Dallas’ beloved Afghan Grill is closing down. Matt Pikar reached the decision a few days ago. The lease will be up in a few months but he has decided to close down earlier to focus his attention on Nora Restaurant & Bar.

He expressed his gratitude for local support at Afghan Grill during the past 6 years.

Beginning this Friday, September 12, Nora Restaurant will be open for lunch and dinner Tuesday through Sunday. Lunch will be served from 11 AM – 2:30 PM and dinner from 5 PM – 10 PM. The restaurant will continue to offer happy hour from 5 – 7 PM on the rooftop, front patio, and main bar.
