Mirwais Shandaiz Restaurant
Not surprisingly this is the only restaurant in Kandahar to sport a spinning disco light; don’t let the waiters in matching grotty England soccer shirts put you off, as they serve great Afghan food all day. Offerings include kebab, pulao (rice dish), mutton karai (diced mutton fried with chilli, tomato and spices and served with bread), mantu (steamed meat dumplings) and beef kufta (meatballs with different sauces served with rice). The food is fresh, portions are generous and the local seasonal juices and milkshakes are delicious. To finish off, try the home-made ice cream followed by a cup of chai and a sheesha pipe on the elevated takht area.

Yasin BBQ Restaurant
By far the best Pashtun BBQ restaurant in town, the Yasin serves up tasty lamb kebab, beef shaslik and BBQ whole chicken in a twinkling, plus it will do meals on request. Cleanliness doesn’t seem to be too much of a priority, with the occasional cigarette butt kicking around on the greasy floors, but diners shouldn’t be overly concerned as the fare is fresh and comes straight off the scorching-hot charcoal grill.

Madina Restaurant
The recently opened Madina Restaurant serves the usual mix of Afghan staples and proudly displays its Western options of burgers and club sandwiches at the top of the menu. Their massive juice bar churns out concoctions of the fruit of the season.
