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!
Quelle belle découverte ! On se sent vraiment en voyage le temps d'un repas. Leur table d'hôte est vraiment géniale. Nous avions un beau 4 services pour 45$ avec la table d'hôte #1. Les soupes sont réconfortantes, les entrées de borani & de mantoo nous font découvrir des saveurs que nous avons pas goûté ailleurs & que dire des plats. Le kabuli avec le jarret d'agneau & le riz avec les raisins secs est un coup de coeur. Le kofta est excellent également. Le petit dessert léger termine le repas sur une excellente note.
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 !
My new favourite restaurant. I was kinda afraid because there's not a lot of vegetarian options, but I had the table d'hôte with the house soup & vegetarian combo, & it was amazing! the most delicious experience I've had in a restaurant in years. Will definitely come again!!
Première expérience pour la cuisine afghane. Le décors & la musique du restaurant nous font voyager. Les plats sont très bons, ça vaut la peine de prendre la table d'hôte! Le staff est très gentil & amical. 😁
This is hands down one of my favorite restaurants in Montreal. Wow, just amazing food. For the entrée we got the leek stuffed pasta, & it was amazing. For the main we got the quail, it was juicy & deliciously seasoned to perfection (apparently the spice mix is a secret that the chef keeps to himself!). We also got the lamb shank, it was so amazingly tender, falling off the bone. I've never eaten such delicious meat in my life. Just wow. The rose pudding felt like a soft cloud inside my mouth, aromatic with notes of pistachios & cardamon, perfect to finish the meal. I recommend going there when you're hungry, because the portions are quite big. The table d'hôte is quite worth it. Our waiter was very nice & fast. Overall an amazing experience. 10/10 highly reccomend.
Delicious traditional afghan food & very cool atmosphere. Maybe I'm biased because I'm half afghan, but I loved it! The lamb shank withe the kabuli palaw was so tender. I recommend get one of the table d'hote options for someone with a big appetite & wants to try the soup, maybe an appetizer, & desser with tea or coffee. Very cute patio
