Bamyian Afghan Restaurant and other New York City, NY Restaurant Reviews

Restaurant Name: Bamyian Afghan Restaurant

Bamyian Afghan Restaurant is one of the places i prefer eating in nyc. this is an amazing place where you can forget for a while you're in nyc. choose the area of the restaurant where you have to take you shoes out and eat in this central asia look alike tables close to the floor just relazing in it pillows. just great. the food is just an amazing blend of central asia and afghan food.

Favorite Dish: i already tasted many of their vegetarian dishes. i usually ask for one entry, one salad and a first meal dish, dessert and dont forget to ask for the strawbery airan or local yogurt drink.
