Last night, my guests and I arrived at 8:12 after driving 45 minutes to get there. As soon as I stepped in, the guy in the kitchen said, “Sorry, we don’t have food — the kitchen is closed!” I’ve been there many times and have never had an experience like this. It’s really upsetting, especially since it says the restaurant closes at 9 p.m. I’ll never go there again

Absolutely delicious and authentic Persian food! I’ve tried many kabob places around Los Angeles, but Shekarchi Kabob is on another level. The meat is perfectly grilled — juicy, flavorful, and tender — and the rice is always fluffy with just the right amount of saffron. Their Soltani Combo is my go-to; it’s generous and perfectly seasoned.
The restaurant is spotless, the staff are polite and attentive, and the service is fast even during busy hours. You can tell they take pride in both the food and the hospitality. The prices are fair for the quality and portions, and parking is easy on Westwood Blvd.
If you’re craving real Persian kabob and a warm, welcoming vibe, this place is a must-try. Highly recommend!

I had the beef kabob at Shekarchi Kabob, and it was absolutely amazing! The meat was perfectly cooked—tender, juicy, and full of flavor with just the right amount of seasoning. You can really taste the quality and care they put into the preparation. The portion was generous, and every bite melted in my mouth. If you’re craving authentic, delicious kabob, this place is a must-try. Definitely coming back again!

It’s a solid option, loved the food it’s a bit heavy and wish they could add some side sauces but other than that it’s great!

The staff here is really kind. They work very hard and are super nice. The owner needs to compensate them better and more fairly or hire more people to help them because it seems they are always busy and stretched thin but still do their very, very best.
As far as the food, it is very overpriced. You don't seem to receive your money's worth but it is still fresh and not too bad in the taste department.
The atmosphere feels tiny but is quite cozy as a result.
Overall, I would return but maybe not frequently. The people working here are the best part of the experience and they deserve better pay and more help.

I'm not Persian but I love kebab and I've tried all the famous kebab places in LA and San Diego and in many other states as well. I can honestly say without a doubt that the kubideh (ground beef) kebab at Shekarchi is the best I've ever had. Second place is not even in the same league as Shekarchi.
The best kebabs I have had. Everything from the rice to the veg to the meat is notably excellent. Get the yogurt soda ( doogh abali) but let them show you how to open it . Bonus: check out the art from the owner, @amanartdesigns on Insta. Just first rate

Three of us had dinner. Soltani and kobideh kabobs. Meats were oily test disgusting Pay meat was rough and uncooked. Not delicious at all. Don’t go there and don’t waste your money .

Shekarchi Kabob is a hidden gem in LA! The koobideh was absolutely amazing – perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection. The restaurant has such a cozy and homey vibe, making it the perfect spot for a comforting meal. The service was outstanding and truly reflected the warm and authentic Iranian hospitality that makes you feel right at home. Can’t wait to come back!
