Traditional Afghan meal

by tksweetstuff at Citysearch

Let's see, I love the bread at Da Afghan, their nan-bread is always served very warm and soft and is very compatible to their homemade chutney sauces. Their lamb kabob was to die for, it may have been the most tender lamb I have ever had? Food quality was very acceptable and portions sized very well. I would recommend Da Afghan, which is some people's "Little secret," to anyone looking for a traditional afghan meal or just some flavor.

• Pros: Lamb, atmosphere, service
• Cons: Hard to find, odd location

Mpls's best Afghan Cuisine - Lamb and fantastic service!

by EatAroundTheWorld at Citysearch

OK first, I do have to admit that it was difficult to find the place...but WOW... it is definitely worth it!! The owner of the restaurant greeted our party of 4 as we walked in; we knew right away that it was a small quality family restaurant with very proud owners. The service was exceptional; the server explained the specialty items, the popular dishes, and highly recommended the lamb chops, which he said come directly from Rogers Farm in Hutchinson! A friend in our party and I consider ourselves lamb experts and were tempted but not sure of the lamb chops. But we trusted the waiter, and I am so glad we did! That night, both of us had the moistest, tenderest, and perfectly seasoned lamb chops with fine basmati rice, tomato based korma sauce, and some fresh vegetables? Afghan cuisine definitely won me over, it was the perfect choice. Overall I highly recommend the Da Afghan, we had never heard of it, but I will definitely be going back!

• Pros: Food, Service, Afghan Waiter, Hospitality, Afghan Decor on the Walls
• Cons: Location - just mapquest it and you'll be fine!

Total Rip OFF

by Myopinion16 at Citysearch

The food is delicious, but the prices are way too high... $100 for 3 guys, I think is a total ripoff, we had a lamb karee, chicken karee and Egg plant curry with a bottle of wine ($20) , there are better restaurants than this one with more quality food and reasonable prices, The waiter added gratuity for 3 people, which is very unfair, I think there should be atleast 5 people on the table to add gratuity, but for 3 it just BS. I'd never recommend this restaurant .......

• Pros: Food
• Cons: High Prices, Location, Gratuity for 3 people

Please try it

Perhaps I have eaten out too often in the past 25 years but tonight I said, this is a memorable meal. My husband ordered the beef tenderloin kabob, I had the kofta. I can't wait for the leftovers, even the rice was amazingly good with almonds and raisins. The wine list was simple but inexpensive. The service was personable and efficient. All Bloomington Knights of Columbus and spouses should try it (walking distance).

Food and Service is Exceptional

Family owned and operated and it shows! You truly feel like you are eating dinner in a close family friend's home. The servers made great recommendations of food to try and delivered great service. This restaurant delivers a value that you won't find many other places; an abundance of delectable homemade food awaits you at a reasonable price!

• Pros: Lunch buffet, service, food, ambience
• Cons: None
