“If there's one place that holds a special spot in my heart (and stomach), it's The Kebab Shop. This gem of a spot has not only been a go-to for delicious lunches at work but also a staple for family meals, weaving its way into our daily lives with its irresistible mixed Lamb and Beef wraps.The secret to their wraps, you ask? It's unequivocally the garlic and dill sauces. These condiments aren't just add-ons; they are the soul of The Kebab Shop experience, elevating every bite into a harmonious blend of flavors that keeps you coming back for more. It's this attention to detail and quality that sets them apart from any other kebab place I've visited.But what truly makes The Kebab Shop shine is its people. The staff here is always awesome and friendly, making each visit feel like a warm welcome home. Their smiles are as consistent as the quality of their food, and in a world that's often too busy, these moments of genuine kindness are a treasure.The loyalty program deserves a shoutout too. It's incredibly rewarding, making each delicious meal a step towards another. This thoughtful touch adds to the many reasons I love frequenting The Kebab Shop.During the challenging times of COVID, The Kebab Shop emerged as a savior with their generous family-size meals. They not only provided comfort through their food but also a sense of support to the community, making it clear that they were more than just a restaurant; they were part of our extended family.All in all, I love this place with all my heart. The Kebab Shop isn't just a restaurant to me; it's a haven of delicious food, warm smiles, and a testament to the power of community support during tough times. Whether for a quick lunch at work or a family dinner, The Kebab Shop delivers not just fantastic meals but also a dose of happiness.For anyone who hasn't had the pleasure, do yourself a favor and visit The Kebab Shop. Whether you're there for the mixed Lamb and Beef wraps, the standout sauces, or the friendly faces, you're in for a treat. It's more than just food; it's an experience — one that I'm grateful to have so close to home.“

“In the urban heartbeat of the city lies a culinary treasure, The Kabob Shop. Since my discovery in 2019, it's been a gastronomic pilgrimage to the flavors of the Mediterranean and Far East. Their shawarma wraps, a personal indulgence, transport one to ancient bazaars with every bite.The Kabob Shop's artistry is unmistakable, from the vibrant tomatoes to the rich hummus, each bite a testament to authenticity. Their menu also celebrates the vegan wanderer, with offerings steeped in tradition.Their beverage fountain tells tales of distant lands, with craft sodas and iced teas reminiscent of exotic adventures. Seeking more than just a meal? The Kabob Shop is a journey, a taste of history and culture on a plate.“

A few choices only available for dinner price($32.99). We ordered Skinny Dipping Cow; Karubi In Tokyo; Tried N True(Bulgogi, Tasty); Daa Pae Pork Belly; Surfin Shrimp(each order has 4 pieces); Winnie The Poohs Sn; Eight Firing Arms(spicy octopus, each order has 2 pieces). We enjoyed Bulgogi, shrimp and octopus more than others. Service was good and responsive.“

My order polo koobideh wrap was just okay (a bit much fattening dressing) but I am not an expert in Persian cuisine. The unusual draw back to our first time here was the overwhelming fume from the Simple Green cleaning solution. We drove off for few blocks but still FELT the smell was with us. I wish an alternative cleaning liquid will be used.“

“I ordered lunch (delivery) and was blown away with the flavor and variety in my chicken shawarma bowl! I appreciated the variety of toppings offered and selected almost all of them! My only comment is I expect shawarma to have a bit of a crisp on it, instead this was very moist and flavorful (and felt a bit healthier, not as greasy as other places). The meal was well balanced and very flavorful, and the textures were great! I had been once before in person: very clean and the owners are lovely.“

“5/5 service, 4/5 food, 4.5/5 value It was my first time here and the new female employee (I didn't catch her name) was really helpful and friendly with explaining the different sauces and options. I got the doner kebab rice plate with chicken/beef and garlic sauce and "warm butter tomato sauce with turkish name". The meat was tender but not that flavorful, probably to better pair with the many sauce options. Salad was freshly mixed and crispy except for the parts touching the rice. It'd be nice if they could separate it somehow to avoid warm, soggy lettuce in some places. Portion sizes and quality are about fair for the price, but the yelp check in hummus is huge which makes it a great value imo. Interior and bathroom are clean and well maintained. Overall, the flavor was good though not great, but the service and value bring it up a star.“

Bertha helped us take our order. She was very friendly and kind. We ordered a chicken plate with salad, rice and sauces. I didn’t realize that the sauces now come on top of the chicken. Since I ordered a spicy sauce my husband, unfortunately, couldn’t eat it. I spoke to Jacob and he was very understanding and offered us an entirely new plate. He even brought out warm freshly made pita bread. Needless to say, we really enjoyed our lunch. The quality of food, outstanding service and attention to detail for their customers goes above and beyond! We will definitely be coming back soon!“

“I came in here for a snack and found the interior to be a delightful surprise - how charming! The brightly colored painted walls and lights made it so bright, cheery, warm, and welcoming. The service here was focused, professional, and kind. I loved how our food was brought out on a charming tray and our server removed each individual item with care and patience. It was a quaint experience to end our night with. I was also surprised at the culinary experience. We did not order much, as it was only meant to be a snack. I felt that they went above and beyond to complete our dining experience. The food felt very homemade in the best way possible - it was homey and comforting. The bread that covered the spinach pie (which was way larger than I was expecting) was fluffy, filling, warm, and just out of this world. The ideal bread experience! I am personally not a fan of the chicken shawarma here - it was reminiscent of street food/the Halal guys in the sense that it was more boiled meat than shawarma meat.. but the garlic sauce was uhhhmazing, as was the hot sauce, which was spicy with a hint of a sweet aftertaste. I am not a huge fan of soda, but if you have not tried Vimto, it is a MUST try. It complemented our food so well and I was beyond satisfied with this purchase. The food here was not exceptional, but I would give this experience overall 5 stars.“

They have an excellent breakfast menu at this location and Park Place. I wish I had taken photos today because there were some gorgeous plates served today for brunch. Their entrees are always great. I have tasted chicken, koobideh, flat iron steak and salmon kabobs and all are great. You can get one chicken and one koobideh with rice and a salad for a reasonable price and it will last you for days. Salmon on top of a salad is also highly recommended.

“Have you ever visited a spot and the first item you ordered was so tasty you never try another item on the menu? The grilled chicken wrap with their green sauce @ The Kebab Shop had that affect with me. I've stopped in four or five times now and that is my go to item (add rice please). Each time the chicken wrap lands at my table I'm amazed it how big it is, I tell myself to be responsible and save half for later...that never happens. I always finish in one seating, so tasty. Yes, the price point is a little spendy. I feel the quality, freshness and serving size more than offset that.“
