Afghan Kitchen South Surrey

What a fabulous experience eating at Afghan Kitchen! The food was amazing, the service was warm and personal, especially their knowledge of Gluten Free options for those of use with a food allergy. They were very particular to point out where cross-contamination might occur and were exceptional at recommending safe dishes! But the coup de grace was eating in their traditional room, where you have to leave your shoes outside! Such a cool vibe! A really wonderful time for my wife and I as we celebrated Mother's Day. The kebabs are so beautifully spiced, and the Afghan rice is a MUST HAVE! Add to that the tasty spinach side dish (which was a GF substitute, but I don't care if I missed out on the potatoes and eggplant!!), and this was an exceptional meal. We hope to bring our friends next time to help them experience this gem! NOTE... you are wise to make reservations, although we had a 15 minute wait... not bad at all!

Been here a few times with no reactions. Servers are very understanding about what has gluten in it. The potatoes are cross-contaminated, which is too bad cause they were very good for the non celiac. It gets very busy at night time. Will make gluten free food in a separate pan.

Super helpful about which items could be cross contaminated, I ordered the beef kebab with the sabzi instead of potato (for cross contamination reasons) - was excellent! Also, large portions, which is always appreciated. I ordered takeout but the inside looked really nice as well.

Zabi at the Afghan Kitchen was incredibly helpful with helping me choose gf options and explained which items may be cross contaminated and which would be safe. Felt great after and will absolutely come back.

Our server was very knowledgable about the menu and the many gluten-free options. We ordered the KBL to YVR platter and the beef kebab meal. Everything was delicious with ample portions and lots of leftovers. Great cocktail menu, too, with many unique drinks!

Amazing family run Afghan food. Excellent quality and service. Love the beef kebabs and both types of rice. Majority of menu gluten free. Never had a reaction after a dozen or more times eating there.
