I have no words but to say zooo weee maaamaa. If I may speak a bit in genz-z, this would was not ohio, striaght up bussin from every aspect. The owner and employees were nice and friendly. The chai there had just the right amount of sugar and milk with a memorable aroma. I was filled and sad I couldn't eat even more.

I'm not quite sure how we found this place, but it has been worked into our regular rotation for lunch. It provides a chill atmosphere and some very taste food. While they are usually lightly staffed when we come, the staff is always on point, friendly, and willing to help with selections.My go to has been their platters. You get plenty of protein, a heavy salad, and some amazing rice. I mean, I do not usually get to into rice, but their is great. One of the staff recommended this non-alcoholic beers they had it various flavors which I'm sort of hooked on. I can't remember the brand but I usually go Apple or Strawberry. Their Chai is also very good if you are in a tea mood. Overall, a clear recommend in my book. Enjoy!

This is a Kebab restaurant in Philly.It has modern vibes - not really a hole in the wall vibe. It feels upscale but still small. I got some platters and I really enjoyed it. Each table has three sauces. There is the white sauce, and a red and green sauce. The white sauce is good - like a mix between ranch and tzitzaki. The green sauce is minty, and the red one is spicy.I was really happy with the lamb. It was very tender and flavorful. It also came hot out of the grill. It didn't have a "strong" lamb flavor and was slightly smoky.The rice was super fragrant. I think it had a lot of butter or oil so it felt moist, and the carrots/raisons inside were a nice touch. The food went really well with the three sauces. There was also a good cardamom flavor inside.The food came with a ciabatta-like fried bread.I recommend this restaurant

I came here for lunch on a weekday and it was not too busy. I was immediately greeted by the worker who sat my wife and I, the proceeded to bring us a menu on their iPad. They did have a QR menu to scan in case you wanted to look on your own devices.We ordered the Combination Villakebab and Munto Dumplings (Beef) to share. After a short wait, the owner brought out a salad for us. I believe this was included with the Combination Villakebab that we ordered. The vegetables tasted fresh and the sauce was flavorful.Shortly, the chef himself brought out the Munto Dumplings. We got the beef. I had Chinese, Korean, and Japanese dumplings before but never Afghan dumplings. They tasted different but nonetheless delicious. They have a sauce put on top that resembles some form of chickpeas.The Combination Villakebab plate that came later was amazing! Very juicy kebab meats! They brought some sauces for us. I really enjoyed the spicy sauce, but all were very pleasant.I felt very welcomed at this restaurant as the owner was very attentive and friendly. Atmosphere is nice and quiet. Highly recommend giving this place a try.

Everything was so tasty!! The food was warm, delicious and reasonable. The owner was informative and friendly, with quick service. I got the beef dumplings at his suggestion: the dumplings were tender, the meat was a mix of beef with herbs, and served with lentils and a lentil sauce (I think) over a white sauce base. The chicken was red from spices, cooked prior to serving on kebabs, served on a bed of long grain rice with raisins & carrots, and served with three sauces: 1) white is yogurt?/mayo/sour cream with herbs, 2) green is cilantro/jalapeno & 3) the red is a habanero. They are all very tasty! Afghan (I assume) music is playing and it is generally an open room for dining. This is a convenient quick walk from the Hotel Palomar. I also got a chai to go. I paid $47.93 including a 20+% tip - reasonably priced!

Excellent portion sizes for the price! I was stuffed after half of my mixed platter and the rest was enough for a full lunch the next day. I love how flavorful the rice is (though it is pretty oily).

Gave Villekebabs a try for takeout and found it to be a quality meal. Had the chicken kebab platter. Chicken was delectable, super moist and flavorful, really enjoyed every piece. Would have liked there to be a bit more chicken relative to rice in the platter - felt the meal was a bit too heavy on the rice. I like the afghan rice as well, with its flavorful accompaniments and sauces. Salad was very simple, could have also been a bit larger. Overall really quality food / takeout option, but could have gotten a bit more value-wise for the chicken platter.

When arriving at this restaurant, you are quickly seated. We sat at a table of four in the center of the establishment which was nice because we could see the chef cooking meals in the back. We did notice not many people working, so the food and service was a bit on the slower end.The food was amazing; my friends and I each got a mixed plate and this dumpling-like dish to share. The flavors of the plate were amazing and paired well together. The portion is quite large, so it will definitely fill you up or you'll have a second meal saved for another day. It reminded me of halal guys to some extent but the flavors were more refined. The sauces elevated the overall dish; they are not immediately found at your table, so you will need to request it from the server. Dumpling-like dish was tasty. The filling was a beef filling and was juicy. The chickpea curry was a great touch to round out the saltiness of the filling. Would recommend trying this appetizer if you are willing to spend a couple extra dollars.

This place is amazing, it's clean, food delicious and fresh and great service. Been here twice and had the lamb shank special. Both times out of this world. Fresh and perfectly cooked.Seriously my work takes me all over Philly. This has to be one of the best places I've been to.
