Afghan Kabob

Hands down!!! Best Mediterranean food in Chicago....
It's a whole in wall, in the middle of a busy neighborhood..
Great service and staff is very nice..
I went here for the first time last year with a Groupon, and I can't count how many times I went back....even brought visiting friends over, and they loved it too!

On our tab:
Mantu Plate
Lamb Kabob
Kabuli Palaw (Lamb shank)

As this was my first time trying Afghani food, I have no clue on the authenticity of the food, however all of it was delicious.

The Mantu plate was delicious and my counterpart loved her Lamb kabobs.  I had a piece and it was very tender with tasty seasonings.

The Kabuli Palaw was tender fall-off-the-bone deliciousness.  Get the brown rice, because they cook it with the meat and it tastes so much better that way.  The rice was amazing, I think it's basmati rice, and was nice with the sweetness of the raisins.  I'll be back again to try the other items along with the Kabuli Palaw as well.

There is nothing fancy about this small shop except that it serves delicious Afghan food at very reasonable prices. I've been here twice and was never disappointed with the food or the service. The staff is courteous, helpful and the owner is usually there to take your questions.

Though most of the items on the menu are good, I especially like the Kabuli Pulav served with lamb shank, whose meat is tender, juicy and has a lot of flavor. All in all,don't miss Afghan Kabob if you're in town and want to try some good middle eastern food.
