Fresh Afghan Cuisine

The taste in the value of the food was excellent! I got a salad with their chicken for about $14. The gentleman taking the orders was super friendly and helpful with ordering. You definitely can't just sit there and eat unless you're sitting on one of the block walls that's kind of close by at the parking garage or one of the tables that's about 50 feet away. I highly recommend this food truck whenever you're at the Navy Yard.

I make sure to stop by when I'm in the area for work because this food truck is outstanding. The chicken is so flavorful and juicy- the spices really spot on. The Side salad and potatoes are my go-to. I wish it was closer to me because I'd be getting this everyday. The service is great & served with a smile. I love supporting this business and it's clear they know what they are doing with this food truck. A must try if you're in the yard.

Food trucks in DC look like circus quality food, but this was better than what you find at the county fair

Apparently, this food truck has been at the Washington Navy Yard for years. It's usually parked in between the clinic and the parking garage, near the smokers gazebo.There isn't much to say other than you can purchase decent Afghani from this stationary vehicle. The wait time is typical, the prices are fair, and the food won't disappoint. I recommend trying the gyro or the chicken and lamb platter. If you're getting a side, don't pass up on the chickpeas, spinach, or pita bread.Bottom line: great place for lunch if you happen to be at the WNY!

Back to the office for the first time in a while and of course I forgot to pack a lunch. Pre pandemic, there were a couple food trucks on the Navy Yard; DC Slices always had a line. And Fresh Afghan Cuisine has been here for a while, yet I've never given it a try. I opted for the gyro, which I figured would be your usual Greek diner deal: thin sliced gyro lunch meat on shredded lettuce with onions, hothouse tomato, tzaziki, and maybe feta or cucumber if you're lucky. What you get here is chunks of gyro seared on the flattop (if you've had Halal Guys, it's similar but much bigger chunks), served on a pita topped with chunks of iceberg (no paper thin shredded lettuce here) with onions, tomatoes, and a spicy white sauce. I want to say it's yogurt based, but there's some decent jalapeno-style heat going on. Just enough warmth to make it interesting and creamy enough to tie everything together. HUGE portion and a steal at $10 and the dude throws in a bottled water as well. When it's tough getting out of Five Guys without spending $20 and even McDonald's will run you $15, this is one of the best lunch deals in the neighborhood. Can't recommend them highly enough. Get the gyro and prepare to take a nap.

Amazing food! The best afghan cuisine here at d.c! For a foodtruck, production was fast! Presentation is awesome! I got the lamb, it was tender, flavorful and huge amount! Customer service is awesome! Amazing ladies! We at the navy yard approve this for the entire d.c! 2021!

The food is delicious and plentiful! Every time I visit the Washington Navy Yard, I definitely have lunch at the Afghan Food Truck. The owner is friendly and gives a free cold bottle of water and hot Afghan bread with every meal! Every dish is great and I usually eat the veggie platter! The food is delicious and very healthy! Don't miss your opportunity to lunch there!

When I was over at my Navy JAG appoint this past week turning in emails, I stopped by this delicious truck for a break from the back to back meetings and it was an amazing welcomed meal!! The line was my first indicator this had to be a winner and the friendly guy at the counter did not disappoint. Options were minimal, but the quality and quantity made up for it. We tried the lamb and rice meal, with a side salad (yogurt dressing) and pita... will absolutely be back here for my next upcoming appointment!!

Best place to eat at the Washington Navy Yard. I don't even go off base to any other restaurant. Why bother when the best food is right here? I normally get the chicken and ask for extra spicy but I have had the lamb. You can't go wrong with anything.

I have been working on the yard since 2015 and have been ordering here at least 2 times per month. Food is very delicious and full of favors. The chicken is amazing and the chickpea is so good! Bring back the spinach please!
