Bamiyan is good for casual dining or take-out. This is my first time trying Afghan food; I expected it would be very similar to Persian cuisine, and I was right, but it seems to borrow some of that spicy kick from neighbouring Pakistan. The spice here is more of an undertone though, not overwhelming at all - it was probably my favourite part of the meal. I got the Tikka Kabob (beef) which came with salad, rice, and Afghan bread all for $12. Portions are very generous. The rice had a great flavour too, tasted like cinnamon and allspice. Service was good, I waited close to ten minutes for the food which is fine with me since its fresh. I'll be back for more take-out in the future!
