Ghazni Afghan Kabobs & Catering

Food is very delicious and tastes very fresh. I love the Falafel plate! They always give you a lot of food and the prices are reasonable.

I probably scoped out their original location on A St. within their first month of opening. I knew that they would do well as long as locals were down with trying anothers culture's cuisine. Sure enough they did well enough that a second location opened up in the same town. Except the second location seems more specialized, more into catering, doesn't seem like a regular restaurant in hours of operation and in vibe. The day I came in for a pick-up order, the whole dining room looked all set up all formal, like a wedding reception. I almost thought I was at the wrong business, but sure enough I was able to pick up at a register in the corner. I love Afghan bbq, like when they patiently grilled marinated meats on skewers and serve with basmati rice with accompanying sauces and chutneys. I'm from Fremont where we have a wealth of Afghan eateries, so I've been eating this type of food most of my adult life. And just like my original review from the A St. location, Ghazni does a very decent job at giving you the Afghan flavors and techniques unique to that culture. Now when I rate them alongside my faves in Fremont, now they seem to be more in the middle of the pack. But even that is good enough for most and should impress enough to put Afghan food into anyone's back pocket. Chicken and Beef Kabob Combo ($20/4*) Both pretty good, well marinated chunks of meat are grilled with enough char to give you bbq vibes. Their seasoning is on point, I just found the bites to be a tad drier than my favorite place in my town. I also forgot that they serve more of spiced (brownish) basmati rice over a basic white basmati. I find the neutral white version better to go with those flavorful meats. And don't neglect the green and red sauces that go with, they both add another boost to an already flavorful bites. Lamb Kabobs ($23/4.5*) I liked these a tad more than the beef as they were more tender and the lamb flavor hits. I would probably make this my go-to dish here. So same food as I remembered from their original location, just a much different vibe and hours of operation. This one is actually much more convenient for me as it is right off of a freeway. So if I can meet their hours, this is a legit and viable score.

My family just threw a henna party for me at this location and it was amazing! I would give 10 stars if I could. First of all the dining room decor is so elegant. Parking was great I don't think any guests had issues. The food was top notch. We had a mixture of Afghans/Americans and everyone raved about the food. I'm Afghan and the quality was excellent, I ate my whole plate. Unfortunately I forgot to take pictures of the food but trust me it was so good! They helped set up the henna artist in a proper location. The owner even personally congratulated my husband and I which I so appreciated. I look forward to renting this restaurant again for future events.

Went back here for my husbands BD on 11/16/24 . There were 10 of us to celebrate and we had a wonderful time. The food was "GREAT" and the service was "GREAT" ( they had just gotten done with a big party held there ) our waiter was busy keeping up with us all but he did very well and was Nice and very Friendly , the ambiance was "GREAT" also . Most time we order takeout and the food has always been delicious but this time my kids made a reservation and I must say it was a wonderful experience being there, this is a family run business and has wheelchair access. This is my second review for them and I must say I'm very happy with our experience there and we all were happy with all of our different orders and the food was delicious to us all. Thank you to the family of Ghazni for the delicious food and thank you to our waiter, we all had a nice time

Went back again, this time Ihad the lamb kabobs with no rice so they gave me extra salad, it was so yummy. Cant wait to go back and try the tri tip next time!

Placed an order for a lunch pickup on a Monday afternoon. A nice lady answered and I placed an order for the Shami kabob plate and a Triple Combo plate. She said the order would be ready in 20 minsMy husband went to pick up the order and said the order was fresh off the grill. They packed everything up and he was out of there within 5 mins. We live about 7 mins away so everything was still nice and hot by the time my husband came home with the food. Tbh, I was worried the food would be dry and flavorless as a lot of kabob places I've tried in the Bay Area but this was quite the opposite. My order Shami kabob plate is made of ground beef and it was juicy and flavorful, hot off the grill. The salad and dressing was fresh. The side of chickpeas and potatoes was delicious and refreshing with the green sauce. I would recommend this place. I think the total for two plates is about $40 which I believe is average these days. It's definitely good here and I will continue supporting this local business!

Loved the ambience and the waiter, the food was great Kabuli Pulao and Falooda ice cream. I could not finish the ice cream and too it as breakfast or snack.

Got here late afternoon and absolutely nobody was here, just a really big empty dining room. Ordered some typical meats with the fixins and thoroughly unimpressed. Maybe I just ordered the wrong thing but my meat was quite bland and the rice was even more so. I'm not even sure how rice can get even more bland because that's all it is but idk maybe the texture was just weird. For there being absolutely nobody there, our server was pretty good at disappearing too LOL. Food: 3/10 Service: 4/10 Vibes: 4/10Value: 4/10

I did their lunch buffet. I personally like their veggie dishes better. The salad was quite fresh and the dessert wasn't outrageously sweet which I enjoyed:)

DO NOT GO HERE worst decision of my life for sick for 2 days straight and the owner is so messed up blocked me after I complained... not how customers should be treated it's truly sick how he talks to you and then blocks you ! Go to other afghan authentic restaurants and save yourself a medical bill!This is his reply to my post earlier..
