Sami’s Kabab House offers a mouthwatering array of Afghan-inspired dishes, blending rich flavors and traditional cooking techniques. The menu is a true feast, whether you’re in the mood for a light appetizer or a hearty entrée.

Start your meal with one of their enticing appetizers like the Bolani Kachalu, a savory potato-filled pastry, or the beloved Mantu Dumplings—steamed pockets of dough packed with spiced beef and topped with a tangy yogurt sauce. For a unique twist, try the Aushak Dumplings, delicate pasta parcels filled with leeks and served with a fragrant meat sauce.

The salads offer a refreshing contrast to the rich kababs. Opt for the Afghan Salad, with its fresh mix of tomatoes, cucumbers, and herbs, or enjoy a Garden Salad, crisp and full of vibrant greens. Pair these with one of their comforting soups like the Lentil Soup, hearty and warming, or the aromatic Chicken Soup, perfect for a cozy start.

Moving to the star of the show—kababs. Each skewer is grilled to perfection, with options like the succulent Lamb Kabab or the tender Chicken Breast Kabab. The Beef Kofta Kabab and Lamb Chops are ideal for meat lovers, offering a smoky, flavorful bite in every piece.

Vegetarians are also well-catered for, with dishes like the Sabzi, a savory spinach dish, or Borani Banjan, a rich eggplant creation. The Mixed Vegetarian Entree is a great choice for those seeking variety in every bite.

For a complete meal, consider the Uzbeki Qabuli Pulao, a fragrant rice dish paired with tender meats, or the Sabzi Chalao, which combines seasoned rice with spinach. Don’t forget to complement your meal with a side of Sami’s Classic White Sauce—it’s the perfect dip for your kababs.

End your feast on a sweet note with Firnee, a creamy Afghan dessert, or Baklava, with its sticky, nutty layers of delight.
