The food portion is quite small and insufficient to satisfy hunger. Prices are high in comparison to other nearby restaurants with similar ambiance and pricing. Customer service was average; staff showed limited attentiveness and did not thoroughly explain the menu, which made it difficult to choose the appropriate portion sizes. The bread served is very small, about the size of few bite, and appears to be of low quality. Overall, the experience is average, with nothing particularly memorable about it. Additionally, some plates emit a noticeable moldy smell, possibly due to improper drying or storage. Half of the dessert options on the menu are unavailable, yet they are still listed, which is disappointing. Based on this experience, I do not think I will visit again.

Very good Middle Eastern food — fresh, tasty, and full of flavor! Everything tasted authentic and delicious, and you can really tell the ingredients are fresh and high quality. The dishes here are more flavorful and unique compared to other places. Great portions, great service, and amazing food — definitely a place worth coming back to! We have been everywhere but I like this place more . Dine in , to go and delivery same price and same quality. Thank you

Excellent & Exceeded Expectations! I’m very surprised at some of the bad reviews here, because we’ve eaten all over the world & this is one of the best restaurants we’ve eaten at. The venue is clean and simple, the server informed us that it’s their newer location. The server was extremely courteous & professional, explaining how the dishes were served & what to expect. There’s a Complimentary Salad that’s Dressed with an Oil/Vinaigrette, it was Fresh—so no one can complain about that. We started off with appetizers: Mantu, Bolani & Borani Badenjan (included Naan)—All Excellent! They were brought to the table adequately & hot (temperature). Flavors and textures were on point: tangy & semi-sweet sauce of the Borani & Mantu. The Meat Filling in the Mantu was Perfectly Seasoned, along with the Texture of the Dumplings. The Eggplant melts in your mouth & was not bitter whatsoever. The Bolani was Semi-Crisp, Tasty & Buttery. The Naans were baked to perfection & all were brought to us while piping hot. What place offers 12” Naans on this level for $1.70 per naan?! We then ordered the Challow Kebab with White Rice & Pulao—out of this world! Both Rices were steamed to perfection & aromatic in smell & taste. The Challow Kebab was super tender, cooked to perfection with slight charcoal aroma & flavor, minimal spices, which allowed the Natural Flavors of the Meat to be enjoyed. The Qabuli Pulao was on an entirely different level: Rice, Carrots, Raisins steamed with the Lamb Shank Broth was Memorable! Many restaurants over season this National Afghani Treasure with tons of Cumin, which can easily turn anyone off from the dish—NOT THIS ONE. When I say it was Perfect, I mean it! The Lamb Shank & It’s Fat were Perfectly Rendered Down& falling off the bone, I mean you could use your pinky finger with no force & it fell apart, ready to mix with the Rice. The Almighty God was with the Chefs. I was also happy to see the chefs, who were primarily, if not all females—doing their thing! Afghani Home Cooking had us smiling & wanting us to sleep there. Oh, the Afghani Green Tea—Perfect Combo of Afghani Green Tea & Cardamom with the Option to Sweeten with Honey or Sugar! Mango Juice was properly balanced. This review was of our own opinion, they didn’t remotely ask or mention anything, they simply served us what we ordered & paid for. Absolutely amazing! UPDATE: Went back again and it was EVEN BETTER! The “people” giving 1⭐️ are unreasonable, irrational & perhaps have something against Afghanis. Food at this level for such low prices is unheard of in this day and age. The Pulao can feed Two (2) People and with a Complimentary Salad and an Appetizer that Comes with Naan (Bread)—which is Consistently Delicious, there’s no way that anyone should be giving 1, 2, 3 Star Reviews.

My family and I have eaten here several times now and the food is constantly good. Even ordered online pickup and portions are just the same and full of flavor. I even made a mistake tonight by ordering from the Hillcroft branch (different website) and they assisted by making my order @ Mason Rd which was prepared really quickly. Thank Saffron, love the food! And of course, all halal!!

Lucky to have across this joint during our visit to Houston . Excellent chicken and beef kabobs. Borani Bandejan was a super tasty surprise. Mango juice is the real deal unlike the fake stuff in most restaurants. Will visit again … cheers 👍
