“ Came here after seeing an IG post about the food. Goat was tender and flavorful! Paired great with the rice and naan! ”

“ Very very good! The service was on point. The kabobs were really flavorful and tender. The hummus was perfect. The bolani was really good but the mantoo stole the show, they were tender and very flavorful. Do not forget the lemonade with mint was incredible. Not too sour and not too sweet! We will absolutely will be back! ”

“ Went for the first time to this small family owned restaurant, it won't be the last! I'm a strong supporter of family owned and family run businesses and Afghan Village was just that. Servers are nice and friendly. Naan and combo kabobs and Tandoori kabobs were excellent. Lemonade is freshly made! ”

“ Really good food! Lots of flavor! We got the goat karhai, shinwaray kabob, and the mantoo! Highly recommend the mantoo, so good! ”

“ This is a whole in the wall store. Parking is good and lots of space in the store. Nothing super fancy. The food was wonderful! We got the platter, which was good for 4 people. Also got the mantoo, and eggplant/tomato dip, and a bread filled with potatoes. All were amazing, and service was great! ”

“ This place is amazing! The food is SO flavorful, and the service is great. They even threw in some free bread and We got the large platters (with kabobs and cranberry rice) and WOW! It was delicious. We brought it for a group that had largely never had afghan food, and they were all so impressed. They were all trying to find a time to go back! The rice is cooked perfectly, and so flavorful. I don't know if I've ever had rice jam packed with that much flavor. The chicken and beef were perfectly seasoned and delicious as well. We also got the bouranee bademjan (an eggplant dip) that was vegetarian, and it was savory and had a wonderful flavor. They also gave us (for free!) some green sauce. I'm unsure what it was exactly but it had a cilantro, fresh flavor. It was delicious! My husband has actually been here a few times, and they remembered him. Which was so nice! You don't see that at many restaurants these days, so it was a nice touch. Great place! Can't wait to be back! ”

“ First of all, I highly recommend the bolani, especially if you're a first-timer to this restaurant and Afghan food. It's a stuffed flatbread (with potatoes) and it's really good. It's also specific to Afghan food. It was my favorite part of the meal, I think. Second, the portions are generous and the food is reasonably priced. Third, I really appreciate that their menu has a couple combo platter options. It's a great way to try multiple types of meat. We ordered the All-In-One platter for 39.99. It had lamb, several types of beef, and a couple types of chicken. It came with a TON of rice in one of those large aluminum trays. They must have thought we were feeding a whole family but nope, just my fiancé and my hungry self. As far as the food goes, I will say that the meats weren't created equal. Some were pretty tasty and tender, specifically the chicken breasts and the Chapli kabob (ground beef patty). Others were really dry (like the lamb chop). The rest (ground meat kabobs, beef chunks) were somewhere in the middle in terms of texture. Overall, not the most tender/juicy meats however the combo platter was a great way to try everything. The rice was pretty good and I have 3 ziplock bags of it left in my freezer right now! We also ordered a side of hummus which was tasty. And like I already said, the bolani stole the show. Just a heads up, I couldn't find their website/online menu. Luckily, some folks posted a few photos here so you'll have to piece it together that way. ”

“ This is probably my new favorite restaurant in Houston. Afghan food is the best kept secret on the planet. The meat dishes are well seasoned and super tender. The flavors are exciting. From an outsider perspective, it tastes like a mix between Persian food and Indian food. It's seasoned more aggressively than Persian but less heavy than Indian food. Don't want to offend anyone, just my opinion. I eat both Persian and Indian regularly, so it felt very familiar and seemed like a great fusion. ”

“ Authentic Mediterranean food can definitely be found here! The taste is so on point! First off, I'm so glad they have pictures on their menu, and the pictures on Yelp definitely helped my selection. My friend and I started off with the bolani which is a potato stuffed naan and it was sooo good! Great appetizer to start with and enough to make it an entree really. We also tried the mantoo (mantu) which is a beef dumpling. This is probably my favorite dish because it was so unique and flavorful! Definitely plenty of food and a popular dish. I also got to try the chapli kabob with the rice. The beef patty was good, but I actually really liked the rice. There was a great portion to fill you up. Overall, I loved the food and it was superb! The service wasn't the best to be honest. I don't expect much from a mom and pop shop like this, but it just sucked that we had to keep asking to see if we needed to order at the front, or at the table. It just felt like every step requires us to take initiative. I did like the decorations and it was very authentic. I would definitely come again for the food because it was great and an affordable price. ”
