I arrived 10 minutes later than the expected time the food would be ready, but the lady there said she needed 10 more minutes. She was the only person there-cooking, handling the register, and tending to customers. I came bck after 12 minutes and my order still wasn't ready and I was the only one left at that point. I waited an extra 30 minutes! The chicken 5. Chicken Gyro was the worst I've ever tried. The meat did not taste good. The onions were old, and the cabbage was bitter. It was also soaked in the yogurt sauce. She also messed up my order and gave me a lamb shank dish instead of the Lamb Kabob Plate. The lamb shank was so gamey. The 4. Beef Koobideh Kabob and 1. Chicken Afghani were mediocre. The flavor was okay, but the meat was so dry. The hummus was awful. The rice was probably the best thing on the plate. I would not recommend this place. I'm bummed Azeen's in Pasadena closed. I have yet to find an Afghani restaurant in LA that comes close to Azeen's.

I am very familiar with Afghan food and love it. I lived in Kabul before the Russian invasion.
This is not what I thought I would get. I called before I ordered and asked if the " Afghan rice" they have was "Kabuli Pilau" the answer was yes. It was not, no raisins, no candied carrots or orange peel. Very dry as it was made and sat around.
We spent over $200 dollars on this very poorly made dinner.
Kabob was dry, dumplings looked and tasted like they had been around for awhile.
Over all a lousy meal and very disappointed.
My family , who were also very familiar with this food, said toss it. We did!
I hate to knock a restaurant but this was really way off.
