#1 halal spot in Chicagoland, imo. Everything on the menu is good, I'm a big koubedeih fan with kabli Palau. The mint chutney is amazing.

Fantastic food with generous portions! The server team was attentive and helpful with recommendations. Takeout is great and the interior is lovely. There is lots of space for dining and they seem to get busiest later in the evening.

Make a reservation! The last time we came by, this place was packed! Food is delicious and I appreciate them letting us know that the chutney sauces and bread included with the meals, too.

I love this place and has become a regular lunchtime treat. Their lunch special is great! I wish they hadn't changed their bread but that won't keep me from coming back. Their veggie platter is amazing!

Great food and service. Christian was our waiter and he was very friendly and took great care of our party (9 people!). Food was delicious and they were ample portions (had lunch the next day with leftovers). BYOB but there is a small corkage fee.

We are so lucky to have Kabul near us. If you're vegetarian try the vegi ashuk. It's a perfect place for a nice dinner without pretension. Wear a suit for dinner and you won't feel out of place, but wear a hoody and same same. It's a must visit if you like or are open to bad ass Afghani food.

We were a party of six, staff were really attentive and patient, because we wanted to wait until sunset for the food.There was an abundance of everything and it was truly enjoyable .

The service was fantastic (shoutout to Billy). The restaurant is clean and has beautiful aesthetic. Also, the available parking spots in this new location is convenient. I ordered the spicy chicken kabob with Afghan rice. I cant even describe how good the food is at this place, it's an experience. Perfect spice and zest balance and tastes like the foods made using authentic Afghani recipes. But what put my dine in experience over the top was the amazing and attentive service, and the very sweet option of saffron tea, which I tried for the first time and was very pleased by the perfect blend of chai and just a slight hint of saffron that added to the flavor. I suggest anyone who is a chai drinker should order it. Btw I know they get busy, but I went when they weren't, and regardless of how busy they get, the foods always great.

In the late afternoon, around 4:00 PM, we visited Kabul House. Upon arrival, we found the restaurant to be entirely vacant. After a brief wait, we were ushered to our designated table. However, our anticipation turned to confusion as we sat there for a full ten minutes without any server attending to us. The conspicuous absence of service was particularly perplexing given the restaurant’s overall emptiness. Meanwhile, the wait staff engaged in animated conversations amongst themselves, seemingly oblivious to our presence. Regrettably, this lackluster experience left our family profoundly disappointed, and we cannot recommend dining at this establishment when in the vicinity.

Service and food quality is consistently good. Try many appetizers, as these are some of the best things on the entire menu!

Outstanding food and service. The ambiance was really good. Their beef skewers were awesome. I recommend that The food can be more authentic to Kabul,it was more on the Mediterranean side.

Had to lamb shanks absolutely delicious. The staff is friendly. The rest around is cleaned. I'm very pleased. I definitely will come here again.
