Diamond Kabab House sits along Eglinton Avenue East in Scarborough, offering a casual, approachable spot for anyone craving Afghan and broader halal fare. Though it’s still adapting the space of a former pizza parlour, the atmosphere carries a straightforward local vibe — unpretentious and welcoming, with a strong focus on the food rather than fancy decor. This makes it a convenient stop for families, office workers, and community members looking for hearty meals that feel homemade.

The menu highlights a mix of Afghan specialties alongside more familiar comfort foods like beef and fish burgers with fries, onion rings, and garlic bread, reflecting a blend of traditional and casual eatery styles. If you’re after pizza, the extra-large options with multiple toppings or combo deals with wings offer a crowd-pleasing choice. The shawarma dinner and kebab plates stand out as flavorful mainstays, with the kabobs especially noted for tender, juicy meat — appealing to those who appreciate rich, grilled flavors steeped in Afghan culinary tradition.

Lots of locals have used Diamond Kabab House for more than just individual meals. Catering services here come through with generous portions and a clear eye for presentation, ideal for gatherings eager for authentic Afghan dishes like Qabuli pulao, Qurma, Mantu, and Burani Banjan. The staff’s responsiveness and friendly manner help make ordering for events easy and reliable, and the overall feeling when eating in or taking out is one of genuine hospitality.

Best visited for lunch or dinner, Diamond Kabab House suits those who want a solid, filling meal without fuss. The ongoing renovation means the space is still evolving, but the sincerity of the food and the warm, approachable service remain steady draws. It’s particularly fitting for anyone in the Scarborough area who values authentic halal Afghan cooking served with no-frills sincerity, whether dining solo, with family, or organizing a catered event.

Diamond Kebab House is a gem in the making! They recently took over the old pizza parlour and are in the process of transforming it into a fantastic kebab spot. Even though renovations are still underway, they truly went above and beyond to serve us when we dropped by craving some good Afghan food. The beef and chicken kebabs were unbelievably tender and juicy, and the Kabuli pulao tasted so authentic—it felt like a true taste of Afghanistan. The service was quick, the food was fresh, and the overall experience was excellent. We were so impressed that we decided to use their catering services for a recent event. The portions were generous, the prices were very reasonable, and everything was just as delicious as our first visit. I can’t wait to see the place fully renovated—it’s already on its way to becoming my go-to spot for Afghan food!

We requested catering for 15 people and were blown away by the generous portions—we received so much extra food! Everything tasted homemade, full of flavor, and clearly prepared with care. The thoughtful details in both presentation and taste truly made the experience special.

I ordered their catering menu today, it was all amazing. They are very responsive and my order was ready on time. What we liked the most was their Qurma, Mantu, Burani Banjan, Qabuli and the Ferni. They are accommodating with the menu. Their portions were really good and the true representative of the Afghan hospitality culture. If you keep the same service, quality and quantity, I am sure you will win the market. Some other places I tried before, after they become a bit popular they get more greedy, increase the price and cheap out on the portions. They don’t care about the service thinking losing a few clients wont make a difference. Once again good job, and we enjoyed every bite of your amazing food. Keep up the great work.

The owner is very sweet! They take care of their customers as their own. The food quality was fresh and delicious, especially the kebabs, super juicy and moisture. The portion size is huge! Definitely a place I’d recommend to eat. 5 star rating deserved!
