Chicken
Ellen K.

Delicious and reliable lunch that reminded me a lot of Cava. To note, only the lamb is halal.

James L.

Food taste amazing and the vibe here is chill and I can watch my sports here in peace. The service is immaculate and the food comes out hot and ready. I enjoy coming here often when I have a chance

BYO Plate & the San Diego

Love this Mediterranean restaurant! Everything is great but the wraps are my fave! One wrap is about $15 but it could easily be split into two servings!!

Protein Bowl with Chicken Shawarma.
Melinda L.

Did a return visit to The Kebab Shop and the food was just as great as the first. This time, I ordered the Protein Bowl with the Chicken Shawarma and all the fixings with: Saffron Rice, Baby Greens, the Classic Bowl Toppings, with the added Feta Cheese, Tzatziki Dip, and the Fire Hummus. It was all so delicious and the portions are very generous. I also really like their Fire Chilli and Dill Yogurt, which you can actually get at the self-serve area by the soft drink machine. Trust me, you will keep going for more! The staff are pretty friendly, I really like the young lady that's there from my first visit, but my recent visit not much interaction from the staff or really a greeting. Just got my food, dined-in, and stepped out when I was done. Lots of parking either across or behind the shop.

TKS is one of my favorite Mediterranean fast casual spots around. This new location in Brea is situated in a great spot, offering ample parking and spacious dining options, both inside and on the patio. A variety of ordering options are available, including cashier, self-order kiosks, the website, and call-in. During a recent visit, I ordered the half-and-half bowl, which came with saffron rice and baby greens. My protein was the carved lamb and beef, my favorite. I also enjoyed a fountain drink and tried all the available sauces. The bowl was filled generously, as expected, just like at other locations I've been to. The meal was perfect for my appetite. The wraps are also a favorite menu item that are very filling and hearty. The fresh ingredients really stand out and satisfy the hunger. Overall, I enjoyed my meal, and the staff was friendly and hardworking. I definitely recommend and will continue to support this business. Until next time!!

10/10 bowls. No notes. Coming here again with my dog so he can try the amazing chicken shawarma!!

Bright, airy restaurant

If Mediterranean cuisine isn't the prettiest debutante at the ball, I don't know who is... Let your favorite Yelp Correspondent explain- Over the past few years there's been an explosion in the number of restaurants specializing in the lemony-garlicky cuisine of the Syrian/Lebanese/Turkish/Greek diaspora. To wit, within a ten-mile radius of my Diamond Bar home, I can choose from Georgie's Mediterranean, Doner G, Nick's Greek, Spitz, The Olive Pit, Jasmine Grill, Toasty's and DVine. All but the last two I've faithfully reviewed on Yelp. Entering the fray, buoyant after her triumphant run as a powerhouse of the San Diego Mediterranean scene, is TKS. The Kabob Shop. I wasn't super hungry, so I declined a bowl or platter option for a wrap, choosing Chicken Shawarma as my protein. The D-Wrap come dressed with pickled onions, red cabbage slaw, Romaine lettuce, saffron rice and your choice of two sauces: Their OG creamy yogurt sauce or a cilantro-jalepeño if you're seeking a stiffer kick. Pros: -Immaculately clean, airy, brightly lit environs that truly sing "Welcome Guests!" to visitors! -Clever, well-placed marketing- I ran the marketing division for two Fortune 100 global powerhouse firms...So imagine my pleasant surprise and nod of appreciation when I see a "Kebab Your Head to Our Handpicked TKS Soundtrack!" invitation with accompanying QR code for you to scan. Talk about ingenious marketing of your brand! Bravo! -Sacking the pita for a tortilla. Let's be honest, fellow Mediterranean wrap lovers, but the pita has always been an imperfect vessel, riiiiight?! Slightly too thick, crumbly, begins clumsily disintegrating into your anguished hands midway thru your meal. TKS smartly ditched the pita and turned its eyes westward from its Grecian-Syrian base towards Spain and pinpointed the FLOUR TORTILLA, toasted. The result is a snugly wrapped sando that'll stand up to the ministrations of your hands and mouth as you devour your meal. customer service- The young lady, a vivacious Asian woman with bright, cheery smile, was super gracious, asked if I had any questions and even hand-delivered my takeout bag to me when your hard-of-hearing correspondent didnt hear her call my order. Cons: -Only one. Kick up your condiment game, please. My wrap was, even with extra OG yogurt sauce, a little on the dry side. I had asked, up front, if they could apply mayonnaise to my wrap. No can do. So- For folks whose taste buds can't tolerate the jalapeño side of their cilantro-'pena sauce, please expand your available condiments. My bill was $15.51, incl taxes.

The shawarma was worth it!! It was bigger than my head. Everything in it was well flavored.

Liz G.

The wrap san diego style was fire. Analiz provided the greatest service offering to cut the wrap in half as well as giving extra sauce sides that were not self served. She was helpful in providing how it works menu wise as well as giving all the recommendations. 10/10 service for her! We went with the carved chicken which was perfectly moist and the right amount of seasoning. The fries were a nice touch inside tied with the rice and all the toppings that it could come with. Everything felt light but fulfilling. This location has plenty of parking and is located in a plaza with other walkable options. The place was clean, organized and had plenty of seating areas. They have self serve sauces you can grab either to dine there or to take out! I'd recommend coming back to check this place out!

tldr; clean restaurant with many different Mediterranean options - lovely and helpful staff :) Trying The Kebab Shop today after work. I decided to go with the wrap with the new grilled chicken shawarma, I added all toppings plus saffron rice and hummus. SERVICE 5/5 I was greeted by Angel, he was super accommodating and so nice. He took the time to explain the menu to me along with the different sauces they offer which I appreciated. I loved his energy! I would definitely come back again with friends and family. FOOD 5/5 Omg! This wrap was huge, the portions are incredible. I was able to split this into 4 pieces. It was so fresh, filling, and delicious. I loved their sauces, my favorites were the O.G. yogurt and the Cilantro Jalapeño. I liked the Fire Chili but it definitely has a kick to it. I really enjoyed the grilled chicken shawarma, it was so juicy. I want to come back to try more of the meat options. He also gave me dill yogurt dressing and a vinegar oil that usually comes with the salads but was soooo good on the wrap. Overall, this was such a healthy and tasty meal.

Beef plate $20ish
Grace K.

Super excited to have kebab shop in the north OC area! Upon walking in, you immediately get "brand new" vibes. Everything is clean, bright, and well... new lol They have kiosks available if you want to place your order directly, we chose to go to the counter and order with the employee. Analiz was super personable and took her time with reviewing our order (and explaining how the menu works). The menu works like a chipotle/Panda Express. Choose your meal type (wrap, bowl, plate) then your protein, sides, etc. Overall price point is decent depending on what you get. Personal opinion- plates are overpriced for what you're getting. We tried their beef plate (which is a up charge for beef) and their chicken wrap. The plate was about $20 and the wrap was about $15. We waited about 20 minutes for our order. They weren't super busy, had 2 folks working the kitchen, and 1 working the register. They did have folks picking up orders throughout so we understood there were more orders being fulfilled than for just the folks in the restaurant but, 20 minutes for casual cuisine is still too long. The true reason we come to the kebab shop is their sauce. The garlic sauce and cilantro sauce, addicting. You will want to drink this stuff. Overall, a good option for a quick casual meal. In a nice shopping center with Whole Foods, club Pilates, corepower yoga, coffee shops, and other restaurants. A bit pricey but, if you get the right items, still a solid choice!

The San Diego, with Shrimp, this is half! It definitely can be shared.
Tim C.

Ordered the San Diego with shrimp , excellent, comes with fries inside the wrap. Good service and great food.

Lamb gyro plate - delicious!
P K.

We came here for lunch and it did not disappoint!! Everything we ordered was delicious! I got the Chicken shawarma wrap which was so big and delicious!! The lamb gyro plate was so tasty my husband was fully satisfied! Falafel was soft inside and crunchy outside! Dips were all good! Our favorite was the OG yogurt and the cilantro jalapeños dip was perfect!!! Highly recommended!!

The food does taste good and the sauces are flavorful and easy to spread. However, there was too much rice and not enough meat in the plate.

We went here opening weekend during the morning hours and there was no one there. Not one other…read morecustomer walked in during our time here. It was honestly very sad to see as we had been seeing ads pop up places but with zero customers, not sure how they will continue operating. Also, almost half of their menu was not available at this time. The good: as we were the only customers, all staff were coming by to ask how things were. No crazy talking over people. The bad: The restaurant was fairly clean, but there were no hand towels in the women's bathroom. One of the four plates we received for our table had food on it. I wiped it down with a tissue. There is no tandoor setup at the moment. The menu is way overpriced for the quantity of food being served. Food: we ordered a mango lassi, bun kabob, daga kabob, chicken karahi, garlic naan, plain naan, and a paratha. Mango lassi - it was watered down. Missing real mango flavor and the tartiness of the yogurt. Bun kabob - this was fairly good. The egg with daal patty and onions with the chutney was authentic. It's a little pricey, though, for the size. Daga Kabob - this was the star of our experience. The meat was super tender and melt in your mouth with enough spice. But for $20 a plate, I am expecting a lot more. I would also suggest adding a tamarind or green chutney to complimemt this dish. I also found parts of this dish to be a little cold. I'm not sure why. Chicken karahi (half) - My husband liked this dish, but for me, it had too much of a homely taste. This is the type of karahi I make at home, so it wasn't anything special for me. Also, I didn't expect to be served 5 pieces of leg in one dish. They need to have a variety of peices of chicken. The spice level (we ordered spicy) was good. Naan - okay, so how do you open a restaurant and serve people naan out of a packet. I find this practice to be super irritating. It's not justifiable in any sense. I can go pick up from the local grocery store if I want this experience. Paratha - Again, this was a homestyle paratha. I feel like it was also a store bought vs. Hand-made, but I could be wrong. Overall, I think they need to either decrease their prices or increase their plate sizes. It is their opening weekend, and I wish them the best.

Being a weekend halwa puri is a must and we don't get authentic anywhere until we didn't find food…read morestreet halal cuisine.. I can't say enough how good it was.. the halwa was made in milk and aptly sweet and the cholay and aloo tarkari were perfectly complimenting it.. the aloo tarkari was achari aloo and it was bomb... the puri were crispy and well done... we had to order extra puri as it was soo good.. we ordered chicken tikka masala with plain naaan.. the tikka had the Smokey flavor of clay oven... and the gravy was nicely seasoned with mild spices (kid friendly) My husband tried their bun Kabab which was authentic Karachi style... and their chai was a cherry on the cake the ambiance is nicely done with frames of famous streets of Pakistan... They had a separate area it can host a good number of people at one go As far as the service goes the food is freshly prepared so there is a bit of wait but it's worth it it's truly a foodies delight Cant recommend this place enough

Could not have been happier. From the moment we walked through the heavy wooden door (fancy!) until we left- the host, the waitress, server, manager and even the owner were amazingly attentive and welcoming. When it's your birthday they put a nice sign at your table and everyone stops by to wish you an amazing bday. They also check in to make sure you're having a good time and enjoying your delicious meal. Now for the food: fresh, al dente and tasty. All adjectives you want running through your mind after the first bitesss. We ordered stuffed mushroom- hot and nicely seasoned. Mushrooms not overcooked and stuffing not overly cheesy. The shrimp linguine another hit with fresh tomatoes and jumbo shrimp with a nice snap. The light seasoning with lots of garlic was just perfect. We also ordered the beef short ribs. My friend said it melted on her mouth and the fresh mash potatoes- just right. Did I mention the portions were huge! Lots of goodies to take with us. To add to the dining experience we watched as patrons steadily came and went throughout the evening. You can tell this is a favorite for many. There were High-5s, handshakes and lots of "Welcome back friends!" Just an overall beautifully decked out neighborhood restaurant with so much heart and soul. I heard that the restaurant has been handed down from their grandparents... I'm sure they would be very proud. Highly recommend.
