Our Story
Over 30 Years of Authentic Afghan Flavor and Family
A Legacy Rooted in Tradition
De Afghanan Cuisine began over 30 years ago in Fremont, California, when Aziz Omar and his family opened the first Afghan restaurant in the area. Since then, we’ve expanded across the Bay Area and Central Valley, becoming a cherished part of many families’ lives. Our journey is one of preserving rich Afghan culture and passing down authentic, halal recipes from generation to generation. We honor our roots with every dish and every location we open, proudly serving food.
Crafting Flavors That Inspire
At De Afghanan, our food is a true reflection of Afghan heritage. We use only the freshest vegetables and marinate our meats overnight to bring out deep, authentic flavors. Our award-winning dishes have earned recognition not just for taste but for quality and tradition. Every plate is prepared with care, inviting you to savor the bold spices and comforting tastes that make our cuisine unforgettable.
