★★★☆☆ I'm a bit mixed on this place. The first time I tried this place, my husband and I ate there, and it was absolutely FREEZING in the restaurant. I even went out to my car to see if I had a jacket in my trunk. We both had the Qabuli Palau, and it was decent, but we've not been back to eat there. It was that cold.
Since then, thought, I've had my son bring carryout from there a few times, and it has been okay, though sometimes it's a little too spicy (still always Qabuli Palau, my go-to fave Afghani dish).
Recently, I went to their web site, and although they had Qabuli Palau pictured on the lunch special, the first guy I talked to on the phone kept telling me that the price for Qabuli was $2 higher than it said on the website, and then he asked me (multiple times) if I wanted it with lamb.
Finally a woman came on the line and she was able to take my order, saying that it would come with a "side of meat sauce" and spinach. When my son got home with it, though, there was no meat sauce. Instead, there were chick peas. I really would have preferred the meat sauce, but at that point I didn't want to deal with them anymore. It had taken me over 10 minutes just to place the order.
I will probably go back again, but not for a while. And I'll always double check to make sure I've gotten what they promised. Posted on February 12, 2015 |
