Aylin K.

Came across this place last minute! Everything we ordered was delicious, flavorful, and clearly made with care, but the real highlight was the back patio, it's beautifully set up with a traditional cozy vibe that makes the whole experience feel special. Plus, the outdoor seating is dog-friendly. Definitely a hidden gem and I'll be coming back.

This was my first time having Halal and this place absolutely blew my mind away. When we arrived, we were greeted and sat away by our amazing server. We opt in for the outdoor seating with this canal made inside the plaza and heaters placed all around. What we ordered: Sampler kabob (5/5): this came with chaplee, chicken and beef so you get a little bit of variety to try from. This dish was so delicious, all the ingredients were super fresh and goes well together. Bolani Potatoes: (4/5): was surprised by the huge portion size and was not expecting so much for an appetizer. Other wise, simply delicious and had this yogurt sauce to dip from, great flavor balance! Lamb Kabobs: (5/5): off the grill type of flavor, you can taste the char on each individual lamb chop. The meat was buttery and melts in your mouth, a must get if you ever come here. Overall this was such an amazing place to try middle eastern food for my first time. If you have never had, I would 100% recommend this place to be your first if you're in the area.

Been wanting to try this restaurant for awhile and finally got the chance today. I always see lots of patrons and the waft of the barbecued meats is very tantalizing. Both hubby and I ordered the combo plates and the beef and chicken were both tender and well seasoned. It came with rice, naan, and salad. Everything was really good and the service was excellent. The outside dining area by the waters is so nice and enjoyable.

Came here yesterday late afternoon for lunch. We were seated right away. Really cute Afghan traditional outdoor seating by the lake. The food was warm and fresh. Great customer service. We will definitely be back if In the area.

I watched a IG video that featured this place, so it was immediately bookmarked. I didn't realize that it was in a small outdoor mall area. My best friend and I decided to sit down outside to enjoy the weather and also the pond. We ordered the potato bolani to start and both got the sampler kabob plate. It took a little while for the food to get to our table, but once it did we were pleasantly surprised at how good everything was. The potato bolani was crispy on the outside with flavorful potato inside. The yogurt sauce along with the green hot sauce complimented the bolani very well. The sampler kabob platter allowed both of us to try differently prepared meats. It was all so delicious. I had enough leftover to have more the next day. Visit 786 Kabob House...like today! You won't regret it.

My partner and I decided to try this restaurant after seeing he saw it on social media. Outside dining was a little more popular compared to sitting inside- this restaurant was beautifully decorated outside, with lovely traditional Afghan pillows. I found the food to be delicious and well-seasoned. My partner who is Afghan, wasn't too fond with the kababs as he found them a little dry and salty- he was also disappointed that our appetizer came in last- after we had finished our entrees. The service could've been a little better knowing they weren't too busy that day.

Stopped here after visiting the neighboring museum. It looked like a fun Mediterranean restaurant to try. The kebabs were super flavorful! The chicken was some of the most tender I've had. Server was friendly and efficient. Nice outdoor area to lounge and listen to the waterfalls & fountains. Highly recommend!

Sampler Kabob with shor nakhod, cucumber salad, and really hard bread...

Cynthia L.

Finally gave this place a second go and did not disappoint! Also in my last review, the bread was hard and tough to eat. This time it was soft, so yay! Improvement! The meat is still well seasoned and flavorful. I got the combo while my fiancé got the sampler. Tried a bit of the Chaplee and while it does have spice to it, it's mild and not as spicy as other places like De Afghanan which works well for me! On top of it, Shor Nakhed is hard to find and they still have it and it's still delicious! So giving them the full five stars cause this place deserves it. Coming back again when I can!!

Kira N.

Great views, flavorful chicken kabobs and very authentic tea. Really enjoyed our dine in here

Beautiful ambiance and delicious food! My girlfriends and I had the perfect dinner here. It felt like a private dinner, it was intimate and the food was comforting. The chicken kabob, chaplee and lamb was moist, tender and juicy full of flavor! Oh and I loved their rose infused lemonade! It was so refreshing.

Abha S.

I would get it five stars for Location! Beautiful and calming backdrop in Blackhawk! The food is decent, though lacking in flavor in my opinion. The mint chutney condiment is a must try and complements any of the dishes really well!

Great food I love the area, it's nice taking a walk after your meal. Been here two times. Would come again

Located by the pond of ducks and geese at Blackhawk Plaza is the most unexpected of eateries. 786 Kabob House offers a small menu of Afghani kabobs in a cafe setting with traditional red cushioned seating. We started with the Borani Kadu, a soft, sweet braised pumpkin wedge drizzled with yogurt and topped with dry mint. But the highlight item was the Sampler Kabob Plate, which came with chicken kabob, teka beef (tri-tip) kabob, and chaplee kabob (minced sirloin with chilies), along with seasoned brown basmati rice, naan (crusty Afghani flatbread), and Afghan salata (cucumbers, tomatoes, onion). Each of the kabobs was juicy and flavorful, but my favorite was definitely the chaplee kabob, which had a crispy texture on the outside and a spicy flavor throughout! Overall, the food at this restaurant was decent and rather unexpected for its location. The portion sizes were generous for the prices, though the service left something to be desired.

Came all the way here from LA to taste the food. It did not disappoint. The chef previously had a restaurant in Beverly Hills, and relocated to Blackhawk after covid. Been waiting 2 years to taste the kabob again. Chabli is just fire, chicken kabob has great flavor and the shish kabob is RIDICULOUS. Make sure Keyon is marinating (recipe passed down 4 generations in Panjshir). I am persian and I prefer this style Afghan kabob over any persian kabob. The ambiance is spectacular, a lagoon on one side and a waterfall on the other. 10 stars!! read more

The best Afghan food in the area. We have tried most of the Afghan places (Kabol in Dublin, De Afghan in Livermore etc) - but this is the best. Food, ambience and the people in this place is amazing. They have done the soft opening and planning to do the grand opening soon. One of the best chapli, chicken and beef kebabs I have ever eaten. Very juicy and tasty. Their Bolani was also the best They have an Afghan style outdoor seating with carpets and everything with the pond and everything in the back drop. Nice place to go with the family and have some of the best Afghan food read more

I don't like to give poor ratings, especially since I am Afghan myself, and I'm always happy to try new Afghan restaurants. my family and I dined here a couple weeks ago, and this was our experience. The location and decor of the restaurant is very beautiful. it definitely lives up to the vibe of a traditional Afghan household. The service was OK. It was ran by a few younger gentlemen who did not seem to have much experience in serving, but they were kind. The reason why our rating is so low, however, is mainly the food. We ordered the bolani, and chicken kabob plate. unfortunately, the bolani you could tell the potatoes were very old that they used for the filling. but the most unfortunate meal was probably the chicken kebab plate. it seemed as though the chicken was rushed being cooked and the sides, such as the rice and the salad were so old that it actually made the plate stink a little. as I said, we are Afghan ourselves and we love to support our local restaurants so I really hope they do see this review and can improve on the quality of the food. We would loved to try them again in the future and have a better experience. read more

We indulged in a family-style kabob sampler, perfect for four, and savored delicious Bolani served with homemade yogurt topped with dry mint.

Enjoyed a late lunch with my younger siblings at this spot today. Loved the vibe and the people - my only critique was that they were out of the bolani and phirni but weren't aware of that at the time we ordered. Therefore they asked if we'd want to substitute the bolani for borani later - and although I didn't mind that, we received it at the end of our meal alongside dessert which was a bit of an odd experience. read more

Let me start of by saying I drove about 6 hours to visit this restaurant because of all the good reviews on Google and cuz of what I saw on Instagram. I had already made a reservation 3 weeks in advance. Upon arrival to the restaurant we waited 10min for someone to come out, eventually someone comes out and says you need to wait for I'm assuming was the owner. We waited another 15min for the owner to come and seat us. We got seated but not for the booth that we reserved. I politely told the guy that we had reserved for a specific booth and he confirmed it over the phone at the time of the reservation. The man very rudely in from of my family told me "you can't have that booth because it's for a larger party so I can make more money" and than he says "if I set you up at the booth that you reserved for i would have to rush you guys while you eat" like why would you say that to a customer?? All while rolling his eyes and giving a death glare to everyone in my family. Very disappointed and frustrated with the guy. We had to get up and walk out because he wasn't giving us a chance to speak. Please learn how to politely communicate with your customers and learn some customer service skills. I don't now how this guys runs the place with that type of attitude... read more

I would recommend patience when finding parking on Hartz Ave :) The food was very fresh, hearty portions, came hot and in great timing, fair pricing, and a nice array of meat/veg options.

The rice is Turmeric rice, and completely yellow and seasoned. Chicken is boneless and seasoned but usually on the dry side. Doesn't matter / our son has been known to finish half to all of a bowl by himself for lunch. Recently we've been getting double orders to have a backup dinner option. As for the adults, I occasionally enjoy their lamb kabobs and Chicken Shawarma, while the wife is a fan of the Shrimp Kabobs. The combo plates are a complete meal since you get hummus, pita bread, and a small side salad. Definitely one of our go-to favorites for a quick lunch we know our son will enjoy.

Just stepping in lifts your spirit and creates joy. The thoughtful decor and beautiful design immediately stand out, creating a special atmosphere, even if you are simply meeting friends for lunch on a weekday. I never expected to find such a stunning restaurant tucked into a shopping strip in the heart of San Ramon. One Hour Bistro is truly a delightfull find. The same attention to detail reflected in the decor is also evident in the quality of the ingredients and the incredible flavors of each dish. Crystal glasses in a Thai restaurant? YES! They also offer mocktails which I wish I had time to try and savor. I ordered the Kao Soi Braised Short Ribs, and it was absolutely stunning; beautifully presented, generously portioned, and deeply comforting. The rich broth, tender bone-in ribs, and flavorful noodles made every bite memorable. I couldn't even finish the entire dish because I wanted to savore it slowly. The Pad See Ew was a silky, heavenly treat. The rice noodles were succulent, the vegetables were fresh, and everything was coated in a rich, flavorful sauce. If your driving through San Ramon, this is a MUST try. If you live in the area, lucky you!

The restaurant itself is beautiful, warm, and thoughtfully designed, making it a great place to relax over lunch. What really stood out, though, was the service.

Dining room looks very upscale for a mom and pop operation. Staff is very gracious and accommodating. I was there for a late lunch once. Watched a family of 5 walk in wanting to sit down and order. The restaurant was technically closed for a staff lunch and reset for dinner. The front door was unlocked only to let stragglers like me and another table out after finishing our meal. The server was nice and let the family stay. Great customer service isn't the only reason for the 4 stars. AW has amazing value lunch deals. Love the simple stirfries best. Healthy but tasty. Lots of quality veggies. Highly enjoyed the veggie and shrimp stirfry. The string bean beef is also yummy. My sister thinks their hot and sour soup is great. I love the crunchy woodear mushrooms while she likes the flavor. We both appreciate the kitchen not skimping on the tofu, bamboo shoots and egg. Not everything is a favorite tho. Tried the mushu for takeout once. Didn't enjoy AZ's version. Also didn't enjoy their veggie eggrolls. Wrapper was good and crispy but veggie filling was oddly mushy. Happy to find Amazing Wok as our regular neighborhood place closed recently. AW is a few miles further but it is now our "go to" Chinese American restaurant. Will gladly return to explore the extensive menu.

This is probably only the second Afghan restaurant I have eaten. We were warmly greeted and asked if we wanted to eat inside or outside. If it's a nice day, definitely eat outside. It was dreary so we ate inside. We ordered the Sampler Kabob and the Lamb Chops to share. The lamb chops were hit and miss. Some pieces were excellent, some were bony, some were fatty. But it was very flavorful. For the sampler, my family loved the Chicken Kabob. I liked it, but not as much. The Teka Beef Kabob was really good. But my favorite was the patty-like Chaplee Kabob. Each of our meals was served with rice, salad, and bread. The rice was good, the salad was great. The only disappointing aspect of the meal was the bread. It was room temperature and nothing special. They call it naan, but it's not like the Indian naan served hot and a little crispy. read more

I recently visited 786 Kabob House and I have to say, it was one of the best dining experiences I've had in a while. The food was absolutely amazing, with a wide variety of options to choose from. The lamb and beef kabobs were cooked to perfection, and the Afghani bread was fluffy and flavorful. What really stood out to me, though, was the service. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure that our experience was nothing short of perfect. I would highly recommend 786 Kabob House to anyone looking for delicious food and top-notch service. read more

First off, food aside the place here is beautiful! It's beside a little water area and has plenty of heaters and lights for even a night time vibe. The food was very good. The bolani and chutni as well as the yogurt sauce it came with is phenomenal! The lamb that we ordered was amazing as well and our host Zimar was extremely courteous and kind and let us know all the future plans and goes around to tables to make sure everyone is doing well. Great people, great scenery and great afghani food . read more

We finally tried this restaurant for the first time, and it did not disappoint! My partner--who's a native and has been eager to visit. The standout dishes were the chicken and steak kabobs, juicy, flavorful, and perfectly grilled. The ambiance was just as impressive as the food, with gorgeous outdoor seating that made the meal feel extra special. Highly recommend grabbing a table outside for the full experience! Definitely worth the visit, and we'll be back to explore more of the menu. read more

Im not usually a Kebab type of girlie, but I just experience 786 for the first time and I absolutely loved it! The lamb chops and Kebabs were really flavorful but some pieces on the lamb were either too fatty or too bony. It was still super flavorful nevertheless! Our server was very kind and friendly, it was my first time here so they were very open to helping me choose my order. I really love the ambiance of the place, its very spacious and always smells good! read more
