First time to this restaurant and we will be back! Very tasty food, filling and cheap! BYO including your cooler bag to keep drinks cold. Staff were very polite and hard working perhaps needing one more server. Great to see a local family business doing so well. View all feedback.

What Helene Predovic dislikes about Bamiyan:
Good food but very bad service. The staff are rude . We ordered a youghurt drink for two people and they brought us two jugs of the drink rather then two glasses and demanded that we pay for both even though they did not explain it on the menu and did not inform us. The service was terrible with all the mains arriving before the starter . No plates given . If you are interested in their food then I will recommend pi... View all feedback.

This place is fantastic. Very casual atmosphere. Have eaten here twice in the last few weeks and have also got take out once before. Wonderful and delicious food everytime! The dumplings are too good. Everything I have tried has been great. Excellent value for money. Highly recommend!

Afghan cuisine is absolutely incredible and highly underrated. Recommend the mantu (spiced meat dumplings) and the charcoal kababs with the fresh bread which is amazing. The kabuli palau was very good but not as authentic as i would have liked. the owners need to put more carrots, slivered almonds and slowly tenderised lamb shanks in the palau. Still recommend it as it is Afghanistans national dish and a favourite. Overall, a fantastic dining experience and a lively atmosphere. Highly recommend

The service is so crapy. Unfriendly staff, you need to go to counter back and forth to remind them to come and get your order or bring what's left. They don't bother to bring your food to you, they just dump the whole dishes in front of one, then you need pass the dishes by yourself. With that prices, simply it doesn't worth the wait and hustle. I never go back and will try other afghani restaurants.

I have never tried Afghan cuisine before and was excited to try something new. The food and service were excellent, deserving a 5-star rating. I couldn't finish my meal because there was so much food, but I truly enjoyed it. Thank you so much, I will definitely be returning.
