Visited recently and noticed the change in management what a difference. The service was excellent, very welcoming and attentive. We ordered the kebab with Afghani naan, and it was absolutely delicious. The Afghani chicken soup was also outstanding. Everything felt fresh and well prepared. We really enjoyed our experience and will definitely be back.

Amazing food. Tried their Kabuli Pulao for dinner while traveling through Austin. Had to get back for breakfast for next morning. Tried their nehari, it was the best I ever had. The host Bibi was very friendly. Definitely recommend.

Went here for lunch and it tasted great! The inside was amazing and the food was fantastic and the service was excellent. We ordered the Kalubi Palow, Mantu Dumplings, and Karahi. The tea was solid as well. The naan was fluffy and the meat was flavorful. Will be back next time I’m in Austin.

Really good experience. Humble and kind owner. The service was top notch. Will always recommend the Lamb karahi. And the kababs.

Afghan Village in Austin is a hidden gem. The lamb karahi was slow-cooked to perfection with deep, comforting flavors. The kababs were smoky, tender, and seasoned just right, while the pulao was aromatic and balanced the meal beautifully. If you’re craving authentic Afghan food made with heart, this place won’t disappoint. Must visit this place

Super underrated food. If you’re looking for new flavors and just really good authentic food. Look no further. Come see them for breakfast, I came for lunch and it slaps.

After a long drive from Corpus Christi, an unexpected Google search led us to a surprising find—a modest Afghan halal restaurant tucked away near one of the first gas station buffets we encountered on North Lamar. Intrigued by the promise of authentic flavors, we stepped in and immediately appreciated the simple, unpretentious seating and a thoughtfully curated menu.
By the time we arrived, some of the popular choices had already disappeared from the display, heightening our sense of urgency. We quickly ordered a selection of dishes that spanned the best of Afghan cuisine: the flavorful chicken karhai, Afghan tandori naan, chicken kabob, and, notably, the famous kabli plauoo.
The kabli plauoo stole the show—each bite burst with aromatic spices and a comforting balance of textures that made it truly memorable. The chicken karhai didn’t fall far behind; its rich flavor profile hinted at a blend of traditional spices that warmed the palate. The Afghan tandori naan was a pleasant accompaniment, proving to be soft yet perfectly toasted, ideal for sopping up the sauces. Conversely, the chicken kabob, while prepared competently, didn’t quite match the impact delivered by its fellow dishes.
What made the meal even more enjoyable was the warmth of the staff. Their friendly attitude and prompt service transformed our quick meal into a genuinely welcoming experience. For anyone cruising through Austin or seeking a taste of Afghan halal cuisine off the beaten path, this spot is a delightful, no-frills discovery that surprises with quality and authenticity.
Exploring unconventional dining options can be an adventure—sometimes, the best culinary experiences come from unexpected stops. Whether you’re a local or a traveler on the hunt for something unique, this Afghan restaurant on North Lamar is worth the detour.

If you’re craving authentic and delicious Afghan food in Austin, Afghan Cuisine is an absolute must-try! From the moment you walk in, the warm aromas and friendly service make you feel right at home. The menu is filled with flavorful classics like Qabuli Palaw, goat and chicken Karahi, juicy kebabs, and fresh naan all prepared with rich spices and generous portions that won’t disappoint.

Austin has long been overdue for a sit-down Afghan restaurant. For years, we’ve had to make pilgrimages to San Antonio for our Kabuli Palaus and Mantus. Finally, we have a proper Afghan restaurant right here in the city.
I had an amazing meal here the other day. This location seems to change frequently—it started as Afghan Village, which was sold, and now it’s Afghan Cuisine. This was my first time dining here, as I didn’t get a chance to visit under the previous ownership.
We ordered the Afghan Mantus, Tikka Kebab, Kabuli Palau, and Lamb Karahi. They also served us a side of lentils and plenty of Tandoori Naan, which I believe comes with several of the dishes.
The Tikka Kebabs were an absolute hit, and the Lamb Karahi, with its spicy, flavorful gravy, was my personal favorite. The Tandoori Naan was just the best. While I’ve had better Mantus and Daal at other places, and the Kabuli Palau was a bit on the dry side, everything was still quite delicious, and we left very satisfied.
Our party was 5 people and all that food above was just about the right amount for all of us averaging around $20 per person.
There are some things to improve though. The service was somewhat slow. The communication could be clearer. Toward the end of our meal, one of the servers mentioned something we couldn’t quite understand. We later realized she was offering complimentary Afghan tea, but it wasn’t clear at the time, so we turned it down. Also, when we asked for water, they served bottled water for a charge instead of complimentary tap water in glasses, which was a bit unexpected.
Overall, these were minor issues, and the meal was fantastic. I’ll definitely be back!

We were visiting Austin from NY and were invited to Afghan Cuisine restaurant. The place was clean and the service was great. The food came very fast. But the food was out of this world. The naan, chapli kebab and the Afghani rice were amazing. The chicken karahi was good too. I haven’t had this good Afghani food in NY. I am definitely going to this spot if I am ever in Austin again.
