Quick info
About Aria Golden Grill
Aria Golden Grill is an Afghan restaurant in London, run as a street-food stall from a tent on Leather Lane. The tent sits in a row of food carts, so a meal here is an outdoor stop rather than a sit-down booking. The menu centres on qabeli palaw with lamb, served in large portions that suit a hungry lunch crowd. Qabeli chicken rice gives a second choice built on the same rice dish. The stall opens Monday to Friday, daytime only, and closes on Saturdays and Sundays.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often return for the Qabeli palaw, the rice dish served with lamb or chicken. One regular orders the lamb version every time, while another describes the chicken as well cooked and soft with great spices. A third calls it the best kabuli palaw in London. Close behind is the value, with portions that one reviewer says stretch to two meals from a single packed bowl. Staff are repeatedly described as friendly, and one reviewer notes they look after portion sizes. Service is called quick at the food cart on Leather Lane, and several name it the best on the street, with one saying they have tried most places there. The only limitation raised is that it is takeout only, since one reviewer explains it operates from a tent in a row of food carts. Several reviewers say they highly recommend it, and one keeps coming back for that same lamb palaw.
