Ariana Afghan Kebab

Afghan restaurant · Midtown West

"Once, restaurants serving a menu of food from Afghanistan were common along Ninth Avenue in Hell’s Kitchen: Now Ariana is the only one that remains. Dating to 1986, it specializes in charcoal-grilled kebabs matched with rice pilaf, pumpkin-filled turnovers, eggplant curries, and fist-size steamed dumplings filled with meat or vegetables." - Robert Sietsema, Eater Staff
