Tel Aviv Kebab House

I didn't and won't go to a restaurant who glorifies occupation and apartheid. End of story.

Everytime I came here I had a different experience. Once I ordered and found a piece of hair. The next time the beef and chicken didn't taste good, along with their soup. Consistency is key !!! This restaurant lacks it. The service - we waited an hour for the food to come out, while others who came after us received their food first. I will not be coming back . I was disappointed and am being generous with the rating.

I'll start by saying my expectations were not so high when I grabbed takeout from here on a snowy day. And I was very much pleasantly surprised. It's a super unassuming spot, it was empty when I went, it's in a quieter area of Main Street.

Grabbed two things: chicken lula and pilimeny soup. I wasn't so familiar with really either of these. The chicken was delicious: plump, well-flavored, nicely portioned. Simple came with onions and nothing else. But a surprisingly good price for the size of beef. The soup I really didn't know what to expect but the broth was really a nice delight. It was heartier than I expected and the dumplings were plentiful and filled with meat. I will say I wish it came with a spoon (luckily I was eating at home).

Will definitely consider coming back to try more of the kebabs and definitely more of the soups. Altogether ~$18 which for the area is very reasonable.

It didn't quite turn out as delicious, & savory kabobs as we came to expect as a first timer ordered here to take out. The problem began with the "communication" as I (didn't speak Hebrew) called in. Two guys, on the phone (& in person as well) but struggled to explain their dishes. It was pretty late to call in other known kabob places. So, blinded by the Google Ratings (4.2*), I ordered.

The kabobs didn't taste good (as the meats & chicken weren't cooked enough or well. The tastes weren't there as the beef smelled a bit. I eat Glatt Kosher meat all the time. Also, the host confirmed white Basmati rice on the phone. Yet it was anything but plain white rice but. Sweet non-white rice full of with carrots, & beans. I thought Pahal Zan's (at 71st/Continental Ave & Austin St) kabobs were overrated (never rated them on Google) but at least, Tel Aviv guys weren't rude also (had smiles on 'em). DON'T order, if you are used to eating kabobs at Ravagh, Kolbeh, or other more known Persian kabob places in the city. You will be sorely disappointed & would remain starved overnight until the next time you have decent kabobs at a known restaurant) as I felt like my money was wasted. Once again, the hosts were nice at least.

Tell me you are into culture and food appropriation without telling me that you are into food and culture appropriation. I mean come on now. Stolen food from a stolen land.
