    Cooked to order.  Tender and fresh.
    Mike H.

    What an amazing place! It's literally a hole in the wall that is well worth the visit. There is a kiosk at the front for a quick order and about 6 tables inside. If you prefer, walk deeper into the store and you can order from the counter. The place is spotless, updated and trendy be design. The shining star is the food. The lamb shawarma is fantastic. The meat is tender the rice is cooked to perfection and overall I would give these humble people 10 stars if I could.

    The chicken kebab plate. Chicken is hidden under the pita.

    I was excited to try out this Mediterranean place with good yelp review. We stopped by for work lunch. When I arrived before noon, there were already two tables of customers. The menu I had a great variety of choices. Prices a little higher than the neighborhood Mediterranean restaurant but we wanted to give it a try. I ordered the chicken kebab and my co worker ordered the lamb. The ambiance is nice and cozy. Brand new decor as a new restaurant. We waited about 30 minutes before the food was served. As we started eating, we saw more people coming in for the lunch rush. The food is good, I could taste the grill. The hummus is seasoned well, not too salty. The rice is fluffy and the pita bread is good. I understand the new restraint has to test and fine tune their kitchen operation. Maybe I will come back half a year later after they figured out a more efficient operation. In the Monrovia, there are many choices of good Mediterranean restaurants with excellent food and better prices. I encourage the restaurant to continue provide more value for the customers.

    I visited this small eatery for an afternoon bowl of steaming hot lentil soup. The soup was not thick, definitely soupy. The flavor was pleasantly mild and also was brighten up with a drizzle of fresh lemon juice. The pita chips were crunchy and savory. Order at the electronic pad upon entry for dine-in or take out. Service was polite.

    Gosh who knew I'd get to an age where I'd actually use the coupons from our quarterly local magazine that features local businesses that give you coupons for said businesses. We found ourselves here on a night we didn't feel like cooking, with a 10% coupon off your total bill in hand. You can't use the kiosk and do have to order at the register, but it went very smoothly. There were other patrons there having dinner, which was nice to see. We ordered two plates for carry out - beef lule kebab and lamb shawarma. Comes with pilaf rice, grilled tomato, grilled jalapeño, a salad and pita with hummus. Also came with tzatziki and toom. We were told it would take 15-20 minutes and they kindly offered us hot tea while we waited, for a to go order! That was so nice of them, seriously. We didn't mind the wait at all. The food was so fresh with amazing portions and it was so delicious. So much food for the price! My lamb shawarma plate was easily two meals for me. This area lacks good Mediterranean options in general and it looks like we just found our spot for Mediterranean food here! We will definitely be back! Bonus: Lots of free and easy parking to be had. Kababstic indeed!

    Beef plate (no rice, double salad)
    Liv M.

    We had dinner at Kababstic. The place has indoor/outdoor seating. The server, offered us tea as we waited for the rest of our party to arrive. The tea is served hot in a beautiful small kettle and glass cups, so aesthetically pleasing. The tea is so good, a must have for sure. I had the beef plate with no rice (extra salad), bowl of hummus, grilled veggies and pita. The beef is perfectly marinated and tender, the pita is thin, which is perfect for my liking, the salad dressing is fragrant, herby, and the hummus is topped with whole chickpeas, herbs and olive oil. My daughter had the falafel plate, which is a generous portion of croquettes, rice, salad, hummus, and tahini sauce. The food is fresh, delicious and fragrant. The server, a tall young man was friendly and attentive. It's wonderful to find a delicious Mediterranean eatery nearby. I can wait to go back.

    Lamb Kabab Plate
    Joy B.

    Let's talk about this food! It's now my favorite out of my three go-to Mediterranean restaurants. The portions are just right and they've been consistent in quality. I love the lamb Kabab plate, meat is well seasoned/tender, salad, humus, and pickled beets are great! The Beef and Veggie samosas were not a hit (Beef-not enough season, Veggie- mushy). I plan to try other items on the menu in due time. The inside is pretty casual and great for lunch or dinner. Service has been good each time I've been in.

    Chicken and Beef. Salad, Hummus, Rice, etc.
    Janet L.

    Enjoyed the food. It was delicious Service was friendly and timely. I would recommend this place to my friends for a quick casual bite. I found this place on yelp. Just know they have no ice so no ice tea but their drinks are cold.

    Chicken Shawarma Plate
    Vanna T.

    Saw this new Mediterranean place right next to my fav sushi spot in Arcadia and decided to give it a try. Ordered the chicken shawarma plate which came with hummus, pita bread, garlic paste, and salad. The food was very yummy. Very friendly and nice service too. Will come back to try their other menu items.

    Chicken schwarma, basmati rice Greek salad pita bread.

    Ordered the chicken schwarma. Be prepared to wait a while. But the wait is worth it the chicken was flavorful and not dry. Delicious hummus and garlic sauce

    Came here because I had another fun plans down the street from here so I was thinking would be good to eat dinner beforehand It's located in a strip mall The place itself is not huge but they do have seating outside but it wasn't necessary as I was able to get the last table just before it closes which is a little early but the fact it was full inside was a good sign You can self order via a kiosk or you can as I later found out order with a person who in this case was also our server and he was nice and the food didn't take that long to come out Food was great and freshly made and hummus was thick but that garlic sauce was yummy Chicken coulda been little juicer but that's understandable when it comes to breast but the flavor was good! Those egg rolls were bomb! Clean place

    Chicken kabob plate with double salad.
    Jeff B.

    One reason I like Yelp is that it leads me to places like this when I'm traveling. In the mood for some Mediterranean fare near our hotel, I located Kababstik Mediterranean Grill on Yelp. It's a nice, comfortable location with plenty of parking. There are about six tables inside and a few outside. When we got there, all the tables were full, but we were fortunate that people at one table were just leaving, so we were able to get a table inside. You order from a kiosk and can, as we did, type in special requests. In our case, I ordered the Shrimp Grilled Plate and my partner ordered the Chicken Kabob Plate. We each asked for "double salad" instead of rice. The meals were excellent. The salad (lettuce, tomato, cucumber, red cabbage) was cold and fresh. There was an oil/vinegar dressing on the salad that was nice, but not overpowering. The shrimp (two skewers - 10 medium size shrimp total - a good portion) was well-seasoned and nicely grilled. My partners chicken was moist and flavorful. Each Plate came with a thin pita bread and healthy portion of hummus. I usually don't eat pita bread because it is thick and bready, but this was nice and thin. The food was delivered to the table by a friendly server. If we lived in the area, this place would be in our restaurant rotation.

    Tabbouleh Meduim $8.99
    Kim M.

    December 2025 - Party of two on a Thursday night. You order through a kiosk and they will bring the food to you. The place is small with about 4 or 5 tables. I love that they give complimentary Ceylon tea! Food/Pricing - Tabbouleh Meduim, $8.99 - Very good mix of sour and refreshing! Lamb Kabab Plate, $22.99 - On the pricier side but delicious nonetheless. Lamb was tender, tasty, and well seasoned. Chicken Kabab Sandwich COMBO, $15.99 - Chicken was juicy and tender. Sauce inside the wrap mixed well with the rest of the ingredients. Service/Ambiance - Friendly and prompt service. Parking - Plenty of parking in the plaza.

    Combo lamb and filet miñon kabobs on rice and salad with hummus.
    Mody M.

    The place was small but comfortable with limited outside sitting. Simple but nicely decorated with comfy seats. Food is reasonably priced and plate entrees are sizable. It's order your choice at a counter and pay at the same time. A server brings your food when ready. I wasn't able to finish my meal. I did not notice an ala carte list at the bottom of the placard menu. Meat was tender but just OK, nothing extraordinary. Salad was very good.

    The food was amazing and the service was 10 out of 10. You would highly recommend the chicken plate so bomb you won't regret it.

I called in a takeout order, and when I arrived, there was a new cashier. She was on her phone texting and didn't acknowledge us for quite a while, so we had to wait before being helped. When it came time to pay, I simply asked to confirm whether the cash discount had already been applied. Her response came with a noticeably rude attitude. While I was trying to find the exact change, she seemed visibly impatient. After receiving some coins I didn't need, I placed them in the tip jar. She immediately took them out and said in a very cold tone, "Please take it back, I don't need your tips." Honestly, that was surprising and quite uncomfortable -- it's the first time I've encountered such unfriendly service here. We still really enjoy the food and appreciate the owner, but I hope the service experience can improve moving forward.

    Wow!!!! I can't believe I have been going to Blossom Market Hall for years now and ONLY NOW just…read morediscovered Wahib's Mediterranean Express. But I can confidently say that after one meal here, I will be coming back~ Items ordered: 5/5 - Chicken Plate - Garlic Fries - Lamb Gyro Wrap - Baklava Everything here was freshly cooked and made to perfection. But my favorite dish was by far the chicken plate. Let me preface this first with a foodie confession. I'm usually not the biggest fan of chicken kebabs (I prefer beef). Most of the time I find them very dry and bland. However, after hearing from the owner's son that it is their best selling dish, I was convinced to try it. And it truly exceeded all my expectations! With each bite, the meat was packed with juicy, delicious flavor and just melted into my mouth. And with the combination of aromatic rice, grilled zucchini, and fresh hummus, my dad and I completely devoured our plate. Now it got me to thinking: what makes it so different from other places? Well, I actually learned that the owners import a special olive oil to infuse into all their meats, giving it a rich flavor without excess fat. Next time when I return, I'm definitely trying the beef kebab to compare! SERVICE: 5/5 Honestly some of the nicest, humblest, and friendly staff I've ever seen! They were able to answer my questions and offer suggestions, which I deeply appreciate as a foodie aiming to try the best of what each establishment offers. The location is quite convenient and inside Blossom Food Hall with other food vendors in vicinity. (I've actually came several times for ice cream and didn't realize how extensive it was). Seating is plentiful with bar seating and tables throughout the food court. Of note, because it's located on Mission Drive, parking may be limited during certain hours but there's a parking lot in the back. I didn't have an issue finding parking although I can see it easily getting packed on busier events. Overall, with its deliciously made food and fantastic service, they definitely earned me as a regular - and I'll bring the family this time

You would think the food would be piping hot since it's made fresh and required such a long wait...but no... Everything was lukewarm and the bread was cold. The salad consisted of lettuce and some marinated tomatoes that tasted sour. The hummus was very bland and the bread was thin, but soft. The Luhle (ground beef) was savory, but wasn't very juicy at all. The RICE, however, was very delicious. It was well seasoned and you can taste the different spices used to flavor it. Very earthy notes. Overall, very underwhelming experience. Mediocre and not worth the price or wait. Would probably not go back again. It's located inside Blossom Market Hall, so you order and seat yourself. Food will be ready when the buzzer they give you rings. Free street and lot parking available.
