Kabul Restaurant
کابل ریسٹورنٹ
An established Afghan restaurant in the F-7 sector, famous for its Kabuli pulao and kebabs, and one of Islamabad's most recommended budget-friendly spots.
Located along College Road in the F-7 sector, this decades-old restaurant (with founding years cited as either 1983 or 1989) is a familiar Afghan dining spot for both locals and foreign travelers. The signature dishes are Kabuli pulao, Afghan kebabs, and mantu, all served in large portions ideal for sharing. According to the official menu, the pulao is around PKR 1,500, mantu is PKR 1,600, and a dozen Afghan kebabs is PKR 2,550. No reservation is required. There are other shops with similar names and a "New Kabul" nearby, so be sure to confirm the name when visiting. Some reviews mention it is cash-only, while others complain about price increases and smaller pulao portions. It gets very crowded during dinner hours.
