Dinner was perfect with someone very special.Got beef, chicken and eggplant - everything had a distinct flavour, soft and tender with every bite. Indoor decor was nicely laid out, unique and ethnic.On our way out, our server and the chef shared their own story as we shared ours. We felt we were part of their history! Their personalized service explained why this place was packed at the time we were here.Outstanding food, exceptional service; will definitely come back when in the area.

We wanted to enjoy the famed Afghani food of Fremont and were recommended this place by a local. Our family incl. 2 teenage boys, enjoyed it thoroughly. Food was tasty and hot, portions were generous, and prices were reasonable. The service was very prompt ( although it was not busy when we were there). Would recommend highly the appetizers of potato bolani and mantoo. The vegetarian pumpkin dish was also very good as were all the kabobs.I donât know much about Afghani food but we did note that we have been to other Afghani restaurants with a different variety of choices. Maybe this reflects regional differences? Just an observation, not a criticism.Of note is that this restaurant is halal and serves no alcohol. It also has plenty of vegetarian offerings. It is a pretty little place with colorful tapestries on the walls and tables and has a large area where you can sit on the floor and dine.Highly recommend if you are looking for an âethnicâ food experience, not California nouveau cuisine. Would go back without a doubt if I lived closer.

I am big fan of Afghan food, and the places I have been to on the East Coast do not compare to Salang Pass. Not only were the staff hospitable and extremely attentive, the food was amazing! The lamb was cooked to perfection, and I wish I could have the rice every day! We tried several different dishes, and each one surpassed the other. I can't wait to visit Cali again, just to eat here!

Went for dinner after receiving a card for lunch in the mail. Bags of lamb were incredible. Free salad was a meal itself. Great value.
