If you have ever been to KAIA PAX Terminal for military flights then you know the famous King James. Don't expect your food quickly but that is the Afghanistan way. It has always been hot and good and the coffee is great. You have to ask for the WiFi password.

The restaurant is quite with a friendly staff. The pizza come the closest the home. It has a regular crust and sauce. The topping for fresh and the cheese is cook just right. The best pizza I have had in Kabul. I really enjoy the pizza here and I would recommend it.

All in all, the food's not bad, it just get's pretty repetitive after months and months of eating at the same place. The price is right but I would try out any new cafes that decided to open.
