Chicken Kabob with Bell Peppers & Onions
Melanie D.

If you want delicious kebabs, go to Grill Hut. We ordered a chicken kebab plate with grilled tomato and veggies and a steak kebab plate with salad. Everything was good but what makes Grill Hut great is their meat! This was the best steak kebab I've ever had at a restaurant. Everywhere I go overcooks it and it's fine. But here the meat was soooo tender and easy to eat. The flavor was amazing. The staff is friendly and the store is clean. This particular experience was 3 stars due to the wait time. Our two plates took 20 minutes to come out. It did look like they were very busy with an online order. I don't hold it against them and don't think it was bad service but it was a bummer since we only had 45 minutes before picking up our kids and half of it was spent waiting. Also, a heads up: the bathroom has a code.

Chicken kabob plate. DELICIOUS! Way better than Luna Grill and just as good as Panini Kabob Grill. This is my favorite new spot.

I've been impatiently waiting for Panini Kabob Grill to open by my apartment in Aliso. I just found Grill Hut! ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! Now I don't care when Panini Kabob opens. I found a better spot and better priced too. The service is also great! If you love Mediterranean food, you need to try this place. Their hummus and shirazi salad are also great!

Darn good Chicken Kabob

They moved down a few doors but like just 100 feet. Same mall where Board and Brew, Rubios are... lots of parking and lots of choices. The chicken kabob plate is really good and won't make you feel guilty. Service was nice and fast so no worries there. Salad dressing seems to have a bit of mustard in it and it's good but would have preferred tahini or garlic based dressing for a Mediterranean meal.. maybe that's just me.

Chicken kebab plate with basmati rice and hummus, to stay and not to-go.

Grill Hut is a fast service food joint in the Laguna Hills area, in a marketplace with a lot of food and shopping options. It is conveniently located near where Alicia Parkway and Pacific Park cross. My overall experience is OK. The meat was properly cooked with a decent amount of seasoning. The rice was individually fluffy but nothing to write home about. The hummus was OK and definitely leaned on the thick and savory and slightly grainy side. I had a chicken kebab plate with basmati rice and hummus for around $17. The area is lovely on a sunny day. It is great to sit outside. The food is good enough and nice and clean. Overall, my experience was fine. I'm not going to aim to come back here, but I had nothing that made me not want to come back here.

I have been coming to this location for over 16 years. I recently started returning whenever I am in the area, and I had forgotten how good it truly is. The chicken is consistently cooked to perfection and flavorful every time. A special thank you to Maz, who always makes sure the chicken is cooked to the perfect temperature. The quality and consistency keep me coming back after all these years.

Somehow forgot to eat lunch today then realized I was hungry around 2pm. Was going to stop at the fast food asian chain in this plaza but saw Grill Hut nearby and wanted to try it out instead. Wasn't too hungry so I just ordered the kid's ground beef kabob (includes sauce, half a pita, and rice). The kabob was tasty! Pita and sauce were okay and the rice was a bit oily/buttery. The wait wasn't too long and the kid's meal portion was pretty good. The shop is small but there are tables outside too. While waiting for my food, a gentleman was ordering his meal and it seemed like it was also his first time. He was a bit overwhelmed by the menu and I thought the worker could have been more helpful and patient. He had a lot of questions and the worker was a bit short with him. I enjoyed my kabob! Some room for improvement with the cashier service and quality of sides.

Kids portion beef koobideh (Kid's Ground Beef)

Love the new location! Ambiance is great with nice natural light. Cozy decor. Lots of seating and staff is very friendly ! Food is the best here ! You gotta try the chicken, rice, salad and add veggies to it! It's mouth watering and the salad dressing is so good. They sell it by the bottle ! The kids meal is a great deal and you get half a skewer of beef. That's my daughter's favorite. It's just enough food. The regular size portion you could eat all by yourself. The portions are good. I recommend the yogurt dip too! Persian food grilled on charcoal is mouth watering ! The owner is very kind.

RUN, don't walk, to dine here!! Celebrated our 49th…read moreanniversary - very well taken care of by our fabulous waiter Tony!! Delicious meal, nice wine-- but let me tell you about the baklava ice cream dessert: ORGASMIC!!! (And I never eat dessert, haha!) Thank you Tony & all dining on patio... it felt like a huge extended family but we didn't have to cook, cleanup, nor do dishes!!!

They have an outdoor hookah lounge attached to the restaurant. Beautiful interior, good service…read more We ordered the Sultan's platter and an order of baba ganoush, and it was a perfect amount for a table of 4 light to moderate eaters. I think two hungry people could finish the Sultan's platter alone. The Sultan's platter comes with hummus. The server kindly refilled our pita with a fresh batch multiple times without being asked. Of the 3 meats we had: Filet: The server asked how we wanted the filet cooked and we said medium, but not even a hint of pink; regardless it was very tender. A bit on the gamey side in case you don't like that, but for me it was fine. Chicken: Very juicy but a little undersalted and some parts were a bit chewy. Not among the best chicken kabob I've had. Kafta: This was the standout among the three. The seasoning was excellent, so herby and delicious. I appreciated the variety of having all three, but next time I might get just kafta. The hummus and baba ganoush were great, but also not particularly better than any other Mediterranean place. This is a small nitpick but for a nice place that otherwise uses all ceramic and silverware, why plastic cups for the tahini and garlic sauce? Overall it was good, I would come back, but for the price I think I wish more elements would have wow'ed me.

I've visited Panini Kabob Grill at three different locations. This is probably my favorite location…read morefor pick-up. Their location at the Irvine Park Place is my favorite for dining in. I usually order the Fresh Atlantic Salmon Kabob, but decided to try something different. I went with the Beef Koobideh Kabob this time. I also ordered a tofu skewer a-la-cart. I ordered ahead online. Parking in the immediate area can be fairly limited, but the location is near the Kaleidoscope, so there are parking options available. You'll just have to walk further to get to the restaurant. Inside, the atmosphere is normal. It's not too bright, but just right for a nice dinner. When I arrived at the front desk, I was immediately greeted by friendly staff who retrieved my order. I didn't have to wait as they had my order ready as confirmed via text/e-mail. When I got home and opened the food, I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the take out. The portions are the same as if you're dining in. The beef was seasoned perfectly and so was the tofu. The rice and even the Ceasar salad were great. I was definitely happy with my meal, considering it was take out. Food - 5 Service - 5 Ambiance - 4.5 I totally recommend this place!

This is Chicken Shish Kabob I normally order for take out …read more recently I notice the amount of food is shrinking! I picked up my order and I came home , I see just the amount of rice almost half , tomato & pepper just a very small piece & chicken kebab is less then original size!!! So disappointing, I feel like they cheat customers and cut the amount of food and price is gone up! I don't appreciate this, wont recommend people to go there and I will stop ordering food from there. It is shame some restaurants doing this, they think this is saving money for them but it is opposite result as they loose they regular customers!

Food is good, service was okay, speed was disappointingly slow…read more I get that these places make their food to order so I expected a wait, but they have the word "express" in their business name so I had a false expectation. Needless to say I sat there waiting for my two to-go orders for what felt like an eternity. A lot of people flowed in after me and they were all just waiting, it was weird since it was empty when I walked in and then seeing 6 tables of people with no food. I thought I ordered the cheaper lunch special of chicken koobideh and beef koobideh, but he punched in the full portion instead. I didn't really mind as it just became extra food for dinner. But I feel like if someone is going in at the beginning of lunch time, they would be looking to order lunch menu stuff? I guess I can't expect people to do what I my logic would do. The two koobidehs is pretty much the same thing I order at any of these places because I prefer ground meat that's tender and juicy and this place did not disappoint. They were cooked to perfections with just a little crisp on the meats. Not much else to say since I only had a basic meal....meals

We had it to go, so I can't speak much about the dine-in experience, but I will say the service…read morewasn't the friendliest. We ordered the combo beef and chicken plate, the beef gyro plate, and two falafel on the side. The falafel didn't look impressive, but they were surprisingly excellent--moist, flavorful, and honestly better than Sababa's. I'll definitely order six next time. The gyro plate was solid, not overly greasy or heavy, and the seasoning was just right. I wasn't a fan of the hummus, which had a bitter aftertaste, but my partner liked the tanginess, so that may come down to personal preference. On the combo plate, the chicken stood out: juicy and tender. The beef seemed to be a leaner cut and was a bit dry. I'd probably skip this particular beef kebab next time and try a different one. The saffron rice and grilled tomato were a nice complement. The plate also came with jumbo naan, served warm and smelling amazing, definitely a highlight.
