Tasty food , nice atmosphere, plenty parking!!! And fresh food. A friend of mine recommended me this place, why not to explore? What I ordered for a lunch was little pricey, but they have good prices ...
I recommend this place... see you soon ! -

I ordered the Afghan style gyro with rice and choice of veggies. While $12.95 may seem like a lot for a sit down place with food on styrofoam plates, for me it's a lot of food .. enough for 2 meals.
The gyro was a bit salty but very moist and tasty. My favorite were the side veggies- the spinach is slightly tangy and delicious, the lentils were cooked perfectly and the cauliflower dish was perfect with spices and tangy tomato sauce. The fresh homemade Afghan bread goes so well with the sauces and meat.
They also offer hookah but we didn't try that.
Lastly they are open 7 days a week from 11am - 3am! -

**Updated: things here have changed...I got delivery from here last night for the first time in a while and it's not as good as it used to be. The wonderful heaping portions have been reduced, which is a shame, but the gyro meat does not seem to be of the same quality it once was. I got a platter with an extra side of gyro meat for $5 and the side was exactly two slices. Not as good of a value or quality as it once was.

Still love this place. They don't always deliver to my door now, but I use the trip down to get it to also take my recycling out, when I have to. Anyway, tonight I got the Meat Lover's Express, for the first time. Lamb curry, chicken curry, and gyro meat. And it was delicious! A lot of food for $13. I ordered using their AKH app (recommended instead of grub hub) and it has a few bugs, but got the job done. I keep coming back to AKH! -

Overall: Got takeout here one saturday night, and like most good kabob places, they fire grill the meat and it takes a while to make (25 min). The takeout orders were crazy on this night and the restaurant was churning out orders non stop.
Service:
This is one if those places who has food that's so good and respected they dont seem to care about being super nice. I walked in and stood at the register for five minutes before I was even acknowledged. After taking my order, I was left standing there for another 20-25 minutes watching them pump out orders before I got mine. It would be nice if they acknowledge physical customers rather than being heads down trying to get orders out the door.
Food: Food is great as you would expect. I got the boneless dark chicken, with spinach rice, salad, and cauliflower. Everything was great! The bread they make stays moist for a while and has a great layered texture.
All in all, excellent food, subpar service and wait. -

If you're eating late night and want a laid back spot this is a great option. Plenty of choices on the menu but went with the Sam's choice. The rice was good. The chicken was my favorite part of the meal. It came out super juicy and seasoned very well. The salad was average but the nan was nice, warm and crispy.
