If you're looking for an unforgettable dining experience, The Kebaba Shop is an absolute gem! From the moment you step in, you're welcomed into an atmosphere that is incredibly neat, clean, and thoughtfully arranged—the seating setup is simply mind-blowing in both comfort and style.

But what truly sets this place apart is the lighting-fast service. The staff are attentive, friendly, and efficient—you barely have to wait before your food arrives, freshly made and piping hot.

And let’s talk about the taste—because wow, this is where The Kebaba Shop really shines. Every bite is bursting with flavor, cooked to perfection, and clearly made with high-quality ingredients. Whether you're a kebab lover or trying it for the first time, you’re in for a remarkable culinary experience.

This place is the full package: immaculate ambiance, lightning-fast service, and unforgettable flavor. Highly recommended—you’ll want to keep coming back!

Overall it was 5 star experience. My kids loved fries, samosa, kabab, chicken and naan . I liked lamb shank with Kabuli pulao. Price was very reasonable as compared to other restaurants.

This restaurant is probably the #1 place I order from. I enjoyed their food & it was reliable. I’ve introduced this restaurant to many, many people.

However, on a recent outing with friends, my opinion of this restaurant was completely shattered. A friend had found a thick, black hair mixed in with the chicken. The rest of us immediately lost our appetites. We weren’t sure if we should bring it up to the management as we didn’t want to create a fuss.

Eventually, we all agreed we should inform the staff as we had only just started eating and we had decided to abandon our meals out of disgust.

When the owner was informed (an older gentleman), he immediately was angry. He said we were playing tricks to get a free meal (mind you, none of us have thick, black hair, and I am a regular patron of the restaurant).

He offered to remake our plates plus give us a tour of the kitchen to “prove” cleanliness. We argued that we are not contesting cleanliness, but a hair in food is very off-putting and we had lost our appetites.

He continued his aggression and threw cash from the till at us as we exited. He told us we were not welcome back (as if we were ever going to be returning).

This was a very upsetting situation. Especially as a regular customer, I am appalled at the owners behaviour. I’m now thinking of all the times I ate the food and unknowingly consumed hair.

I strongly urge those reading this review to be careful when ordering at this restaurant because if there are any issues with your food, the management will NOT take responsibility and BLAME YOU.

I was introduced to Kebab Shoppe by a few friends and had enjoyed their food on several occasions. However, during my most recent visit, we had a terrible experience that completely changed my opinion.

While eating, my friend found a hair in her food. When we brought this to the owner’s attention, instead of acknowledging the issue, he repeatedly claimed he couldn’t see the hair. He did offer to remake the bowl, but understandably, my friend declined — who would want to eat at the same place after finding a hair in their food?

When she asked for a refund (since we had only taken two bites), the situation escalated. Instead of a sincere apology, the owner became aggressive and defensive. He insisted no one had complained all day and invited us to inspect his kitchen to prove its cleanliness. He then accused us of trying to scam him for money, dropped two $20 bills, and, as we were leaving, threw another $20 bill at us.

This behavior was completely unacceptable and unprofessional. A simple apology and refund would have resolved the situation with grace and class, but the owner’s reaction turned a manageable mistake into an unpleasant confrontation.

A younger cashier, on the other hand, acknowledged the hair after inspecting the food — which further underscored how dismissive and gaslighting the owner’s behavior was.

Customer service is just as important as food quality, and in this case, both were lacking. I cannot recommend a place that treats customers this way.
