Best Afgan cusine in the Bay Area, maybe in the country. Best lamb availiable anywhere.
by gulpiter
I have been regularly coming to Kabul since in opened many years ago, and the food has consistently been fantastic. Everything is good there, but the lamb may be the best there is anywhere, especially Chupan (on very few occasions it has not been sufficiently marinated but still excellent). Soups are also excellent. The portions are so large that my wife and I often split an appetiser, order a soup for each, and then split the lamb (1 skewer each) or order a lamb-chicken combination and split it. The servers may be a little rough at times, but they are all wonderful people and always want to make the customer happy.
- Pros: Everything is great.
- Cons: Soup sometimes is not warm enough.

Should be a 4.5 stars, but I do love this place
by miyaspot
The traditional afghan dishes here are amazing. If you read the Kite Runner, and it left you aching to try Afghan cuisine, there is no better place on the Peninsula than Kabul. Absolutely delicious!
- Pros: Fantastic food. The side dishes are amazing. Try all!
- Cons: Dated decor in a strip mall.

COUNT YOUR CHANGE!!!
by phudee
The last three times the food was barely warm, the service poor, and the amounts meager. The topper was when a neighboring table complained that they had been given too little change for their bill and that it had happened before. We have had that experience as well. BAD BUSINESS!!!
- Pros: Nice ambience, food can be tasty
- Cons: Not enough wait-staff, food is served barely warm, inconsistent portions, shortchanged
