    My husband took me there for a birthday lunch today. Though they were very busy, the service was excellent and the food outstanding. I'm a vegetarian and especially loved the vegetarian flight lunch. Great bread, wonderful veggies, and delicious spicy chickpeas.

    Wow! What a great experience we had at Afghania. We ordered the sampler menu which is, of course, a little bit of everything. They actually stacked a sort of shelf on our table to accommodate all the food! FYI the menu states that the sampler is for a minimum of 2 people, but despite our gigantic appetites, my son and I weren't able to finish all the food. I wish we could have taken the leftovers home, but we were staying at a hotel so that wasn't possible. Anyway, the food was great (and remember, we tasted everything), the service was outstanding -- the guys made sure we were happy with everything, and it was nice to know that our food was based on their mom's recipes. What's better than that? By the way, they do serve alcohol. I wish I lived in DC so I could take advantage of Afghania all the time. Don't miss!
