I migliori ristoranti di cucina afgana a Old Town Alexandria

Aracosia never disappoints with great food and service! Another wonderful dining experience.

After hearing such positive feedback about Afghan Bistro I decided to try it . I made a reservation to ensure I would get seating for3 people . I found the atmosphere to be quite pleasing , quiet , peaceful & understated . It is in an area where there is a heavy industrial vibe , do not let that deterr you from going inside , once inside , you`ll find this location is not a big space . Personally , I like a smaller, less noisy , envirnoment when dining out , so I can carry on a conversation without screaming across the table . The food server greeted us when we arrived ,then escorted us to our seats . He was very hospitiable & very knowledgeable about the selections on the menu . He asked if we had any special requests or if we needed any special care in food prep ( gluten or lactose allergies , if anyone was vegan or vegetarian etc ) . He made some suggestions on the menu that proved to be beneficial.. The food came out quickly after ordering it and it was delicious . This is defintely not your typical Kabob place , the selections on the menu are much more unique , not only did it taste amazing ,the presentation was beautiful . The portions are enough to share if one wanted to , but we opted for separate entrees so we could take have the leftovers . Overall I was impressed with the quality , the service, the prices were reasonable and the " vibe " of the place was great ...you can even get a glass of wine or a cocktail if desired . Great little place ! this location is 1 of 4 locations , I`d like to try them all it was so good .

I've been there many times. Truly varied, sophisticated, and nuanced Afghan cuisine--well beyond just the kabobs that dominate many other Afghan restaurant menus. Good service, reasonable prices considering the quality of the food, and tables well spaced and thus the noise level is rarely if ever a problem, unlike at so many other restaurants nowadays.

Had such a remarkable time. The food was delicious! The service was great. Wine was reasonably priced. I had such a great time!
