Best places: Afghani restaurants in Metro Vancouver Regional District

A menu featuring traditional Afghan cuisine in a modern setting with bold interior colors & details.

👍👍 I’ve had the pleasure of visiting Zarak twice now, once for Happy Hour and once for Brunch, and I’ve gotta say this is one of my favourite spots in the city. The restaurant itself is gorgeous; there’s attention to detail in every aspect. You feel fancy as soon as you walk in! You’d expect that a r...

👍 A pick up order. Careful packaging; they even sealed any holes of the plastic bag, good. The chicken/lamb kebabs taste good (with real solid meat), the breads soft and easy to bite (which is nice) even after about 15 min drive home. The "sides" are raw sliced onion, cucumber and olive. Was hopin...

👍👍 Was driving around and just happened to drive by this spot. It’s located in the back parking lot. I decided to give it a try. Ordered the Jujeh, waited about 10 mins. Chicken was fresh off the grill, moist and tasteful. Portion and price was good. Will definitely be back!!

Diverse Eastern menu ranging from Afghan to Tibetan flavours in eatery with warm, rustic interior.

👍👍 I had the kebab Platter here. It is enough for 3-4 people. They started us out with an appetizer, bread and humus, and then the kebab Platter, flavored rice with raisins (I am sure you can ask them not to put it on) and varied types of kebabs. The leg of lamb was buried under a mountain of this deli...

Lively Afghani eatery with platters for sharing & vegetarian options plus belly dancers some nights.

Low-key Afghan eatery focusing on a large menu of classic dishes & vegetarian options.

👍👍 LOVED my meal here. I had the special platter which had chicken and beef mixed with rice (has raisins in it) and salad and sauces. It was one of the most delicious dinners I have had in a while. Great big portion and a reasonable price. My husband had the Lamb Shank and he loved it. My daughter...

👍👍 We drove all the way from Vancouver to try this place and was it definitely worth it! This is honestly the best tasting Afghan food and I have been to them all. You can tell the food is made with care and love. The place was modern and traditional. The atmosphere was very welcoming. The restaurant...

👍👍 Fully Halal. No alcohol served. Delicious food. I tried their Ramadhan special buffet of which I am adding the pics - some pics are a bit off, as it was Iftar time and of course the food was being eaten. Their Naans were so fresh, soft and tasty and Kabobs were simply second to none. Biryani was ful...

Casual venue with available floor seating & hanging tapestries serving halal Afghan cuisine.

😠 Sorry.......not great. We ordered the butter chicken and naan. The butter chicken had the consistency of tomato soup and frankly the flavour to match. Way to runny. I will say the actual chicken in the dish was nice, not too dry, but they hardly give you any. The naan was a bit on the chewy side. We...
