“ The food was delicious I recommend bolani and mantu by far the best on the menu for appetizers. ”

“ Delicious Afghani food with yummy kebabs and aromatic rice, I definitely cannot wait to come back and try everything else on the menu. This is a good substitute to Persian food or anything Middle Eastern that you're craving. ”

“ I really like this spot for a more casual Afghan dining experience. While I think the kebabs and main entrees are tasty, they remind me of halal cart like food and didn't have the subtlety of afghan meat seasoning. They had a very tasty mantoo though and it was vegetarian friendly which is tough to find with such a meat-heavy food culture. Theirs used squash instead of meat and was slightly sweet from the squash which contrasted nicely with the tangy yogurt. Would definitely go back and try more dishes! ”

“ Was doing a pickup around the corner and after the truck was loaded, decided to get some lunch... had never been to much of Long Island and had no idea there was such a big south Asian population! There was a ton of options but o chose Kandahar grill. Never had afghan food so I figured I'd give it a try. Was pleasantly surprised... the kofta was spiced perfectly and chicken was equally delicious! Definitely making this place a regular stop when I'm in the area! ”

“ For dinner with the family I'm going to give this place four stars easily service was good. We got seated. Immediately. Tables were clean so we're the dishes and things we had two appetizers. One was some dumplings with yogurt sauce on top and the other was a pancake of fried pancake with a potato filling they were both excellent & came out quickly And then I had the chicken & beef kofta which came with rice and salad. It was delicious, nicely seasoned and tender. There were 3 side sauces on the table. Servings were more than we could eat so we got the box and took some home. Wait staff was good asked if we wanted sauces to go with our boxes. Definitely going to go back. Seating is comfortable place is clean. You can eat in or take out from the Kandahar Grill you won't miss if you go her ”

The rice was fragrant and melted in your mouth. absolutely recommend and will be back! ”

“ Came here for date night for an early dinner. When we came in around 6p, there was plenty of seating, but within 30 minutes of sitting, the place was packed for dinner. The takeout counter was constantly busy with orders and we quickly found out why! This mom-n-pop Afghani restaurant in Hicksville, seasons and grills their meats to perfection. The bf and I were starving so we ordered the Mixed Kabab Platter which comes with 1 Chicken tikka, 1 Lamb tikka, 1 Chicken Kofta, 1 Beef Kofta and 2 lamb chops over a massive plate of rice. It was plenty for the two of us and even had some left over to go. The servers were very attentive and respectful. So happy we randomly stumbled upon this super local spot while we were running errands out in Long Island. I hope to bring my family here next time! ”

“ This place caught my attention while watching a couple feature this restaurant on a YouTube short.(DevourpowerTV) The owner Hash is such an Awesome gentleman, he was very patient in explaining all the differences and nuances between the kababs. We had a delightful culinary afghan experience that offered a rich tapestry of spices, flavors and textures. One standout dish is the mantoo dumplings, filled with seasoned chicken meat and topped with a savory garlic white yogurt and a tomato-based sauce with chick peas. We ordered the chicken and beef kofta platters and the 3 chapli platter. The food has a mix of savory and mild spices making it a perfect dish for all palate types. Hash said If you want it spicy they definitely can light your taste buds on fire. They have a private lot so parking is not an issue. There is no server to take your order. Just place your order at the counter and find a table, they will bring it over. When you're finished, clean up after yourself and throw out your trash in the designated area. NOTE: There is a 20% service charge added to your bill when dining in with a party of 3 or more people. It's posted on the front cover of the menu. I know times are tough, but a little steep when there really is not a server taking care of you as we know it. It's definitely worth the hype and the price. I'm looking forward to return real soon. ”
