NAAN KABOB

Excellent Experience at Naan Kabob I had a wonderful experience at Naan Kabob. The food was delicious, fresh, and full of flavor, and the service and atmosphere were top-tier. The restaurant was clean, welcoming, and very comfortable. Ms. Aida took exceptional care of us. She had great communication, answered all of our questions with a smile, and made sure we felt welcomed and well taken care of throughout our visit. Her positive attitude truly made the experience even better. Highly recommend this location for great food and outstanding customer service. I’ll definitely be coming back!

I was served by Aida and Aladdin tonight and they were so nice! Thank you for making my dining experience so enjoyable! Love the atmosphere of this place, I felt so welcomed from the moment I walked in. The food was wonderful! Particularly the grilled eggplant side dish and the Firni desserts. I think I might just order the eggplant next time and eat an entire bowl of rice with it. It’s so good. For main I got the Sultani plate. The rice was very fragrant and the Shami kabob was so delicious!!!! The sirloin skewer was very flavourful but a little too well done for my own taste. Such a nice restaurant! I must bring my parents here one day!

Great place for delicious kebabs. They offer both Afghan and Persian style options, along with a mix of Indian flavors. Their mixed plates, like the Waiziri or meat lover dishes, are the best because you can sample a bit of everything. The chicken kebab was flavorful but a bit dry. Their kebab burger is nice as well, though not particularly special. The kebabs are definitely their standout dishes. The staff were great and very accommodating. Highly recommended for late night snack.

The restaurant has a beautiful, warm decor that creates a welcoming atmosphere. However, the service feels a bit lacking because you order and pay at the counter, and few short moments later someone will bring the food at your table and thats the end of it. No one came to check on us in case we needed anything else. That said, the food itself was delicious with generous portion sizes, and the prices were very reasonable. Overall, I’d go back if I’m in the area again.

Came to Naan Kabob during my lunch break with my husband and we had an absolutely amazing time! Matthew greeted us and was a wonderful server! We ordered the red pepper hummus and NK grill to share and it was enough for both of us! Will definitely coming back soon!

The food is delicious. My waiter Matthew was great was Farzani. This was my second time ever having dined at an Afghan restaurant and will definitely return. I highly recommend this place. It’s very conveniently located.

We had dinner at Naan and Kabob in Toronto and had a great meal. The restaurant is clean and spacious— there is a lot of seating options available. You order at the front counter, but they will bring the food to your table. The service is still good though! Table service would have made this place feel more like a formal restaurant. Our server, Kamel, was very sweet and attentive. Kamel checked in on us often and made sure we were well taken care of. This really made our dinner more enjoyable. Thank you, Kamel! The food was authentic, flavorful, and overall delicious. We tried the Eggplant Borani, mantu, doogh (bottled not freshly prepared though), Chicken Qurma Plate, and the NK Mix—everything was perfectly cooked and well-seasoned. We highly recommend this restaurant for quality Afghani food and warm service!

I've come to this location half a dozen times now and it has never failed to impress me. The food is incredible. The portions are huge and everything is perfectly seasoned. Im in love with their garlic sauce. You definitely will not be disappointed when you come. It is a fast casual restaurant but the food is sit down quality.

Stopped by after a long time to pick up Chicken Koftas with naan and rice. As always, tasty food. However, prices have gone up. Service is friendly. Plenty of seating space.

Just had their food delivered and there was a simple error in the order. Without any hesitation, they corrected the order and redelivered. Their food was simply wonderful and fresh. Great food and customer service.

Have dined at the restaurant a couple of times. Place is well done , bright and clean. Staff are friendly and professional helping with choices if needed. Got take out on this occasion and the food did not disappoint- chicken Kofta kebab dinners were delicious, well portioned and prepared right along with chicken Korma dinner !

We stopped in on a Saturday during our visit with a party of 12. We ordered the NK Mix and two Kabob Lover platters to share. Unfortunately, the top floor (tea room) was closed, so they joined tables on the first floor to seat us. I wish we had been seated upstairs, as it's much nicer. We had to place our order at the register, and the cashier added a tip before handing me the tablet for payment. I'm not sure why a tip was added since we had to get up to ask for water, plates, and to pack our leftovers. Despite this, the food was amazing and worth the visit.

I rarely walk away from restaurants thinking anything else than "nice! really happy I tried that" ... I don't know what it is. The kabob was kind of dry, as was the naan, and the rice with raisins wasn't bad but I quickly tired of it. (You definitely get value for money - portion sizes are very generous.) The decor was very cozy and upscale (but then this clashed a bit with the branded yogurt bottles that suggested a chain).

A wonderful place of kind people who made me feel so welcome to Toronto in the brief interaction we exchanged while I picked up my food.. I enjoyed every bite of my order bolanee, mantu, and baklava. Thank you

My husband and I stopped by here for late dinner (~8:30pm) on a Sunday day evening, and we were impressed by the ambience, food, and service! This was our first time trying Afghan food. The menu has plenty of pictures, which was very helpful in determining what to order. We started with a bolanee (flat bread stuffed with seasoned potatoes), followed by chicken qurma plate, chicken wrap, doogh drink, and a firni dessert. All of the food was fresh and healthy. We underestimated how full we would be and asked for our dessert to-go. Our server was accommodating, and brought us plastic utensils for our dessert. Overall, this was a great experience, and we would recommend this place to anyone who would like to try Afghan food!

Great place for families and getting together with friends! We got their Ramadan special and it came in a HUGE portion! About 4 servings of each item, on top of a heaping amount of rice. Service is kinda meh, and water was dirty. Tea house seating upstairs was intimate and quiet, perfect for conversing!

Came in for a late lunch in July. They do not have AC. They had 3 small fans trying to cool the place down. The service was great. The food was great. It was not possible to get over how hot it was inside the restaurant.

Casual service restaurant. You order from the counter and then they serve the food at your table. Service as quick. I had the garlic naan and the lamb shank with rice. Bring your appetite because it's a huge amount of food. The lamb was tender and the rice was fluffy, naan was really garlicky, just the way I like it. Highly recommend.

It's hard traveling / dining out with a 1 year old, so we ordered take-out while staying at a nearby hotel. Large portions and reasonable pricing. Ordered a Tandoori chicken kabob and also a combination with beef kabob. Both were excellent with a very generous portion of rice. The take out portion of the salad was a bit on the small size, but fresh and delicious. I also ordered the FIrni dessert, which had the perfect consistency (not too soft, not too hard) and also had the right amount of sweetness (not too much). Would order from here again!

Located in a prime area, you can't miss it. The restaurant interior draws you in. We arrived for a late lunch. Inside the walls feature cultural art. It was at that time I noticed it said the Afghan Tea Room on 2nd floor. So you bet, I walked up those stairs to discover a whole area which was a lot more relaxed, lounge style seating. We decided to dine upstairs. The menu features everything from lamb, beef and chicken (whether in the form of a qorma, sandwich or platter. Decided to try Mantu (beef dumplings) & Waziri (chicken and shami kabob) platter. The Mantu was delicious, oozing with flavour! The chicken tandoori was probably the best tandoori I tried, it was grilled to perfection. The shami kabob was average. The kabuli rice was flavourful & the naan was fresh. It's accompanied with garlic sauce and hot sauce. The portion size was decent, we shared the plate and Mantu and had left overs. Wanted to finish the dinner by enjoying a cup of tea. The picture of the tea from the menu was a bit deceiving, I thought I'd be getting tea served in those small cups , possibly steeped. Instead, it was tea bag in a mug. They ran out of sugar, so provided icing sugar instead. Tea was my least favourite, it tasted a little off (the water itself or the tea bag) I definitely recommend the food, the tea not so much. The staff was friendly, the young server kept checking in on us and did his best to answer all our questions.

I am glad we came across this restaurant. It's not a traditional restaurant where you sit down and someone comes and takes your order. You actually order at the counter and then take a seat. The food was delicious! Beware... come with an appetite because the portions are huge!!! We had so much food left over. I was impressed by the art on their wall - absolutely stunning.

Authentic taste I ordered chapli kabab , lamb shank and wazeeri kabob. The host were cool and friendly. Music was ok and lightning was also ok. Interior ambience was average, although i expect a little more traditional. Taste, i can tell is very great. If you are a meat lover and like kabobs, its a great place. Overall i would like to rate it as 7/10

Great interior clean and relaxed. Nice menu with pictures. Amazing food. Wonderful service.

The food is always spot on. I've never had issues. The service could honestly be better. Sometimes they expect you to carry the food up yourself which I understand it gets busy but damn. We aren't trained professionals. The place is usually busy. Especially during Ramadhan since people come to open their fasts here as well. The perk is that there is a place to pray. It's open so people will see but most people don't care. Just bring prayer clothes and a mat.

The service here was really good, I came with a big group and they were more than happy to accommodate us. The food here was good, the fries were amazing. Our server was Farzana and she had really welcoming energy and was super sweet to us! The restaurant was also very aesthetically pleasing!

We shared the chana masala and paneer plates and they were both delicious! If I were to pick a favourite, I'd pick the paneer. The chana masala came with this slightly sweet qualbi rice with raisins and carrots, salad and naan. The paneer came with some grilled zucchini, eggplant, rice, and also salad and naan. The naan was warm and fluffy and perfect to scoop the curry in. Overall, great portions, good pricing, spacious seating, and a great experience.

This is a hidden gem on Yonge St. When you first walk in it looks like a pretty standard fast food restaurant, but if you venture up the stairs you will find a beautiful second floor space. Recently one afternoon I spent a few hours here working and the ambience is lovely. Food is delicious and comes in large portions - this a great price. Service is more like a fast food restaurant, which is fine.

We eat light dinners, but decided to give this place a try after an all day outing. So we shared a plate called NK Grill. It comes with three skewers, one chicken, one tandoori chicken, and one shami kabob that's similar to Persian koobideh, rice, naan, and a bit of salad. It was absolutely delicious and more than enough for two light eaters. Looks like their lamb shank is the most popular item as we saw many people ordering them. The ambiance is very pleasant and lively. There's a large drawing of again horsemen and brick walls that gives the place a nice vibe. There's also a more traditional dining area upstairs, but no one was there, at we stayed downstairs with others. Service is very good and responsive. Highly recommend this place. Hope to go back soon.

Nan Kebab is one of the best places I've had food. The kebabs were flavorful, tender, and perfectly cooked, and the fresh, hot naan made the meal even better. The restaurant had a clean and calm atmosphere, and the staff were friendly and professional. Especially Suriya, our kind and attentive server, made our experience even more enjoyable. She took our order with a smile and made sure we were satisfied with everything.

Horrible experience. Arrived after a long drive, well within their advertised opening hours, to be told it was take away only. No mention of this on their website or apologies. Rude and unprofessional and a terrible first impression of Toronto. For regular travellers accurate online information is a lifesaver to avoid wasting precious time in new cities driving to false promise businesses. Unfortunately this business is indeed a false promise.

The food here was very good - the meat was certainly the standout. I got the chicken and it was incredible. My fiancée got the steak and he said it was amazing. But the stuff that came with the kabob platter was average. The ambiance here was cute as well. The service was friendly. You order at the front and everyone was nice. The only thing is that there was a lady in front of us that wanted a refund for something and she was getting very upset with the people upfront. They had more than one person up there and could have processed other customers but they did not. It ended up taking us 15 minutes just to order because of that. Additionally, our food did take a long time to arrive at our table. Lastly, the people next to us kept hearing this beeping noise and we were all wondering what it was. Turns out that at the bottom of their fries platter (under the plastic) was an Apple Watch of one of the cooks or something. And it was beeping because they initiated the find my feature.

This review is for takeout and a pleasant one at that. There is a dearth of decent take out options for this cuisine around this area. I have a go to spot which is a bit further down and I am not a fan of the quite popular spot in East York as they are bland IMO. This place offers good value for money and doesn't hold back the seasoning as well. I had the Waziri Classic with rice and it came with a salad and a naan (as per their name :) chicken was not overcooked which is a welcome change. Kebab was decent as well. The sauces on the side were decent. I think a solid 3.5 stars all said and done. I will re-order.

Service was a bit slow on a Sunday evening. Staff seemed short staffed and not too friendly. The food was just alright, nothing memorable. The fries were all short! All 3 side orders of them. The fry basket and plates were very presentable though. There were ample seats and chairs, accompanied with loud kiddos. The mango lasse was delicious! It would be a pass for me as nothing stood out but the prices were reasonable for a family of 4.

I think this is my new favourite place for middle eastern food. This is very comparable to Bamiyan Kabob which was the only great place I knew to eat at. We ordered ubereats and the flavour of the meals were very impactful and flavourful. I can imagine it tasting a notch better if it was fresh from dine in. All of the meats were very tender which we were surprised at especially the lamb because it was on the thinner side and charred a bit but all very moist and tender. My favourite is their beef kabob it's so flavourful.

I have to confess that we was planning going to other place but I was so glad that the other one was closed and we came here. Our appreciation for Place: it is very nice, we enjoyed the decoration, it looked very clean. It was a big place. 5 stars Food: We enjoyed the food, good portions and so tasty. 5 stars Customer service: The customer service was nice. 5 stars

Haven't been here for so long due to the pandemic so when I found myself downtown and in need of some lunch I jumped at the chance. The online ordering system is really simple and easy to navigate. You can set your pick-up window from ASAP (16-25 min) or further into the future if needed. My favourite from Naan and Kabob has always been there lamb shank dinner with the long grain rice mixed with sweetened carrots and sultana raisins. I'm was worried that they would no longer the side of their chicken qurma (Afghan style chicken curry) with the lamb shank dinner but it is still there to my surprize. The menu just doesn't explicity say so. :-) It's the best value for money dish in my opinion if you love a generous portion of bone-in lamb shank along with a mountain of brown rice with carrots and raisins. The chicken qurma is a really good at helping you clean up the rice. It is tomato-y, tangy, and got that little bit of heat throughout. This totally made my weekend and I got two meals out of it too!

Pretty impressed with freshness, quality and generous portions. Had the take out option, very nicely packaged

Ordered a meal for pick up last night, which took 10 short minutes to prepare. I got the lamb shank with a side of naan. The meat was falling off the bone tender. Absolutely delicious and perfectly spiced. The rice was delicious, cooked to perfection with firm carrots (not soggy, hate soggy carrots) and lots of sweet raisins. Their white sauce is so good and creamy (although not as garlic-y as I would've liked), and it's perfect to be missed with rice and/or serve as dipping for the naan. Their red salsa was sweet and spicy, also perfect to be mixed with the rice. My meal came with a chicken curry, which I didn't care for too much since it was too spicy for me. I Would recommend this place for anyone craving some yummy Afghan food. 5/5 would for sure go again and get the same thing. The people working at the place are also very nice and sweet, so customer service is superb as well!

The atmosphere of this place is great. The food is delicious and is packed with flavor. The portions are also pretty big so you really get what you pay for. The only thing that I disliked was that it took a while for the food to come out and there were a lot of flies swarming our food.

Service Great experience and did not wait too long for the food during the lunch time rush. Staff were friendly and helpful with explaining the items on the menu. You are given a buzzer to either pick up your food or they will bring it to you if you had a huge order. Food Loved the food! I tried the Beef lover's platter and the beef were all tender and flavourful. I loved the spice combo and the slightly smoky vegetables that came with the set. You get some fries too! I would recommend getting the mango lassi to end off your meal. It was very refreshing and not too sweet.

I am glad I came across this place when I was looking for something different to eat after I went to the Toronto Reference library. It was my first time to try Afghan food - I had chicken kofta - and it was juicy, flavourful and delicious! Generous portions too! The place is cozy and I love the decorations. I introduced this place to my bestie and she loves it too.

Walking around Yonge and Bloor area to find food for 10 people ain't an easy feat, especially when we have no reservations at all. After we walked around scouring for food, we arrived at Naan & Kabob. When we walked in, it has a "fast food" style service. Before we talk about the food, let's talk about the decor. On the ground floor, it does seem a bit "fast food" in setup. However, the 2nd floor has a more cultural setup: a tea room. I was quite amazed with that. They were also playing some decent music. Onto the food, so we place our orders and we were given a pager/buzzer. As we have 10 people, we decided to go with 2 platters. This came with rice and naan bread. After some time, our food came. While I was waiting for our food, I got 2 mango shakes for my girlfriend and I. THESE ARE SOOOOO GOOOOOD! Refreshing and fruity. It's thick enough that it is like a shake, but it is also smooth enough and remains runny enough. Anyhow, back to our food. The platter has lots of meat: tandorri chicken, beef kabobs, chicken kabobs and a burger patty look-a-like. The spice is present and brings different layers of flavours. I like it! The Afghan fried rice was very interesting too. They do use a variant of long grain rice. I got the one with raisin and sweetened carrot. I like it cause it brings different layers of flavour. However, my favourite part is the warm naan bread. yummmm! Overall experience is quite good. I had an open mind to the food so it was good. One comment I can make is service can be improved? But it is a Saturday evening in downtown Toronto. I can't fault them on that.

Ordered chef's special beef lover for takeout. The barg and the chaplee aren't very tasty as I thought, just some mixed minced meat, very hard and not fresh. However the shish skewer is really good, juicy enough. I also like the fries, crispy and excellent flavored. The serving size is large enough for two people to share. It's worth a try but I won't come back again. Also, dine in would be a better choice to ensure the quality of the meat.

Food is good and staff was very friendly and helpful. Restaurant is clean and decent choices especially if you are non vegetarian. Limited choices for vegetarian but paneer was cooked good.

I really don't know what rating I should give this place. If I was able to rank it 3.5 I probably would. The food was delicious. They give you a generous portion and most meals include bread and a dipping sauce. The prices are fair and reasonable. I also like their style of restaurant where you order from the counter like a fast food restaurant but you get the quality of food similar to a regular sit down restaurant. It's a no frill sit down restaurant. I do question the cleanliness of the restaurant. Their utensils and were sticky and even the sauce the came with the meal even though it was sealed the outside of it was sticky which is probably why I would rather give this place a 3.5. Overall, the food was good.

Very convenient and friendly staff and food was even better with the correct size of portions loved the meat lovers

This is the second Afghan restaurant I've been to in two weeks, not intentionally, just by happenstance. After looking over the menu, I was drawn to the Lamb Shank, same as the other place. This one, however, included a side of curry chicken. Nice! I ordered and picked up at the counter. There was no table service. It wasn't the prettiest plate of food but it tasted good. Even with carrots and tomatoes on the plate, everything was kinda monotone. Despite its dry appearance, the lamb was tender and moist, with good flavour. The curry chicken was not a type of curry I'm familiar with but it also tasted good, although I'm not sure I would have a whole plate of it as my meal. I prefer West Indian curry, Jamaican style to be precise. Overall, I was quite happy with the food. My office is not too far away so I'll be back.

I came here for lunch with some coworkers. The restaurant was busy although not crowded at the time. We placed our order, took our seat and waited for our notification device to light up. I opted for the lamb shank with qabili rice. The lamb was cooked perfect and fell off the bone! The rice was good although I've had better. Of course, when your in good company, good food only accentuates the experience. We had a great time here and if I'm in the area again, I would definitely come back. I knocked it down a couple of stars only because one of the orders seemed to have been forgotten and we had to ask when it might be ready since the rest of us were waiting. The other reason was, one of the people we were with was planning a company event there for the following week and had scheduled a meeting with the owner/manager. He didn't bother to show up which was disappointing. Thankfully one of the other staff members met with her to review the menu and her plans.

So good! I came here for a work lunch and they ordered huge platters for us (a group of 12). The chicken and beef skewer like strips of meat were very flavourful with their hot spices, and tender enough for my post-wisdom teeth extraction self to eat. The naan flatbread is handsdown the best ive had. Its like indian naan but more flavourful and fluffy. You can dip it in the yogurt mayo dip they have for extra flavour. Fried rice = every single grain is seasoned well. I could just eat this on its own. Mango smoothie = kinda like a mango lassi but smoother, the consistency is like liquid yogurt. Overall it was a feast, sadly i couldnt eat much due to my teeth condition but i will gladly come again when i have recovered!

Kinda obsessed. So so good. Got the NK Grill with Quabli toppings for $27 (ordered on their site to pick up). A good amount of food and seasoned really nicely. Definitely able to split this (at least for lunch!). Loved all the meats and the quabli & rice & sauces. Salad was pretty boring but not bad.

I recently had a friends and family gathering of 55 people and Naan and Kabob delivered food for the party. The food was excellent, adequate quantity, great taste as usual and the Manager from 18 William Kitchen Rd location was superb. She supported us with 5 star customer services from explaining the menu and choices available, delivering right on time and including extra cutleries and other items. The packaging of food while delivering was very neat so no spills and remained warm. Can't thank enough to the stuff of this location and particularly the Manager. Would recommend anyone to go for it without thinking twice and hope to visit the location again! Sincere thanks to Naan & Kabob and the Manage Harnour Kalsi! - Tariq Khan

I have had a much better experience dining here compared to the branch along Pharmacy Avenue in Scarborough. Serving size & value you get for the Grilled Meat and Grilled Kabob Plates was reasonable. This order option was a much better pick than going for the pricey and not worth it Chef's Special: Chopan & Barg @ $24.95. The only thing to note is that the food meals proportion of carbohydrates to protein was too inbalanced -- there was too much rice & bread compared to the meat. The vibe of the place is another thing I appreciate. There was enough attention to detail in picking out the pieces to go along in dining area, and the menu was very professionally laid out & printed.

I got their N&K Grill and Firni. I'm not a big fan of non-fried chicken, but it was actually really good and tender. I would prefer it if it had a bit more flavour, but it went well with the sauce and rice they served it with. Their Shish Kabob was also nice as well. I wasn't a big fan of their naan or why they served naan on top of a pretty filling and complete dish. And I didn't really like the naan that much either (probably a personal preference). I also brought a Persian friend and he later told me that him and his dad changed their go-to place for kabon/chicken plates since they used to leave downtown so satisfy their cravings. Their Firni was also pretty good. It was creamy and it wasn't too sweet (I hate it when places add too much sugar).

As we friends went here for lunch and the lady taking our orders was very polite and with patience told us what wasn't available. We ordered a bunch of things which I will share in the picture. Overall we really enjoyed eating here and every food item was worth ordering. I will highly recommend this place

Everything here tastes so good! I have been to other locations but this one is my favourite because it has a tea room upstairs. I love the chicken option and also really enjoyed the zaatar bread as an appetizer. Will be a regular for sure.

Quality meat platter, rice was bland. Good location at Yonge and bloor, busy at lunchtime, line moved slow when I went
