The food was okay,not bad,rice didn't feel fresh,& the portions were a bit small for the price. I felt like the server wasn't happy when we wanted to order just one dish, so we ended up ordering another one as well, not because we were hungry, but because he looked upset. We only took a couple of bites of the second dish (the lamb kebab) & ended up getting the rest packed to go. 🙂
Je suis aller avec des amis qui avais essayer le resto il m'on proposer & j'ai adorer l'agneau fondant au épinard le ris & les légume super. La soupe mashaba au légume était bien. L entrée d aubergine était bien. Mais le pudding a l eau de rose & pistache vraiment un delectable surprise. Some of my friend bring me to this spot & i try the soft spinach lamb wich was delicious. The rice & vegetable salade Great. The mashaba soup its a végétarian one was ok. The eggplant appetizer was fine But the dessert is a bomb wich was rose water pudding & pistachio.

I went for dinner with a few friends & the experience was amazing. The service was great & the food was delicious.
I got the Table D'Hote #1 with the lentil soup, Ashak (leek dumplings), & kabuli palaw. The soup tasted like traditional dal, very nice. The Ashak was amazing, basically dumplings with a different flavor. The Kabuli Palaw was truly the star! The rice was soft, the lamb was melting off the bone.
The staff was really nice, very attentive but not hovering. You could really take your time sitting there, eating food, & enjoying conversations. Highly recommend!
Fantastic dining experience from start to finish ! It was our first time, but won't be our last. This BYOW Afghan resto had ambiance & amazing food at reasonable prices, & great service.
We had the table d'hote #2 to try as much as possible. Started with a delicious lentil soup, followed by a massive Kabuli Palaw (roasted fork-tender lamb shank) accompanied by a huge plate of savory brown basmati rice, flavoured with afghan spices, raisins & carrot juliennes. Absolute amazing !
Other lamb dishes sampled were the Sabzi Chalaw (with spinach) & Korma Chalaw (tomato based), all equally delicious. Reservations are recommended, although we didn't have to wait at all, & it was Valentine's Day !
A beautiful restaurant with delicious food.This restaurant beautiful inside & outside is bring your own wine. Great variety of food. Had the veggie combo, with okra, cauliflower, eggplant & spinach with 3 different rice, all yummy 😋 loved the service 😁🤠
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.
Went here with my classmate. OMG it was really good dinner. We sat on the terasse but our food was still piping hot. Everything was delicious. The rice was so flavorul, the salad was savoury & the chicken. Oh mon dieu the chicken was incredible. It was falling off the bone & the pasta sauce didn't taste tomato-y. Everything went so well. I will definitely be coming back & recommending. The servers were very fast & friendly as well. The table beside us was rather noisey but beside that. Best dinner I've had in MTL since I've moved & the Price was so worth it.
