From Houston took a business trip to SD. Best food and service I have had in a while. Houston is full of such restaurants, but I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and quantity of food there. I don't remember the names the two guys that took and made the order should get a raise.

Order online, and pick up on time. They’ll call you if you don’t pick it up. Pick it up though and say thank you. This place is clutch. Great lunch spot and perfect Mediterranean diet style wraps. Worth the extra $2 for carved lamb and beef. Don’t recommend fries, felafel is better. Do recommend everything else. Grab some extra yogurt/ chile sauce at the sauce bar and don’t spread your germs. Green is mild. Red is super spicy. Be warned.

Always been a favorite of mine for the best Kebabs in downtown San Diego! Very healthy and not overly greasy or fatty. Quality ingredients come here for a great price and quick service. Went recently after a Padres game (vs Yankees) on a Friday night& was amazed at the customer service provided by Atua and Felipe. The quality of their kebabs was great, fresh and made with care and was the 1st time I got to meet them. Awesome experience to go back to one my favorite spots and see great people working there years later. My Personal favorite go-to is the Basic Chicken kebab with all 3 sauces on the side. Each is unique and use them more as “dipping sauce” to experience different combinations of flavors. Will definitely be back as a Padres season tix holder and hopefully Atua & Felipe will be there again as they are great people to order & eat food from. Thanks again!

Solidly okay. Better than anticipated and would probably say it’s akin to a Mediterranean version of chipotle but it’s made to order. There is a wait for the food because of the fact that it is indeed made to order but it’s nice to know the food is fresh. Recommend the hummus and falafel especially.

Kebab Shop is my go to when I'm in the gaslamp. 5 stars in all categories. I was a little disappointed they discontinued the meatballs but I had the Kafta and it's actually better. Doesnt matter if you like a wrap or a plate both are exceptional. The manager is a cool dude as well. Always very pleasant and on top of his game. Fair warning, it takes like 10 or 15 minutes for the steak so be patient when you go there and order a freshly cooked skewer of meat.

January 2024 Update: We stopped in for a late dinner and food was amazing as always. Falafel was great and I always love the pita wraps. Service was friendly and efficient. This is our favorite Kebab Shop for sure. Try the spicy hummus! Always a good place to grab a quick meal. Maybe the food isn’t as fresh as some other Mediterranean restaurants but for fast food it’s always dependable and tastes great. I love the red sauce and the garlic yogurt with my beef and lamb wrap. Try adding the spicy hummus - it adds some nice flavor.

Fantastic service, great food, very good value. We came from out of town and this was our first time visiting. We were pleasantly surprised to find a server who was extraordinarily friendly and even gave us free fries and an entree (another customer didn’t want what they ordered). Got the kofta kebab and the lamb doner— both were great, though we preferred the kofta a bit more. Salads were fresh and flavorful. Hands down would come back here again.

Great halal option (craved lamb beef only) if you are craving doner in SD! The wrap is huge but in my opinion the ratio of lamb meat vs other fillings is less so I added extra protein and it was just perfect. Good guys at the counter.

They claim to sell döner, but it is not döner, if you actually have a clue what döner is. We had chicken "döner", which was very dry and tasteless. They didn't even have ayran. You can't call yourself a döner shop and not have ayran. It is a crime. There are burritos that taste more like döner than their "döner". The two stars are for the sauces, fries and their Mexican coke. Bu kadar abi.

The “kebab” with chicken option missing taste. You don’t mix chicken with lettuce :) And it was zero salt, a bit overcooked. You still need to learn a lot about kebab culture. Please discover durum options from Hatay, Bursa, and Berlin instead of Taksim square. Because that was the taste :) People working in the place are very kind, however two different radios playing different music and a bit loud, makes you feel you want to eat and leave asap

The food and serving sizes alongwith the service at this restaurant were very good.However the ambience, cleanliness and decor at best were average. The prices were also on the higher side. Ps.I asked the staff for some warm water or water at room temperature,and he said that he only had cold water and couldn't be bothered at all in any way to please the customer by fulfilling a customer's simple and ordinary request.The general motto of many many many companies in USA seems to be:HIGH CHARGES IN RETURN FOR VERY POOR SERVICE.

Overall the Food itself is great - big fan of the Kebabshop. The only problem seems to be that they can NEVER get the order right. Out of the 20 times I've ordered they've missed items 9 times. And im not exaggerating. Whenever I inform them I am even getting blamed for not checking, the only thing im asking for them to do is add 4-7 items into a bag and that didn't happen and it's my fault for not checking?

Had to eat a salad, rice, and kabob with hands. Called the number provided and after wasting 20 minutes, they said to call the store. When we called the store, it was already closed.
