Zarafshan

Visited Zarfshan Restaurant on Wilmslow Road and really enjoyed the experience. The food was delicious, freshly prepared, and full of authentic Pakistani flavors. Their grilled items and biryani were especially tasty. The restaurant is fully halal, which is great peace of mind for families looking for quality halal dining. The staff were friendly, the service was prompt, and the environment was clean and comfortable. A great spot for a casual meal with family or friends—definitely worth visiting!

My wife and I recently visited Zarafshan Restaurant on Wilmslow Road in Rusholme, and it was a truly wonderful experience. It was our first time trying Afghan cuisine, and we couldn’t have picked a better place to do so. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our visit, which really made us feel at home. We started with the Zarafshan special salad, which was fresh and full of flavour. For mains, my wife had the aubergine with kofta, while I went for the mixed grill – which included one shish kebab, one chicken shish, and one liver shish. Honestly, it’s hard to describe how delicious it all was – every bite was full of flavour and perfectly cooked. We also had a special yoghurt drink alongside our meal, which complemented the dishes very nicely. Not only was the food fantastic, but the prices were also very reasonable. We had a great time and will definitely be coming back again. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to try authentic Afghan food in a lovely setting! Let me know if you'd like a shorter or more casual version too! Follow more of my reviews and activities on Instagram: @h_bermani

This is my second time visiting this place. Honestly, the food never disappointed me. We decided to sit inside because the indoor seating looked really cosy. We didn’t have to wait for seating nor for the food we ordered. This time we decided to try their mix grill for two because it was only three of us. But when the food arrived, trust me it was plenty for three of us. It was cooked to perfection and we really enjoyed it. Would love it even more if they add Chapali kebabs to their menu as well with Afghan rice. Definitely will be visiting again 👍. The service was amazing too. I don’t know the names of the two girls but they looked after us really well.
