The 2012 review, as printed

“Ample” portions of “authentic”, “out-of-the-ordinary” fare – from “piping hot” bread, “right from the oven”, to homemade desserts – turn up at this “attractive” Afghani BYO “hidden” in a Warren shopping center; “attentive”, “accommodating” service completes the overall “wonderful” picture.

Ratings, cost and review are from the 2012 survey, scored by diners on Zagat’s 30-point scale.
