    Grilled chicken bowl
    Dave F.

    After reading so many great reviews about TKS Mediterranean, we decided to try them out. I ordered a grilled chicken bowl, a gyro bowl, and a carved chicken kid's meal. While the food had great taste, I was left a bit underwhelmed. I asked for the gyro to be cooked a little extra after it was shaved off, but was told they don't do that and was assured that it wound be piping hot. It was not, it came out lukewarm. Second, the protein ratio seemed really small for the bowl. What I received didn't match the pictures that I previously saw on Yelp so I didn't leave feeling that I got good value for the price. Maybe a plate would have been better. On the positive side, the food came out quick and the place was exceptionally clean. I think I will try the place one more time in case my experince was a one-off.

    The food was so flavorful and delicious I forgot to take a picture before I devoured it. This was my first time visiting this business so the employee walked me through the menu. I decided to build a bowl and selected the saffron rice with the standard toppings and I added grilled veggies. I asked for the dill yogurt sauce on the side and also got some OG sauce. I selected steak as my protein and it was so good. It was so fresh, flavorful and filling I loved it. It was honestly enough for two meals for me but I was being a hungry hippo and ate it all! Highly recommend!

    Came with some friends for lunch and had a great meal. Houston is home to quite a few chicken and rice places but The Kebob Shop has a little twist with offerings a nice variety of meats, sauces, toppings and sides. As we entered the staff was very friendly and helped us navigate the menu. They are well set up for enjoying your meal in the restaurant or taking your meal to go. They have a little separate kiosk where you can order and pay, bottle drinks and their sauces have cups and lids available making it easy for being on the go. We had a delightful woman as our cashier and she made great recommendations and helped us navigate the menu. I got the grain bowl with the truffle brown rice, beef kofta, all the classic toppings, tzatziki and olives. I also ordered a side of tabbouleh salad. The food took maybe 10 minutes to come out so while we waited we tried their sauces. The OG yogurt tastes similar to a garlic ranch, the cilantro jalapeño was the group favorite, a good mix of flavor with a little kick and the fire chili was a great addition of heat to my bowl. The kafta was well seasoned had and had great texture. I couldn't taste the truffle in the rice but it had good texture. Overall we all really enjoyed our meal and look forward to coming back.

    First of all, THANK YOU for the free food after the craziness from Beryl came to a halt. Thank you for serving the community! My husband REALLY likes this place. He often tells me that he likes this place a lot and he likes it way more than Cava. The customer service and employees here are ALL very nice and friendly!! They always have a smile on and are so cheery. I appreciate that because it makes everything just more enjoyable. The flavors are great and distinct. However, I just wish the flavors were stronger because they're subtle to me. I felt like social media really hyped this place up, so I had high expectations for it. My first impression was that this place is good, but I was underwhelmed a bit. I do really like the lamb beef, though! I do not like lamb AT ALL, but their lamb beef is delicious! It is definitely worth the upcharge. Fries: I think they're okay. I'm not sure how or why they were voted best fries. I even had fries as my bowl base, and it didn't wow me. Saffron rice: This is a must! It's so good. Hummus: I really enjoy their hummus. I don't know if it's homemade or what, but it tastes very good. The spicy hummus is, indeed, spicy. haha Falafel: AMAZING. It's perfect. I can't believe it's just chickpeas. I do like that they have all of their sauces out for free because I'm all about the sauce anywhere I go. The overall menu is pretty simple. Right now, they have new items for their "Hot Grill Summer," including fresh jalapenos, grilled veggies, brown rice, pita chips, and jalapeno hummus. I wish this is a part of their regular menu because I am a "quantity" person. I like having lots of options to customize my entree more when it comes to restaurants like this. The portions are decent, but I do think it's a tad bit pricey when you start upgrading the meat and adding more toppings to your bowl. Overall, the food is pretty good and is worth a try.

    The sauces! OG Yogurt, Cilantro Jalapeno, Fire Sauce All three are delicious.

    I'm glad to see a business move into this cool location! They only recently opened so the staff are still learning and everyone was working well together to take care of customers. My plate with a chicken skewer, Greek salad, and chickpea salad was loaded with fresh zingy flavor. My husband's lamb beef wrap will have me returning soon to order that, it was savory.

    Another example of doner kebab (what I was hoping to find).
    Melissa H.

    I had the wrap with the rotisserie lamb. Red cabbage, hummus, lettuce and in what seemed like a tortilla (I believe it's supposed to be pita bread). I also ordered the falafel. And they make small batch scratch sauces. The garlic is quite runny but the flavor is good. The burrito LENGTH is hilarious - it's like a foot long. And...thin. Compared to the burritos we imagine now. Usually fat and girthy. The flavor of the falafel was fantastic! Love chickpeas! The flavor of the wrap was tasty, though it probably could have used some salt. I used the garlic sauce to zhuzh it up. It's definitely filling. It's worth a trip to try something of everything, and it adds up quickly. So if you want to eat big then don't go here. If you know what you want and like, then it's worth it. Did not get to check out the restrooms. Don't know if they have changing tables in both restrooms or just the moms

    Bowl with steak and chicken skewer - my husband cleaned the bowl. Not one morsel left.

    Thank you to the owners of the Kebab shop for hosting a free wrap or bowl event today. I have been under the weather this week and ready to get up and get good food. I made it there and the line was wrapped around the building. Why wouldn't it be, free food! The promo was from 12-2. They honored the free offer for about 10 people behind me. I got my free wrap but also ordered another bowl with an extra skewer of steak and it came with a chicken skewer. My husband thoroughly enjoyed the bowl. I thoroughly enjoyed the wrap. I got the lamb wrap with fries inside. The green sauce and white mixed together were a perfect complement to this huge wrap. Since my husband didn't come with me, I paid for his meal. Also, I neglected to remove the og sauce from his and they were extremely busy so I just got back in line and ordered another bowl. I will eat the wrong one another meal. Believe me it will not go to waste. The second time around I got a free drink which I got lemonade and tea. Refreshing while I waited. I joined the rewards program and will visit them again. Almost got the hummus and pita chips but didn't feel like being stuffed. The community loves The Kebab Shop!

    Food was good. Staff and service was friendly as I was new to the experience. I must say that the sauces were highlight for me. The Garlic Sauce (white one) was my favorite. I only wish it was more garlicky.

    Cilantro Jalapeño hummus / Greek Salad
    Antonio B.

    I ordered this food Togo, but the restaurant seems clean based on how well the restaurant looked and the prep area was also tidy. The service was friendly and helpful for it being my first time. They explained how to order in detail and they were patient. The food was really good, the Cilantro Jalapeño hummus won me over. It was really good with a hint of spicy that wasn't over powering. The salad was very fresh and they put the dressing on the side. The chicken was a tad overcooked but still edible. The rice needs the cilantro jalapeño sauce or OG sauce to make it edible. The pita bread was good, but I think they forgot to give me more with my hummus. I Highly recommend this place. I

    Found it on TikTok so you know we had to try it! OMG went during lunch. Told the employee it was my first time he was super nice and took the time to explain how to order. Placed my order finally decided on a wrap! Absolutely delicious! Everything was to die for - especially the OG Yogurt sauce! Will definitely return so I can try other things on their menu! Definitely recommend!!

    First time at TKS and will definitely come back! Food full of flavor, the grilled chicken with tzatziki dip was my favorite. My kid ate free bowl of fries with chicken. Service was friendly and we didn't wait too long for our food even they had orders before us. The place was clean and they even have their own spotify playlist! I've never seen that before!

Their feta and olives are fantastic! For a main, try their lamb shank-- super tender and flavorful.

When the entree arrived I thought the lamb shank looked small. Taste wise it was good but I have had better. Also the potatoes were as advertised however their appearance and taste to me was average. If I ordered this meal again I would order another side dish perhaps the rice. This meal was a 3.5. Another visit was for dinner was to try the Kokkinisto entree for $21. Again this meal comes with the same enjoyable side salad with bread and I chose the Briami as the supplied side dish. The Kokkinisto (Greek beef stew) arrived on a bed of rice and covered in its herbed tomato sauce with garlic and onions. The Briami was in a separate bowl of stewed veggies in a light tomato sauce. I liked this meal better. The stew had good flavor with tender beef and a tasty red sauce. Also the veggies were good tasting too. I gave this meal a 4. Finally the waitress was very friendly. I believe her name was Jennifer? I like this restaurant and believe they serve good tasting and authentic Greek food.

While the wine selection and date friendly vibes were good selling points, the subpar service, high prices, and average food made for a less than stellar experience. These factors likely contributed to their recent closure, which is unfortunate. The interior was modern and intimate. High ceilings and large mirrors made the place feel more spacious than it was. It was a nice vibe that made the place visually appealing and date friendly. The brick walls, nice decor pieces, and ultra clean bathrooms were a big thumbs up. But vibes can't save poorly executed food. The octopus was dry and overcooked, the potato croquettes were a bit disappointing, as was, the trio of of dips. The souvlaki was supposed to be their most popular dish, but after trying their ribeye, pork, and chicken, it was simply too bland and not up to par. The gyro platters did not fare much better and the lamb chops were under seasoned. The lemon potatoes needed way more lemon but the only dish that was acceptable was the spanakopita (aka spinach pie). It was all overpriced, especially given the modest portions. Service was often aloof or nowhere to be found. When the nice woman butchered souvlaki and spanakopita, my gut was already in cringe. At least there was discount for cash. While I am saddened by their departure, I take comfort in knowing there are better options available in the city.
