The Bellissimo food truck recently opened a restaurant at 2217 Steier Lane in Buechel (the old Dasha Barbour’s location, near Jasmin Bakery). The menu is mostly Italian — spaghetti and meatballs, chicken piccata, ravioli, etc. — but the restaurant also serves Afghan food on weekends (with a few items available on weekdays). I visited this week and tried the jujeh (chicken) kebab, which was good; I want to get some of the Italian food when I return. I was the only customer at 1 p.m. Wednesday; I hope business picks up as they get some word-of-mouth.
LEO had a story earlier this month about the family that owns Bellissimo:

There’s more information on the restaurant’s Facebook page, and if you Google Bellissimo you can see photos of both the regular and Afghan menus:
