Khaybar Restaurant - Auburn

The older brother (owner) was very polite and helpful. Told us about how to eat the food, their family, and their point of difference for the restaurant (quality not quantity)

We really liked our experience in this restaurant. Tasty food better than our expectations and lovely spacious place to sit. I specially liked the badenjan(eggplant) which comes with fresh bread.

My wife and I stumbled upon this place, ravenously looking for food options after a night at the movies. Walked in, sat down, asked for vegetarian options and were presented with the Buranee Badenjan, a dish containing sauteed eggplant, sliced tomatoes and olive oil. It was, simply put, amazing. On top of that it was served Afghan bread that was so big it could be used as a mattress!!! Simply amazing food, and great customer service. Will be coming back very very soon!!!

We made the trip out to Auburn to visit a friend who welcomed a new addition to her family. A feline addition, that is! When we started getting hungry, we began looking for a place to go for lunch. We came across Khaybar after reading a few great reviews including a mention in Good Food. Their article mentioned that Khaybar was not the place for vegetarians. We thought “challenge accepted”.

First time having Afghani cuisine, we decided to ask the owner for advice. Tried their Mantu, Bulanee Badenjan for entree and Qaboli Pallaw Lamb for main. Last but not least have their Sherpera for dessert. <br/ <br/ Their Bulanee Badenjan is by far the best eggplant dish we have ever had and is the highlight of our meal today. The Pallaw is also very nice especially the lamb which is guaranteed to melt in your mouth. Mantu is also nice. Sherpera is a so fresh you can imagine having it near the farm where the milk icane from.
