Afandi Grill is closing on 1st Avenue


[EVG photo from September 2018]

After nearly 13 months in business, Kamola Akhmedova, the owner of Afandi Grill at 149 First Ave., has announced the closure of her restaurant between Ninth Street and 10th Street.

Here's part of her farewell via Instagram:

[W]e would like to announce that we are closing our physical location permanently. No, Afandi is not going anywhere. We will continue as a #catering brand.

We enjoyed this period that we were in #eastvillage 💕 This neighborhood became our home.

Tomorrow (Oct. 24) is the last day. The restaurant opened in the late summer of 2018, serving creative cuisine via Central Asia.

You can check out the Afandi Grill website for catering info.

I really liked this place. Food was very good and the the Staff(family owned) was very friendly. They tried marketing; i found out via Yelp Cash back. I think Central Asian Cuisine gets lost in the mix compared to let's say Western Chinese food, which actually has similar items.
