Beef and chicken plate

Clean environment, friendly staff, food was good. I do wish it came with atleast one pocket bread for the price. Although generous amount of salad given. Overall pretty good might come back in the future.

Don't bother coming here. Everything was tasteless. I had to salt everything to give it some flavor. The garlic sauce tasted like garlic-flavored ranch. So disappointed as I was so hungry after a 3-hour drive.

Salad

We ordered takeout from here and it was ready in 20 minutes. The place seemed nice enough. You order at the counter and then take it to your table. My wife got the shish kebab dinner and it actually came rare like we ordered it. We have often had problems with Mediterranean food not coming rare. My wife says it was some of the best shish kebab that she has had. My daughter and I ordered the kafta kebab which is a combination of beef and lamb and it was a touch dry. One of the options on the app was to get half Bulger, but neither of our dinners came with it like we ordered. The salad was excellent with pita chips and a nice subtle dressing. All in all, I recommend it.

Fresh salad, hot spicy chicken, rice, side of pita and garlic dipping sauce.

4/27/25 5:45pm We have discovered a new favorite. The combination of friendly service, great atmosphere, and AMAZING hot fresh meal was impressive. I appreciated the attention to detail in packaging my takeout order, which kept my salad fresh and crunchy. Serving portions were also impressive. I will be back and I recommend!

Garlic sauce is worth the hype! So good and able to be spread unlike garlic sauces at other places. Chicken is always good quality. The food was hot, fresh, and came out quickly for the 3 of us who dined in. Even the fattoush salad(which I'm usually not a fan of) was so good, I don't know what they put in their dressing but it's delicious. Two girls working the front answered questions and were friendly, they also seemed to have a lot of regulars come in. Inside is clean with minimal decor, no clutter. Just very open and fresh. Only drawback was the pita wasn't too good. Not very soft, I don't know if it was old or just not the best quality. It doesn't affect the rating, everything is great! I'll have to try their baklava next.

I did not realize this place was so close to my home. I was pretty exhausted from a long day of work and didn't feel like making dinner. I called and placed my order around 4:20 PM. The clerk on the phone said my order would be ready in 20 min. I got there about 4:45 and it was ready to go. The place is nice inside with modern and clean decor. I didn't take a photo of the soda fountain but it was at the end of the dining area and kind of hidden around the corner from view of the cashier counter. They also offered sliced cheesecake and some sort of chocolate pie in the refrigerated display case. I was a little shocked when the cashier told me that my order was $51. I also always tip on take out because I know small businesses took a big hit during this pandemic. So after tip, it was $61. It was my mistake but I didn't realize there were 2 different prices for lunch and dinner plates. Dinner plates cost about $3-5 more. Dinner prices run about $19-20 an entree. It didn't even make much sense to me that the 2 beef kabob dinner plate is $20 while the chicken and beef combo is $19.75. We all know chicken is cheaper and it should have been more like $17-18. The prices are the only reason why I knocked off a star. My order was for 2 people. I ordered one beef kabob entree, one chicken and beef kabob entree and an order of 4 samosas. The kabob plates come with a fattoush salad, rice pilaf and garlic sauce. The salad was actually really good. No cheap iceberg lettuce here. It was all dark leafy greens. There are small pieces of baked pita crisps in it with an ever so light mint flavor. The kabobs come with 4 pieces of meat with a slice of onion and green bell pepper. The chicken had good flavor and wasn't dry but I really enjoyed the beef. I am eating less beef these days and prefer chicken more often but honestly get the beef! The rice was well seasoned, al dente firmness with a buttery flavor. The samosas were a little smaller in size than expected but they had a very nice crispy dough and nice soft curry potato and peas flavor inside. I think if I were to return, I would come for lunch. That dinner price is hard to swallow for take-out.

Beef kabob, rice and salad. Lunch serving. Very delicious

The service was excellent. Very friendly and helpful. My order was cooked fresh after I ordered it. I had the beef kabob, rice and salad. The seasoning was very delicious Cooked to perfection.

We ordered a kebab dinner via Grub hub. We got it in about 15 minutes, so excellent service. The dinner was delicious, the beef was delicious and very tender, food was still warm. We may try the chicken next. I very much recommend them. No comments on Ambiance as we didn't go to the restaurant. If you want kebab dinner give them a try!

I bought the beef bowl and chicken bowl to go. The price difference between lunch and dinner is…read moresignificant and the only difference is a bag of chips. I ordered the food to go over the phone and it took 15-25 minutes to get ready. The serving size for protein is pretty good. I recommend coming for lunch not dinner.

I have been a customer of House of Kebab since 2017, and it has always been one of my favorite…read moreplaces to go. My husband and I actually started coming here because we received a gift certificate on our wedding day, so every visit has always been meaningful to us. Unfortunately, our most recent visit completely changed how I feel about this restaurant. Our waitress was Brenda (a middle-aged Caucasian woman with glasses). I want to be clear about who served us because my receipt also listed the name Brenda, and I would hate for another employee to receive this review by mistake. We were seated fairly quickly even though it was a very busy night and the restaurant was full. I want to say upfront that I completely respect how hard servers work, and I understand busy nights happen. However, after sitting for quite a while without anyone taking our order, I politely told Brenda that we were ready. I am diabetic and was not feeling well, so the wait was starting to affect me. Her response was, "Sorry, we're really busy tonight and there are only three of us waitressing." I understood that they might be short staffed, but at the very least she could have taken our drink order. Instead, she continued cleaning tables and serving other customers. I watched four different tables get seated after us and receive drinks, salads, and appetizers before we even placed our order. As someone who has been coming here for years, I have never felt so uncomfortable or overlooked in this restaurant. In 2026, no customer should feel that way anywhere. When our food finally came, everything arrived at once -- our hummus, salad, and entrée -- which made the experience feel rushed and poorly handled. When I asked Brenda for more napkins, she never returned to our table. We eventually had to go to the register ourselves to pay because she never brought our check. Before leaving, I explained to her how the situation made me feel. She responded with several explanations about being busy and short staffed, but that was never the real issue. The issue was the way we were treated. She forgot who we were all night but when it came to pay my tab, she definitely knew what table we were sitting at because her response was. I'll get your tab for table 3.. The food was amazing as it has always been, but sadly the service we received completely ruined the experience. After nearly nine years of coming here, this will unfortunately be my last visit.

This original location remains my recommended spot for Mediterranean food. Many Mediterranean…read morerestaurants in Fresno County are Armenian-owned, while only a small handful--like this family-run restaurant--specialize in Lebanese cuisine. Lebanese food is widely considered among the best expressions of Mediterranean cooking due to its vibrant use of fresh ingredients, particularly herbs, lemon, garlic, and olive oil, along with a strong emphasis on healthy, plant-based, and grilled dishes. It offers diverse, shareable, and nutrient-dense options such as tabbouleh, hummus, and falafel, making it both flavorful and nutritious. I always enjoy dining at Golden Grill because they exemplify Lebanese cuisine so well. Their dishes highlight fresh herbs like mint and parsley, along with garlic and lemon juice, rather than relying heavily on spices. The result is a light, refreshing, and aromatic flavor profile that feels both vibrant and balanced. The kebabs are excellent. The grilled cubes of beef, chicken, and kafta (ground beef and lamb) skewers are flavorful, tender, and juicy, topped with herbs and grilled to perfection. They carry a subtle smokiness and savory aroma, and the meats are beautifully charred with vibrant color. Their pita and saj sandwiches are also very well done. Each sandwich is warm and carefully assembled, forming a sturdy pocket filled with high-quality ingredients. They combine savory meats (or falafel and vegetables), creamy sauces, and crunchy pickles and onions into a balanced bite. The bread holds generous fillings without collapsing while still being tender enough to bite through easily. The pocket opens cleanly, creating the perfect pouch for the ingredients. For a small restaurant with limited seating that appears to receive many to-go orders, the presentation for dine-in guests is especially thoughtful. The dishes are served on clean white ceramic plates and trays, with the food carefully arranged and portions balanced. It is simple yet elegant and visually appealing. Golden Grill also captures the Lebanese mezze-style dining experience. As someone of Korean heritage, I appreciate this approach, since it is similar to how Korean meals are served with many shared dishes that provide variety in every meal. Some of the shared plates include Lebanese staples like hummus, falafel, tabbouleh, baba ghanouj, and fresh flatbread. Everything here tastes fresh and well-prepared, with distinct textures and aromatic flavors. The signature entrées come with two cold appetizers. The hummus is silky smooth, a velvety blend of garbanzo beans and tahini that almost melts in your mouth. The baba ghanouj is creamy, garlicky, and finished with olive oil. The tabbouleh is bright and balanced with lemon juice, garlic, and a generous drizzle of olive oil that ties together the citrusy and earthy flavors. The restaurant itself is clean, with tables and chairs wiped down quickly after guests leave. Service is friendly, welcoming, and helpful when placing orders. Prices are also reasonable, especially considering many competing Mediterranean restaurants do not place the same emphasis on presentation or on creating a mezze-style dining experience at no additional cost. While some may prefer other Mediterranean cuisines, I personally enjoy the fresh, light, and diverse flavors that Lebanese food offers. Golden Grill's citrus-forward dishes and extensive mezze options make it one of my favorite Mediterranean spots.

This is our go to spot for grilled meat, hummus, naan. The meat has great flavor, its juicy, cooked just right! The hummus is the best one we've had in fresno (and we've tried alot). We always order our food and pick it up, we haven't eaten it there in the restaurant but i dont see that being a problem if we did decide. We love eating grilled meat Golden Grill never disappoints! We will always come here for our grilled meat, we know its gonna come out just the way we like it. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone. We have tried this cedar location and the one on Willow and both have wonderful customer service and great food!

She was also very accommodating, letting me take my time and checking in on customers to make sure everything was going well. She also spoke Spanish, which is a plus because there were a lot of Spanish-speaking customers. I ordered the mixed shawarma bowl with half rice and half salad and went to sit down in their beautiful, clean dining area. The seats were very colorful and a lot of them had traditional fabric laid on the top that just added to the vibe. I also loved the customer chalkboard that they had to write your favorite dishes, which I did. Sooner or later, my bowl arrived, and it was packed to the brim. The garlic sauce is always soooo good, and I devoured about half of the bowl before I was full enough and took the rest to go. I also grabbed a beef shawarma plate for my dad on the way out - delicious!
