I've been coming here for the last 6 years and I keep coming back for a reason. Its one of my favorite restaurants in the bay area and it makes the entire family happy. I usually get one of their signature dishes, the kabuli pulao. This restaurant makes it the best out of any other place I've tried. It's authentic, fresh, and reliably delicious every single time. Not to mention kitchen turnaround is quick. I don't think I've ever waited more than 25 minutes, even for a large order. The owner is also a terrific person who intentionally keeps his prices low for customers even when the price of meat and ingredients have gone significantly up. This is one of the first restaurants I recommend to friends and family when we're looking to eat out. They have a lot of menu options and they're all really good. One of the reviews on here mentioned the food was 'cold' and 'horrible'; I've ordered countless of times over the years and its always been consistently top quality. They always give large portions as well that I can never manage to finish on my own. You can't go wrong with coming here. It has the added charm of being a unique hole in the wall that's very relaxed and an overall nice place to spend an afternoon.

Pizza is excellent Lot of veggie's and great amount of Halal meat Enjoy every bite of it Lot of other signature dishes I have tried couple of them They have great taste Strongly recommend.

It's a really good food and excellent services. I love it. it's delicious. I am not from Afghanistan but sure I'll come back many times.

Very good Bolani and kababs. Hidden gem that needs more love. The owner is very kind and takes good care of the customers.

Absolutely a hidden gem! The chef is super friendly and accommodating. The food.... Delicious!!! The chicken is moist... the rice fluffy!

Very good food and service. I had the combo kabob plate with chicken chapli kabob and it was really good. Definitely going to be coming back.

4.5 STARS Like your legs thiccc and chonky? Medina got you! On my hunt for outdoor seating, I came across Medina Kebob House on yelp, an under the radar Afghan restaurant. Not going to lie, I was kinda iffy because of the mixed reviews. But, if you skim through, most of the negative ones are for the buffet which is no longer offered. Welp, you're never going to know unless you try it yourself and I'm glad I did! Medina Kebab House is open for takeout, delivery (3rd party apps), indoor dining, and dog-friendly outdoor dining. Yelp hours are wrong; they open at 11:30 am, not 11 am. But, the owner (one man show) was kind enough to take our order when we arrived at 11:20 am. M E N U Bolani (stuffed flatbread), Quabili Pallow (Afghan rice w/ lamb shank), Kebabs, Stews, etc. Meats are halal. Buffet is no longer offered. F O O D * Chapli Kabab Platter: Minced Beef Patties w/ basmati rice, salad ($15.49): https://bit.ly/3Hc7cS5 The chapli kebabs were delicious - crispy seared crust and well-spiced meat. The tomato in the middle helped the patties retain some moisture. The white basmati had perfectly separated grains with a bite to it. The sumac dusted salad (chopped romaine, tomatoes, and red onions) provided some freshness. I wish there was Afghan cilantro chutney for punchy heat. The accompanying yogurt sauce (too watery) and hot sauce (not spicy) were underwhelming. * Qabili Palau: Afghan Rice w/ lamb shank, carrots, raisins, salad ($20.79): https://bit.ly/3p5H2dD ***National dish of Afghanistan The thiccc and chonky braised lamb shank was so meaty and fork tender: https://bit.ly/3JLBkW7. The brown basmati rice was flavorful from soaking up the broth. The carrots and raisins added sweetness. All that missing was the golden almonds for crunch. Generous portions; had enough leftovers for another meal. S E R V I C E Warm, friendly, and gracious owner. Fast casual set-up but he made sure our table had shade by coming out to roll up the umbrella. We were the only ones there and our order took about 15 minutes. A M B I A N C E Hole-in-the-wall in a dated micro strip plaza. Handful of tables indoors and four tables in the front patio. P A R K I N G Street parking on a one way residential area. Overall, solid Afghan meal that's easy on the wallet with generous portions. If you're looking to satisfy your carniwhore cravings, give Medina Kebab House a try!

Medina kabob market on bellomy st, is our go to place for halal pizza. Their pricing and sizing is unbelievable and such a great deal. We always get pizza from here without thinking twice. We used to get their veggie pizza Untill they came out with their spicy chicken veggie pizza and upgraded to that flavor. Their wings are great too to go along with pizza as well. We got our start on cooking homemade pizza from this place since it was so good and when we dont feel like making pizza at home we would get pizza from here (except on tuesdays when they r closed). I have had their buffet once too in the day a long time ago and have no complains. For other side items , their burgers are not that good though, i would not recommend burgers from here. Their bolani is good as well which is good, but we do not get as often since we get their pizza and wings more often Regardless, pizza id recommend medina kabob market over via mia any day.
