Good food, good portion sizes, and friendly staff. Everything was a bit oily for my liking, even the salad greens and rice, but that’s just a personal preference. Would definitely come back!
We were 9 people once we visited Balkh restaurant, nearly each one of us has different meal from the other. Each meal is a recommendation on its one. The staff is very friendly and very generous. Very very recommend.
I was looking forward to try their Chapli kebab which was a disappointment in the end. They tasted more like Pakora. To be fair to the Manager he acknowledged, when we complained and took it off our bill. The best two things I enjoyed the most was Manto and Fatoush Salad.
The best Afghani food I’ve had in london at @balkhrestaurant in Kenton. The last time I had Afghan food this good was in Munich in 2019! I was mega hungry after cycling for 90 mins and doing 4 1/2 hours of climbing. In ordered the Qabli Palow (lamb shank with rice) and Mantu (Lamb Dumpling). Both were generous portions and absolutely delicious. I had Dough (yogurt based) to drink. Service was friendly and professional. They also gave me a little bit of home made ice cream on the house. Definitely be returning here again soon.
