Balkh Restaurant

“The food the ambiance and the service were excellent.”

It's a normal local restaurant, named after a cultural and historic city in N Afghanistan. The staff were welcoming, and easy to talk with, no concerns about the service. The food is very fresh and tasty. The humus is made daily from scratch, the lemonade is made daily from scratch. They are both very delicious. I don't think they keep their own chickens, but my chicken and spinach curry also had a fresh taste, and was just right - not overcooked or greasy. I think the lemonade was the best part!

Lovely looking place, warming and welcoming, modern and very clean. I went in for Bamia ba Gosht, my favourite Afghan dish for take away. The waiter welcomed me straight away, heas polite and very friendly. While I was waiting for the chef to prepare my food, the waiter kept me company and we had a lovely chat, as the place was empty. I asked and was provided with the WIFI password as I was out of internet and needed to find my route via public transport. The food was ready quite quick, the chef also came to say hello. The food was very, very hot, it came with a portion of rice, 2 chilli sauce
