    Listeeeeennnn... This place is straight sleeper win here... I was riding down Roosevelt BLVD and saw this place. I said, what the heck, I'll stop there and check it out. The first thing that struck me was the food ready to serve behind the glass looked clean and fresh. The guy who I can only assume was the owner, asked me if I wanted any samples. Of course I said yes 😁 So I sampled the curry goat and butter chicken.... OH MY!!! It was piping hot and sooooo good! I was in a place where I couldn't decide what I wanted. I love lamb. The guy behind the counter could tell I was undecided and started talking to me about the menu. One thing that stood out to me about this guy is that I could tell he had a lot of fire and passion for his craft. He sold me on the So lamb kabob platter with chick peas and salad. Let me tell you... I opened this platter and oh my goodness.... The aromas hit my nose and all I wanted to do was eat!!! So I took the spoon and tried the chick peas first. Whoa!!! I never had chick peas that good! Fresh, perfectly seasoned, not too mushy, not too dry; the perfect taste. Then I tried the salad. Ok, it's a salad. But I give him props because it was fresh and crisp. Those potatoes... I've never had potatoes styled this way... Oh my!!!! Flavors soooo good!!! Now onto the rice. The rice had the perfect flavor and dryness. It also had the little allspice (I think) seeds in there. Then I tried the lamb....... OMG!!! It's rare that these Kabob places actually cook their Kabobs over coals. You could taste the charcoal in these kabobs, but the smoke flavor didn't overpower the perfectly nuanced spices that seasoned the meat. It was the best lamb I ever tasted. By now you're probably thinking, this guy works for this place or knows the owner personally. I can tell you I don't. I drive uber sometimes in my spare time. That's how I discovered this place. Go here, it's the best kabobs I've ever tasted. You won't be disappointed!

    Very good food, quick service & good quantity. Will definitely go there again. The chilli level is low, so one must tell them to make a little more spicy.

    I ordered the chicken samosas for my app. and it was flaky and so savory. I also I got the butter chicken and it was super flavor, tender and just really good! They replaced the mango juice I ordered for the smoothie which was so sweet and creamy. I didn’t get the garlic naan I asked for but, the service here was very nice, efficient, and the space was clean too. Gets busy around dinner time!

    We have ordered from this place atleast twice a month since they opened, but we will no longer be doing that after how we were treated today. My wife placed an order online. She received a call saying they ran out of veggies and asked if we would like chicken. My wife said that was fine as long as it was boneless because our young son would be eating it. The worker checked with the manager and said $4.50 up charge. We wanted veggie to begin with and my wife reiterated that and said there shouldn’t be a charge because they didn’t have what we ordered. The worker again checked with the manager who said cancel our order. The owner of Kabobi should really talk to this so called manager about how to treat a customer. We are long time customers as are our friends and neighbors. We will be sure to tell them all about our experience. We will not be returning.

    Great lunch specials. Love the portions! Seating inside and outside, weather permitting. Ample parking spots. Takes credit cards. Definite recommend.

  • 3/5 Neil L. 2 years ago on Google • 201 reviews
    The food taste great but the portions was not impressive for that price. First of all, they serve the food on paper plates....that turned me off! The wait wasn't long (20 mins) but when we (my fiance and i) got our bending paper plates of food we started looking around for the rest of the meat...they served each plate with one skewer of meat. 3/4 of the food went in the trash. What sense does that make? There was no meat left to take home for a doggy bag. I won't be going back, unless they give me an offer I can't refuse.

    The best lamb chop kabob I've had in a long time. Just perfect without being spicy. Great for a keto diet. Just don't look at the baklava.

    Such a great find in the northeast. Husband and I drive by this place all the time and finally were able to come by and have some delicious food! Such a great mix on the menu. Husband had the spicy/tangy kabob and I had the chicken tikka masala. So good! Service was great and atmosphere was nice. We look forward to returning ;)

    The food was good and the service was fine, but I had a bad experience there when I ordered two plates of biriyane for dine-in and discovered a large piece of polythene in one of them. I complained, but the staff probably saw my complaint as unimportant because it was minor; however, if I had taken my complaint seriously, it could have had serious consequences for the restaurant's license. but I didn't have time for if, so be careful in the restaurant. however, I will not be returning to eat there.

    We ordered the veggie biryani for my nephew and they called and said they’re out of veggies so they offered us the chicken biryani. We said yes but we needed it to be boneless chicken and they said the order was already being prepared and if we wanted boneless they will have to charge us extra. We said as a courtesy, the fee for the boneless chicken should be waived because they didn’t have what we originally ordered and they said forget it and canceled our order. All bc we needed boneless chicken!! What kind of place doesn’t want business? They’re rude, don’t even bother giving them your business.

    Food was good was told that it would be 25-30 minutes. Was there for almost 1 hour little disappointed by that. Otherwise friendly staff and environment.

  • 1/5 Ridvan S. 1 year ago on Google
    I ordered 3 different meal. 2 lamb and 1 chicken. They sent these 3 meals in 1 container , all food mixed to each other. I called him and said one of my guest dont eat lamb and chicken is smelling like lamb He didnt help anything , he was blaming uber but there is nothing to with uber you did package and dont accept your fault. They are not professional. I spent almost $60 for nothing i throw it away.

    Ordered take out. They have the best butter chicken! Also, the charcoal chicken skewer is delish. They are always so nice, too.

    Had tandoori chicken kebabs along with rice, pickled onions, potatoes and bread. Gentlemen explained all the options as it was my first time. Food is flavorful and delicious , very fresh. Bread was delicious, mix between Naan and pita. Highly recommended, give a new food a chance
