Lots of menu choices made this a successful dining experience for the adults and children in our party. Our youngest dined happily on a variety of appetizers. Our spice-wary pre-teen loved the pumpkin dish. Aashak and kebabs were very good. Afghan iced tea is not to be missed. We also enjoyed the doogh a yogurt drink that is served either sweet or salty (we tried both). Afghan ice cream and pudding (flavored with rosewater) were both big hits. Affordable and tasty dining in a pricy part of town. Attentive service.

Since we discovered Ariana by accident a few years ago (couldn't get into Kabul without a reservation and just walked down the street) we have visited many times. We love to take friends there. Informal, byo, friendly, helpful service. They will explain any dish, although the menu does a good job of that. We have never been disappointed there.

Have been there for lunch and dinner numerous times over many years. Consistently good food, hospitable service, and welcoming atmosphere. One of the few restaurants where you can actually talk to and hear your dining companions.

Great dumplings (aashak) and great kebabs in a nicely decorated restaurant. Very friendly crowd for an "Old City" restaurant.
