The Kebab Shop - Kebab fries and beef kafta plate with saffron rice - Mediterranean Near Me - Seal Beach, California

This Kebab shop was exceptional. I ordered the protein plate after a long bike ride but It didn't come with the protein I wanted. Luckily, the waiter/cashier, Josiah was very helpful and correctly placed my order and got me the protein I ordered. He shown great customer service and made the experience pleasant. I would come back again. Shout out to Josiah for taking care of me and my friends. read more

I had a great experience here, came in before the lunch rush at 11:45 and had 2 people ahead of us. Casual dine in, order at counter and pickup food to take to table when they call your name. I really enjoyed the burrito and bowl options, a lot of great add in options. I got the bowl with shaved lamb akak gyro, really good size and good flavor. I recommend the OG sauce, the other option tasted like tangy ranch. I also tried the kafta, and it was super flavorful and tender. Next time I will get the kafta bowl. read more

Parking: Easy. Right out front. Space: Clean, modern, and comfortable. A straightforward fast-casual setup that feels well kept. Service: Friendly and efficient. Quick in, quick out. Food: I ordered the Kebab Fries for a quick lunch. Good, filling, and flavorful. The sauces are the standout. The zhoug, cilantro jalapeño, and spicy options elevate everything, so definitely use them. At around $15, it felt a little on the higher side for fries with toppings, but it did the job when I needed something fast and satisfying. Overall: A reliable, no-fuss lunch spot with great sauces and easy access. read more

The San Diego Wrap is just the best! Wrap loaded with meat and fries. The flatbread is so fresh and soft, makes it easy to eat. The wraps are so ginormous, good for a second meal or sharing+ I love their garlic sauce! read more

Don't get the wrap. For $18, I got a huge piece of flatbread filled with a ton of lettuce and about 1/4 cup or less of chicken. They also list items on their menu such as beef kofta and lamb, which they no longer actually offer as protein choices. Not a good value and immensely disappointing. Restaurant was clean though. read more

$17 for this "protein bowl". I'd like for someone to actually test this out. 42 g of protein? Hmmm I don't believe this. The bowl was a little small. I am surprised at the small amount of food it comes with considering the price. So qty to price ratio I'd give it a 3 star. At the very least fill the bowl with the greens. Their ingredients however is 5 star so that was their saving grace. I settled on a 4. Service is always excellent and the place is clean. I've always been a fan of theirs but this bowl is too sl for me to want to eat order this again. I left kind of hungry still ughh read more

A review update is in order, and even though their problem of an unusually early pickup email has persisted, I'm willing to give the 4th star. I placed my order online before I left home for a quick afternoon trip. I scheduled my pickup time to be in a couple of hours. Not even 10 minutes later, I got an email saying that my order was ready for pickup. "Aww here we go again!" I thought to myself. This had happened last year when I placed my order online for pickup three hours later, but after only one hour, I got the "your order is ready for pickup" email. Just like last year, I called to ensure that email was erroneous, and they did confirm it was, but also wasn't. What do I mean? Apparently, it was how their ticketing system was set up. The employee tried to explain it to me over the phone, but I had a difficult time understanding him and chalked it up to "faulty ticketing system" as the culprit. He then confirmed that his team could get my order ready by the promised pickup time, and I continued on my afternoon trip. He even knew my name before I even said it over the phone, so I thought that personal touch of customer service was kind of cool. I arrived about 5 minutes before my scheduled pickup time, and there wasn't any customer inside on this Friday evening. I was surprised! There were a few employees working, and they were pretty welcoming. The one I spoke to over the phone was ready to serve me at a moment's notice, and I told him I was here for pickup while acknowledging that I did come a little early. He did check on my order, and his team was still working on it. No surprise there. However, he remembered I had called a couple hours ago and took the initiative to show me why I received the erroneous email. He flipped the screen of orders around and showed me that in order to clear a ticket from the screen, they had to mark it as complete, and that would trigger the erroneous email to be sent. Now that I physically saw it, it made sense to me, but what doesn't make sense is why there was no workaround to suspending a ticket closer to the scheduled pickup time while leaving room for other tickets that may come later, but finish earlier? I feel with the current system they have, there's a greater likelihood of an inaccuracy on an online order than for an in-person order. Anyways, digressing aside, the team working that evening was pretty cool and welcoming. Compared to all the other locations, I feel this one has the most customer-centric employees, making sure the customer gets welcomed in once they step in, and wishing them a good evening once they step out. Then again, it was empty inside... I ordered my usual bowl as of late: The Grains Bowl with Chicken Shawarma as my protein with my go-to base being half & half Truffle Brown Rice and Fries. And since premium toppings are still complimentary on wraps and bowls for the time being, I had to go for those premium toppings. I still get a little annoyed with the inconsistency of the sauces from location to location. I've found myself playing a guessing game when I request sauces on the side; sometimes I'm asked to get the sauces myself, but other times, I get the sauces with my order. This time, I thought I had to get the sauces myself, but they actually included them in my takeout bag. So I got double the amount of sauces here lol. I was overall pleased with the bowl, which was filled to the brim that there was even a small onion and lettuce dangling over the edge of the bowl. The chicken might have been overcooked by a little, but it was barely a hindrance to the rest of the bowl, which tasted great and fresh with all those premium ingredients working well together like a symphony orchestra comprised of a multitude of instruments and talented musicians. I think the citrus vinaigrette really took the bowl to a whole another level of flavor; it was served on the side to me, so the contents of my bowl didn't get soggy while I was driving home. They have four sauce pumps in the rear of the shop, but only three were working; one of the two OG Yogurt sauce pumps must have run out of sauce, but the other one was luckily working. In fact, the remaining three were working normally when one pump would fill an entire cup, and the texture of the sauce was just right. My only other complaint about the bowl was their use of compostable material. Although they have since migrated from a rectangular bowl to a round bowl, the material remains the same, and I saw plenty of grease spots on the bottom of the bowl when I was done eating. It's also possible the sauces I used were the cause of the grease, but I still hope in the future, they'd consider using better material where the grease won't seep through to the exterior side of the bowl. read more

Service is great, the cashier will show you the different sizes of the bowls and plates if you are unsure of the size. The wraps looked pretty big! My husband abd I ordered the salad bowl with chicken skewer and a grain bowl with kafta, however the bowl comes half-full. I am on a keto diet and eat a lot of protein and was still hungry after I left. The place was clean but abit pricey for getting our bowls half-full. read more

Great quick but fresh food, friendly staff. Don't miss the sauces, all of which were great a

So good! The San Diego wrap was very filling and full of flavor, and the bowl with all the side options was delicious too. Everything tasted fresh. The tzatziki sauce was amazing, easily one of the best I've had. It was our first time here, the staff were super kind and helpful and gave great recommendations. Thank you to Isaac and team. You don't usually get that kind of service at a fast casual place, so it really stood out. Definitely coming back! read more

I don't usually leave 5-star reviews, but every once in a while, I'm completely blown away. This place delivered on all fronts: the food was amazing, the service was top-notch, and the restaurant was spotless, I especially loved the open kitchen and the sauce station was the best! You can never have enough sauces, the OG Garlic Yogurt was FIRE! I ordered the Kabab Fries and a steak wrap, and both were amazing! Kabab Fries: The fries were super crispy, and the meat was packed with flavor. The pickled onions were genius, and the feta cheese was the cherry on top. Next time, I might add cucumbers and tomatoes for some freshness, but this dish already hits the spot without it. Wrap: Hands down, the best wrap I've ever had. The steak was on point, and the wrap itself was DA KINE!! BROKE DA MOUTH CUZ! . I loved the charred taste, the tomatoes, cucumbers, and once again, that garlic yogurt sauce amazing! I'll definitely be coming back! Big shoutout to the staff for their fantastic recommendations It's rare to see a team so pumped about their food and service, and it made the experience that much better! read more

Love the build your own grains bowl and it's a great value! Awesome customer service here too!

Finally decided to try the kebab shop and I'm so happy we did! It's hard to find restaurants, especially for lunch, that is a healthier option, but this was on point. Quick service, clean space. My husband and I both got bowls. The food felt high quality and fresh. The jalapeño hummus is delicious. We will be coming back again and again! Ate so fast we forgot to take a picture! read more

Josiah provided great customer service and the food was excellent. Definitely better than cava. I hope the kebab shop open up a location in Pasadena! read more

I asked for my wrap without onions, but when I picked it up and got home, it was loaded with them. I spent more time picking out onions than actually enjoying my meal, and even after removing them, I could still taste the onion. I usually enjoy this restaurant but this really took away from the experience. I hope the staff pays closer attention to custom requests. read more

Quick and friendly service, fresh tasting and healthy food and plenty of seating. All good at TKS!!!

We ordered 5 meals online to go. 4 bowls and 1 plate. 4 of us had the saffron rice as our base. We all thought it tasted bad, almost rancid but definitely tasted weird. When we started to eat, we couldn't get past a sour smell coming from the bowls. I figured out the smell was coming from the recycled material bowls. We all had to dump our bowls out onto a plate. Good thing we were at home. The smell of the bowls still stuck with the food so unfortunately, we didn't finish our food and ended up throwing most of it out. My elderly mother asked, "How much was this food?" I told her it was over $100 and she said, "Not worth it." I have to agree, the meal was disappointing to say the least. Also, even though we put our sauce choices on the order, we didn't receive any of them. When picking up the order, we were not told to get our own sauces otherwise we would have. I did fill out the survey that came to my email stating our poor experience and I got a email back acknowledging my experience but nothing else. Apparently they don't really want to know what kind of experience you have. I also have to say that I have eaten at other Kebab Shops and did not have the same experience. read more

Good, healthful quick cuisine at full-service restaurant prices. This newer eatery offers you good Mediterranean fare swiftly. Greek salad was fresh, and the meats were tasty. Order and pick up at the counter. The service was pleasant. If you want to eat quickly and conveniently, this is a good place to go. There wasn't much attention paid to cleaning the tables, and the one I was at had crumbs and oily streaks all over it. Parking is immediately in front. Great Vibe. read more

Food's decent but they need to hire more people. They take 20-30 minutes on our single plate order the two times we've been there.

Stumbled across this place after shopping in the area. I was hungry and was hoping for a falafel wrap that was really good. This wrap was great!! May be the best I've ever had in terms of taste and bang for buck. My wrap was the size of a foot long, maybe bigger. I wish I lived closer I'd eat here all the time. Service was great. The staff was nice and everyone seemed to be working together and having a good time. The place was clean and somewhat busy. read more

As a loyal customer and a local resident of Seal Beach, I wanted to take the time to share some constructive but urgent feedback regarding several ongoing issues I've noticed at your location. The Kebab Shop has a strong brand identity, a streamlined menu, and a clean aesthetic that I've long appreciated. However, my recent experiences at your Seal Beach store suggest there are some operational details and guest amenities that have been overlooked--details that, frankly, detract from an otherwise positive experience. 1. Trash Can Location Is Ill-Placed and Inconvenient Let's start with the basics: trash disposal. At your Seal Beach location, the placement of trash cans is unintuitive and frankly, inconvenient. Guests should not have to wander through the dining area or backtrack across the room to throw away their waste. It disrupts the flow of foot traffic, leads to leftover trash being abandoned on tables, and detracts from the clean, modern atmosphere you're trying to uphold. Simply relocating or adding additional trash bins in more obvious, accessible areas--particularly near exits or central seating zones--would resolve this. From a customer service standpoint, waste management shouldn't be an obstacle course. It should be seamless. Right now, it feels like an afterthought. 2. Restroom Lacks Paper Towels--A Poor Balance Between Sustainability and Functionality I fully understand and support the desire to reduce waste and embrace environmentally friendly operations. Hand dryers are a welcome option and certainly reduce paper consumption. That said, completely eliminating paper towels in the restroom is a decision that prioritizes sustainability at the expense of basic user functionality. Not everyone is comfortable using air dryers. They're slow, loud, and often ineffective--especially for parents with young children, individuals with disabilities, or anyone needing to clean up a spill. Paper towels also serve multiple functions beyond drying hands: they're useful for wiping faces, cleaning up water on the counter, or handling hygiene needs. By not offering them at all, you're reducing customer convenience in a very noticeable and frustrating way. A dual-option approach would better serve your diverse customer base. You can remain environmentally conscious while also meeting the basic, reasonable expectations of your guests. 3. Lack of a Shrimp Option: A Missed Opportunity for Menu Inclusivity One of the strengths of The Kebab Shop brand is its simplicity: well-executed proteins, flavorful sauces, and customizable bowls and wraps. But the protein options are surprisingly limited. For those who don't eat red meat or poultry, the choices quickly run out. The absence of a shrimp option is notable, especially in a coastal town like Seal Beach where seafood is both expected and appreciated. A shrimp option would not only cater to pescatarians but also offer a lighter, healthier alternative for those seeking variety. It would open your menu to a broader segment of customers, including those with dietary restrictions or religious preferences. In a time when most fast-casual brands are racing to offer plant-based or alternative proteins, it's surprising that a mainstream, accessible choice like shrimp hasn't yet been included. 4. Ketchup Packets: An Inconvenient and Outdated Approach Your sauce bar is, hands down, one of the highlights of The Kebab Shop experience. The garlic yogurt, spicy chili, and red sauce in clearly labeled, easy-to-use dispensers are a great touch. But then there's the ketchup. Why this one condiment is relegated to tiny, tear-open plastic packets is baffling. Ketchup is not some fringe option--it's a staple. The use of individual packets is not only wasteful (in terms of plastic use) but inefficient and frustrating. Each packet contains a minuscule amount, requiring guests to open four or five just to get a reasonable serving. They're messy, inconsistent, and a strange outlier in what is otherwise a fairly progressive condiment setup. Adding a ketchup pump--just like the others--would reduce waste, minimize mess, and enhance the customer experience. It's a small change that would make a big difference in how customers interact with your food. In Conclusion, I'm offering this feedback as a genuine fan of your brand who wants to see your Seal Beach location thrive. These may seem like small issues in isolation, but collectively they speak to a lack of attention to customer experience that risks undermining your otherwise strong reputation. Seal Beach residents are loyal, thoughtful, and pay attention to these kinds of details. The Kebab Shop has a great opportunity to be a standout local favorite, but only if the experience is as strong as the food. I sincerely hope this feedback is taken to heart and leads to thoughtful improvements. I would be happy to speak further if you'd like a more detailed perspective from a frequent customer. read more

Well, my receipt showed hummus was supposed to be in my wrap, it wasn't. My receipt also showed a greek salad with my plate, no salad. it was take out, so didnt find out till got home. Both meals very dry And the steak was overdone. The tabouli had like two tiny pieces of tomato, so it too, was dry. Would not recommend. read more
