It is a wonderful experience dining here. We invariably go to Bamian every 4-6 weeks, and are never disappointed. We love the food, the service and the ambience.

The place is big and nice but was not busy at all. We are the 2nd guest at 8pm on Tuesday. Kabob and bread was great as they were made fresh. The Hummus had no taste. Baqlaba had old smell and tough to eat. Tried a small piece and then left on plate. Will not go back as there are many other options in the area for same food menu.

The food was excellent. We had the manta as an appetizer as well as mashawa soup. Both were delicious and just the right size for an appetizer/soup. Our main course was Copan Kebab which was three large succulent lamb chops and the mixed kebabs. Both were over the 15 limit for entrees but paying the difference was well worth it. Our only quibble was with the service which, considering we were the only customers in the restaurant during our meal, was lackadaisical. Our waiter spent the entire time chatting with a colleague out of our sight and we twice had to get up and get his attention since we were in a booth. He also indicated that the Groupon was for 70 dollars and we should tip on that amount plus the 11.45 surcharges. Actually the Groupon value was 60 dollars. A small thing but a bit annoying. We left a 15% tip when we would have left 20%.

About Bamian Restaurant
Bamian Restaurant gained the attention of The Washington Post in 2006 when its traditional Afghan cuisine drew in an Afghan ambassador and embassy staff from Kuwait and Qatar. Plates teem with housemade flatbread prepared in a tandoor oven and kebabs grilled over open flames, earning the restaurant a "very good to excellent" Zagat rating. Vegetarian items include the sautéed pumpkin with yogurt and mint and hummus dusted with paprika.
The interior of Bamian Restaurant is elegantly decorated with leopard-print chairs in the foyer and sparkling chandeliers in the dining room. Gayot describes the restaurant as "large-as-a-barn and gussied up like a deb ready for a coming-out party." The large space includes a full dance floor, which lends itself to hosting large parties, wedding receptions, and rehearsal lunches to practice for dinner.
