    Three years ago, this location used to be Rival Coffee then the Steak n Shake chain briefly took over and now it's the family-owned Cali Kabob...hopefully they NEVER leave!! Upon entering, we were greeted and headed to the counter to place our orders. I opted for the falafel plate which included- rice, salad, a piece pita bread, 5 huge falafels and your choice of hummus or fries, I chose French fries. After ordering/paying, we sat ourselves and our food was delivered to our table. Everything is made to order and so good! The pita bread was warm and pillowy, the falafels were perfectly seasoned, the salad was refreshing and their garlic spread was so creamy and powerful it stayed with you the rest of the day lol Yummy! Highly recommend if you're ever in the Temecula area or visiting Pechanga and looking for a good local place to grab a bite. *There is an ample amount of seating available inside as well as a couple tables out front. The interior is very spacious, minimal and clean :)

    Beef shawarma Plate with Baba Ghanoush
    Cindy R.

    Was here not too long ago for a meeting for one of the sports my daughter is involved in. Its located in the little strip mall area by Pechanga where it used to be the old Steak N Shake location. During my visit, I ordered their Beef Shawarma plate which includes a small salad, rice and the choice is either hummus, fries or Baba Ghanoush. We have never tried Baba Ghanoush so decided to check that out as a side. Service was great from the time of ordering all the way to the time of having it delivered to the tables were were at. The plate was a good size. The beef shwarma meat was flavorful with the seasonings the put on it and the rice was just as good. The salad had red onion, cucumbers and tomato which went well with the shwarma meal. I can say although the Baba Ghanoush wasn't really my cup of tea, at least I tried it and will next time to for the hummus. While we were there, my daughter ordered a peach milkshake and it was simply divine. It was nice, creamy and peachy. Just the right amount of sweet where it wasn't too sweet. The dining area is large with plenty of tables and even great for a big group. Everything was clean and well taken care of. We had a great experience and would not mind coming back esp since its conveniently nearby!

    1st time here, after ordering noticed how filthy the bathroom floor was as I walked in and my shoes were sticking to the floor, it was apparent it had not been mopped in a REALLY long time. Have seen cleaner gas station restrooms. Came out and started looking into the kitchen and could see that too had not had a deep clean in a long time, if ever. Grease buildup on the walls, crud all over the floor under the grill and other hard to reach but visible places. While the dinning room appeared to be "clean" at first glance, it was also apparent it had been swept but not mopped in in who knows how long. Also, I tried to locate their Health Dept grade but it was not posted anywhere, as required. At least the kid at the register was pleasant.

I tried their protein bowl with a beef patty instead of chicken and it was so good. The chili crunch that comes with it gives the bowl such great taste and texture. I thought it'd be spicy because of the dressing but it isn't so if you want spice make sure to add some hot sauce or something. The customer service is so kind and generous, knowing that the wait to just order could take a while so they appreciate your patience. If you're a sauce kind of person, try all their sauces; they're thick and delicious!

Burger patty size very thin, maybe all of them are supposed to be super thin like smash burgers? I don't know. Might be back to try a stand alone burger by itself. Got a chocolate shake, taste was good but it was very liquid from the start. More like drinking chocolate milk than a milkshake. Maybe the milk to ice cream ratio was way off. 6/10. Overall I enjoyed it mostly. Will probably try again and give it a second go. Will give the benefit of the doubt based on taste of the food. 4/5, I say worth trying.

There is also a condiments caddy with mayo, mustard, ketchup, Ranch dressing and what tasted a little like comeback sauce. Also available were Tapatio, Cholula and Tabasco. The place is loud, but to be expected with all of the different t.v.s showing a multitude of sports. Every table had its own t.v., so you can choose what to watch. It was nice and clean inside and plenty of parking available., though I imagine that changes if you visit later in the day.

They also have a buy 1 burger get 1 burger for free don't recall if it's on specific days. One thing that got my attention is it's not just the burger alone you get the whole meal with the option of fries or tater tots as well. Only downside i would say would be the water taste a bit like tap, the alcoholic beverage can use a bit more passion behind it a little sloppy with presentation but tasted amazing and gave a great buzz. Also don't sit outside if you don't like the smell of cigarettes the smoke shop next to them has alot of cigarette smokers and a majority of people who dine there smoke cigarettes as well (oddly) lol. Service was great very welcoming, you sit yourself as well so choose wisely. Inside dining is high seating chairs very sports bar energy. If you're not a local or a local id definitely check this place out and try it out yourself. PSA: bathrooms are super dirty
