Amazing food & atmosphere!
We had the filet mignon brochette plate, perfectly cooked, tender, & full of flavor. The spices were spot on, & the portions were generous.
It's bring your own wine, so we showed up with a proper Poli Limoncello which made the night even better. The staff was warm, the vibe was relaxed, & everything felt authentic & welcoming.
An amazing night overall, highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy great Afghan food with friends!

We took a while to get going with our meal because the restaurant was quite busy when we arrived (the server warned us). But the service was fast & the food was delicious. Lamb shanks (whichever variety) is a must have. The vegetarian platter (ladies finger, egg plant, cauliflower & mixed greens) was fantastic. The trio of basmati rice is a wonderful accompaniment. We brought a bottle of red wine to enjoy with our meal, sitting outside in the courtyard. Authentic & generous portions.

I've visited Khyber Pass a few times over the years, & it's always a memorable experience.
The restaurant has a cozy Afghan atmosphere, generous portions, & dishes full of rich flavor.
Their meats are tender, the rice is aromatic, & the fresh herbs & chutneys balance everything beautifully. Service is friendly & relaxed, which matches the laid-back vibe.
A great spot in Montreal if you want authentic Afghan food.

Authentic Afghan dishes. Taste is true to traditional flavours & still delightful to western palates. High quality ingredients. Appropriate portions. No extreme spices or flavours. Beautiful atmosphere with traditional Afghan decorations & music. It's like a poetic journey to Kabul. Marti did an excellent job as waiter during what was clearly a busy evening.

After an 8-hour journey, all I needed was a good meal that felt like home. I searched for an Afghan restaurant in Montreal & ended up at Khyber Pass - & honestly, it was the best decision I made that day.
No waiting... The staff was super welcoming & kind, which already set the vibe right. Then came the food… & it blew me away. The flavors were so authentic, it genuinely felt like I was back home for a moment. I had been craving that exact taste for so long, & nowhere else hit the mark like this place did.
Everything - from the atmosphere to the service to the food - was simply amazing. Highly, highly recommend it if you're looking for a real Afghan food experience in Montreal.

Nestled in the heart of Montreal, Khyber Pass offers an authentic taste of Afghan cuisine that delights the senses. The lamb kebab & shank are simply excellent - tender, flavourful, & perfectly seasoned. The rice, infused with interesting spices, complements the dishes beautifully. The table d'hote menu provided a generous selection at a very fair price, making it a great value for money. One of the highlights is the beautiful terrasse in the back, providing a peaceful & charming ambiance for outdoor dining. For drinks, it is BYOB, maybe add some non-alcoholic beer? Just a thought 😊. The cardamom-infused green tea is fabulous, but served in a small cup, & the waiter did not offer a refill, which was a slight letdown. Despite this, the overall experience at Khyberpass was delightful, & it is a must-visit for anyone looking to explore Afghan flavours in Montreal.

I recently dined at Afghanic Restaurant & had an exceptional experience. The ambiance was warm & inviting, & the food was incredibly flavorful, offering a delightful taste of authentic Afghan cuisine. Mobeen's hospitality stood out the most; he made us feel right at home with his attentive & friendly service. It's rare to find such genuine & personalized attention. I highly recommend Afghanic Restaurant for anyone looking to enjoy great food & outstanding service.

Kam
Amazing afghani restaurant! Delicious food, fantastic service, authentic & interesting decor. Our waiter was the most delightful young man & we were able to talk about our Persian connection. We ordered the mantoo to start, kofta, & chicken kabob. Everything was delicious, seasoned/spiced perfectly, & very filling. Will definitely come back again.

This is the best Afghani food I've ever tasted till now. The service was good, the place is always full, make sure to reserve in advance, it's a bring ur own wine place, the inside is good as well, we really felt transported to Afghanistan! Prices are reasonable, it is the authentic Afghani place in Montreal so far. Enjoy the food! Cheers
