Afghan Kabob - Wrightstown: Reviews & Ratings
This place is absolutely a hidden gem. Had a Chicken Gyro and Mixed platter and both were absolutely top notch. Sauces are great as well. Ingredients are fresh and absolutely worth the wait to have the food cooked fresh. Highly recommend.
Talk about a hole in the wall amazing gem! I went here for the first time and it was amazing. This isn't the place for you if you only have 30 min for lunch. Expect to wait a little bit because the food is made fresh and to order. But it is worth the wait. Full of flavor!! Engulfs your taste buds. Enjoy!
The price is absolutely worth the food! Veteran ran and owned! I received a free drink just because it was my first time ordering and the owner is such a kind soul! I was so full looked down and still had more than half my plate left! The lamb and chicken were juicy and tender! Melts in your mouth. I will make it a mandatory once a week trip from now on.
Got the special, worth the wait! I mean it. So Faire, (Fa-ree) is a one man stop shop! He may look intimidating but has a very kind demeanor. He does clarify with his customers. He was very organized and clean, had previous experiences from the Middle East on the wall. I like orange interior decorations. Had lunch with the buds, no fountain drinks here folks. But he does offer some cold Pepsi products and other items. It almost took 30 minutes tp an hour, but it was lunch time, and the sign you see explains why it worth the wait ;) Food: So got the special! Damn it was alot, and I am happy about the serving size gor the price. The rice, I kept going back, I ate it all! The chickpeas, I think, were super soft to chew almost baked bean like. The salad was refreshing and the tomatoes help cleanse your palate. The tazitiki sauce was delicious, kinda like "ranch" and the green sauce was similar to like a green "verde". Very balance sealed and best part was served with naan/pita bread, which tasted so good when you put everything on. The Lt had a Gyro was huge for a gyro...I was jealous, he recommended it and stated it was defintely better than the food truck on base...sorry guys. It may look pack, but he serve his good fast and extremely fresh! Warning: He only accepts the following payments and has a QR code ready for ypu to pay. Physical Cash. (Recommend bringing $25-30) CashApp Venmo Zella I think.
Afghan Kabob absolutely blew me away! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hands down the best food I’ve had in a long time. Every bite was packed with flavor, the meat was perfectly seasoned and tender, and the portions were generous. If you’re looking for a spot that delivers incredible flavor, fresh ingredients, and that comforting “wow” moment with every bite… Afghan Kabob is it. I will absolutely be back!
Perhaps the best kept secret in Wrightstown, New Jersey. Fresh ingredients with authentic atmosphere…straight from Afghanistan to your taste buds. Call ahead at least 30 minutes to allow your meal to be prepared, because this is not fast food or good food…it’s GREAT food!!
This evening I had an absolutely delicious chicken kabob! The flavors were perfectly balanced and the meat was cooked to perfection. The dish was accompanied by a medley of fresh vegetables and fluffy rice, which made for a delightful and filling meal. What really made my experience stand out, though, was the exceptional customer service provided by the cashier. This person, who happened to be of Irish, Polish, and Greek descent, was not only friendly and welcoming but also incredibly funny! His jokes and quips were entertaining. Overall, I had a fantastic experience at this restaurant and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for delicious food and outstanding customer service. From the amazing chicken kabob to the hilarious and friendly cashier, this place is definitely worth a visit!
Absolutely fantastic place. I ordered the Lamb kabob plate, and it was delicious. I can not recommend this place enough!! I will be coming here everytime I am in the area!!
