This is a nice place with strong customer focus. Felt really welcomed. Started with Stuffed Grape Leaves, OK, but not great. Had the medittaranean salad with grilled octopus.. Really good. We had one fish dish, Branzino - excellent. Three lamb dishes. Baby Okra, Hunkar Begendi and Bodrum Cokortmo. Large serving and each is very tasty. For desert we shared Baked Rice Pudding, Baklava and Molten Chocolate Souffle Cake. All three terrific. Turkish coffee was good and heavy. Parking is available.

Was there for Bonchon restaurant, but they were kinda rude as they said they gonna close the shop soon ( 9 PM) but it was only 8:40 PM. Anyway, Someone's loss is somebody else's gain. And what going on here? there is 9 restaurant lined up in the same complex. We were deciding where to go then saw this completely empty restaurant, Arachosia Grill. It was Afghani restaurant. Empty cause they opened just 2.5 weeks back.We ordered at the counter ( what’s with the order at the counter thing? If you are gonna serve us at the table then why you are not taking orders from there itself Or make us get our food at the counter too. Half of this, half of that ). Anyway, We ordered chicken curry ($9) and chicken seekh kabab ($10.5). Each entrée comes with Rice, Piece of bread, chutney, and salad. We got our food within 15 minutes ( pros of being alone in the restaurant :P ). I am not exaggerating, but seekh kabab- never had such delicious kabab in the USA so far. It brought me memories of my fav restaurant back in India ( Arsalan, Kolkata). Chicken curry was equally super tasty. Not sure why it was Afghani, cause we Indians also cook in the same way [ cause we are neighbors ?? ;) ]. Only thing is that after eating kabab, I was not sure how to eat rice and bread cause we are not used to eating rice and bread itself. The rice with the carrots, currants, and sumac was sweet and delicious. Food was sumptuous, no doubt about it. Prices are very reasonable. We will definitely come back here. There is kabab paradise in Lake Hiawatha and their menu is almost the same, and they are doing really good. But I guess Arachosia Grill is gonna compete them in this open market. Good luck to them.

The food here is absolutely delicious. I highly recommend the chicken schawarma sandwich, the healthy mess salad and the salmon avocado tartine! Amazing! The only issue is it's very small inside. Don't let that deter you!

Was with a group of 18 for a birthday celebration - food was good, prices are very fair, belly dancer was great and the service was professional. The restaurant is a little tough to find as it’s in a run down strip mall - but once inside it’s nothing but fun. I can definitely recommend this restaurant.
