Uncle Ray's restaurant, Real Kabob, is located in San Jose, California, and serves the best of Persian cuisine, with a concentration on Ray's famed kabob dishes, which are served fresh off the grill.
I got Falafel Bowl and Side Of Falafel. Both were very tasty - falafel were peeping hot and quantity was great. Here are couple of things to consider:
1. There was a lot of basmati rice for bowl. I wouldn't mind a little more salad or hummus with less rice quantity.
2. It came with house sauce which was awesome but it was a small package. The food was very flavorful but it felt dry due to less sauce. I suggest they add a bit of more sauce(s) so it's not dry.
I will go back - it's a bit expensive compared to other falafel shops but food is good.

We always order the family meal package and it did not disappoint. The variety of skewers, from beef to chicken, lamb, and shish kabob, were all cooked perfectly. The meat was tender, flavorful, and consistently delicious across the board.
The portions were just right for sharing, and everything felt well-balanced. This really hits the spot every time, and the basmati saffron rice, roasted tomatoes, lavash bread, fresh mint, onions, and house sauce tied everything together beautifully.
Overall, a really good, satisfying meal that we keep coming back to.

Listen, everything here is top tier, but that said, if you aren't getting the ZERESHK (little dried red berries, sweet and tart) with your basmati rice then you're doing it wrong. This is the only kebab place in the area that has them as far as I've found.

I am addicted to this awesome food. The beef kabob is grilled to perfection and mouth watering. The Ghormeh sabzi is cooked with such expertise with the cubes of meat blended in an aromatic stew with herbs and kidney beans. The chef deserves an award for the epic gourmet food that is magically conjured in the kitchen of this fantastic restaurant. You have my deepest gratitude!!

The Beef & Chicken Thigh Kabob Plate is my favorite meal to order on doordash. The flavors are amazing, quality of ingredients is spectacular, and it's very filling (even enough for a small meal the following day). Love the meat. Love the rice. Love the salad. Love the tomato. I'm sure I'd love the bread if I could eat it (low gluten diet). It feels like the perfect combination of a fancy/special meal and comfort food.
