    First time trying The Kebab Shop after hearing so many good things about it! Came by for dinner on the weekend and there was no wait to order at the kiosk, which was nice. I ordered the wrap and this thing was MASSIVE lol, definitely bigger than the photos, but no complaints here! The ingredients tasted super fresh and the spreads were so bomb. It had the perfect balance of meat and veggies. We also got the fries and they did not disappoint either. As a first timer, I had to compliment the cooks because the meal was honestly that good. Highly recommend checking this place out if you haven't already. I'll definitely be back for more!

    We came and we conquered! We are so famished we ordered 2 plates (usually my friend and I share) The parking is at the back of the restaurant, you have to walk to an alley before you can get through the main entrance of the store. We ordered 2 plates, mine is the beef kebab and my friend got the carved lamb beef. We both enjoyed our food and the dippings too. Nice place at the heart of Fremont. Come and try for yourself!

    My wife, son and I decided to go to The Kebab Shop for lunch yesterday. It's been a while since we'd been there. We decided to dine-in, since we were out shopping and stopped for lunch. The restaurant hadn't changed much, but they no longer have their sauces out so you can help yourself. All 3 of decided to order Wraps. My wife and I enjoyed their Grilled Wrap with Safron Chicken, while our son ordered the Grilled Wrap with Chicken Shawarma. I enjoyed their amount of Yogurt and Cilantro Lime Sauces. It was the right amount and had just the right amount of kick to it. The restaurant was clean and the staff were helpful and friendly. The Wraps were larger than I remembered, which was a nice treat. The Chicken was grilled nicely and was flavorful. My wife and I weren't able to finish our Wraps, so we brought them home to enjoy at a later time.

    I learned about this place from my workplace when they ordered chicken, pita, rice , hummus and salad. They were all good. So I decided to go back with my daughter. She loved the falafel and rice. The lamb wrap taste good but will not order again. The meat in it was not enough, it felt like I ordered a veggie wrap with some meat.

    Lost its yummy flavor. Totally Flavorless Very sad that a lot of things changed since I was last there. The wrap contents barely had any chicken... and was very bland/blah.... it was mostly filled with cabbage.... The wrap itself was chewy - and the sauces have completely lost zing flavor! OG Garlic Sauce - had zero garlic flavor and was very runny. It used to be thick and garlicky Cilantro Jalapeño Sauce - no taste of cilantro or jalapeño.... It was just plain green colored liquid. This used to have a tangy heat. Fire Chili Sauce - had zero heat and was runny... it too was just plain red colored liquid. The staff were all friendly and nice .... But I went for the flavors I used to get from the old recipes/ingredients. Would I go back? Sadly, No :(. There is no need to drive that far for zero satisfaction.

    Sides: fries and falafels

    Five years since my last review and this is still my favorite Mediterranean food place in Fremont. Their wraps are huge, a foot long at least. The wrap itself is soft, slightly grilled, and has the perfect chew. They have preset wraps, but I always build my own. Their chicken kebab and chicken shawarma are both excellent. I love how they introduce new ingredients (like jalapeno hummus, and crispy pita bits) and new entrees (like Moroccan shrimp). Recently I noticed they have combo specials: 2 wraps and 2 sides for $36 - good deal. Their fries are really good - skinny fries that are actually crispy. I also love their falafels. Can't rave about this place enough :)

    THE WRAP
    Martin H.

    Pro Tip: Their wraps are the size of your forearm. If you aren't as hungry you can order one and ask them to cut it in half for you to share, but if you are hungry you can totally smash one yourself--it's doable. When we're trying to eat something healthy and quick, Kebab Shop is where we go. I love how fresh their veggies are and how much they pack the veggies into their wraps without skimping out on the protein. It's always mouth watering good. My girlfriend and I get the basic wrap with everything in it minus the additional sauces, and carved lamb meat. But this one time around we finally got to meet the franchise manager and he suggested we try an add on (Which is completely free!). We opted to add saffron rice to our wrap and something soooo simple changed up the dish so much. The rice was soft, flavorful, and rounded out the wrap. You feel a lot fuller with it and it gives you the same density that a burrito would. Highly recommend on your more hungry days. As for the staff and restaurant, they're always nice, helpful and diligent. The restaurant is always clean and service is always fast. I appreciate the staff always coming around and asking if the food is up to standard even if this is considered a fast food restaurant. So if you are ever in the area and looking for something quick and healthy, I highly recommend Kebab Shop. Shoutouts to the manager, you run a tight ship with a great crew.

    I got a 20% off coupon after making purchase at another location last week and decided to try this location today. I came around 2:45 so the restaurant was not too busy. The restaurant was clean with tables on both sides of the counter. I ordered my food at the counter and the staff was able to accommodate my request to separate the greens from the rice/meat. I was able to get my order in about 5 minutes. The sauces, cilantro, spicy red and traditional garlic yogurt sauce dispenser were available for self service. The chicken was tender and not dry. It was delicious, especially with the spicy red sauce and yogurt sauces. I usually get the wrap but the bowl is just as tasty.

    Good location, clean tidy store inside with plenty of seating. I ordered on their kiosk which was user friendly. Prices are a bit high, and we waited for a long time for our order. The staff member was really friendly and seen that we were waiting for a while and asked for my name and told us it was coming up. Food was okay, I wasn't a fan of the saffron rice. The chicken kabob was moist and had good flavor, the falafels were tasty but on the dry side. I like their jalapeño cilantro dipping sauce. I might give this place another try.

    5 stars! Fast, fresh, and consistently good. The meat was flavorful, the toppings were crisp, and the sauces are elite. Also, one of the employees offered us samples of every hummus option so we could choose what we wanted with our meal, which was genuinely so thoughtful. Great portions, clean space, and super friendly service. I'll be back :)

    I'm incredibly disappointed with my experience here today. It was my first time trying this place, and I ordered a bowl at the self-serve kiosk. The instructions clearly said to wait for your name to be called. So I did--along with several others. But after a while, I noticed people who ordered after me getting their food. I finally decided to check the pickup shelf, where I had seen a staff member quietly place an order without calling out a name. Sure enough--my order had been sitting there for who knows how long. I had waited 30 minutes, even though my receipt said the wait should've been about 10. I placed the order at 7:29 PM and didn't leave until 8:03 PM. It was incredibly frustrating and honestly made me want to cry. When I brought it up to the staff, their response was awkward and unhelpful. They asked if the food was cold (the bottom was barely warm), looked confused, and then asked if I "wanted a card"--whatever that was supposed to mean. All I wanted was for them to call out my name like they were doing with other orders. Instead, I was unknowingly staring at my food on the shelf for 20 minutes. It was a terrible experience, and unfortunately, I won't be returning.

    Is it Halal?

    Some of the meat is halal. It's on the website, Bay Area locations have halal chicken and halal beef/lamb. Double check at the register

    Are delivery bags sealed for Doordash delivery?

    Yes they are.

    Are they offering salmon again? Thanks!

    Sadly not at the moment! I don't think they really going to bring it back anytime soon.

Tasted good with the yogurt and pickles but it there was so little ingredients I'm almost sure I would have liked the normal version more. 6 piece chicken wings: Well cooked and delicious, the "original" was a bit normal in flavor but I liked it dipped in their yogurt and their special sauce we asked for on the side.

My family and I, two adults and two young children, came here during Ramadan for iftaar. Before arriving, I specifically called ahead to ask whether we needed to come early because I understood restaurants can become very busy during iftaar time. I was told that arriving 10 to 15 minutes before iftaar would be perfectly fine and that our food would be ready around the time of breaking fast. Based on that reassurance, we came about 20 minutes before iftaar expecting a smooth experience. Instead, the moment we walked in, it felt like we were invisible. The restaurant was crowded but not chaotic. We sat down and waited while servers walked past us repeatedly without acknowledging us. Eventually, I had to flag someone down myself just to place an order. I even asked directly how long the food would take because we were fasting all day and had two small children with us. The server confidently assured us the food would arrive around iftaar time. That never happened. When iftaar finally arrived, all we received were dates and water. No appetizers, no main dishes, nothing. We continued waiting while table after table around us received their food. Meanwhile, our children became increasingly upset and hungry. Anyone with young kids knows that after a full day of fasting, asking them to wait another 20, 30, even 50 minutes is nearly impossible. Our kids were crying, exhausted, and confused as they watched other families eat while we sat there with empty plates. What made the situation worse was the complete lack of honesty and accountability. Every time we asked about our order, we were told, "It's coming soon." Then eventually the server disappeared entirely for nearly 20 minutes and avoided us altogether. A woman later approached us, but instead of apologizing or taking our concerns seriously, she became dismissive and defensive. By this point, nearly 50 minutes had passed since we ordered, and she still insisted we "shouldn't complain" (in Farsi) because the food would come "soon." That response was honestly more upsetting than the delay itself. A simple apology, honesty, or basic compassion toward a fasting family with small children would have gone a long way. We eventually left the restaurant feeling humiliated, disrespected, and deeply disappointed. What saddened me most is that this happened during Ramadan, a month centered around patience, generosity, hospitality, and good character. In Afghan culture and Islamic ethics, guests are supposed to be treated with dignity and care, especially during iftaar. Halal is not only about the food being permissible. Halal is also about honesty, fairness, respect, and how people are treated. Sadly, this restaurant failed in all of those areas. We will never return, and I cannot recommend this place to anyone looking for respectful service or a welcoming family environment.

Meal portions are very massive, which can probably feed more than one person. Pretty much all the items are good. My only concern is the Orange Chicken because it looses its texture and gets very slimy. In other words, coating falls apart. This would have been one of the best Chinese restaurants I would go for takeouts but they only have 2-3 weeks left before they permanently close it. I recommend supporting this restaurant by visiting and even trying their foods before their closure. Food is really good here.

The chicken was decent and paired well with the rice. My favorite items were definitely the bolani and chutney. At the end of our meal, they offered us a complimentary dessert of rose-flavored pudding with crushed pistachios. Overall, a 3.5 for food. I would definitely come back for the bolani. Please note parking can be quite difficult since it's in a small plaza so expect to parallel park in the neighborhood.
