“ Been wanting to try this restaurant for awhile and finally got the chance today. I always see lots of patrons and the waft of the barbecued meats is very tantalizing. Both hubby and I ordered the combo plates and the beef and chicken were both tender and well seasoned. It came with rice, naan, and salad. Everything was really good and the service was excellent. The outside dining area by the waters is so nice and enjoyable. ”

“ This is probably only the second Afghan restaurant I have eaten. We were warmly greeted and asked if we wanted to eat inside or outside. If it's a nice day, definitely eat outside. It was dreary so we ate inside. We ordered the Sampler Kabob and the Lamb Chops to share. The lamb chops were hit and miss. Some pieces were excellent, some were bony, some were fatty. But it was very flavorful. For the sampler, my family loved the Chicken Kabob. I liked it, but not as much. The Teka Beef Kabob was really good. But my favorite was the patty-like Chaplee Kabob. Each of our meals was served with rice, salad, and bread. The rice was good, the salad was great. The only disappointing aspect of the meal was the bread. It was room temperature and nothing special. They call it naan, but it's not like the Indian naan served hot and a little crispy. ”

“ Located by the pond of ducks and geese at Blackhawk Plaza is the most unexpected of eateries. 786 Kabob House offers a small menu of Afghani kabobs in a cafe setting with traditional red cushioned seating. We started with the Borani Kadu, a soft, sweet braised pumpkin wedge drizzled with yogurt and topped with dry mint. But the highlight item was the Sampler Kabob Plate, which came with chicken kabob, teka beef (tri-tip) kabob, and chaplee kabob (minced sirloin with chilies), along with seasoned brown basmati rice, naan (crusty Afghani flatbread), and Afghan salata (cucumbers, tomatoes, onion). Each of the kabobs was juicy and flavorful, but my favorite was definitely the chaplee kabob, which had a crispy texture on the outside and a spicy flavor throughout! Overall, the food at this restaurant was decent and rather unexpected for its location. The portion sizes were generous for the prices, though the service left something to be desired. ”

“ I watched a IG video that featured this place, so it was immediately bookmarked. I didn't realize that it was in a small outdoor mall area. My best friend and I decided to sit down outside to enjoy the weather and also the pond. We ordered the potato bolani to start and both got the sampler kabob plate. It took a little while for the food to get to our table, but once it did we were pleasantly surprised at how good everything was. The potato bolani was crispy on the outside with flavorful potato inside. The yogurt sauce along with the green hot sauce complimented the bolani very well. The sampler kabob platter allowed both of us to try differently prepared meats. It was all so delicious. I had enough leftover to have more the next day. Visit 786 Kabob House...like today! You won't regret it. ”

“ My partner and I decided to try this restaurant after seeing he saw it on social media. Outside dining was a little more popular compared to sitting inside- this restaurant was beautifully decorated outside, with lovely traditional Afghan pillows. I found the food to be delicious and well-seasoned. My partner who is Afghan, wasn't too fond with the kababs as he found them a little dry and salty- he was also disappointed that our appetizer came in last- after we had finished our entrees. The service could've been a little better knowing they weren't too busy that day. ”

“ This is my first Afghan meal with amazing ambiance. What a treat finding this gem. The food is delicious and you're right in the heart of Blackhawk plaza. You are literally on the pond with ducks just a few feet beyond your table. For the single people, this is a great date spot. You can choose between indoor, outdoor on a table, outdoor on a half table with low benches or straight floor seating. I took a few selfies but unfortunately I didn't get my wife's permission to use them. Here's a quick rundown of the food. I rate the food around a 4.5 star. The beef teka is dry for my liking, but I was pleasantly surprised at how flavorful their chicken kababs tasted. I usually don't care for chicken but they were one of the last bites I had (I save the best for last). The Chapli has a good amount of spice and a nice light crisp. I believe there is some cumin in there. Also, it almost doesn't feel like you're eating meat because although it looks like a smash burger patty, it tastes nothing like it in a good way.l of course. Although I wish the cucumber salad had a little more seasoning, it's a nice garnish to the bountiful aromatic basmati style rice. It's brown in color and has some light spices that I can't make out. Even though it looks a lot on your plate, you can easily finish it. They also include bread on each plate but I never figured out what to do with it. I dip it in the spicy green sauce, but I'm not a fan of Afghan bread. I would come back here to try their appetizers. For entree, I suggest you get the sampler if it's your first time. I love the ambiance so much that even if I'm not hungry, I'd come just for appetizers and tea. ”

“ Great views, flavorful chicken kabobs and very authentic tea. Really enjoyed our dine in here ”

“ I recently dined at 786 Kabob House and had an excellent experience! The food was absolutely fantastic, with each dish bursting with flavor. The highlight of the meal was definitely the steak--it was incredibly juicy and cooked to perfection. The restaurant's atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the staff was attentive and friendly. I highly recommend 786 Kabob House for anyone looking for delicious food and a great dining experience. I'll definitely be returning soon! ”

“ Stopped here after visiting the neighboring museum. It looked like a fun Mediterranean restaurant to try. The kebabs were super flavorful! The chicken was some of the most tender I've had. Server was friendly and efficient. Nice outdoor area to lounge and listen to the waterfalls & fountains. Highly recommend! ”

“ Finally gave this place a second go and did not disappoint! Also in my last review, the bread was hard and tough to eat. This time it was soft, so yay! Improvement! The meat is still well seasoned and flavorful. I got the combo while my fiancé got the sampler. Tried a bit of the Chaplee and while it does have spice to it, it's mild and not as spicy as other places like De Afghanan which works well for me! On top of it, Shor Nakhed is hard to find and they still have it and it's still delicious! So giving them the full five stars cause this place deserves it. Coming back again when I can!! ”
