Kabul House offers a taste of appetizing Afghan dishes that have existed in the history of Afghanistan for thousands of years. Our restaurant emphasizes high quality Afghan food, as if prepared from the fingers of any Afghan mother. Our extensive full course menu includes lamb, seafood, beef & chicken dishes as well as vegetarian specialties that include pumpkin, eggplant, spinach & other fresh vegetable options. Our menu hosts a large variety of selections fit for anyone, from vegetarians to meat lovers alike. In most of our recipes, a limited amount of fresh spices & seasonings are used to season the dish in order to create a sensational taste that is not too overwhelming. This makes our Afghan cuisine very enjoyable for anyone & everyone. The atmosphere we provide for our patrons is one of which would be produced in our homes, relaxing, invitingly warm & unforgettable. We could go on & on claiming how exquisite our foods are, but we invite you to come & taste for yourself.

    This was my second time at Rooh and I went with a larger group. Just as fantastic as the first time, 2 years ago! We had a mix of dietary restrictions at our table (vegan, gluten free, shellfish allergy, etc) and they accommodated them all. Every dish is delicious, but the eggplant and cutlets were stand outs. Other people in the group liked the pork belly best. Service was great, very attentive. Ambiance was great, not too loud. Price is for sure worth it.

    We did the Chef’s counter experience and what an experience it was! Chef Rishi explained each dish with the same passion that he uses to create them. The mole that he has perfected over years is the best mole I’ve ever had, and I’ve eaten in Mexico. Can’t wait to go back and watch both Chef Zubair and Chef Rishi working their magic together!
