Absolutely incredible food! The banquet, wow, a brilliant way to taste a range of dishes. Great service, not licenced but from other tables it looked like you can BYO. Not sure if there is a corkage fee. Astounding, will be back See less

I was part of a large group that had dinner at Parwana Afghan Kitchen and we opted for the feed me menu. This was a great option as we got to try pretty much everything on the menu. Generous serves and the food was delicious. Parwana is not licenced but their BYO corkage fees are really reasonable and I think they donate it to charity. See less

Really enjoyed my visit. The food was yummy and the service great. It's BYO and I love the corkage goes to charity. So many great vegetarian options. The aubergine dish is gorgeous! See less

Arrived at Parwana at 6.15pm for a table for 2. Seated and orders taken by 6.25pm. Menu looked great and we were keen to feast so asked the waiter if we could stagger the meals. He said “no problem” We ordered Pekowrah, Manu, Narenj Palaw, Banjaan Borani, Gosfaneh Degee, Jaan-e-ama and Torshi. We waited and waited. Then, at 7.15pm the dishes arrived. Not one or two as requested but the whole lot at once. So much that the Gosfaneh Degee was put on the table of the people beside us as there was no room on ours! We asked the waiter to send a few dishes back to the kitchen to keep warm. He said it was a small kitchen and there was no room. We tried to eat what we could as fast as possible before our dishes went cold. So much food wasted as we couldn’t really take any with us as we were visiting from interstate. The staff then completely avoided us. The table was not cleared (tables either side of us were) Guests around us were offered dessert. We were avoided like we had the plague. After getting the attention of the waitress we asked for the bill. Again, we waited and waited and after 15 minutes approached the counter (where the waitress was obviously annoyed we had) to settle our bill. We had agreed earlier with the waiter we would not be paying for the lamb dish which by the time we got to try it, it was cold and tough. This was an issue that the waitress had to return to the kitchen 3 times to resolve. The food at Parwana was really tasty, the portions were good but after agreeing to stagger courses and then serving 7 plates of food to a couple 50 minutes after ordering, I think we have good reason to be disappointed. The waiting staff, front of house and kitchen need to work together to prevent this sort of thing happening again (and too, treat your customers and their concerns with a little respect.) See less

We dined there on a Saturday night and ordered the banquet. The food was delicious. We also ordered the dessert and I was pleasantly surprised. Customer service was outstanding. Thankyou, Parwana, for a great night out. See less

Delicious Afghan cuisine!! Try their Eggplant and Karayee Morgh. Desserts are simply amazing. See less

I was excited to try the food here, it looks amazing and the reviews are great. Unfortunately they forgot to record my booking when I rang up the day before to make a reservation. I understand mistakes happen and I would still like to eventually try the food here. The thing that made this even more of a negative experience is the less than friendly attitude we received while waiting for them to figure out how they messed up our booking and seating table after table ahead of us without any kind of explanation or apology.

Lovely food. Eggplant dish was superb. Dumplings great. Lamb was bit tough and bland. Original and welcoming decor. Service was lacking- young and disinterested waiters. Did not know details of the dishes offered. Young man informed us coffee was not on menu due to Afghani religion! I dont think so 🙄 See less

In history of my visits to restaurants, this is the first restaurant where i cleaned all the plates. Never had such an awesome experience before. Don't forget a plate of eggplants. You will thank me later. See less

Amazing Afghan food, best in Adelaide by my standards. I love the eggplant, chicken and rice. Everything was just amazing!! Staff are lovely, feels like they’ve invited you over for dinner. Corkage fee for wine but free for byo beers, which is fantastic. Make sure to book well in advance because they’re often fully booked on weekends. See less

A long-standing Adelaide classic and staple among the Afghan cuisine community. Menu has remained the same for many years with people continually returning (and us in particular) for the dumplings, lamb and rice. We had the 6pm Sunday dinner time slot and within half an hour all tables had seatings so it would be wise to book ahead. There’s parking on Henley Beach Road and street parking on Northcote and Danby Street. See less

Great experience, amazing food, price and service. Flawless! We’ll back soon See less

A special place. It feels like you have been invited into the family home and you are a guest about to enjoy a meal filled with recipes passed from generation to generation. Try the dumplings (both fried and steamed), the eggplant, the chicken with its insanely good dipping sauce and the date dessert with chunky nut shard ice cream. Wow. It’s as good as all the chefs I have spoken have said it will be. (One watch out - they are not a fan of split bills) See less

We went there on Sunday and I really love the eggplant dish (sorry, forgot the menu name)! It was awesome. The place itself is really cute, but not too flashy. Somehow for me it almost felt like eating in an aunty’s or grandma’s home. See less

Many have raved about this establishment and the verdict: Excellent 👌 We were travelling in and we just couldnt miss this spot on our trip. The rice dish was great! We enjoyed the grilled lamb dish a lot. Portions are plenty big and value is excellent. Highly recommended! See less
