    Samosa, it's vegetarian. Potatoes are inside so good...
    Anthony N.

    I ordered this yesterday and had to run it back today, that's how good it is. I got the beef barg medium rare and it came out perfect. The boneless chicken is always juicy too since they use chicken thighs. Service, atmosphere, and food are always on point here!

    There are not many options for Mediterranean food in the SGV especially if you're not close to the Pasadena side of SGV. But, K Grill Kabob is a nice casual option offering beef, chicken and lamb options. I usually judge a new place with the chicken shawarma (okay Spiderman) but they ran out of both beef and chicken schwarma that night. The prices are affordable and they even make burgers with the beef or chicken koobideh meat which I want to try next time. But, the beef wrap with koobideh already sends burger vibes. Check out my pics.

    Probably the best Mediterranean food nearby! So delicious, I couldn't find anything wrong or lacking in any of the dishes I tried. Portions are generous as well! Food is super fresh.

    Food is delicious and service is fast and friendly. Came in this last weekend and I'm back today. Definitely a spot to revisit

    Have never been here before, but will definitely return. Our Server's name was Maria and she was so wonderful and hospitable gave great recommendations and the food was amazing. She greeted us with a warm smile and made us feel right at home.

    Food was so delicious. My chicken and veg skewer tasted fresh and the rice was really good too. We also added extra bread, garlic sauce, a jalapeño and a beef skewer for good measure. It seemed a little pricey but it ended up making 2 meals for me and a very happy daughter. #Priceless

    【Background】 Thursday, February 20, 2025, 2:10 PM About a year ago, I came across a Tiktok where an Iranian restaurant owner in Dubai detailed how to correctly eat chelow kebab [1], which is considered the national dish of Iran [2]. "Chelow" refers to the steamed rice component while "kebab" refers to a variety of roasted meats. I've never heard of the dish before and thought the eating process was so fascinating that I looked up Persian restaurants nearby that offered a similar setup, which is how I came across K Grill Kabob. The restaurant is located in the Cali Saigon Mall, across the SF Supermarket and between Jin Tea House and 37.2 Degree Cafe & Curry. It is a little hidden, but if you see a tall gate with a yellow sign on top with the words "K Grill Kabob", you're in the right place. I hate the term "hole in the wall" since it seems like every reviewer uses it, but it's pretty appropriate for this restaurant. Inside is quaint with matching maroon curtains and tablecloths. It's slightly glitzy with a crystal chandelier hanging in the center of the room while piano music plays overhead. A nice draft occasionally enveloped the room since the side door was open. (Supposedly, there's patio seating, which would've been nice since it was a sunny day out, but the employee didn't offer that option.) Inside, there's a decent amount of seating with four tables of 4, one larger row of 10, and three half booths of 4. Shakers of sumac and salt conveniently sit on each table. There was only one other party of two eating when I arrived, so I'm not sure if the restaurant is busier during typical lunch hours. 【Food】 Menu: https://kgrillkabob.my.canva.site/main-menu A banner at the top of the website contains a link to the daily special menu [3], which offers different discounted entrees depending on the day of the week. However, I asked the employee if they still honor the daily specials, and they said no. Instead, the regular menu has a general lunch specials section, available Tuesday through Friday, 11:00 AM - 3:00 PM. I ordered: * Koobideh combo ($15.99) As mentioned above, I specifically visited K Grill Kabob because the koobideh combo looked extremely similar to the food in the TIktok. The order came with a mound of plain basmati rice and the golden basmati rice, colored with saffron, along with one charred tomato. And of course, it included the stars of the show: one beef skewer and one chicken skewer. I followed the instructions in the video by first smashing the tomato and thoroughly mixing it with the rice. Then I generously sprinkled sumac over everything. Finally, I cut up the kebabs into smaller pieces. I made sure each bite contained a piece of meat and some of the tomato rice mixture. The savoriness from the juicy meat paired nicely with the light, fluffy rice; the tomato and its juice added sweetness while the sumac added a nice hint of tartness. The skewers were very moist, so I wonder if the meat mixture contained any grated onion (which is typical according to Wikipedia [4]). I did have one small gripe since the beef skewer was a bit room temperature, but it still tasted great; I actually prefer the beef over the chicken, but both are tasty options. I was pleasantly surprised since I also received some pita bread with a garlic dip as this wasn't advertised on the menu. I'm not sure if this is usually included with every order or maybe only certain items. The warm pita tasted great with the salty, garlicky dip. The koobideh combo contained a lot of food and was extremely filling. I can't speak about the authenticity since it was my first time eating Persian food. From my preliminary research, it appears super traditional koobideh is made from ground lamb [4]. Regardless, my koobideh combo was delicious, and I definitely recommend visiting K Grill Kabob and trying their food. 【Service】 Since I arrived pretty late for lunch, it was super empty, and the employee seated me immediately. They gave me a few minutes to browse the menu. I ordered and received my food in a little less than 10 minutes. They checked up on me once to ask how everything was. I received my bill before I even finished eating. Overall, service was fast and friendly. 【Parking】 Since the restaurant is located in a big strip mall, there are tons of parking spots, making parking extremely easy. 【Tips】 There's a 4% checkout fee when using a credit or debit card, so bring cash if you want to avoid it. ---------- [1] https://www.tiktok.com/@iranzamindubai/video/7373240072142851335 [2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chelow_kabab [3] https://kgrillkabob.my.canva.site/dailyspecials [4] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kabab_koobideh

    Falafel - sorry they smelled so good, and I was so hungry. I ate one before taking the picture!
    Hayden H.

    Loved everything about it! The service was awesome! She was running her tail off! She made perfect recommendations so I could get exactly what I wanted! Every piece of food was excellent - falafel, vegetarian sampler, lentil soup, and she mentioned vegetarian samosas at the end - so I took an order home with me. They were so good!

    Chopped up kebab.
    Mariana E.

    I've been trying to try the Shawarma at this place probably for the past two weeks now. Unfortunately despite the reviews, it's not all it's read to be. I ordered two Shawarma wraps and what I got is chopped up kabob. Obviously the texture is not what it should be and it makes trying to eat these wraps very disappointing. Tried to contact the restaurant however, there was no answer. I hope that it was a mistake and I was given kebab by accident, but I really think that they tried to pass off kabob as Shawarma.

    we got a plate and a shawarma gyro/wrap with appetizers such as the yogurt and cucumber salsa. The appetizers were good but the food was ok. My wrap was not the traditional sliced meat it was more like shredded pieces and it was dry. The texture was not at all good. It reminded me of a carnitas burrito. The plate was pretty but the meat was very oily.

    Does anyone know if they're still open?

    Just got a text from them saying they are reopening on June 26, 2021!! They also got a new number (626) 426-2594.

    Does anyone know if this restaurant is still open for business? seems no one is answering their phones.

    I am wandering the same thing . Someone in the West Covina buzz said they are closed because rent was too high. If you find them please let me know. Their food was amazing

    Catering for small office lunch? Around 20 people?

    Yes, they catered for my family around 20 of us for my sons graduation amidst pandemic and everyone loved it! They delivered free and it was presented nicely. A Must do to support them.

We both got the chicken shawarma with rice and pita and a side order of falafel and it all tasted excellent and fresh. The owner Kal was generous to throw in some extra sauces even though we didn't add them originally which was very kind.

He let us try the beef empanadas and the salsa which was his own recipe and it was absolutely delicious. This will forever be our spot to visit when we come to the movies.

In the short time we were there, he has made new friends in us and we will be back soon.

I would like to consider myself a huge advocate for Mediterranean food and this place is pretty good! I got a chicken shawarma plate. Comes with their halal chicken, basmati rice, hummus (I think it's made in house), and a green salad with their tangy, citrus, vinegar sauce. The chicken and rice is very moist. I'd definitely consider this place my go to, especially because I've moved away from where my previous go to place was (chicken maison). Different types of Mediterranean food, but still very good! I added a home made spicy lemon garlic sauce to dip and eat with (knock off of chicken maisons sauce)

My husband and I usually order take-out, but on our recent visit, we decided to dine in. We arrived on a Sunday evening (5pm). Parking is shared with other businesses in the plaza. We found one in the shade. The restaurant is small, but they utilize their space well. There are 4 tables and I believe 3 high-top tables as well as outdoor seating. The interior is well-kept and decorated nicely to match the Greek theme. Ordering takes place at the counter, no self-serve kiosk. They have many menu options like sides, gyros, plates, kids menu, family meal, lunch specials, soups, and desserts. My go-to item is their Greek Chicken Pita with Lemon Sauce in place of the tzatziki ($13). I would sometimes order this with a side of fries, but my husband got it in his combo. The reason I order this all the time is because the pita not only tastes amazing, it's also filling! There's grilled chicken, potatoes, pickled onions, greens, and lemon sauce. The pita is thick and has the perfect chew to it. There is so much flavor in every bite! The fries were delicious as well. They were soft on the inside and crisp and seasoned well on the outside. Overall, a great spot for Mediterranean food. I would happily recommend this to anyone!
