“Jacob, Fairie, and I went to Smyrna tonight and it was exceptional. Our server, David was welcoming, attentive, and down to earth. He knows a good bit about Cville music history which was a plus for us! Orhun is also a music lover and is the reason we had to check out this amazing spot. His and the team’s hospitality is top of the line. Everything we had was great and full of flavor that would include the Meze Trio, the Charred Octopus , the Market Greens and even the carrots were outstanding. Don’t sleep on this gem, Cville.“

The entrees were sumptuous; we got the Italian sausage pasta and the salmon. We travel through Charlottesville twice a year and dine here on our way up and back each year. It’s my favorite part of our trip. Service is excellent.“

“The food at Sticks Kebob Shop is always wonderful, but honestly, the staff is even better! Every time I visit, I'm greeted with a smile and treated like they genuinely want me to be there. That kind of hospitality keeps me coming back just as much as the food.

My go-to order is the Chicken Kebob Platter with Fire Roasted Sauce, and it never disappoints. Everything is fresh, flavorful, and consistently delicious.

And whatever you do, DON'T forget the brownies! They are absolutely amazing and the perfect way to finish your meal.

Great food, outstanding customer service, and a welcoming atmosphere every single time!“
