Kebab Planet is definitely one of the best kebab spots I've tried. The highlight of the meal was the lamb chops--perfectly grilled over an open flame, incredibly tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. They were easily the best part of the meal. We also enjoyed the fresh bread, flavorful kebabs, and crisp salad. You can watch everything being cooked right in front of you, which adds to the experience and shows their commitment to freshness. The restaurant is clean, modern, and the staff is friendly and welcoming. If you're craving authentic Turkish/Mediterranean food, I highly recommend Kebab Planet. I'll definitely be coming back for those lamb chops. read more

My husband is Turkish so we decided to give this place a go since it's new. So far most of the places they are good at the beginning then the go south. The food was good it could be better by adding few things to dishes we ate. The owner very nice, welcomes you with a smile. They also have complimentary tea its Turkish tradition. We both had the lamb döner and lahmacun with fresh aryan (yogurt drink). read more

Drove 22 minutes here because this place markets itself as German-style döner, and unfortunately it was nowhere close. I asked for bread and received a wrap that ate more like a bad gyro burrito. The meat was dry, overcooked, and had an unpleasant flavor. The sauce was not the creamy white garlic sauce you expect from German döner; it was served on the side and tasted heavily of dill. Fries were poor, and for around $25 with a can of Coke, it was a major disappointment. If you are looking for anything close to döner in Germany, this is not it. read more

I was there 6/21 at 3p. Me being a Turk, I felt ripped off. This place is over priced, no vibe and does not represent the true Turkish cuisine. The menu and the pictures posted online are not representative of the food you actually get. Also, bad customer service. Avoid this place. read more

Friendly service. Homemade lemonade was tasty. Given in paper cups, not plastic or styrofoam - extra points. Beef sheesh kebab wrap took 10 min to make fresh for takeout. Unfortunately when we got home the wraps were about 1.5 cups of chopped lettuce and 4 standard cubes of sheesh kebab (1inch or less). My kids couldn't eat much as all they were getting was mouthfulls of salad that was spilling out. We ended up opening the wraps and taking out the 4 cubes of sheesh kebab so they could eat it. Had to make dinner at home as they were still hungry, of course. Lahmacun not flavourful, very little meat. Wraps listed as $11.99 but charged $15. Definitely not worth it for 4 pieces of meat and 1.5 cups of salad. First time here. Won't be back. Give 5 stars for lemonade and 5 stars for friendly service. read more

Food and service are really good! We ordered chicken kabob, carrot tarama, and ezme. They were all very good. I didn't even get a chance to take photos because I was too busy stuffing my face. Turkish pop is playing in the background but it's not too loud. There is ample seating and the restroom is clean. read more

Freshly made breads for the gyro sandwich. Also tried their babaganoush and eggplant with tomato called İmam bayıldı. Both very fresh and delicious. A new owner took over a few months ago and made a few changes. The decor and restaurant is very basic and simple at the moment, as it transitions from the old place to the new. read more

the food is so delicious! it reminds us so much of our trip to Turkey and the Mediterranean. The taste is authentic. warm greetings and worth the money. i recommend this kebab place. read more

Everything was so good the were so kind food was amazing thank you so much I really I appreciate it !

Honestly really disappointed in this place and I wanted to like it. From the moment I walked inside, the entire place smelled like cigarettes. Customer service was great and I won't knock them for being polite and respectful. The food was far from desirable. The pizza was literally inedible - and I don't want to sound rude, but I've had better frozen pizza, and this was also partially frozen as I saw the worker remove it from the freezer. The cheese was so packed on and it just tasted like cardboard. The chicken kebab sandwich was OK. I'd give it a 3/5. Flavor wasn't bad, but it was just not appetizing. I believe this place needs to be a bit more on top of sanitation and also not keeping the doors wide open when the owner & his friends are smoking right outside the door constantly. In the span of 30m that I was there, I can't tell you how many cigarettes were being smoked back to back and for the draft to just be sucked into the place. It's not the best experience for a customer. I just wanted to enjoy a really good halal kebab from here, especially since the other reviews were so positive. But I sadly won't see myself coming back. From the pizza to the kebab, it's just not worth it. Perhaps on a different day and time it would've been better, idk. But it just wasn't it this time. Again, customer service was wonderful. Owner seemed very nice and respectful, I know he did his best - but the rest of the experience was a shame. I hope they'll perhaps look into better quality to make this a better experience - or revise the menu. read more

Walked up and all the guys were smoking up a storm and smelled like cigarettes right as you walk in.. not a great first impression.. and then I open up my sandwich and boy was it a hot mess.. a lot of sauce and a lot of everything, for sure my appetite was turned off.. the Asian young girl seemed like she didn't like where she worked at but was trying her best so I'll give her that. When i buy food I want it make me dance in joy but this was disappointing. But all in all I wouldn't go here again.. read more

This is a new place in Lake Forest. It is very nice and clean and the staff is very attentive, friendly and helpful there. Plenty of seating inside with tables and barstools. The doner kebab is the star of the show: you can get it as a wrap, sandwich, burger style, or as a salad or on fries! They also have Turkish, German style pizza too! They have the famous German soda there and a variety of other drinks ! read more

Best kebab in Orange County!! Clean, plates has big portions, good food and good service! Kebab Planet you are the best!

Wow wow wow. I gotta say I happened on this place for their soft opening today. They are getting things together but this is authentic Kebab from Germany. They specially got their bread made with the same recipe from Germany it is delicious. Sooo amazing. I mean their Kebab meat is amazing and so fresh tasting. Their special sauce is so good!!! Cem is the owner and he's so excited to bring the world of Kebabs to the US. They are opening this Saturday (3/05) so plan on stopping by. You won't regret it! Can't wait to come back! read more

I ordered from Kebab Planet on Doordash since they had a buy one get one free deal, and this review will be about the kebab planet wrap with beef. I was so excited to have food from here because I absolutely love döner kebab. I regularly travel to Germany for work and am always so excited to have döner whenever I visit, and I recently visited Turkiye where I enjoyed the dish in the country it originates from. Unfortunately, I was left very disappointed with the kebab wrap here. I generally leave photos of my food on Yelp, but my kebab wrap was so incredibly soggy that the wrap opened up and fell apart when I opened it -- so, I didn't think it would be helpful to leave a photo. I recognize that the sogginess could have been due to the 15 minute drive time it took to get to me, so I want to disclose that my low rating is not due to the sogginess. The kebab wrap being soggy was already disappointing, but truthfully the main issue I had with my meal was the salt level. I generally tolerate a very high level of salt and enjoy my meals on the saltier side -- however, the beef gyros were WAY too salty. It was to the point where it was inedible for me... It's quite possible that whoever prepared my order made a mistake, but all in all my experience was unfortunately negative. I hate wasting food, but I had to throw both of the beef wraps away because the salt level made them inedible to both me and my partner. I do hope that this was a one time mistake for Kebab Planet, but with the plethora of fast Greek and Turkish options in the area I will likely be visiting other restaurants when I'm in the mood for kebab. read more

Kebab Planet is making fantastic, authentic food... but also the entire experience!!! Loved little details that stood out to me like their imported German sodas and traditional curry ketchup. But gosh, their doner kebab served any which way you like is STANDOUT. The pizza was truly immaculate. And their 3 specialty sauces are amazing on their own, but even better when combined. TOOOO good. I'll be back here again and again - what a hidden gem!!!! read more

Delicious food with good service. We like the vibe, the employees are kind and helpful, and our kids like the food options. Highly recommended! read more

I saw this place on Instagram and had to try it out. IT'S AMAZING. The food quality is top notch, and dare I say, the best doner in Orange County? The restaurant was clean and sanitary. The employees were friendly and efficient My food came out very fast and they served it to me with a big smile. I will definitely go back. 5 STARS!!! read more

Amazing food quality, a really great dining experience. I used to live in Turkey for a year and haven't been able to find a Turkish restaurant that tastes the same as Istanbul here but this place is definitely it. The food is amazing and it feels very traditional. The service is great and very friendly. read more

Greeted at the door. Hospitality was great. Ordered the grilled chicken kebab entree. Was delicious!

Our first time trying Kebob planet after seeing their IG post and unfortunately it missed the mark for us. Starting with the positive, great portion size on the sandwich. Fresh ingredients. Unfortunately the kebobs were extremely SALTY and dry, especially the chicken. Even though there were plenty of fresh veggies accompanying the meat it was not balancing the heavy amount of salt and salt was all that we tasted. It was pretty much inedible. So unfortunately it's a pass for us and won't be going back. read more

A charming little hole on the wall Mediterranean sandwich and pizza shop in the strip mall at Lake forest. Being a resident of the city, I did not even know they were around until I accidentally came into the center. It was a great surprise, they have some really good doner sandwiches, plates, wraps and doner pizza (which is the first time seen or heard of). It is owned by a very nice family that runs and operates the place. I'm always supportive of places like this, I got their original doner combo with fries and a drink. They make them fresh there on a skewer and serve it to you. The portion was huge and filling, so you really get the bang for your buck. Flavor wise, it was on point, they really take care of you and make sure you have all the sauces and add-ons you want on your meal. Truly hope this place does well. I'll definitely come back to try some doner pizza someday. read more

I used to drive half an hour to come here all the time, but they changed their menu and I will no longer be going out of my way to come here. They took the sandwich, which was their best item, off of the menu. Bring it back and you will bring back your customers. read more

The service was good, two men ready to give the there best, lit up when we interned the dinner. the price is right and the food very tasty. My wife and I got two Doner sandwich I got beef and wife had the chicken. We took them home and the sauce was great. The bread was fresh and all the garnishes just right. . The protein portion (meat) was perfect. It was overall a good deal. Though there wasn't any sides like fries it was still perfect. The price is above fair. When I seen the other reviews. They complained it was soggy, in my opinion if you don't eat it then or within 15 min. Just like any other sandwich of course it will get soggy. Because the other use oil. Everything in my order was just right. My wife was content!! read more

Great place with doner kebab that tastes like the ones you get from Europe with the same quality! The kebabs are packed with flavor, and you can really taste the authenticity in each bite. The service is excellent, and we were greeted with a warm welcome as soon as we walked in. You can taste the freshness in their food, from the crisp vegetables to the perfectly cooked meat. Highly recommend for anyone craving a genuine European doner kebab experience! read more

Just had a great experience here! I'm not sure what the old reviews are talking about but the food was delicious, and so flavor packed! The portions was also huge and for $10 a sandwich (as of May 2024) - That can't be beat. I recommend this hidden gem! Also I feel like there's so much misconception on what a kebab originated from. I haven't explored the world enough but there's a lot I know out there I haven't experienced so I'm glad this is in our community! //CONTEXT// I ordered in person because I had to go back to work on a Friday at like 2 pm. It wasn't too crowded. //ENVIRONMENT// This is a fast casual place. Order up front and sit down or takeout! Very clean and good for lunch or small groups! //FOOD// I got the organic chicken donor and it was delicious! I combined all the sauces and the fillings and it was so amazing! Packed with flavor - and loved the sauce!! The portions were so big and for $10? Wow! //SERVICE// The lady at front was so nice! So was the cook! Overall I'll be back and letting my friends know: a hidden gem in Orange County read more

My husband, who is from Europe, has gone to lengths to find a local German style kebab shop and finally, we have found it with Kebab Planet! We always get the classic doner sandwich with beef and all the sauces and all toppings. It's a hefty sandwich nestled nicely into a sesame bread (which we were told they make). My picky toddler loves the doner fry box, which is freshly fried French fries layered with beef. I highly recommend Kebab Planet! We are repeat customers and will continue to be. read more

This is my favorite new restaurant in Lake Forest.

FIREEEEEEEEE For real, they had some hiccups in the beginning but the staff and cooks are Turkish now. You're not going to get a better Doner in this area.
