Afghan Awasana Kabob House – Halal in Fremont

Ok literally please give this place your business. Will ruin all other bolanis for you but it's worth it I will never be the same lol. The owners are so unbelievably nice and hardworking and they will almost definitely hook you up with an equally amazing appetizer or dessert on the house. LONG LIVE AFGHAN AWASANA KABOB HOUSE!!!!! <3 <3 <3 pictured: the borani banjan (stewed eggplant with yogurt sauce) that one of the owners gave me to snack on while I was waiting for my order :'O

Wow this is our new favorite for afgan food. First time here, and loving it. Tried the quibili pallao, chicken and lamb kebab, and pumpkin bolani. The bolani was especially good - better than most we had before. The chicken and lamb were nicely seasoned and very juicy. The pallao was perfect - not as oily as some other restaurants. The place is small and not that many tables, and you have to order first at the kitchen, but service was good. Also there was barely any parking, and street parking limited, so during busy times might need to search a bit.

Lamb & Rice 4 large drumstick, tender, slightly dry, flavorful Bread 3 large amount, plain, soft

Food/Taste/Flavor: 5/5 - ordered Mantoo (5 piece), Chapli Kabob, Chicken Kabob, and Beef Kabob. While they were out of Bakhlava, we were able to try some Firini. The mantoo was interesting as it's a dumpling covered with a yogu sauce and ground beef seasoning. So while it has a savory aspect, it's also extremely creamy. Both the chicken and beef kabob were tender and well marinated. We enjoyed the seasoning and spices in the chapli as well. The rice were flavored well and loved the salads. The firini is an Afghan milk pudding that is absolutely creamy with cardamom and rose water. While we enjoyed it, it's definitely a particular flavor. Service: 5/5 - very friendly and attentive. Mom and pop store vibe with how welcoming they were. Ambiance: 5/5 - while it's a small store with limited seating, it felt very cozy like walking into an Aunty's house and asked to sit and eat. Value for price: 5/5 - delicious food, friendly service, and cozy atmosphere. Highly recommended place and we can completely understand why!
