Reviews for Shish Kebab House of Afghanistan in West Hartford, CT

Two of us enjoyed dinner and drinks on a Saturday evening. Without reservations we had a wait and sat at the bar once bar chairs... opened up. The hostess seemed to have forgotten about our seating request but promptly filled the request when we inquired aboutour table status. We ordered the mantoo appetizer followed by the beef tenderloin kebab and the rack of lamb kebab. Allwonderful dishes as were the cocktails. If you're looking for Afghan cuisine and in West Hartford, we recommend trying it out. Read more

Delicious food, great ambiance, amazing staff and excellent service. Food quantity was really great and food taste was amazing.... Really enjoyed having dinner here and can’t wait to come back again. Read more

Tried their Chicken platter which was totally bland. Chicken pieces and spinach rice had no taste. Not enough falafel as per the... price. Drinks were good though. I don't think I will go back there. Spent 80$ which wasn't worth it. Read more

After a disappointing experience elsewhere in Connecticut the previous night, we came here for Hookah and this place did not... disappoint. They have a wide flavor selection from Adalya, Starbuzz, Al-Fakher as well as Paan flavors. The mix I ordered wasprepared well and tasted very balanced as well as pulled well. I would like to see this place step up the pipes with Lotus heatmanagement devices and bowls to really put the experience over the top. Overall, I definitely would return here. Therestaurant is huge but the section for hookah is small and they get very busy at night. Be wary of this as the wait times canbe exceedingly long. Read more

Food quality is really good. I just love their chicken kabab meal. Halal food!

The food here is so good. It tasted so fresh! It was a very fulfilling meal. Came here a month ago with my mom and we really... enjoyed it. The wait was not long and the waitresses were super nice! Overall we had a great time here and we felt welcomed. Idefinitely recommend that people eat at this restaurant! Read more

We had the chicken shami and the mix kabab platter, it was good. The best part of the platter was the eggplant it was so tasty!... The chicken and shrimp kabab was good. The mutton kabab were dry but when we informed the wattress she was nice enough to giveus complementary mutton curry which was good! The Afghani tea was worth a try, one would never imagine there was beet juice init. The hummus was also good! We had a nice experience here! Read more

Good place, good ambience. Had chicken kebab, lamb kebab, spinach, eggplant, brown rice (not brown), spinach rice. All tasted... good. Not very authentic so taste is on the mild side. Good average place that I would go there once a year but nothing thatwould bring me back frequently. Read more
