“Loved the food here! The staff was very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our chicken, lamb, and beef kabobs, along with the complimentary bread and sauces. Prices were very reasonable. It was our first time and glad we stopped in to try it.“

“We were in the area and l noticed Essy's Kabob. Knowing my better half likes Mediterranean type of food I suggested we try it for lunch. When we got there we were greated by a couple of the employees and asked if it was our first time there. We were then explained what the menu items were and told what was most popular. We both decided on the chicken kabob and found a table. A short while later we were brought some warm and tadty pita bread. A short time later our chicken kabob plates should up with basmati rice, hummus, and fresh grilled pepper and tomato. The chicken was very good, tendor with great flavor. The rice, hummus and vegetables were equally as good and tasted very fresh. All in all it was a good choice and good meal. Friendly, helpful staff and reasonably nice dinning area. Looked like they do a fair amount of catering as well. Definitely worth trying.“

“This was a big favorite of ours until it closed during covid and went out of business which we lamented greatly. The new owners have kept the name, most of the decor although we were told today a few changes in that are coming. The menu seems very similar to me and the lamb shank that I was so fond of was just as good. The two friends that went with me today had never been there and they both loved it and can't wait to go back. We all had the lamb shank and the eggplant appetiser.“
“We were looking for an authentic Persian restaurant in the area and Kolbeh did not disappoint! My husband and I brought our 2 little ones with us which always makes me nervous in a fine dining situation but the staff was so friendly with us and kept the little ones entertained with the delicious bread basket while we waited for our food. We got the Soltani and Fesenjan with Bogoli Polo as the rice upgrade and it was DELICIOUS! I barely got to try the Koobideh because my 4 year old and 18 month old devoured it! The Barg was so tender and flavorful and by far my favorite! The Fesenjan was perfect and was completely gone by the end of our dish. The portion sizes are generous and the price is well worth the quality and flavor of the food. We will definitely be back!“
“I've been eating Persian food from Famous Kabob since I was 13 years old. Over 32 years and I love my Joojeh Barg Basmati with Safron. Homemade Nan aka bread. This is Pele's Favorite Extra Sumac. The portions are quite generous my food is always fresh and hot. Chicken perfectly marinated seasoned and cooked tenderly. Not sure how people complain about prices. You can spend $20 on a nasty fast food meal or spend $25 and get delicious Persian Food that is enough for 2-3 meals. If I could I would eat Persian Food from Famous Kabob every day!!!“
“The food here is excellent! The people are super friendly. The restaurant is very clean. I was doing laundry next door at sunshine laundry and every 10 or 15 minutes or so thelaundromat would fill with a delicious aroma. So when my laundry was done I just had to go and hunt it down. I got there like 3 minutes before 11. And they were still open, kinda, the man was super friendly and welcomed me in. He didn't even mention that they closed at 11. I ordered the Chicken kebab, and he mentioned that there are a few sides that just come with it and some Rice so I got that and and he asked me casually if I was going to be there guest or take it to go which I found very sweet and inviting. So I was like sure I'll eat it here. So it didn't take long for my food to be ready maybe 10-15 minutes and wow this food is AMAZING. Everything was sooooo good. The white sauce is delicious I HAD to ask for extra. The chicken was sooooo good and they gave me a lot too. Rice so good. All of it! Everything got an A+ in my book. But what really got me was how nice they all were. The host told me what everything was and answered all my questions and even tho it was wayyyy past closing they never once rushed me or gave me the side eye. I've never had afghan food before but I definitely will go back. So so good. Oh my. So good. (Says with a mouth full of food)Go eat there. Hurry run!“
