    Chicken and lamb plate with rice, gluten-free naan and side salad
    Stephanie B.

    From the bright white decor, the friendly staff (and patrons) as well as the flavorful delicious Mediterranean food--Kabab Guys Mediterranean Cuisine is a restaurant you will put on your favorite list whether you live in DeWitt/Syracuse NY or just visiting. Not only do I have celiac disease, I am also a foodie and very picky. For me it's not just about how great the food tastes, it's also about the experience: meal presentation, staff friendliness, food allergy knowledge, restaurant cleanliness and ambience. Kabab Guys checks all those boxes and more--and the staff and owners were extremely accommodate and knowledgeable regarding my gluten allergy--they even made gluten-free naan for me. Yay! Hummus is one of my favorites and I have to say Kabab Guys hummus will make your mouth water. Not only did I have their hummus, I also had the lamb, chicken and rice--all were exceptional--I can see why this restaurant has a consistent flow of patrons. If you don't eat chicken or lamb, no worries, they also have fish, beef and veggie plates. If you are like me and have celiac disease the falafels, fries and pita wraps are not gluten-free, however they have many other options that are. Thank you Kabab Guys for a wonderful experience. I will definitely be back when I visit Syracuse again.

    Grilled Salmon - Platters
    Paige B.

    Really wanted to love this place but it was meh. First, walking in, the place is beautiful! Loved how bright, clean, open it was and the artwork was beautiful giving homage to places around the world. I was greeted (barely) by a woman with a really dry and cold reception. While I attempted to make small talk telling her how beautiful the place was, she never smiled and didn't entertain any discussion. I ordered and had higher hopes for the food to be better than the service. I'll admit, the food was tasty. I had the salmon platter which was cooked well and seasoned perfectly. The salmon, rice and salad was all delicious but not worth $22. If I could put a price on it, I would say about $18 worth of food. I think it was a little pricey but the food had great taste. Nice place, service isn't good but the food is good just a lil pricey.

    Stopped here on a whim and we are already wondering when we will next be here. Fast service. Really good food. I got the chicken Schwarma wrap. I'm a guy who doesn't like my sandwiches with tons of filler. Meat and sauce. These guys designed this wrap with me in mind. Literally all chicken and Garlic Aioli in a wrap with a nice sear and grill marks. My gf got a Lamb Kebab Wrap. The meat was very tender and she was really happy with it. So filling she couldn't finish her fries. Restaurant was very clean with beautiful pictures over every table showcasing different middle eastern cities with accompanying music. Can't recommend enough.

    $35 mixed grill kebab. The rice was amazing- like the smallest of dusting of spice to it made something simple pair so well with the meat.

    Food 5/5 service- very kind 5/5 Ambiance- very clean 5/5 Food 5/5 We will be back! Totally unexpected experience for a place that is off Erie Blvd in Syracuse, tucked back into a plaza.

    Shawarma chicken and Shawarma Beef - Platters.

    I'd been hearing so many good things about Kabab Guys I had to check them out. We went to the location on West Genesee St. I ordered through door dash for pickup. The menu has so many choices! I ordered a chicken shawarma platter and a beef and chicken shawarma platter. Both came with a garlic aioli that tasted excellent mixed with the meats. It also came with rice that was so delicious! The meats also were delicious! Not overly spicy just perfect! I also ordered the nut baklava so buttery and delicious! Definitely will be going back! We had to wait a little bit for our order but that's ok it was well worth the wait! Staff was very nice! Nice and bright in the restaurant with parking right out front!

    Run, don't walk to Kabab guys if you like Mediterranean food! Stopped in for lunch and ordered the lamb gyro and beef shawarma combos, along with falafel and baba ghanouj. Quite literally the freshest gyro meat I've tasted. Everything was served nicely on platters, and the restaurant is fresh and very clean. Will definitely be back!

    This is one of the best new spots in Syracuse for Mediterranean or middle eastern style food. Clean restaurant, friendly service and delicious food! I went with the Kebab Platter which came with Lamb, beef, chicken and kibbeh over rice with a small salad. The beef was filet, which was tender. The lamb had great flavor and the chicken was what you'd expect with chicken I guess! The rice was a solid portion and the small salad was a nice touch. One of the show stealers was the garlic aioli dip that they provided with the meal, it was delicious and gave the chicken what it was missing. Solid quality and quantity for the price I paid, we will definitely be back to enjoy their other dishes! Quick service too. I saw a couple shawarma plates come out and it looks like that'll be my next selection!

    Good food. Not incredible for the price. Prepare for a wait and to tip approximately. I'm imagining a better price but hey

    Stopped in on a Saturday. Ordered a 12' Philly and Cajun fries. Came out to around 17 dollars…read more Staff was very friendly, but the place is small. Waited only five minutes for the food, pretty sweet. Thing was piping hot and filling. I wish there were more peppers and onions though. Cajun fries were tasty and plentiful. No complaints. I'll probably be back.

    This place definitely gives me bodega vibes, and overall, I had a good experience--but I've had two…read morevery different visits. The first time I went was during the lunch rush, and honestly, it was amazing. Before I was even fully inside, the staff greeted me, asked if it was my first time, offered me samples, walked me through the menu, and gave recommendations based on what they personally liked and what they thought I'd enjoy. They even explained which sauces paired best with different items. The energy in the restaurant was so upbeat and welcoming, even though they were incredibly busy. They treated every customer that way, and it really made me feel like they value both their employees and their customers. That positive atmosphere definitely stood out. On top of that, the food was fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. I left thinking, "I'm definitely coming back." My second visit was around the start of the dinner rush, around 6:00-6:30 p.m., and it was a completely different experience. The staff was still kind and polite, but the energy just wasn't the same. It felt much quieter and less engaging than my first visit. I also paid for extra sauce because I remembered wanting more the first time and having to pay for it, but my meal came without any sauce on the food--it was only on the side. When I asked about it, they had no problem fixing it and were very friendly about it, which I appreciated but it just seemed odd that the first time my food was made with sauce included. Unfortunately, the food itself also didn't taste quite as good as it did during my first visit. I haven't tried any of the desserts yet, but they looked incredible. The cake slices are HUGE--I honestly think one slice could easily be shared between two or even three people. At around $7.99, I think they're reasonably priced considering the portion size. Overall, I also found the menu prices to be fair, and there's a great variety of options to choose from. Because my experiences were so different, I'm giving this place 4 stars instead of 5. If my second visit had matched my first, this easily would have been a five-star review. I'll definitely be back, and next time I'll probably stick to going during lunch since that first experience was so memorable. For anyone wondering what I ordered, I got the chicken and lamb halal over rice. It came with onions, tomatoes, and a few other toppings (I don't eat onions, so I can't remember everything that was included), along with a piece of naan bread. During my first visit, I couldn't decide between breakfast and lunch, and the staff recommended I try the rice platter--and I'm so glad they did because it was delicious. I still couldn't resist ordering a side of French toast, though, and that was a great choice too! Everything was generously portioned, and I left full both times with left overs. I do believe they told me they serve breakfast all day as well.
