I wanted to try Afghan food and I decided to stop by Ruz Bukhari and I was not disappointed at all. They had the all you can eat buffet which was perfect, which allowed me to sample just about everything on the menu.
Overall, the food was outstanding and very delicious especially the rice. The server brought me hot pita bread to dip in my hummus which was excellent. Everything I tried was amazing with a lot of flavor.
If you want to experience a different cuisine in your own backyard, I highly recommend this restaurant because the food was delicious, service was excellent, and prices are just right.
Don’t wait, go now and enjoy.

Plenty of parking and rapid service with a buffet of reasonable quality. Not really a fancy place and average cost. Good food.
I’d eat there again.
English score 8/10.

Food was excellent, it was perfectly spiced with subtle flavors and the chicken was grilled perfectly very tender! Too often, at places like this their grilled chicken has ended up being dry, but not here. We would definitely come back just for the food.
After eating the food I definitely want this place to succeed, so I hope the below is taken as constructive criticism by the owners. And not a reason by anyone not to come.
The restaurant atmosphere felt a little worn down with inconsistent decor, and a bit dusty and sticky in corners. The flowers on the table were great and the solid glass and neat silverware in nice quality napkins was as it should be. The food looked way better in person than the menu pictures. And the yogurt drink (doog) looked and tasted fantastic. (The menu pictures looked like we were about to get greasy fast food, and I was nervous, but pleasantly surprised. Highly recommend getting some professional pictures and professional help to make your menu look less fast foody.) Some things that were left around looked a little sloppy. Eg. Paper goods piled in the corner, paper towel just tossed on the side of the sink instead of in the paper towel dispenser, duck tape holding wires in place, a grimy hand sanitizer bottle on the bathroom sink. I think a regular thorough cleaning, and some furniture, screens or basic decor to hide things like the paper goods and soft drink dispenser and some other odds and ends you have laying around would really help. Some simple prints to hide a few bathroom cracks and make sure that everything is properly cleaned to the corners and menus and high chairs and sanitizer bottles are regularly wiped down.
Also a little thing about water, having frequently lived overseas, I know that many places in Europe require you to buy the water. However, here in the US where the tap water is quite safe, most restaurants serve complimentary iced water. And this is generally the expectation for American customers, something small like having to pay for the rather small bottles of water could lead to American customers feeling offended and not returning.

Drove from miami to this spot. Have to say service was poor. The food was soggy and disgusting. What a waste of 85 dollars. I asked for hamburger they gave me Philly cheesesteak. I repeated myself 3 times knowing the girls English wasn’t good. I ordered gyro was stale and no flavor. The entree size was so small and the rice all sorts of spicy which wasn’t kabuli at all. The chicken tender were not fully cooked was soggy on the outside. The french fries were hard as well. The portions sizes are so small for the money you are paying.

We had a wonderful experience with the food! We decided to try their buffet, which was very reasonably priced, and we were thrilled to taste some authentic Afghani cuisine. Here’s a more detailed review:
Food:It was absolutely delicious! We enjoyed the Afghani palow and the chicken and beef seekh kebabs, which we truly loved. We also sampled some traditional green and tomato chutneys that paired perfectly with our meals.
Ambiance:The atmosphere was very pleasant and welcoming, which made our dining experience even better.
Seating Area:The seating was comfortable and provided plenty of space. However, we noticed that some of the dining seats could use new cushioning since the leather was starting to wear out.
Overall, it was a fantastic meal, and we can’t wait to go back!

The food was good and flavorful. The service was a bit slow. They seem to do more takeout and catering than dining in business. The big place was rather empty on a Saturday night. They charge tips on the total amount of food and beverage plus sales tax. They also charge more if pay by credit card.

The buffet was fabulous because I never experienced this type of food. I got the Buffet to eat all the different types of food from their country, everything tastes great, and the customer service was awesome. Great. There was not a lot of customers inside the restaurant because we came at 4:30 5:00 PM. I would recommend this restaurant and I will be coming back soon. Picture of my leftovers.

The food was incredible! We did their family style ruz Bukhari platter and the portions were very big and we had tons of leftovers! Absolutely coming back. Friendly staff made ordering very easy and made us feel very welcome!

I don’t usually tip full 20% on a buffet. But because of how beautiful the food is and I like the flavors I decided to do so after eating eating here a couple times…
I also think the owners are very friendly. I like the mellow music not harsh crazy dance or club music. I like to relax when eating good food.
A few wishes…
1. Regular plates
2. Actual tea cups because I don’t like drinking out of Styrofoam
3. Less grease on the cooked in hot bar egg plant dish
4. More grill charkle flavor on the kabob.
5. More fresh bread.
Other than that they welcome you here and the dishes are well made with flavor…

MUST TRY!
Amazing food and even better service. I visited this place while I stayed in FL. They close @ 10PM and I was headed there @9. I called ahead to see if I can order on the phone and it would be ready to eat when I got in. The man over the phone was super helpful and kind. We didn’t get there until 9:30 and I thought they would be upset. Omg. The man was super kind. When they say “protect this man at all cost” yuppp!
Food was amazing. And came out quick. We ordered the 5 Shanks + mixed platter. Yummy and huge.
Huge place inside. They also do hookah from what it seems like.
