I adore this place. The food was delicious & full of flavour. The restaurant itself is has great character & charm. The waiting staff was so accommodating. We were a large group with four small children. Our waiter went the extra mile to make sure we were all taken care of. We will definitely be back!
My first Afghan dish experience & we weren't disappointed! Food was great & the menu offers very decent choices. Ambiance is pretty nice & very Montreal-esque. It was a great night to eat & enjoy a good wine, with good company 😊 Service makes a difference as well. Our waiter was very friendly, hard worker & listened to us like a person. He took time even it was busy. I recommend this place & will come back...hopefully before summer ends to enjoy the Terrace.
Un peu déçue... nous étions deux & avons commandé la table d'hôte pour 37$ chacun avec 2 plats différents (agneau & Kofta). Les deux plats étaient mijotés dans la même sauce tomate, peu épicé, goût subtil, mais la viande était très tendre. Le goût de la sauce tomate prenait trop le dessus. En entrée : Salade basique, pas assaisonné & grossièrement préparée (gros morceaux d'oignons, la tête de la tomate n'était pas retirée...). Les riz étaient bons, mais en petite quantité & servie avec la même salade qu'en entrée.. Dessert : pudding eau de rose. Très bon, mais manquait de pistache (c'était saupoudré de quelques miettes fines de pistache). Aussi déçue par le thé qui était trop dilué. Pour les personnes qui aiment les goûts francs, les épices & la nourriture fidèle à la culture, c'est très décevant. Je m'attendais aussi à une cuisine plus fine. On se sent un peu comme dans une salle à manger, style cantine. D'autres resto afghans plus «casual» offrent de meilleurs plats & plus savoureux pour un prix beaucoup plus raisonnable.
Khyber Pass offers authentic Afghan cuisine served in a charming cave-like setting with stone walls, creating a memorable & intimate atmosphere. The menu features traditional dishes bursting with rich flavors & aromatic spices. The attentive service enhances the dining experience, making it a standout choice for exploring Afghan culinary delights in Montreal. A must try for those visiting.
Première expérience pour cuisine afghane. Excellent! Relevé sans être piquant. Ils savent cuisiner avec les herbes & aromates. Nous y retournerons. Seul bémol: difficulté à stationner dans le secteur.
J'ai adorer ma toute première fois a ce restaurant 🤭 clairement je vais y retourner je suis aller manger pour mon anniversaire & je regrette aucunement tout les plats que j'ai manger tout étais succulent 9/10 sur tout les plats car évidemment le seule petit point faible est qu'il a beaucoup de coriande dans tout les plats pratiquement sauf que c'est leur ingrédients principaux

I love everything about this place! It's super authentic & makes you travel. The food, the service & the atmosphere are making it perfect! The price are really good for the amount of food you can have.
Je tiens à remercier l'équipe de serveurs, hôtes, cuisiniers qui nous a aidé à chercher un stationnement en plein vendredi soir, veille du tour de l'île à vélo... ils ont honoré notre réservation malgré notre retard. Des gens vraiment charmants qui savent nous mettre à l'aise aussitôt que l'on entre dans l'établissement. Bien entendu les plats sont tous excellents, d'excellente qualité & la terrasse un incontournable. Nous reviendrons.
We were visiting Montréal for the day & wanted to have dinner somewhere nice. After doing some research on Google, we came across this restaurant that was highly rated (& for good reason). We didn't have a reservation, but we were seated quickly after walking in. They have a lovely outdoor patio in the back, which we chose to sit at as the weather was beautiful that evening. Service was friendly & fast, & the food options were all delicious. We tried a number of dishes, including soups, salads, & appetizers. Their main dishes were spectacular, & the food seemed to be prepared fresh. I wish I had more pictures to share, but we were hungry & didn't wait to take photos before digging in. I highly recommend trying this place out if you are considering doing so.
