Too bad it's far from my house otherwise I would go here more often. The food is delicious! The service can use some help though. Special dishes here are the biryani and haleem. I get a small tub of haleem to go and have it for breakfast as a comfort dish. The kabob platter is great also read more

Happy to have tried out this small business for lunch on a weekday. Not busy at all, got served fairly fast. I ordered their chicken reshi and garlic naan and was super surprised by the size of their portions! Could definitely eat things family style. Everything we ordered tasted pretty good! Lots of different spice flavors. I think I enjoyed my friends chicken tikka masala more than my dish as the chicken in mine was a bit drier but overall still tasty. read more

The food was not good, but the service was even worse. With the exception of the young lady waiting on us, who was very sweet and courteous, the experience was atrocious. The food took much longer than we were told when we ordered takeout. And when it finally came, the owner very rudely accused us of not having paid. Would not recommend. read more

Kebabish - desi chicken BBQ platter and Biriyani - Pakistani Near Me - San Diego, California

Kebabish is in the same plaza where Natsumi Sushi & Seafood Buffet (formerly Savory Buffet) is located. The suite used to be a flower shop. It was neatly decorated and had a dining capacity for about 40 customers. You had to walk past a long internal window to the left that showed the kitchen preparation area before you encountered any seating. Parking spaces were rather limited in the shared lot out front so finding a spot could be difficult during meal times. I was in the Miramar area to run an errand and stopped by for an afternoon meal. At the time, a special lunch time menu offered a choice of one 'Curry & Salan' item, one BBQ item, one Vegetarian item, white basmati rice, a basket of plain naan, and a fountain drink for a discounted price. I chose the following... * Aloo Keema - Ground beef, potatoes, herbs & spices * Aloo Palak - Curried spinach and potatoes with melted butter * Chicken Reshmi Boti - Barbequed boneless chicken marinated in a blend of yogurt, herbs & spices The server never asked what spice level I wanted for my dishes. I guess he assumed mild because that was how they were prepared. I probably would have requested that end of the spiciness scale anyways. What stood out from these choices was the chicken. Normally, I encounter boneless chicken that is overcooked and dried out at many South Asian cuisine restaurants. That was not the case here as the chef did an excellent job of barbecuing the meat while retaining sufficient moisture. My one concern was the serving size of the two Aloo items. They each came in a vessel that was smaller than I had hoped. The flavors were good, but the quantity should have been increased as part of the lunch time promotion. Besides that, the rest of my experience at Kebabish was at a four star level. read more

I came here on a rainy night with some friends as we were craving some Pakistani food. We got several curries, naan, and rice. The rice and meats were average, but the curry was good. We got both garlic naan and original naan, both of which were really fluffy yet crispy, probably the best textured naan I've had yet! The restaurant itself was clean and the staff did their job well. If you're in the mood for Pakistani food, definitely try Kebabish. read more

I was really looking forward to trying Kebabish since it's so highly rated on Yelp and Google. I was kind of disappointed in the food. I had a large group of 10 people and we got there around 5:30pm on a Friday. The place is small but we weee able to get seated since we beat the dinner rush. The restaurant felt a little dirty to me and it seems like a place I'd rather get takeout from. The service was fine since we were one of the first ones there for dinner. We ordered many of the dishes but nothing really stood out to us. The kababs were okay but we felt like they were lacking some flavor. read more

The cuisine is superb! The team members are amiable and accommodating. There are abundant parking spaces

The food. They advertise Pakistan and Indian cuisine, but when you get the menu there is NOTHING that's Indian! I asked the waiter about four basic Indian dishes and he told me he had never heard of them - I only asked for Vindaloo, Madras type dishes and he told me they only serve Pakistan food. I then asked him for a very spicy curry. When I received it there was no spice/heat to it so he gave me a bottle of Siracha!!! Need I say more!!!! This place is just a hole in the wall that doesn't know WHAT they're serving! read more

Completely unacceptable and disrespectful. They took our order at 8:19 PM and didn't serve us until 9:00 PM, closing time. As soon as the food came out, staff aggressively started mopping, cleaning bathrooms, and opening doors while it was cold, clearly trying to force us out. The food was cold, the place looked dirty, and the staff was rude and unwelcoming. When we complained, the owner got defensive and argumentative instead of taking responsibility. If you don't want customers late, don't take late orders. Don't waste your time or money--this place has zero professionalism or respect for customers. If I could give them zero, I would. read more

Horrible customer service. First nothing in their website menu indicates that dishes are spicy Hot. Really? Second we order a chicken Roll and a lentil Soup via Uber eats. The food came in a plastic bag with nothing on it, no spoon, no napkins nothing. The roll was rolled in a silver paper and as we unwrap the paper the entire thing is covered with sauce so our hands were completely soaked in sauce, and after just two bites we had to throw the food away because of the hot spice we could not stand. Lousy service from all aspects. DO NOT RECOMEND. read more

There are so many Desi restaurants in Miramar but this has to be my fave by far. I've come here for Eid dinner with my family and our friends and they were able to accomodate for our group of 20+ people so YES this place is great for big groups. We ordered multiple dishes and did family style as a group and still went home with leftovers because of how much food it was! Everything on the menu was delicious just be prepared with a glass of milk or some yogurt because it is spicy! They get their halal meat from Harris Ranch which if you've been to NorCal before, you know it's the best meat in the state and of high quality! The customer service here is good and they're super responsive on IG. I was trying to order a turkey charga for Friendsgiving through Instagram but wanted it a couple days early and they were able to do that for me! So I went ahead and ordered the turkey charga for the Friendsgiving and it was a hit. It was soooo juicy and seasoned so well, and spicy hehe. I had never had a turkey like this one before but it's definitely going to become something I plan on ordering again in the future. Overall delicious food, great customer service and good location. I will def be back! read more

Picked up takeout today. Spent more than $100 on food. It was super stale. So disappointed, this place used to be my fav.

We tried the Chicken Reshmi Boti, Chicken Karahi, and Chicken Kebab Roll. While the Reshmi Boti was decent, the Karahi and Kebab Roll were incredibly underwhelming, both lacked flavor and tasted bland. Given the amazing reviews, I had high expectations, but the experience fell flat. To top it off, the Kebab Roll was served on a paper plate at a sit-down restaurant, which felt out of place and added to the disappointment. read more

Not so great. The place was totally empty (5pm) and it still took forever, which is cool, I only mention just in case you happen to be in a hurry, I was not, and yet the Nann (bread) was served stone cold to my table, how embarrassing, it was not busy, I'm the only one in this establishment. No thank you 4 me, and no goodbye after the dude asked how everything was. Guess he did not enjoy my observations. So many choices on Miramar extremely better and less than a mile away. Can't honestly see this place still in business by Mid-2024 at the latest. read more

I went with my big group of friend on Friday to explore the food in one of hidden restaurant in Miramar, San Diego. This place seems to be not very well promoted in the desi group by the management. One of the best quality of this restaurant which I liked is serving food time, it was very fast and everything was really fresh.. Best dishes which I liked is Kebab and Nihari .. Awesome service!! Cheekmar Taste!! Decent good Ambiance!! Very neat restroom!! read more

Stumbled across this place visiting the golf store next door. From the outside it looks a little sketchy but once inside we were greeted warmly by the nicest gentleman. The menu was pretty simple, the pictures helped. We ordered some pretty basic items- chicken tikka, beef kebabs, garlic naan etc. The food took a little longer than usual for a quick service casual type of place but once it arrived it came out sizzling hot! The chicken was a bit dry I think next time I would opt for chicken korma which is more of a curry with no bones to deal with. The beef kebab was good super moist with a lot of spices. I also got the mango lassi to try but it wasn't that great. The color was off it was bright orange. Overall, good food and nice service. I would actually come back and try some of their curries and lamb! read more

Big space for parking. Def do surprise you when you enter, because it doesn't look that much from outside. The cool first thing is you can watch as the food is made through a window. So tandoori naan as they enter the hot tandoor was cool to watch for both the small and elder kids. Some of us adult thought also it was fun to watch how they balance the dough from and area to another to make the naan. The staff was attentive and courteous. But the food was the best! We went there twice and they didn't disappoint us! We def will recommend this plaice. read more

I took a late lunch today and was able to get a to-do order (their Yelp listing said they open at 12:30 pm). It was about 1:30 pm when I arrived, and it was pretty empty. It was, however, pretty hot. I said something about air conditioning, but the waiter didn't say whether or not they had any or if it was broken. So keep that inind as the Miramar Road area can get pretty hot during the day. This is a sit-down and order restaurant, but I asked about take-out and was given a menu, after I was greeted as soon as I entered. There's a big, long window where you can see into the kitchen that I thought was pretty cool. I ordered the Chicken Reshmi Boti (thighs) and a side of basmati rice ($1.00); my total with tax was $15.07. The server said it would be about 10 minutes, but my order came out faster than that. It was packaged very nicely for transportation and included paper plates, napkins and utensils. The bag of food felt quite heavy, and I think it was a good portion for the price, especially the rice. There was also a yogurt sauce on the side. Everything was delicious. The chicken was tender and well-seasoned, with a hint of heat. Kebabish is in a strip mall with plenty of parking. I'll be back! read more

This place is slowly becoming a staple for me. I've ordered the Lahori Chargha to go, which surprisingly help up well and didn't get soggy or a weird texture for not being eaten right away. They have some yogurt chutney on the side which is always a favorite, it's spicy and refreshing and goes perfectly with the chicken. I just wish I had a bucket of it. I came here for dinner the first time I tried this place, and the chicken boti was really good. The meat was tender and flavorful. I was a little irritated the first time I came because I ordered garlic naan and they brought plan naan, and this was after waiting 30 minutes for someone to remember I was here and to take my order. I'm glad I came back for a second chance. I got the halwa puri for brunch and it was the perfect portion and perfectly seasoned. The halwa wasn't overly sweet and the chole was spicy. The puris were fresh and soft. Inside it is spacious with mostly booth seating. There are some tables. I haven't seen it super busy so I hope business keeps up as I would love to see more Pakistani restaurants after we lost Casa Lahori. The parking lot is shared with a Starbucks and some house remodeling places like much of Miramar. read more

This is one of the only places in SD that serves Pakistani cuisine and they have some dishes we haven't found anywhere else. One of their special dishes is Lahori Chargha. They marinate and steam a whole chicken, then they marinate it again and fry it. So you get a chicken that's crunchy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and sooooooo flavorful. They have many dishes that are also familiar to #indiancuisine but you will see #beef and #halal options. They do have #vegetarian as well. We feasted on: Milk Tea Mango Lassi Shami Kebab (mix of lentils & beef grilled patty) Samosas Chicken Tikka Masala Mutton Karahi Beef Nihari Lahori Chargha (fried chicken) Chicken & Beef Seekh Kebab (ground meat) Tikka & Reshmi Boti (sizzling grilled chicken) Chicken Biryani We had enough for dinner AND lunch & dinner the next day too! But the variety was enough that it kept our taste buds HAPPY! read more

Delicious food with different spices and the service is good. The Ambience is okay but the food is unbelievably delicious.

The food here was amazing! Everything was cooked to order! I couldn't believe it! Even the rice was cooked fresh when i ordered it! The food was similiar to indian food but being a Pakistani restaurant, the food was even more delicious than any indian restaurant I had ever eaten at. The Chaney, which is like Channa Masala, but 10 times better, is a must try, in my opinion! Even the spices they used on their version of Tandori Chicken was very flavorful and more delicious than any Tandori Chicken I had ever had before. After eating here, I definitely want to explore.more Pakistani food. Also, the waiters here were so friendly and very attentive! I would highly recommend this place, especially if you like flavorful food! I would describe the food I ate as semi-spicy with perfectly balanced flavors, making.it an incredibly delicious eating.experience for both me and my husband! If you like the flavor profile of indian food, but with even more delicious flavors that stand out, I feel confident you will love this place! read more

Amazing food, loved this great place that serves up such flavorful authentic Pakistani dishes! We tried the beef seekh kebabs, chicken boti kebabs, mutton pulao and mutton korma.

Helloooooo Yelpers! Okay so long story short, the hubby and I have been looking for a delicious Pakistani/Indian Restaurant in North or South county for 2 years now! We found it, and if you're reading this review, you too have now found it! (Leveling up much?!?) Kebabish is DELICIOUS! This is our second time having it in a full week. I highly recommend the chicken biryani, the quality of meat is perfection (no bones, all white or dark meat, but boneless)! That is a must for me, as I am a Biryani lover but the bone in meat definitely throws me a curveball. (Also, my toddler loved their Biryani and was the reason why we came back so quickly.. so kid approved.) The chicken tikka masala is also scrumptious! Living in the city of San Diego we've tried our fair share of over priced Indian joints and they all amounted to 2 star chicken tikka masalas. Kebabish has an AMAZING 5 STAR chicken tikka masala that pairs absolutely well with their fresh tandoori naan. I must add separately that their naan is delicious! Condiments on point, so is their safe packaging and nearly touch less pick up (writing review during COVID of course). The location itself is clean and well kept, we are looking forward to becoming regular for take out, and one day God willing take in too! As my followers know, I am very particular when I give 4 or 5 star reviews so don't take my review lightly. This place is a must try, even if you have to drive a bit from the city (like us), or North County. The owner/ manager is very friendly and will assist you when ordering, so don't be afraid of asking questions and making revisions to your dish.. they're open to suggestions and nice to interact with. Here's to more yummy eats and more nearly-perfect to perfect reviews! S read more
