A diamond on Kilburn Road! Never had Afghani cuisine, so I was curious. Portions are huge - my lamb kofta was cooked perfectly, and the rice was soft, flagrant, and could have the rice by itself haha! Service was very friendly and we had a nice chat. It was busy when we were there, and there's cool artwork around to see. Recommended!

The place is a hidden gem in Kilburn high street. Quality, homemade flavour food. Servers were extra helpful to give us a good recommendation when unsure. Plates are massive, so would suggest asking first if it is too much. Great Kabuli pilau and amazing hummus. Would recorecommend!

Had to write a review being I am a regular customer and always get consistent good and friendly customer service! The staff love my baby and he is fond of them too, so it is a child friendly and accommodating restaurant with an authentic Afghan feel regarding the decor and music . My regular orders is either the mix grill or lamb shank, so tasty and delicious with a homemade touch. For those who have never eaten Afghan food, would highly recommend!!

Ariana II is an absolute must-visit ! The food was incredible — every single dish we tried was packed with flavour and cooked to perfection. The service was just as exceptional, with Hamid & Samira going above and beyond to make our experience even more special. A standout for us was Samira’s grandma’s Chakni, which is truly unforgettable ! (a little tip: you can even buy a bottle to take home ) Can’t wait to come back here again <3

This is an amazing place to dine in. My friend brought me to this place and the waiter and waitress couldn’t be more welcoming and friendly. We had a set menu for two. The food was amazing, and as a Chinese I won’t say that easily. If you are from Xinjiang and miss some 薄皮包子 or 手抓饭, their Mantu and Pilaw are great substitutes. The price was reasonable, portion was large, and the service was exceptional. Definitely coming back for more meat feast.

All in all, a very successful visit to the restaurant. My father and I were there for dinner and were immediately greeted in a very friendly manner by Hamid. When we were seated he showed us the menu and gave us a recommendation. We were able to share the two dishes and were completely full afterwards. The leg of lamb and the lamb skewer were great. Furthermore, it has to be said that Mira's friendly and very open nature created a very nice atmosphere. The restaurant later became very crowded as many came to break their fast. We felt very comfortable.

Hoy probé algo nuevo y no me decepcionó. El Cordero Karahi estaba lleno de sabor y tenía la cantidad correcta de calor. La carne estaba blanda y acababa de disolverse en mi boca. Esto fue acompañado por un poco de ajo nan recién salido del tandoor y ensalada. La comida es muy buena, el ambiente es agradable con buena decoración. El personal es educado.
