The Specialty
Afghan kabobs and rice dishes
# Bamiyan Kabob
Bamiyan used to be really good — it was a go-to for Afghan food at one point. But it's fallen off significantly. The consistency just isn't there anymore and it's hard to recommend it when there are better options available.
## What to Order
If you do go, stick to the kabobs and rice — the core Afghan items are your safest bet.
## Must Try
The mantu or kabob platter if you're set on going — those are the most likely to hit.
## The Verdict
It's there if you're in the area and nothing else is available. But the drop in quality and consistency means I'd look elsewhere first. Afghan food can be really great in this city — Bamiyan just isn't showing that right now.
