5.0 of 5 stars. The mostly vacant strip mall reminds me of a white-washed Mexican villa, but the arches almost evoke images of Buddhas carved into limestone clifts in the Bamiyan province of Afghanistan...

Yelp.com Review - by Margo R.

5.0 of 5 stars. Based on Bay Area standards I'd give this a 4 but based on the food I've had in the Sacramento 'burbs this was stellar. We took my dad there for his 82nd birthday and they had never had Afghani food....

Yelp.com Review - by Caroline C.

5.0 of 5 stars. Before I begin my review, I'd like to point out a few things. The reason that this restaurant gets five stars (from myself and nearly all of the past reviewers) is because it is truly a five-star...
