"#6. Chicken Seekh Kabob was so taste but rice portion is small . It should be enough because the price we pay is pretty much expensive "
"Chicken Seekh Kabob - 1pc for $5 was little pricey.. expected atleast 2 pc .. but taste was ok.. not worth the price.
Chicken Haleem (Sat & Sun) the quantity was good taste was ok... not great but good .. $20 was too much as compared to other restaurant that offers between $12-16 are much more tastier and flavorful but this was just ok... not worth the price... expected more bold flavors but not for a $20 price.. too much.. but once spend is an experience to not order next time.
Fresh Bread - They were pretty soft... compared to any other restaurants .. naan and rotis.. this one was different.. I had ordered 2 ... but received 3 .. not sure why... (may be 1 complimentory with the seekh kabob)... but liked it.. soft well baked..undoubtedly good .. combined well with the Chicken Seekh Kabob and Chicken Haleem (Sat & Sun) .....
Rasmalai - Must Try !- It was the show stopper....
Very different... till date what i have received from other restaurant seemed similar to the packed ras malai that is available in most of the freezers in Indian grocery store..
But this ras malai seemed inhouse hand made.. fresh and delicate... the taste and flavors were unique and delicious.
Absolutely, 1 is not enough if you are a sweet lover...
$5.99 worth the price the taste and it was Awesome undoubtedly....🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶"

"Such great flavors and textures. I had the pumpkin dumplings appetizer and it was excellent: dumplings filled with butternut squash and topped with beef, lentils, yogurt and seasoning. Then I had the saffron chicken: pulled chicken in a yogurt based stew and flavored with saffron and dill. It's served over basmati rice. The whole meal was excellent. I can also recommend the mantu and the sambosa."
"Bistro Aracosia NEVER disappoints ..It's always spectacular.. The grilled lamb chops were incredible and the saffron chicken melts in your mouth.. It is our go to when we have people over for dinner and want to share a special gem. The Pumpkin Dumpling Appetizer is sweet and savory and so soft and pillowy in texture .. youll think you went to heaven.

"I've been to Grill Kabob in person a few times. They've made my Gyro perfect.... here I ordered a Lamb Kabob Wrap it's delicious. They give a side of chick peas, green sauce and white sauce. I don't eat the chick peas (my daugter had at some point) All I need is the Gyro and may be the extra white sauce. I will go here over & over again because it's made fresh and the naan bread has an home made taste. My name is "Kiki" so... if they (Grill Kabob) read this and I order the Lamb Kabob Wrap they know I just want the Wrap and the white sauce. They season the chunk lamb to perfection!!!...

"The expectations were not as great as other times. The hamburger is anything but authentic, did not taste appetizing. The Aushak entry had 9 half filled dumplings. The aush was same as usual. I would recommend replacing the burger with something authentic and the kids side should be healthier, the fries were not good did not taste like potatoes... Thanks! "

"The portions and the food were great. Only downfall that was misleading was the pictures don't show any sauce and the description doesn't say there's white sauce drizzled on top. I ordered white and hot sauce as sides. Some of my family didn't want sauce on top but had no choice. They should add an option to request no sauce or put it on the side."
"everything is delicious you will not be disappointed, fresh chicken (not precooked) and vegetables (crisp and fresh), perfect ratios of meat to veggies and sauce!👍🏽"

Rave Reviews
"Fish Kabob was tender and flaky and seasoned perfectly. Pairing it with the green-sauce was amazing. The only thing I didn't care for was how carb heavy it was. Instead of the large scoops of two different types of rice, I would have appreciated an option to add a different side (like the chickpeas) as a surcharge. I found myself done with the protein and still a mountain of rice left behind."
"My husband and I tried Kabob Express for the first time and absolutely loved it! The food was very flavorful and served with ample amount of rice. The bone in chicken kabob was very tasty. The chicken (boneless) and beef kabob was our favorite, very tender and full of flavor. The chick peas and spinach were really good too! Highly recommend!"

"Everything is really good! The Dolmathakia (5 Pc) are better than average, the Chickpeas salad is super-tasty and the little bit of sourness it had is like a very welcome, flavourful escape from America! The Greek Potatoes are thickly cut, hearty and filling, and the Green Beans leave the taste buds satisfied! It all came well-packed to survive the delivery journey, too ...."
"the Chicken Souvlaki Pita was excellent for the taste, portion and freshness that I would order again but I probably would order it as separate dishes and have the bread in a separate wrapper to keep it from getting soggy during transport on hot weather days. I want to try more dishes from Athena, definitely!"

"Qaubili Palau is amazing but the amount of meat you get doesn't add up to the price you actually pay. I'm sure when you dine-in you get a sufficient amount of meat, but when you order over door dash it's packaged in a to-go box. The meat is treated as a side. "
"I love Kabobistan. Today I ordered the Kabob Sandwich Combo with chicken and I requested a side of flavorful chickpeas. It came with some spicy green sauce, which I enjoyed in moderation. The bread in the sandwich was fantastic and the chicken was perfectly cooked."

"Exceptional. We think everything tastes great, Presentation was awesome and everything was well packed and stapled. Veggies are super fresh and delicious and this is between 7 and 8pm on a Sunday, mind you. Meal was prepared on time. Very happy with this restaurant and will likely order again. "
"Honestly maybe deserves five stars but I was also very hungry!
This food was very good, I got the Mild Boneless Chicken Kabob. It is chicken breat which I appreciate. I definitely first thought it wasn't enough food but it was definitely more than enough. The chickpeas are not your typical Indian curry its more of an oily base and thick seasoning taste very good on top of the rice. The Chicken is good, but you are getting the bold flavors from adding the chickpeas I added the white sauce only.
Comes with a "side salad" I tosed that on top with the rice and the onion did what they were supposedto do!
The only reason I didnt order the spicy chicken due to my spice levels however I will be trying that next time for flavor purposes "

"This food was absolutely DELICIOUS!I ordered Nehari at the recommendation of my friend in Pakistan, and it was so flavorful and tender. The Butter Chicken was some of the best we've ever had. The Naan was buttery and just right to dip. The portions were great, we had leftovers for the next day. The Naan and Tasty Paratha were huge. The Samosa were stuffed!

"Their pizza is my literal favorite! I get the pepperoni pizza. The pizza always arrives fresh and tastes the same every single time I get it. Wherever I go in this area I will order from them every time I want pizza. I just sat here and ate 6 slices back to back and could go for another lol. Today was my cheat day and this was the perfect way to indulge! Oh and their fries are bomb too! lol overly satisfied customer right here!"

"Absolutely delicious packed to perfection for delivery!! We ordered Garlic Naan Butter Chicken Daal Makhni and basmati rice came with it!!"
"The food is flavorful with the right amount of spice—especially for me. When mixed with the rice, it balances out just right. I’m from Texas, and I will say it is seasoned and spicy to my liking as well.
The food doesn’t seem like a lot at first, but it is definitely filling.
I actually bought this once before maybe a week ago but forgot to upload the picture, so I’ll upload it with this one. The older one is the picture with the cut-up naan, and today’s meal is the picture with the whole naan. Although it’s cut up in the older photo, I do believe the naan added up to a whole piece.
The naan is very garlicky (aromatic)and flavorful—definitely homemade, which makes it worth the price!"
