Shish Kebab House

Food was fresh. A bit on the expensive side but then you have to pay for the ambience and that fact that it is in West Hartford. Serving size was decent

I've been to the place quite often it is GREAT. Let's get the first thing out of the way. The reason they can have a beautiful, well kept restaurant with the cleanest bathrooms and beautiful carpets is because they cater to their local customers: by serving alcohol. It is NOT a negative. Our halal places will remain crappy if we don't offer non muslims some options as well. That being out of the way, the food is AMAZING. It's just like the afghani restaurants i used to visit in Islamabad (where I'm from), and Jalalabad (where i've visited in the 80's). NOTHING is bad. The best thing to order? Order the PAKORAY for the appetizer. It comes with a hand made chutney that i last ate at a afghani man's roadside stand in Islamabad. I love it. It's a beautiful place where one can take friends family and acquaintances. It's a bit higher priced then other, but the presentation, experience and the place itself makes up for it.

Visited the restaurent last week.Nice decor and good service.The waiter said except for beef sausage everything is halal.Mainly they serve more fillers like rice then the main item.i ordered the fish with sauce and my husband had lamb chops which was very much limited for the price they charge.No boards stating that they serve halal meat.Serving alcohal is very dissapointing.Mostly targeted for non muslim locals.I wont be visiting this place again.I am rating this one poor becaz its not 100% halal.

No deliveries but take-outs. Serves alcoholic beverages. Verbal assurance that food was halal. Otherwise, authentic Afghani menue. I recommend the Shami kabab dinner with egg plant with either brown or spinach rice.

This is Afghan Resturant and serves halal meat. See <a href="http://www.enjoyhartford.com/enjoyhartford3/finditem.cfm?itemid=3229">this review</a>.
