Very ethnic spot. We went for an early dinner on a Sunday without any reservation. They could still…read moreaccomodate us on the patio but the patio directly overlooks the main road and the road noise is definitely not something we enjoyed very much. No other concern other than the road noise. We were a party of three - 2 adults and one 5-year old toddler. We ordered 4 things - 1. Mantu - very good but expensive for 4 dumplings 2, Chicken Shami Kebab - Comes with super soft buttery naan bread, Melt in the mouth kebabs and possibly the best kebab of my life. My son loved it and primarily ate most of it. 3. Uzbeki Palaw - Very good but the rice to meat ratio could be disappointing. 4. One cocktail and it was very good, very ethnically inspired. Everything was amazing. Portion sizes are small and we finished everything. Our server was so warm and advised visiting during brunch hours the next time to enjoy more kebabs given we likes it the best. Other tips! 1. Service is fairly quick. We were in and out within the hour. 2. There is street parking but finding a spot may still be challenging at any point. There is parking in the building but when we visited, the entrance to it was not working. 3. Reservations are highly recommended for weekends to be seated inside which is very chic and upscale. 4. Menu is pretty kid friendly food and none of the food was remotely spicy.

Had dinner at Afghan Horsemen and overall it was a solid experience, especially if you're coming…read morefor hearty, traditional Afghan food. We ordered a kebab meat platter and it definitely delivers on portion size. The standout for me was the grilled meats, especially the lamb chops and chicken kebabs. They were well-seasoned, nicely charred, and not dry (which is where a lot of places miss the mark). The rice was fragrant and paired well with everything, though pretty standard. Service was good. The atmosphere leans traditional and a bit dated, but it fits the vibe of the place. Overall: worth going for if you're craving grilled meats and a filling meal, just don't expect anything particularly refined. It's about comfort food and generous portions.

This was my first time visiting the restaurant, and the food and service were both excellent. Looking forward to my next return. My friend and I decided the Horseman Specialty Platter which serves 2 people. We started with the Humous (yellow split pea), Sabzi Mast (spinach & yogurt dip), pita bread and a salad with cucumbers, red onions, tomatoes and feta cheese. The platter was filled with a delicious rice, baked eggplant, potatoes and 3 meats (chicken kebab, Lamb Shish Kebab, Lamb Shoulder Chop). We couldn't finish as there was so much food, so took some home. We finished with Pistachio Ice Cream (pistachio, saffron & rosewater) and it was rich and delicate and a perfect ending. Once of the best I had in town. Décor is tradition and relaxing. You can ask for the traditional floor seating or table. Reservation recommended but was can early and they were able to accommodate us. Free mall complex parking but ensure you register. Many metered parking on the streets within 2-3 block radius. The #50 bus stopped right in front of the restaurant.

We dropped in on a Sunday (5:45pm). Only one worker but friendly. A mix of Afghani, Indian and Greek dishes. All entrees are $12.99 except for the roasted lamb ($14.99). Came with tea and dry, tasteless rote (Afghani sweet bread). - Pickled vegetables ($3.99) - eggplant, carrot, cauliflower and celery. Decent. - Vegetable pakora ($5.99) - slightly more dense compared to Indian style pakora. - Lamb qabuli ($12.99) - lamb was dry, more fat than meat. The qabuli was abundant but lacked spices/seasoning. - Lamb shami ($12.99) - lamb kebabs were overcooked. Wouldn't order again. - Spinach curry ($12.99) - Greek rice was plain, spinach curry was enjoyable. Okay eats at JAC but that's about it.
