Khyber Pass is like our second home apart from college. We come here about 6/ out of the 7 days a week to smoke hookah. Sometimes we even get there before they open. The service is great except for the blonde girl (the one whose eyes are like awkward, her hair is always pulled back and is platinum blonde)whose dating one of the guys she's kinda mean only because she messed once and we called her out on it. but what ever thats not the point. Her boyfriend is nice though and the owner loves us LITERALLY. MOVING ON.
Now to explain why we put 0.0 as the food rating... we've never eaten there we go there for the sole purpose of smoking hookah. Ps: nobody can have our booth its the one on the left side..well actually both of them they're reserved. Now rating the hookah its UHmazing you can mix flavors put them in fruits and its just awesome. It takes about 4 to 6 pulls to start feeling the hookah. But then again there are some people who can't handle it and cough their lungs out. you know who you are. The hookah is cheap too 15 bucks a hookah. as for drinks we usually drink poland spring but they're coffee (cappucino) is really good too. The environment its comfortable and relaxing. if you get lucky some one might just whip it out under the table. (true story) Just don't sit outside if you're gonna smoke cuz there are people who keep asking if your hookah is weed and it clearly isn't. The music is awesome we often dance to it.. and hookah just generally liquifies your brain. Show up and have fun. HOOKAHHH

Little medallions of filet mignon on a bed of rice? A glass of beer? Some good buddies? What I wouldn't do to live next door, and eat this food constantly.

I went to Khyber Pass for a casual dinner. I love Afghani food, but this was not good Afghani food. Other than the kebabs, nothing was good. The soup was so bland, that we didn't even touch it & the waitress decided to give us house salad instead because she saw we were disgusted by the soup (plus, there's only one choice of soup). We tried two appetizers, and the lamb which came in a gravy which was unbelievably gross. The only good thing to eat was the baklava, and the chicken kebab. I think if I went again, I would only try the kebabs- stay clear of everything else unless you like bland food.
Pros: Hookah while eating, no wait
Cons: Terrible food, ok service

I've been to Khyber Pass several times. It is inexpensive, it has great decorations and good ambiance. The food has been great most of the times, and some times a little bland. I went once for Valentine's day and their Valentine's special was really good. The service could use a little improvement but over all this is a place I will keep going back to.
Pros: ambiance, prices, food
Cons: service inconsistent

Maybe my expectations had been raised too high from reading some other glowing reviews but although the food wasn't bad it wasn't entirely memorable either and the waitress was clearly somewhat new to the job and not attentive at all. We started with some vegetable and lamb somosas which were OK but the oil tasted a little stale. Mains were well proportioned and the kebab's were nice but again no taste distinction, everything was fairly bland and I used a lot of the sauces on the table to lend some extra flavour. Pop in if you're passing by but not worth a special trip.
Pros: Kebabs
Cons: Bland

Based on other reviewers here, I was looking forward to dining at Khyber Pass, so last weekend I went there for lunch. I was sadly disappointed. The service was inattentive, but at least the waitress was pleasant. As far as the food goes, the appetizer was delicious, but the main entree itself was clearly microwaved leftovers. Anyway, despite that, it had no flavor and was quite bland. I make better eggplant at home than I had at this place. The decor was decent enough, and the large tables in the front looked really nice to dine at.
Pros: inexpensive, quick and easy seating
Cons: inattentive service, bland food

I loved the food. I ordered sambosa and qorma lamb and eggplant. My partner had lambchops kebab and everyhting we ordered tatsted great. The decor was pleasing, the ceiling was gorgeous with the tapestries, the walls filled with paintings and cultural antiques.
But the service SUCKED! Unfortunately, we were late comers of 1am of a saturday night, but as we entered, there were still about 2 tables filled and we were told that they were still serving food. The waitresses could be overheard louder than the MiddleEastern music-- talking about the customers, laughing and dreading the fact that we may also order dessert after the meal and gossiping about their daily lives with each other. They can also be overheard hollering loudly at their cell phones! I found this rude. To top it off, they forgot our drinks! My partner and I were left drinking tap water, and the mistake was not tended to, until the check was ready to be processed! My experience would have been enjoyful if only a restaurant like this, which offered great food, great ambiance, may also be able to offer great professional service-- Just a suggestion... Please hire waitstaff who are courteous and considerate of the customer's needs!
PROS: Food, Decor, Romantic setting
CONS: Rude Saturday Night Waitresses

I have been there twice. The second time service was a bit slower, and less attentive (supposedly an Afghan celeb was getting all the attention at the table in back of me). But it has a nice, romantic, and afghan ambient to it.
I have also been to Bamiyan afterwards, and found the setting there to be a little bit more exotic and romantic, but however, perferred the food and porportion-price deal at Khyber pass.
Pros: inexpensive, nice decorations
