This was the best restaurant i have ever been too. Great service, even greater food, and such a rich cultural environment with a very nice atmosphere. I definitely recommend checking out this outstanding restaurant.

We visited this place as of our relative had a pleasent experience.The owner was trying to be helpful but couldn’t handle a large group. I could give them benefit of doubt being it was a weekday and almost end of the shift. Individual Orders were combined together and we felt the sides and quantity were compromised. Ending up ordering more food with spending awful lot of money.

Express Kabob was an unexpected delight. The menu was fairly simple- kabobs, bolani, lamb shank, badenjan- fast casual style. It was a little pricier than I would probably spend for lunch normally ($10-20) however, the food was made fresh and the service was friendly and welcoming. The inside is cozy- probably seats about 70 and had more charm than I generally expect for a small diner. There was some outdoor seating under shade, as well. It was my first visit and I had koobideh kabob with hummus, pulao, and naan. It was delicious. I’m looking forward to trying the kabuli pulao next time!

My boyfriend and I stumbled upon Express Kabob by accident. Oh, wow, the chicken kabob was so tender and delicious. The express kebab Afghanistan style ice cream was homemade and out of this world. I highly recommend coming here you will not be disappointed.

Expecting just a quick dinner, I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the food and the hospitality of the owners. The lamb kebobs were top quality and delicious. We topped off our dinner with the best rice pudding I have ever had, and then had hand made ice cream. Simply delicious. Excellent service. Truly 5 star!

Express Kabob Restaurant is a true culinary gem! From the moment I stepped inside, I was greeted with warm smiles and the enticing aroma of freshly grilled kabobs. The menu offers a delightful variety of Afghan and Middle Eastern dishes, all prepared with care and precision. The highlight, of course, is their kabobs. The meat is tender and flavorful, marinated to perfection, and cooked over an open flame for that authentic smoky taste. The portions are generous, making it a great value for your money. But it’s not just about the kabobs. Their appetizers, like the mantu and bolani, are equally delightful. The flavors are rich and aromatic, a true representation of Afghan cuisine. 10/10 definitley recommend!
