Afghan Phoenix was founded by Reza and Mohammad, a team with deep Afghan roots who spent years in Malaysia before starting a new chapter in New Zealand. Just two years into their life here, the owners took a bold step - opening a restaurant that brings together the flavours of home and the hope of new beginnings.

The name Afghan Phoenix reflects that journey. Like the phoenix, it stands for resilience, renewal, and rising into something greater. That spirit lives in every dish served - rich with tradition, shaped by experience, and shared with pride. Guided by the belief that food can connect cultures, Afghan Phoenix is a place where tradition meets taste and where a new story is just beginning.
