Afghan Village - Boroondara

Loved trying Afghan food for the first time! I tried a lentil curry and potato curry which were so tasty!<br/ <br/ The team here are so friendly, love the atmosphere. Would definitely go back!

We went on a weekday, and I was very happy to discover this quiet place where to go with friends with whom you can have a pleasant conversation. Indeed, most places in Australia are a bit loud for my standards and I have a hard time engaging in a conversation. <br/ <br/ We also really enjoyed the food: dip naan and Sahakyan as entrees, lamb karma, chicken kebab, and gulpee korma as main course. The owner is a nice guy that will help you choosing, if you have any doubt.<br/ <br/ <br/ <br/

We understand that this restaurant has been here over 25 years. We can see why. The decor, service and food is authentic, genuine and really enjoyable. It’s so obvious that the food here is cooked with love and pride. We had never had Afghan food before. It’s sort of like a mixture of middle eastern, Asian and Indian even. This is probably misleading though. It is it’s own cuisine of course with a rich history and it’s very tasty and rustic on what we had here. We loved every single dish we tried. We had the Badenjan Bourani, Ashak, Mantoo, Qorma Badenjan, Qorma e Gulnee, Beef Kabuli Palau and Chicken Khandahsti. I think the memory of the food that will stay with me the longest is the subtlety and depth of the spicing in a number of the dishes. Corkage was very reasonable at $5 a bottle. Always good to be able to take a special bottle of your own. Our thanks to the owner manager here who is a lovely man. There was some serious discussion at our table (an upcoming wedding! and he allowed us to stay to finish the chat. An excellent restaurant that we strongly recommend for a great nice out.

Great hospitality and atmosphere. Came here with a voucher and enjoyed the korma lamb curry which was the highlight for us. Great for vegetarian. Very clean and healthy food.

The best Afghani restaurant I've been to. Being a vegetarian, lots of options, wonderful flavours, super-friendly staff and overall an amazing experience. highly recommend and I will definitely be back.
