Damavand Market is a little family-run shop and a hidden gem for authentic Afghan food. It is a magical place with super chill, easy parking and often has take-out orders, though dining in is available. The service is something out of this world, with very kind and friendly owners who provide amazing hospitality. On learning it is a customer's first time, they may generously gift a dessert, an extra dish, a plate of baklava, or a whole Afghan naan on the house. The food is tasty, authentic, and super good, with everything made with love. Highly recommended dishes include the beef dumplings (Mantoo/Mantu), the kabobs (like Chaplin Kabab, chicken, steak, and ground beef), Qabuli pulao, lamb shank with rice, Bolani (with potato, sweet potato, or squash), borani, and Afghan naan. The lamb is very tender and nicely cooked. Meals come with yogurt, a green chutney sauce, yogurt cucumber sauce, and an ensalata salad. The bolani is yummy and spiced to perfection, especially with the provided sauces. While some items may occasionally be out of stock, the prices are reasonable and the overall experience is excellent. This place is hands down the best Afghan place, a gem run by such kind people, and definitely deserves a return visit.
Hands down the best afghan place we've tried, and run by such kind people :-) Super chill, easy parking, and never a wait to get seated!

Only I can say WoW! Today I ordered and went to them for the first time the owner was so friendly and respectful, all the foods they serving is Halal and 100% Afghani taste. I recommended to taste once Qabuli palaw and Beef Kabab and the taste is totally different from where you tasted it before. 100% recommended.
