Taj kabob - Afghan Street Food
An Afghan street-food kitchen in the Christie Park plaza off Bow Trail, and the busier of the owner's two west-side rooms - the other is in Aspen. Charcoal-grilled chicken and lamb over rice, wrapped or on a plate, in a small dining room reviewers keep describing as spotless. What to order The chicken and lamb kabobs are what the room is built around, and the recurring word for both is juicy rather than merely hot. The house tomato sauce is a family recipe and gets named in reviews as often as the meat does. One warning worth heeding: the Shawnee ground beef kabob is genuinely spicy - order it for yourself, not for the table. Good to know Open until 9pm, seven days, from 11am on weekdays and 11:30am at weekends. Prices sit at the higher end for street food, which regulars mention and pay anyway. Built for families - good for children and for groups, with vegetarian options and its own parking. Uber Eats and SkipTheDishes both deliver it. Rated 4.7 from more than 400 Google reviews, one of the highest counts of any halal kitchen on the west side.
