I came here to pick up my takeout order, but then decided to eat some of my lunch here. I had the matzo ball soup with a baklava dessert. The matzo ball's were light and tender in a nice chicken broth. I've eaten here several times with a cousin, the food is always very good, quite fresh and tasty Mediterranean food, which usually can last a few meals. The meals with basmati rice, usually come with pita bread, hummus and a cucumber salad. If you have a craving for Mediterranean food, definitely check this place out, you won't be disappointed. It's conveniently located next to Trader Joe's, so you can do your grocery shopping before or after your meal. Bring someone along, or meet on a date here for your lunch or dinner, it's a good place to socialize.

Kids Falafel Plate with fries- missing one falafel  cause it was eaten before i remembered to take a pic

Visited Kabab Burger for the first time a couple of days ago. It's a humble little spot tucked into a strip mall next to Trader Joe's, and it's been on my "i wanna try this place" list for months, so I was excited to finally make it! I planned a brunch with friends, and we ended up with a group of 12. The staff couldn't have been more accommodating. Service was warm, patient, and genuinely friendly, which made the whole experience even better. Now for the food: I ordered: Matzo Ball Soup - flavorful with perfectly fluffy matzo balls. Comfort in a bowl. Kids Chicken Schnitzel with Fries - The schnitzel was well-seasoned and delicious. Fries were solid, and dipping them in the side of tzatziki I ordered made them extra tasty. My mom had: Some of my soup (and she loved it too!) Kids Falafel with Fries - We swapped the tahini for tzatziki, and she enjoyed everything also. We also grabbed a couple of pitas on the side--always a good idea. They were yummy! I've included a few extra photos of dishes others at our table ordered as well.

We've been here several times and it's a great meal every time! We came here for lunch and shared several items. Everything here is great! Babaganoush is smoky and delicious. The hummus is great and so smooth. The pita breads are perfectly warm to eat with all the sides. Highly recommend everything here!

Chicken Shawarma Plate

The chicken shawarma I eat most often, and I drive from Emeryville for it. Huge portions, great food, chill room, easy vibes. I've always had good service and prompt delivery of my order.

I have been craving some kababs for quite sometime and my tummy was finally satisfied. Kabab and Burger Mediterranean has a small patio with five tables along with a few tables inside. We had the appetizer sampler and the pick two item combo. The appetizer plate came with some of the best pita bread I have ever had. The bread was warm soft and fluffy. I chose the lamb and ground beef kabab along with a chicken breast kabab. Both were seasoned well tender and delicious. The chicken is obviously marinated as it was not dry at all. My only complaint here is the two item combo was $25.90 which for me is expensive but this is the bay area so maybe it isn't so bad. That being said the food is delicious.

Gyros Plate
Aerielle S.

Did a togo order at 5pm on a Monday, it was not crowded at all. Very quiet. I really like getting togo from here because they're quick and the food is simple and delicious. Got the gyro plate, it comes with a garlic yogurt sauce, tomato cucumber feta salad, rice and gyro. I really liked the rice because it was long grain and it was perfectly seasoned. The salad was refreshing and tangy. The meat was flavorful, paired well with the pita. The garlic yogurt sauce was so good, love the savory yogurt taste. You could taste the garlic inside.

Chicken Schwarma wrap. Very bland
Wendy H.

Was hoping for a super flavorful experience and what we got was a chicken shawarma that was very bland and needed spice. The Gyro meat was better flavored and tender but the hummus and salad inside the pita was also very bland. The falafel was crunchy and nice but also lacked flavor. We used a bit of the red sauce to help with that. So it was OK service was also good.

Located right next to Trader Joe's in Lafayette, Kabab Burger offers a menu of Israeli and Mediterranean eats in a casual, colorful setting. A highlight here is their soft, fluffy, chewy pita bread, which goes perfectly with all of their homemade dips. Speaking of which, the Sampler Platter was an array of mezze including creamy hummus, smokey baba ganoush, Turkish salad (sautéed tomatoes, onions, peppers), spicy eggplant, tahini, pickled turnips, 2 dolmas, and 2 crunchy falafels. The platter was a great way to try out a bunch of different flavors, though the standout was the baba ganoush, which had a particularly smokey flavor and creamy texture. I also tried the House Salad, a simple mixture of chopped cucumbers and tomatoes. At the self-serve counter were water and several condiments, including a housemade zhoug (spicy herb sauce), which was tasty but seemed to have been sitting around for a while. Overall, the food here was definitely decent, though some of the items didn't seem particularly fresh, and the flavors were a bit lacking.

They add a 5% "container and handling" tax. Expensive to begin with and the now obligatory tipping menu. Shady AF

The standout is truly the Jujeh sultani where you can try both chicken and ground beef kebab. Get the chicken thigh because it's jucier! This entree in particular is the best meal I've ever had in Walnut Creek downtown, and this is coming from someone who has tried every restaurant here. Excellent service and ambience. I could eat this meal once a week.

The ambiance inside is very modern and with dimmed lights and Persian decorations on every corner. I really like their open kitchen design, you can actually see them preparing the food which I haven't really seen in many other Persian restaurants, so it gives me reassurance to see how they are preparing the food. I ordered the kabob koobideh and I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was on the healthier side! It wasn't drenched in butter and unlike previous kabobs I've had at other franchises I don't feel heavy or gassy. The price is also cheaper than the other Persian restaurants in Walnut Creek. I would say for the location, incredible service (all the workers knew a bit of Farsi!), price, and food quality it's an excellent place to eat!

My most recent visit fell far short of satisfactory and, indeed, posed a significant health risk…read moreby. My husband and I made a point of clearly communicating my severe nut allergy to our server. This critical information was reiterated on two subsequent occasions: first, when I opted for the salad after the tomato soup was unavailable, specifically noting the limited nut-free choices, and again, when my husband ordered the tiramisu cocktail. Given that we frequently share dishes, I inquired if the garnish on his drink contained nuts, prompting our server to verify with the bar and confirm its absence. We ordered the beef and lamb dumpling appetizer. The menu description for this item did not list any nut ingredients. Shortly after we began consuming the dish, my husband noted an unexpected crunchy texture. A query to another staff member, who then consulted our server, led to our server returning to our table and asking about my well-being. At this point, I was already experiencing a tingling sensation in my tongue, a clear indicator of an allergic reaction. When I directly asked if the dish contained nuts, our server confirmed the presence of pine nuts, responding with "I know, I'm sorry," when reminded of my previously stated allergy. This incident is profoundly disturbing. It highlights a critical lapse in the establishment's adherence to food safety protocols, specifically concerning allergen communication and staff training. The failure to accurately disclose all ingredients on your menu, coupled with the apparent disregard for my repeatedly communicated life-threatening allergy, is unacceptable and put my health, and potentially my life, at severe risk. My evening, which was intended to be a celebratory occasion, was instead marked by fear and distress. I expected a thorough investigation into this matter, a detailed explanation of the immediate and long-term steps the establishment planned to implement to rectify these deficiencies including improvements to the menu labeling practices, comprehensive and mandatory allergen awareness training for all staff, and a review of overall safety procedures to ensure such a dangerous oversight does not affect other patrons. Instead I got an email saying they would look into it and get back to me in a week. It's been almost 9 months.

The service wasn't exactly friendly- they didn't really communicate much with me and just pointed at my to-go bag and where to tap my card. I don't typically like lamb but it was very juicy and seasoned well here, so I enjoyed it! The chicken was delicious and definitely my favorite. I thought the rice was just ok, it was bit dry. I agree with others that it's a shame they don't include garlic sauce or other sauce on the side. The inside had a few tables for seating. There is no patio area, so outside seating was not an option.

The gentleman at the cashier was very friendly and came to find out he used to work at the Mediterranean place I've been going to in Palo Alto what a coincidence.

Overall, I highly recommend this Mediterranean restaurant because their food is delicious and affordable..
