Saw the DDD episode and was in El Paso for business. Great food and warm service.The beef koobideh was delicious.

From out of town visiting for the week. Got a recommendation to try TK. Service, food, price, and menu makes this locally owned restaurant a home run. It's officially on my El Paso rotation. read more

Great food and service very authentic reasonably priced Nice atmosphere great people work there

It's not in doner in Europe, but still good. The prices are okay in regards to portions.

I have been to this restaurant before and liked the food. So, on Sunday, I took two of my friends with me for dinner. When we went in we started to sit down. A woman, the owner, came up to us and started telling us all the food that they were out of because it had been a busy day, etc, etc. After all of this she then told us see closed at 7 pm. It was 6:55 pm. Now, keep in mind that there were several tables that were occupied and the diners were no where near finishing their dinner. By this time, my friends realized that she was just trying to get rid of us. If she had told us that the kitchen was closed, that would be that, but we had to listen to a litany of what food she was out of,which made us think that she could serve us. Such poor business practice. She would have won customers for life if she had said, I can make you this or that, but no. My other comment is that it is not my problem that she doesn't know how to order supplies for her business. read more

Had their doner kebap beef sandwich. Service was prompt and courteous. Sandwhich was of good quality and tasty. Price was a little steep for a shaved meat sandwich but if you like doners you will enjoy read more

Tasty Kabob - Persian/Iranian Near Me - El Paso, Texas

We ate the bone-in chicken kabob with basmati rice. The chicken was tender and perfectly seasoned! The appetizer was doner and chips was also very good! Our server, Cooper, was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, even as more customers came in to eat. We are coming back to taste the hummus which people have raved about. read more

Every time we've order from them they've delivered. Their food tastes amazing and always cooked to perfection. It's clear they are passionate about sharing their love of food with the community. If I had to recommend anything it is: Olive Pide. I am so in love with their tapenade and the breading they use. A carb lovers dream because it's crusty and flaky and the olive tapenade is great flavor! read more

Ate at Tasty Kabob today and highly recommend. Had hummus as a appetizer it was amazing. For lunch I had the beef koobideh and my wife had the doner kebap sandwich. Both our meals were delicious. Meat was extremely flavorful, cooked perfect. I wish I saved room for dessert but that will have to wait for next time. If your looking for a change of food from the El Paso norm I strongly encourage you to try this place out. Staff is super friendly, place is clean, and food is amazing. read more

Best kabob place in El Paso the owners are super awesome and attentive. I like how they have their own bakery now and that they offer some products. Their food is absolutely delicious and well priced. The place is clean and their staff is great. Definitely a place to go. read more

Food its very good. I'm familiar with the dishes because I'm married to an Iranian and have learned the food. I would've like them to offer cheese, bread and herbs for starters without having to request it . It was brought after but barely had any veggies. The Ghormeh Sabsi on crispy Tadigh (rice) was delicious. No so much the ground beef kabab. Was a bit dry. Heshi the owner was always checking and making sure it all was good. Hope they do well! read more

I left El Paso for several months and all kinds of things happened, including the opening of a great little Persian restaurant. Who would have thunk it? In El Paso? A group of us, mostly at UTEP, have longed for a good, authentic Iranian restaurant. Those longings have been answered by Tasty Kabob, a modest and unassuming restaurant serving homemade recipes of the owner, Eshi Hendry. TK is not a fancy place, but the food is real, the service is good, and the TV shows Iranian programming. I lived in Dubai for two years, and ate Iranian food at least two or three times weekly. The rest of the time I ate Indian and Lebanese cuisine. If you have a hankering for Persian food, I recommend Tasty Kabob. read more

This was our second time eating there. We ordered take out and the food was fresh and delicious. I loved the dolmas and the chicken kabobs. The rice is well cooked. We will definitely be back! read more

Wow! This place is nestled in a little corner right next to Lloyd's pub on Thunderbird and the food is plentiful and very tasty -it is Persian food and totally amazed at the robust flavoring! Service is great too! read more

Very hospitable staff from the moment you walk in the door. This place is so clean it sparkles. The tables are spaced out well with simple but inviting decor. I tried the Ghorme Sabzi for my first visit. The beef was tender and perfect for the stew itself. Couple with this the beautiful and generous helping of basmati rice and you have a filling meal. I'll be back soon to try dinner--probably the taste of Persia--and close it out with the Persian sweets on the menu. They do offer a limited selection of beer and wine for those who enjoy a drink with their meal. read more

Tasty Kabob - The Chicken Kabob Salad and Doner Kabob Plate lived up to the "Tasty" name! - Persian/Iranian Near Me - El Paso, Texas

Having eaten in Mediterranean and mid-east restaurants I was extremely disappointed in the quality and amount of food provided. My wife had 3 small pieces of meat in her relatively large rice dish. My meal was bland. Not recommended. read more

Incredible staff who invited my children to see how the bread was made and turned on their DDD episode for us! Delicious food.

What a wonderful little gem hidden away in El Paso. My husband is from Germany and has been craving Döner Kebab but it has been extremely difficult to find locally. When we saw this restaurant on Yelp we couldn't pass up the chance to check it out. The food was amazing, very flavorful with just the right amount of spice. The side dishes were amazing too, from the basmati rice to the French fries. Then there was the owners of the restaurant. They were extremely friendly and came to speak with us after we ate. The owner/chef even brought us out an additional plate of meats to taste! All in all, it was a very enjoyable dinner! Take a chance and try this place, you will not be disappointed. read more

Never in my life have I been to the same restaurant in the same day for lunch and dinner, nor have I been the first and last customer of the day. Easily this has become a one of a kind restaurant I need to visit often in El Paso, and one I would highly recommend everyone check out. I decided to check this out on my birthday, and the main reason was because it was new and Yelp described it as Persian/Iranian food. Since I am Arab this definitely intrigued me. It is also a small business which I am strongly supportive of. The interior really does not stand out to you but my brother fell in love with all of the Persian pictures they had on the walls. Although this place easily ranks 5 stars because of the owners and the food is just downright to die for. We were instantly greeted by the owner upon sitting down. Her name is a bit complicated so I do not want to attempt to butcher spelling it. She asked us if this was our first time and after finding out it was she explained what the food was like and its history. She also provided us with a sampler that had a portion of their appetizers on the menu served with bread and torshi. What also impressed me is that it came with fresh basil from the owners garden. I absolutely love that little touch when someone is putting in food they grow themselves into their dishes. The appetizers were delicious and I would recommend if you want to try out the range of appetizers they have available. My family and I decided to try the Tour of Persia so we can get a good taste of a lot they had to offer. The Tour of Persia serves 3-4 people is only $40 and at that price I think it is definitely worth trying. It comes with Chicken Kabob (Bone-In), Soltani, Beef Koobideh, Ghorme Sabzi, and Dill & fava bean rice or Basmati rice. Everything was absolutely incredible but what really surprised me is I am not a fan of chicken yet the way they make their chicken here, it is an absolute delicacy. The rice was also very different to what I'm used to but it was so flavorful with a variety of spices that I just could not get enough. Beef Koobideh, Ghorme Sabzi, and the Soltani were equally amazing. Like I could not find anything I did not like. The meal was super filling. The owner also graciously provided us with a small dish of their Doner Kebap which is a Turkish-German beef from the rotisserie with their signature Tasty Kabob sauce which the owner makes herself. Let me tell you it's like yogurt but a yogurt you would die for and honestly I think it can go with anything. I am interested in taking some home and trying it with my steaks. The Doner Kebap instantly became my favorite thing on the menu. This beef is so tender and delicious, it will make your mouth water thinking about it after you have tried it. This is my must try recommendation if you come here. It was a must try that when my family and I came back for dinner; my brother and I ordered the Doner Kebap Sandwich, and my mother ordered the Doner Kebap Salad. The Doner Kebap sandwich comes with your choice of Turkish-German chicken or beef (I have not tried the chicken, my recommendation is beef) on telera roll with veggies and the Tasty Kabob sauce. It is essentially the perfect sandwich I tell you, and you will be stuffed. I want to go back at this very moment, but I need to finish this review. My mother's order was the Doner Kebap Salad which is a tossed house salad with Doner kebab, feta cheese, cabbage, tomato, and cucumber. It looks amazing and tastes amazing. If you do not want that telera roll bread, the salad is definitely the way to go. We decided to order the cheesecake for dessert and we also wanted to try the baklava. The owners explained to us that they did not have it at the moment because the baklavas they ordered were not up to their expectations. I am absolutely impressed by this, there have been many times places I go to just put out whatever comes out of their shipment even if it does not taste good. For this owners to take the time to examine the baklava and make sure it fits the Tasty Kabob image, I praise them for ensuring customers love their food. We also ordered hot tea on the side and the owners shared with us a tidbit that they put the cube of sugar in their mouths while drinking the tea. We tried it and it definitely is a different experience. Not one that I will do all the time, but it will not be the last time. Twice in one day we came here and both times we left with rave reviews and really happy stomachs. Please take the time to support the Tasty Kabob. The owners can provide an amazing conversation, and the food is to die for. Definitely an experience you must try. We found this place by accident just because I wanted to try something new for my birthday, and honestly they made my birthday with all the laughs, providing a great time for my family, and making my stomach really happy. read more

Excellent food and service! The weekend hours are different than what is listed on Yelp. Saturday until 10 pm, and Sunday until 8 pm. The Doner kabob sandwich was one of the best things I have eaten in El Paso in a while. read more

Fantastic and authentic Persian cuisine. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, even when just ordering for take out. I noticed they're open late on Friday and Saturday, and there's nothing better than a doner kabob sandwiches after you've had a couple beers at the bar. Although the interior is very casual and nothing fancy, I still give this place 5 stars because the kabob meat is so soooooo good and the staff are as friendly and hospitable as any place I've ever been. I'm also all about local delicious ethnic cuisine restaurants opening up in El Paso, and Tasty Kabob is definitely that. Give it a try and you'll be glad you did, and if you have any questions as to what to get, ask the owner/chefs and I'm sure they'll be more than happy to point you in the right direction. read more

We were craving mediterranean food and what were used to is the plates with rice and salad which is why I chose this place plus the good reviews! We picked up our two chicken kabob plates plus the appetizer mirza ghasemi. The chicken kabob was moist and the perfect combination with the salad and rice! I enjoyed eating the chicken with the mirza ghasemi but my husband was not a fan of the mirza ghasemi and said the chicken and rice combo was a little dry. I forgot to ask for garlic sauce which would have made the entire meal so much better but that's my bad! Overall, I would definitely go back and try different dishes!! Can't wait! read more

Tasty kabob was my first time try. I had boneless chicken kabob which was very soft chicken pieces marinated with mild spices and cooked over skewers. The saffron rice along with it was a great combination. The butter added good taste to the chicken. Persian icecream is a must try dessert which was a blend of saffron, rose milk and pistachios. read more

Fantastic place. Wonderful food. Friendly service. It is the proverbial hole-in-a-wall on the west side of El Paso. On Thunderbird off of Mesa. Take the Sunland Park exit once it opens up again following the construction. We some great appetizers and main dishes. I had the beef Doner Kabob. The meat was thinly sliced and cooked to perfection. The older hostess was pleasant and welcoming and the young waitress was friendly and helpful with teaching us about the food. For dessert: try the Persian ice cream. Unique taste and texture. We will be back for more! read more

Tasty Kabob is YUMMY YUMMY for my tummy!!! This is a small restaurant inside the same shopping complex as the Burlington. My wife and I went there for lunch one day and we absolutely loved it. The food was very flavorful and the server was incredibly nice. They bring you some toasted pita bread to munch on while you wait. I would definitely recommend a stop here, and we absolutely will be going back! read more

We have been here a few times and Tasty Kabob never disappoints. The last time we were there was right before the COVID shut down and the owner showed us the area they were expanding to. Went back tonight and dined in the new area. Mr. Owner was so nice and welcoming, bringing us hot fresh bread...delicious. Our server was amazing. They also gave us a feta plate served on a bed of mint. Wow! Food was great, per usual...I have enjoyed everything that I have ordered. So far, my favorite is the Koobideh, however my son's lamb chops smelled amazing and I am not a lamb fan. Mr. Owner (I wish I had thought to ask his name), came out several times to chat with us, which was nice and we felt appreciated. He even made us fresh bread to go. How cool is that? Tasty Kabob has also been featured on Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives, so that should tell you something too. read more

I was bummed when the Jerusalem place changed everything, including menu and prices. So I was looking to something similar close by. Tasty Kabob appeared on the suggestions and I decided to try it. OMG this place is so worth it!!! I ordered take out and my food was ready within the timeframe they told me it was gonna be ready. When I got there the owners were serving the costumers. The place is cozy and the owners are super friendly. They made me feel at home! The menu prices are reasonable and their food is super addictive!! If I could I would give it more than a 5 stars. I will definitely come back! read more

Visited on the advice of Food Network's Guy Fieri. Was very disappointed. Hummus lacked garlic and lemon. Husband had chicken koobideh. The chicken marinade was tasty but the chicken was dry. His salad was tasty and he enjoyed the basmati rice. I had the lamb shank with dill and favs bean basmati rice. The lamb was fine, not memorable. The rice was good. All in all, underwhelmed. read more

Tasty Kabob pretty much tastes like any average Middle Eastern restaurant. There's nothing particularly good or bad about the food, it's just so-so and doesn't live up to the hype from Guy Fieri. Actually there was one thing that I did not care for and it was the fried dough ball dessert that tasted like they were fried in rancid oil and then left to refrigerate until they were ordered. read more
