who we are


KISHMISH is Dubai's first gourmet Afghan street and soul food restaurant. A tale of three patriotic Afghan women with a shared love for food, nostalgia for home, and a mutual dream: to share the riches and comforts of Afghan food.

KISHMISH the Dari term for raisin; a partially dried grape. An integral ingredient of Afghan cusine. You will find it sprinkled on our rice, embedded in our pastries, and subtly flavouring our yoghurts


Our Mission


is to revive the identity of Afghanistan by taking people on a journey through the homes and streets of our country through the flavors, comforts and aromas of our food.

Kishmish strives to provide a relaxing, enjoyable dining experience in a friendly, family oriented atmosphere. Serving great food, great people with a greater purpose.
