⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing Afghan Cuisine Experience! I recently visited Afghan Cuisine in Ajax, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it the perfect spot for a relaxed meal. The staff were friendly, attentive, and very knowledgeable about the menu. The naan bread was fresh and delicious, and the sauces added a great touch. If you’re looking for genuine Afghan food in the Ajax area, this place is a must-try!

We recently dined at this restaurant and I must say, it was an good experience.The decor was elegant, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. The food, was the true highlight. We ordered Combo-2 which is Chicken tikka + Chicken Seekh. It was served with Salad and Naan. The flavors were vibrant and perfectly balanced.

Amazing place. Definitely a hidden gem. We came here and go their family max meal. We were 4 ppl and it was enough food for us and super delicious. The service was great too with the lady working there. The tenderloin, minced meat and the chicken were very juicy. The spicy meat patty was very good as well. The rice dish is the highlight along with the potato appetizer. The two sauces (yogurt and this tangy sauces go very well with the food). The beef qorma was a nice addition to the meal with the rice. Highly recommended as a meal here with the group.

Food was fresh, atmosphere was great. Prices are unbeaten. The beef tikka was juicy, well marinated and well cooked. Kabuli palao was great. Chicken tikka and chicken kababs were the best in town. This will be my my only restaurant in Ajax.

First time trying Afghan food. A bit lost at first because there were too many choices. Everything was tasty. We had different meals and enjoyed all. I really support local businesses and diverse cultural food because it allows us to try other things locally. Their sauces were delicious too. One thing that surprised me was the speed of preparing the food for the to-go option. It was also nice that they gave us their lunch special flyers if you want to try their cuisine on a more affordable budget. This a type of food that I would buy again and share with more family or friends members. The inside place looks beautiful and very clean.

Just got back after a most satisfying dinner at Afghan Cuisine, Ajax (Costco Plaza). Neat and tidy. Tables were clean. We ordered the Combo2 Dinner which came with a salad, bread, pilaf rice, Chicken Tikka and Chicken Seekh kebob. We also had a Chaplee kabob dinner. Each item was very very good. In some places chicken kebobs tend to dry out but here it was succulent. Service was quick and courteous. Thanks so much to the chef and staff. Hope they maintain these standards. Thanks also to everyone who took the time to post your comments that s what made us venture to this hidden gem as someone called it. Parking: Sat 8PM plenty of parking. Costco is closed maybe thats why.

The cost of food these days is so exspensive. $18 plus tax for this lamb shank dinner with naan and I bought 3. I would rather pay for quality food than fast food anytime. I always buy the lamb when I come here. I brought my 10 and 11 year olds here to try the lamb and they were in love. We all have lunch for the next day because we were stuffed to the brim with only a few bites. The flavor of the lamb is lovely and I always love me some basmati rice. My kids have never had raisins in their rice before. They liked it. They though that they loved the Lamb Tikka until they tried the shank, they are now In love

First time trying Afghan food. We decided to try this place out with some coworkers. We got the Mantu, which was SO good, it was kind of like a perogi stuffed with a really nicely seasoned ground beef, it was so warm and comforting! I loved the Bolani! It was delicious with a nice mild heat to it. We got the chicken tandoor and the regular chicken BBQ plate, both were great but I d get the tandoor over the other one. Love the rice and the salad which was so refreshing! I can t wait to eat my leftovers and get this again, with trying more of the menu.

Wanted to grab a quick takeout meal and decided to try this place as it was right in front of me. Got the chicken wrap which was just $9. Was pleasantly surprised by the taste and the freshness. Great bread, fresh veggies in a nice vinaigrette and juicy chunks of chicken! Giving it 4 stars coz there were was no option to get a larger wrap or to double the meat. Else all good. Will try it again soon for a full meal.

I recently dined at Afghan Cousin and unfortunately had a rather disappointing experience. Upon arrival, the service lacked professionalism, and the welcome felt noticeably cold. This set a somewhat negative tone for the meal. We ordered the grilled salmon, but it was overcooked to the point of being inedible. The fish was so hard that we couldnt even chew it, which is unacceptable for any dining establishment. When we brought this to the attention of the staff, they did not acknowledge or accept our feedback, which further added to our disappointment. Given the lack of warmth in service and the quality of the food, I cannot recommend Afghan Cousin. There are certainly better dining options available.

This was the first time i came to this restaurant. The place was great. The food was great but i did not like the service at the end. We were 3 people had lots of leftovers. When i went up to the cashier to ask for containers so we can pack up the food to take home. I was only allowed to get one container and that I had to pay to get the extra containers that didnt sound right. I paid for the meal now i have to purchase containers too so i can take the food home was not happy.

I recently had lunch with my family at Afghan Cuisine. I am deeply disappointed with the experience. Despite the food being decent, the customer service left much to be desired. We spent more than a hundred dollars, yet the staff were incredibly stingy and unhelpful. They did not even care to ask us if everything was fine with the food. From the moment we walked in, it felt like the staff had an attitude especially the female waitress with chiseled looks as well as the man with the beard and baseball cap. Simple requests for extra napkins, water, lemon slices, or containers for takeout sauces etcetera were met with reluctance and a lack of courtesy. It was as if we were asking for too much, which is not what I expect when dining out, especially at a place that prides itself on Afghani hospitality. I ve always believed that Afghani hospitality is among the best in the world, known for being warm and welcoming. Unfortunately, our experience at Afghan Cuisine at this location was quite the opposite. The service was cold, unwelcoming, and far from the hospitable nature I ve heard so much about. This not only ruined our meal but left us feeling upset and disheartened. They were very quick and efficient to charge our payment method though. I hope this review helps others understand the kind of service they might encounter at Afghan Cuisine. It s important to know that while the food might be okay, the poor customer service can significantly impact your overall dining experience. I genuinely hope the management takes steps to improve their service and live up to the true essence of Afghani hospitality !!! UPDATE ON MOST RECENT VISIT BELOW. **ZERO Star** My experience at this restaurant was appalling, especially considering my previous poor visit. The food is decent, but the customer service is severely lacking. During my recent visit, an employee wearing a hijab and glasses with an Indian accent took it upon herself to open my bag without permission and remove items that were incorrectly packed. This was done with no explanation or apology. When I called to complain, she was unhelpful and dismissive and even questioned me why I would like to speak to the manager. The items in question were 2 extra boxes of salad which she could have just given me out of goodwill since it was their mistake to have packed it incorrectly. They totally did not follow the correct customer centric protocol and procedures to remove items from a customers packed and knotted plastic bag infront of the customer. This restaurant and their management is truly selfish and stingy for small things to say the least when the customer regardless, is paying for their business and salaries!! Additionally, the other staff member, who seemed to have a middle eastern background, was rude and unprofessional. When I requested an itemized receipt, she responded with an attitude, saying she had just come to work and didn t want to be bothered. The manager I spoke with was equally unhelpful and refused to provide his name or address my concerns properly. The disregard for customer service and proper protocol at this restaurant is shocking. While the food might be acceptable, the poor service and disrespect make it hard and almost impossible to recommend. I strongly advise others to think twice before dining here as it will surely leave a TERRIBLY bitter aftertaste which may ruin the rest of your day !!!

Really well made and tasty menu items. We tried the beef tikka, chicken tikka, tandoori tikka, lamb tikka and seekh kebab and every item was tender and delicious!

Ordered from them recently and was a bit disappointed. The naan break was stale and did not have much flavour. Spinach and rice was great tasting, but very oily. I usually love this kind of cuisine, but it did not live up to my expectations, unfortunately.

I LOVE AFGAN CUISINE. I heard about this place at a neighbors summertime outdoor party. The couple we spoke to raved about AFGAN CUISINE. They loved the rice, the portion sizes, and of course the delicious meat. We had to try and it didnt disappoint. In our first week weve been back 3 times already. We love the atmosphere, the staff, and the food is absolutely incredible. Finally, the price is beyond reasonable. Youll leave full, content, likely have left overs. Well back very, very soon.

Jabeer from the restaurant greeted well and helped much. We all liked her hospitality. She mentioned that lamb shank is their top rated meal and have to visit particularly taste it the next time Kid-friendliness: Yes it is Wheelchair accessibility: Entrance accessible through wheelchair and saw separate washroom people who require wheelchair access

I was really appalled with the experience I had today. I called and placed an order for the Lunch wrap special, and in this case it was the chicken chaplee. However, when I got there they told me they had beef on the grill and asked me to wait longer so they could put chicken on. I was flabbergasted with this and decided to just take the beef as my lunch break time was dwindling. However, after I went to get a drink (which is included with the special) the girl there tried to deny me. I told her to look at the lunch special again as I have been there before! She finally conceded and responded with an abrasive attitude with the comment :Well Im new here. Honestly when I walked in she had ear phones on and looked to be laughing at a Tik Tok video. Maybe take the earphones out and do some damn training. Please familiarize this individual on the procedures and specials of your establishment. The audacity of her flippant response! She was working 28/08/2023 at around 3 p.m.

We really enjoy middle eastern food and can definitely recommend this restaurant. It s not fancy - you order at the counter and they bring your food to your table when ready.

Great food but its underrated. Ordered just one combo for 2 of us with a kid, which the lady at the service happily recommended and customized for us to accommodate our kids palette. Came with 3 different preparation of kebabs. Both the white and the red dips tasted unique. Came with Rice and a special naan which were also cooked well. We like the salad too. Simple yet satisfying Afghani food. Shafa was great to interact with and very kind and friendly. Will surely come back again.

I can t possibly say enough about this restaurant. The atmosphere is very inviting and comfortable. The chef obviously takes pride in his dishes and I discovered new delicious flavours that just wowed me. Even though I was completely full half way through my meal, I continued to take more bites I m pretty disciplined normally. The rice is amazing and the chicken skewer was flavourful and juicy but had a lovely crisp coating. I will not only be back for more but I will make sure to tell others to try their amazing food as well. Thank you!!
