The prices are a joke! $29 for a plate of rice, and a small bit of eggplant and spinach. For $29 you can get lamb instead of spinach which seems more …

This is tucked away in Mornington very unassuming in decor from the outside, but wow it’s amazing when you get inside. The food is delicious, the service is pleasant. Highly recommend eating here.
Fantastic food in surroundings that whisk you away to a foreign land! Tasty if you like something exotic but not spicy. Family friendly and accomodating.
I went with a few friends last night. The menu was limited so 3 out of 4 went for the same traditional rice dish. Very tasty, filling and well presented. Service was okay. Place was not overly crowded for a Sunday night.
One of the more expensive dinner options in Mornington however has been well worth the money both times I’ve been.
Food so tasty it’s far too easy to over eat. Staff pleasant and attentive.
Will go again.
Such amazing food and different from anything else that I’ve eaten. This place makes you feel like you are in the Middle East and the food is full of spices and amazing flavours. I highly recommend here if you enjoy a little bit of spice.
Dear Fellow Foodies – I write to you from the lethargic depths of the most satisfying of food comas! I CAN’T RATE THIS PLACE HIGH ENOUGH!!!! There needs to be bonus stars for these rare finds!!!! I don’t even know where to begin. We didn’t have a booking but the bubbly waitress phoned us as soon as a table was available . I haven’t stopped smiling since I arrived! The staff were incredible! Couldn’t have been more obliging, even met two of the chefs and they were equally delightful!
I had never had an opportunity to try Afghani food before so I wanted to sample a variety! We ordered the mixed entree, kabuli palow, asshak, Nan breads, tomato salad and spicy capsicum / Mint yogurt accompaniments .
Mixed entree was a great idea ! We got to sample several things and it was all fantastic!
Kabuli palow we ordered with meat and it was similar to a biriani. Amazing flavour . Perfectly tender meat. Definitely the star dish! Don’t come here without ordering this!!!
Asshak we had with the meat sauce and it was also super yummy! Very unexpected dish. Reminiscent of a spinach ravioli?!
Tomato salad was very fresh and really lifted both the main dishes.
Nan was more like Turkish bread if you ask me buy married perfectly with the whole lot.
Accompaniment condiments were tasty but definitely not needed as all the dishes were so flavoursome and not at all dry on their own!!
Sadly (although not surprisingly) we were too full to finish with dessert. Instead we are now hanging out in the coolest little hangout they have set up out the back, smoking sheesha while lounging around on tapestry and cushions! I’m in heaven!
I will absolutely be back even though it’s such a ways out of Melbourne (not to mention my hometown Albury)
Delicious! I didn’t get to try as many menu
Items as I’d have liked, but the food is unusual and packed with flavour. The service was quick and the decor in the restaurant is fun, Interesting and authentic. I’ll definitely be back!
