As an Afghan, it pains me to write this but I had heard some good things and was incredibly disappointed. It took me 3 separate tries to have us get someone's attention to be seated, with the restaurant being largely empty. Then I had to go find someone to take our order and once they did, they didn't bring out water or drinks until the food was brought out. We ordered the chicken biryani and the beef kabob plate. The beef kabob plate was really sad. Such little qabuli and some very old lettuce with 2 slices of cucumber and a tomato slice, hardly even a salad. The kabob was tasty though. The biryani had large chunks of uncooked tomatoes mixed in and other things that didn't belong in a biryani. The only redeeming thing was the portion of the biryani. There was also an off-putting smell in the restaurant, like backed up plumbing. I was so disappointed as I love Afghan and Pakistani food so much. There are so many Afghan restaurants in Calgary that are much better fortunately. The young men who were serving us were doing their best, but we were ignored and found our own boxes and a bag to take the larger portion of biryani home. The prices are truly something else. Over $50 for these 2 dishes only. We won't be coming back. Meal type: Dinner Price per person: CA$20–30 Food: 2 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1

Visited Shinwari Karahi and the service was good but the food was not up to the mark. Kabuli pulao is the Afghan delicacy but how could they make their own dish taste so bad. It was very dry and bland. The chapli kababs are supposed to be soft and juicy but they were so hard and burnt when asked they said this is how its supposed to be Food: 2 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

The food and service are awesome. The waitress patiently took the order and served us. The head of the restaurant was a great and friendly guy. The food (Pishawri Chapli Kabab, Chicken Karahi, Afghani Naan, Doogh (Lassi - Yogurt Drink), and butter Naan) was spicy and delicious as expected. The dessert, Sher Yakh (Afghan ice cream), was as tasty as always. Not to forget, the prices are fair as well. Definitely recommended for people who want tasty food and desserts with Afghan-style hospitality. Meal type: Dinner Price per person: CA$40–50 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Vegetarian options: They have soup, and other veggie options.
