I will definitely be eating here more often. We were missing quality Afghani food on the south side.
Amazing food, awesome decor, friendly staff and owner. Lentil soup and bread is delicious. Definitely recommend!
Good customer service, appetiser was good, overall the food needs more flavour and seasoning. The meat texture was weird. Rice was overcooked maybe because was holiday and very busy.
We ordered the Mantu appetizer and kabob plater with chicken tikka, beef kubideh, filet, and lamb. The food was fresh and delicious. The service was great. Would highly recommend to anyone craving amazing Afghani food.
The best food ever! I came here from Streeterville on a train and in a taxi, and it’s definitely worth it. The food was fantastic and the owners are great! I will definitely be back. Love it!
This is the best middle eastern restaurant in the Bridgeview and Chicagoland area. Their kebobs here are juicy, flavorful, and FRESH. They use high quality meats and ingredients and everything we have always ordered is delicious. The environment is incredibly clean inside and out and they take great care with every order. If you are looking to cater a family event or party, I highly recommend ordering a few of the family platters. Everything is literally included with the family platters: different types of rice, multiple delicious grilled meats, salads, multiple appetizers, etc. I have ordered from them numerous times and have always been impressed. If you want a change from the same old restaurants in Bridgeview, stop by Kabul Kebob! They serve many homemade Afghan dishes that can not be found in any other restaurant in Chicago.
Great food, the service was amazing, the flavors are very good, the lights could be a little more dim, but others wise this place is an acid trip for your taste buds
One of the best restaurants around. Chicken and Beef Tikka were excellent. Service was good. They had prayer mats as well as we needed to pray. Will come back soon.
Excellent food. I order family platter enough to feed 6-7 people. If you are doing a carry out, arrive 10-15 minutes late.
For food, I wanted to give 4 stars, but for the owners behavior, I am giving 2 stars. His behavior was very bad and he was complaining about COVID, inflationand also that we went to his restaurant on a very busy night and thats why he had a shortage of carrots and raisins which he didnt put over Afghani rice. Half of the menu items were not available including water and dessert and he charged $2 each for water bottle. He is thinking that he gave us food at a reasonable price which is not true.We went to Bridgeview from Skokie for Fattoush restaurant which was fully booked and we regret why we didnt go to Albawadi restaurant which was across the street. Their service is good and they never charge for water or rice. Their 3 platters are big enough for four of us.I think owner of Kabul Kabob should change his attitude if he need customers.
This place is great! Our appetizers were amazing, highly suggest the mantu and shrimp. The lentil soup is so good you must try a cup. I got the lamb shank everything from the lamb to the rice and the sauce was so good I ate it all. The staff and owner are so friendly very nice to talk to. Even had some tea after we ate which was a nice touch to the end of our meal. Highly suggest going here.
We went for Iftaar buffet. Good service and amazing food!
Wow, I was extremely impressed with everything here. This is a small restaurant tucked away in bridgeview. It was filled with delicious food and amazing customer service! I expected the food to be good but it tuned out to be great!! We got the 4 people family platter and they served us fresh naan with delicious appetizers like eggplants and baba ganoush hummus and a few others. Definitely stop by here!!!
The food is delicious. The decor is magnificent, relaxing musiC. I had a great time with family. The server was smiling and very friendly service. Would definitely come here again. Try the Afghan mixed grill.
The food here is absolutely amazing! Best afghani food I have ever tried! The place is super cute and aesthetic. Also make sure to say hi to the owner, he’s super sweet and really cute:)
Absolutely delicious. Great environment and staff. Every bite was lovely and flavorful.
Love this place!!! Highly recommend! The food was fabulous and taste delicious. The food was perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection. There is great variety on the menu. The atmosphere and aesthetics are beautiful. We had the family platter, and the serving size was very generous. The kabobs, the chicken and serloin steaks were seasoned and grilled just right. Great tasting rice. And the variety of sides were very yummy. Would only suggest more serving utensils, and higher quality stainless steel serving utensils. Otherwise the service was great, super friendly staff. We will totally be back again!
So we placed the order online but for some reason their system did not receive it, even though I received a confirmation email. anyway spoke to the lady at front desk who was accommodating and went ahead to place the order (reason for 2atars). Food was ok, the chicken pieces were extremely hard to chew so we barely ate that. maybe we caught them on a bad day, but I felt a little disappointed.
You will be well fed with awesome food here. Get the Afghani rice, its awesome. Get the bread its awesome. All the meats are full of flavor.
Nothing I say is any different from the rest of the reviews. Their food is spectacular! The inside is so warm and cozy. We tried most of their meat dishes and each and every piece of meat was succulent! Cooked perfectly and seasoned differently. The lamb chops were, by far, the best Ive had ever! This is the place to go, no joke!
The food is great but aside from that the place is way over priced and they include a “service charge” AND tips in the bill “regardless if you want to tip or not”. A meal for 4 people with no drinks and no desert will run you a minimum of $130. In addition, the silverware and plates were damp and they didn’t include any knives. Won’t recommend
Amazing food, good service, best people ever
Their minced chicken koubieb was awesome. The crunchiness on the meat was so delicious. Ordered two items, both were good. Its not pricey too. Recommend ordering multiple skewers of meat to get the best for your bucks. Their menu is small but the quantity is good enough for one person if ordering lunch or dinner kabobs.
Great place & great people, they treat all customers like family. Keep up the good work!!
We are visiting from Iowa and wanted to try this place out. The food was AMAZING and the meat was so tender. I highly recommend this place!
If there was a zero star I would do. Coming on Ramadan weekend to eat kabab the place is not organized you can’t walk !!! Then extremely poor management 50 min no kabab. People behave really bad very low class just paid 50 dolors left the place HUNGRY MAD DISAPPOINTED and never ate what I want because people load a lot of food employees don’t know what to do no signs no control no management NO WATER !!!! You guys are extremely bad will never ever walk there again
Not only is the food amazing, authentic, but the service is STELLAR. We catered yesterday and there was a slight mixup. The manager was extremely nice, said I want your party to be perfect, and delivered me a tray of fresh kababs and rice! That too on a busy holiday. Thank you and we will be customers for life!
Best food quality everMy favorite place
We catered from here for my sisters bday. Everything was delicious and plenty of food to spare.I recommend for catering parties or even just to pick up food! Very good spiced rice too!
İts nice restaurant and tasty but its expensive they charged 4 dollars for tea and changed money for rice already in food
Tender meats, delicious rice, amazing sides.afghan bread was a little burned from the bottom not a big deal but something for owners to keep an eye on.we ordered fries for kids on side the amount they charge and the portion size was not fair something else for the owners to consider if they can improve couple of things this restaurant will go a long way.
The bread is fresh and delicious and so is the chicken skewers and kebab. Outside of that I found the rice items bland, meat seasoning fairly lite/unappealing and felt the service was subpar.
Great food with fresh meat and fresh bread. The service was amazing and left me with a good feeling. The restaurant scenery was beautiful showing of classical afghan building. Best restraunt I have gone to in a while. Great quality and large quantity.
We went there for Buffet dinner during ramadan. We were expecting different varities of kabab there but the items were mostly rice items and only two items of kabab, which was disappointing. They did not refill some of the items which was more disappointing.
I hate to leave a bad review but the service at this restaurant was unacceptable. We went for the Ramadan buffet. People got up to get food all at the same time since it was the fast break time. By the time it was our turn there were no more Kabobs. Even the rice dishes and the stews had no more chicken or meat left in them! The owner or manger was at her table having her dinner at her busiest hour. She told us from her seat that more Kabobs will come soon. We grabbed some hummus, rice and salad (Not Afghan dishes) and broke our fast while waiting on the promised Kabobs. When a man came out of the kitchen with a single plate of Kabobs and dumpedbit in the pan, we got up but a couple guests were faster than us. You either do a buffet right or just serve regular menu! You dont have a sit down dinner at your busiest hour. And when a guest complain when paying that they didnt get to taste the kabobs and didnt have a pleasant experience, you dont offer them to stick around and wait for kabobs! You comp a portion of their check. You also should not add gratuity automatically to your checks when your establishment lacks the most basic customer service skills.
The food is very rich in flavor and is pretty juicy. The proportions are great and management is fantastic. Id highly recommend it to anyone looking for good Afghani cuisine! Definitely gonna come back
Very delicious food, and an interesting twist on kabobs. A must try
My brother brought me along to this place and as soon as we entered, we were warmly greeted by the owner who was extremely enthusiastic and welcoming. The food was amazing as well but the customer service is what makes this place special. Prices are typical/reasonable as well. Check this place out, you wont regret it.
This is the gold bar standard for Afghan food, service, and atmosphere. I was amazed at the portion size and had loads of leftovers. Each side is unique and made with love. Lentil soup, pickled veggies, hummus, naan, salad were all a meal on their own.
Savory, authentic Afghani food. Kabobs are amazing.
Hands down one of the finest customer service experiences I have had. From start to finish we were taken care of as if we were the only ones in the restaurant. We ordered 3 of their family platters since we had a large group and it was an overwhelming amount of food. But man was it amazing. Such delicious hummus, baba ganoush, and this tomato onion dip that blended all together on soft, hot bread. Then came the massive platter of delicious kabobs on top of rice cooked with spices and carrots and raisins. I couldnt stop eating. Highly recommend
Perfect food perfect service. Never had a perfect family combination plate except in this place.
I was very excited about this restaurant based on the reviews I have read but unfortunately We didn’t like the food at all. Chicken koobideh was too salty and my beef koobideh was tasteless. Giving three stars for the good service and fresh hot bread right out of the oven. I have eaten at better Afghan restaurants than this one.
Love the green sauce with some lamb Tikka my favorite. Get the meat lover combo and upgrade with some kabuli specialty rice.Gotta say the green sauce taste very authentic.
This place is amazing we are always greeted so warmly by the owner. The costumer service is what makes this place special! the food is super tasty i ditch the al bawadi for this place. I will always be a customer my family and i love kabul kabob! Portions are big so much left overs to take home and lentil soup is amazing and the dips are wowzers!!!
Omg this place is hidden treasure the food is the best ever we went for lunch today and the foods taste are bomb I highly recommended this place the people are soo friendly guys dont walk run to this place i will bring my family there also the price are so good too 😍😍😍
So happy we stopped at this place tonight. I’m a sucker for Afghani food and this spot did not disappoint. They had a buffet for Ramadan, so we got to sample quite a few different dishes. The food was delicious, everything was seasoned and flavored perfectly. I tried their eggplant dish (borani banjan) and it was amazing, and I’m sure I will forever crave! Will definitely be back to see what their regular menu will have to offer!
Too pricey compared to other quality kabob spots, but generous portions, excellent service, friendly professional staff, quaint seating and exotic, yet upbeat music.This place is made for families with the set up of a North side Italian family restaurant.Plenty of parking and Grub Hub/Uber/Doordash friendly.
Very bad service the owner won’t even let my dad use the bathroom very disappointed I didn’t even bother eating there plus it’s empty and the tell u that the for is 🤢
Great Arabic foods, buffet, eggplant, lamb, beef, chicken, fish
Absolutely amazing food. So excited for an Afghani restaurant finally coming to the area! This will definitely be our go-to spot to take visiting family and friends. Service and cleanliness was great too.
This place is hit or miss. not consistent. i came in about a month ago and was served by a guy by the name of Abu Shadi. brought my wife and kids a few days ago and everything was horrible. it look like the owner and his wife want to entertain guests that are not arab or muslim. i had the shrimp appetizer and it was very hot but stale. you can tell because it was very chewy. thats not how i had it the first time i visited. the first platter came out fast the second took forever. it seemed like they forgot about us. a nearby table got bread with their food , and when we asked the server she said that the refill was an additional charge and the first time its free with the food. well she never offered in the first place and i do remember Abu Shadi giving it to me the first time i visited along with my mixed platter. we asked for no carrots or raisins on rice. guess what we got carrots and raisins on our rice. poor service. food was ok. you guys are typical arab business owners. you guys put your own kind to the side and take care of the ajanib. i have more to say but the experience was so horrible i feel like im wasting my time. by the way you are out of straws, could you order some?
Love this place, came across it accidently and what a great accident that was. Love the service and food.
Just went last night, Bawadi has some competition! Excellent food, wentwirh the Family Platter, enough for 8 normal people. There was my crew of 7 guys and we had to take food home! Attentive service
Amazing food. I had Afghani food before, but this is so great!Good portions and delicious. The staff are nice and friendly!This restaurant will be on my favorite list from now on!
Kabul Kabob was amazing! The nan was so hot, and soft delicious. I ordered the chicken kabob. The entree came with hummus, salad (which had fresh mint leaves) white rice and a kabuli rice (a rice pilaf with shredded carrots and raisins. I called ahead for seating. During the month of Ramadan the restaurant is very busy. The line was to the door and every table was taken. I did not wait long as I called ahead and placed a to go order.The restaurant has an all you can eat buffet during Ramadan. The store closes at the owners discretion in Ramadan so that is great for anyone looking for late night eats. The food smelled wonderful and was equally as tasty. Very good customer service.I tried to reserve a table. The person over the phone informed me of what time I needed to arrive at the location. He did not realize initially he overbooked the table. Once he realized it, he called me back immediately to let me know all the tables had been reserved. I thought that was very kind and professional. I proceeded with my takeout order.This place is great! See for yourself.
Amazing food! I feel in love with Afghani food a few years ago and yet there was nowhere close that had it. This place is by far some of the best Afghani food I have had! Also the first time I eat here the hospitality was the best! I will be here often :)
Wow! The most delicious! Tried numerous dishes and all were oustanding! I cook at home foods from all over the world. I am a foodie. This is the best! The warmth, kindess, generosity, and attention to my pleasure was outstanding. I felt welcomed as with brothers and sisters. I live an hour away but will go often when I wish to be spoiled. Blessings to owner and staff! My husband and I are dearly grateful for you!!!
Loved the service & food was delicious
I come here almost every other month all the way from Indiana its the best Afghanistan cuisine in town Mantu is number #1 hitttt!!! And the tea is soo light and the best authentic taste...100% recommend the owner and staff is very friendly MashAllah.....
BUYER BEWARE- Burned stale chops, overpriced, lowest quantity i have seen in an entree, low quality meat, totally waste of time and money.
Best lamb chops in an area with lots of choices. Excellent, friendly service. Everything I have had here has been great. Not cheap, but you get what you pay for.
One of our favorite restaurants in the Chicago area. The food is consistently delicious.
They cheated on us when we went to eat and We asked why you have a Buffett on SaturdayThey was dishonest And lie and said we honor the grand opening of our neighbor !!the buffet was already paid by the owner of the neighbor of the grand opening shop and Also half of the trays of the food was empty and she charge us full price.
If they are Zabiha Halal, why are they not certified? If you wish to instill confidence that your establishment is Zabiha Halal, kindly get a hfsaa certification. I have heard that they are not Zabiha Halal.
Food was delicious, service was quick and restaurant is clean.I will be visiting again and again.👏
One the best and tastiest places I’ve been to! I come from St. Louis and this is a must for me! Service is great. I would recommended to anybody who likes grilled food and hummus!
Went to this place on my wedding anniversary. It was very beautiful. Quiet. And very tasty. Didn’t think it was this good. A good friends recommendation. 👏🏻
Very good food and deserves 5 star rating. Loved their platters with mixed kabobs. Service is excellent and quick.
Good food
Hey! So I’m from Wisconsin. Lucky landed on this gem place! Great food , great people! It’s a new place And they have good perfedt food . I had there buffet and it was simply awesome
I decided to cheat on Bawadi and I loved it. Meat was delicious and tender. Rice was perfection. Looks like its run by a family. Will return
Visited this place, left with regret.The owner was too mean, argued, discriminated on ethnic ground.Left the place without any due.Never had such experience before.
That food is good good good. Ive always rode past there and decided to stop. It was well worth it!!!
I been ordering from this restaurant and dining in foe a while now. Grate food & customer service.
Now they also serve Ramadhan buffet, very friendly staff and the food as usual very delicious.
Overpriced I do not recommend this place
The food is just spectacular I would highly recommend this place for people who like to try new things so far this is the best restaurant for grilled meats and very friendly customer service.
Great Atmosphere, Amazing food, Wonderful service. Welcoming to first timers.
Amazing food. Very authentic afghani cuisine. Had the mixed grill with chops and everything was grilled and seasoned perfectly. Will def be back.
Good people, great customer service and delicious food !!
One of the best afghan restuarant. I had qabuli palao and lamb kabab . Being afghan i can guarantee its as authetic as it can get . The staff and owner were welcoming. The place was very clean .
I have never had food like this before. It was freakin awesome!
I love Lamb shank and kabuli Pulav here.really really mouth watering 😋
Very nice place and delicious fresh food
The best Mediterranean food..I love it. My first time there and I recommend this place, you gonna like it😉
Good place to be very expensive for the food portion you get but also I didn’t like how he treats his employees especially one waitresses by someone whom I guess to be the owner I watched several incident where she came to ask him something concerning business but unfortunately he showed her an angry face with bad attitude while also he was chatting and laughing with other employeeI hope this will be a wake up call to rectify your behavior
Great atmosphere, service, and food. I’ll definitely come back!
Great food and great service. But for some reason, service charge added for credit and debit card transactions, which is not disclosed on receipt.
Food is so good and the owner is very friendly and nice.
Good food Good service good combination I think this restaurant will do good. Kabuli pulao is highly recommend, chicken kebobs are also better than some other restaurants around.
Family owned: Can tell before I asked just by how great the service was.
The best and delicious food in chicago and amazing stuff thanks
They over charge me mix plater 16 they charge me 19 rice excluded but they charge me 1 dollar humus is 5 dollars very little quantity over all not worth it one mix plater and humus coast me 30 dollars tooooo expensive low quality food
Food is awesome. A hidden gem. Recommend going and don’t hold your hand back.
Very tasty food and excellent service. Kabul mix grill and tikka combo were best.
The owner was rude unprofessional He asked me unrelated questions the food not cooked fresh I don’t liked it was expensive
The food was fine but host was rude. So, not going there again.

The worst customer service I have ever witnessed.Anybody who respects himself shouldn’t come to this place at all.
First time in this place food was great service was good we enjoyed the mix grill me and my wife.
Absolutely it was delicious food
Food was very expensive and didn’t taste afgani at all.

2022-01-12This restaurant has the most authentic Afghan food in all of Chicago. Their staff and owners are very hospitable to their customers. Their website is also very user-friendly and zabiha-halal certified. I highly recommend their Kabul Mix Grill and Mantu. The food is always cooked perfectly and their service is phenomenal. Definitely, a must-try if youre ever in the area!!

2022-05-15Great place, awesome food, been coming here and two years now. Not all the time.. like once every couple months. Owner is a great guy. I did however run into a situation tonight and, unfortunately, will not be coming back anymore. If you do order over the phone for carry out just confirm your order before paying and double check your order once handed to you. PS one bad experience can ruin and good place. Maybe in the future I’ll come back but as of now I think I’m gonna take a break.
