Came here today for the fist time after a great work out. Was craving Mediterranean/Greek for awhile and my gf mentioned this place was good so did not think twice! Parking is a little small, but not impossible. Inside is clean and spacious. Good selections from the menu to choose from. My gf and I both got the chicken lula salad plate. Comes with their yummy hummus, 2 skewers of nice and moist chicken lula (ground chicken), tabbouleh, salad, and 1 pita bread. The pita was nice and warm. The salad house dressing was not my fave, a little on the spicy side. But overall good quality for the price! I would definitely come back here again, and love that its right next to our Crossfit gym! read more

Fast and friendly staff. The chicken kabab plate is what I get and it's tender and flavorful! My go kabab place

Price + Food Quality = one of the better options in Glendale for Middle Eastern food. This has a feel and look of a fast food restaurant, so I was a little wary at first, but this place exceeded my restaurant. You can get a combo plate with salad or rice, which comes with 2 sides. The garlic sauce is tasty. The yogurt spinach is awesome and the hummus is decent. Tabbouleh is pretty good. The chix luleh and beef kebab were both good. I would come here again, and would come here over a lot of places that I've been to in Glendale because of the lack of having to wait, the price, and the delicious food. read more

My go-to Glendale Kebab place. Reminiscent of the street kebabs in Armenia. Mmmmm... Walking inside, the delicious smell of roasted meat hits you right in the face. BAM. Nothing but a roasted, juicy kebab can satisfy that carnivorous rage. The food here is excellent in every way, except for the plastic plate they serve it in, but alas. Tender, juicy, mouth-watering...oh my. My favorite to order is the number 3: beef lule kabob with pickled vegetables/cabbage. There is literally no way you could go wrong with any of the orders. And each plate is really reasonably priced. A+ They recently remodeled, so it looks brand spanking new inside. Not the fanciest, but definitely better than average. I'm a fan of the cleanliness and modern-looking wood walls. read more

The food was ok, not bad but not exceptional either. Prices were quite decent. We had the beef and the chicken Lila both were good. They serve it with naan instead of lavash. Garlic sauce is great but extra. The yogurt dip was also good. The fish plate was too salty. Service was slow and one of the workers had a really bad attitude. She stacked plates where the bottom of one are is on top of the other food. Good value for the price. read more

To celebrate my elite status that I just received for 2012 I will write my 80th review. I love Kabab Way. It's on my way to central Glendale- they have a parking lot behind and if there aren't any spaces, there's plenty of residential street parking. The food is hot and fresh and because they actually cook it there and then, so don't expect it to come out in 5 seconds people. If you're insanely hungry when you get there just beware that it will take at least a good 10-15 minutes for your food to come out. But it's totally worth it. They have a lot of different combos for everyone. I especially love their beef shish kabob and chicken lula combo- get a little bit of everything (it comes with a side salad, rice, roasted tomato and warm pita). I wish they closed a little later on weekdays but it is Glendale so things don't stay open very late. If you haven't been yet, check this place out- it is one of my favorites! read more

The Armenian cuisine is great. The meal portion size is plentiful. Our lunch group was stuffed and the customer service is their number one priority! read more

Kabab Way - #26 Meal Selection - Middle Eastern Near Me - Glendale, California

The food here is EXCELLENT! Everything iv had here is great. The chicken lula is the best one iv had so far compared to most of the kabob places iv tried. If I'm really hungry I go for the chicken soltani, the chicken is always juicy. The beef lula is really good too. If I want something on the lighter side I'll go for the chicken or beef lula hummus plate or sandwich. The people are always very nice and are accommodating to substitutions. The pricing makes it even more worth it, best prices if came across in the 12335 kabob places in the Glendale area. I also love that they give u a warm piece of pita and not dry lavash, a huge plus in my book. I wish I could do half stars or I'd give this place 4 and a half stars, because I think they could use a little sprucing in the dining area, one review compared the ambiance to a carls jr, which is pretty accurate, but if you order for take out, then this will not be an issue. Also wished they had delivery *sigh* read more

I LOVE the Chicken Lula Kabob. It comes with lots of chicken, a salad, rice and pita. I also LOVE the tomatoe & cucumber salad and can probably eat it daily. I usually order the hummus on the side and its not my favorite hummus in the world but I do like the smooth texture of it. Good and prompt service, highly recommended. read more

So my first time to a all-plate no-wraps place. I asked a lot "if" questions but they weren't too flexible. I ordered a chicken sultani and beef sultani for me and my husband. Price was not so good when it comes to sultani but if normal plates they were more or less the same as Elena. Taste was pretty good. The meat was fresh and well-seasoned. One thing I don't like is that most of their combos don't have hummus (and I love hummus). II had to order extra for hummus (it's better than Elena's hummus)Besides that ,everything was good. The quality of rice was better than Elena but taste not as good. Honestly I prefer Elena myself but I think they really are more or less the same. The reason I gave Elena five stars is definitely because of the hummus~~ read more

Is it Kabob, Kabeb, Kabab, Kebab.... I've seen it spelled differently everywhere in Glendale. It's interesting for sure. I love their food! It's easy, fast, cheap, and most importantly delicious juicy meats! I wish they would open 'til midnight, hey it's a suggestion... I think they would get a lot of business esp Fri & Sat Who would want to go to a crappy fast food joint when they can have freshly made food for the same price. I sure don't! read more

The fast food of kabob joints. Variety's set on four food items with different add ons: rice, lula, hummus, rice, or salad. Not huge on variety and the prices seem a little steep based on the quantity you receive, but all in all still tasty. Good portion of hummus n flat bread. Lots of rice and salad. I had the beef kabob, which was tender n tasty. The ground chicken item was very flavorful as well and came w/an addictive yogurt/spinach dip great to use w/the bread after your meal. read more

I've been coming to get take out from Kabab Way since 2013, when I attended the middle school across the street, and their food has been consistently great over the years. I am always full after each meal! I get the #10 Chicken Breast Shish and the flavor is always amazing. Kabab Way is a must-stop for me every time I am back in town. The service quality can fluctuate from time to time but I have never found it that bad. Plus the food and value more than make up for any lackluster service you may get. read more

It was sad when the old place sold the restaurant to kabob way back in .... 2006 ish but , I'm loving this place now !!! It starts with a simple interior set up with nice and friendly Armenian / Russian cashiers. You have variety of menu options to choose from. The menu board is crisp since they are all pictures !! I love it ! Down side to that is .. if you do want to know exactly what certain sandwich or dish has, you have to ask because it doesn't provide descriptions ... But whatever's for glendalian like me who is very very familiar with the Armenian food culture ! They didn't have it back then but they got veggie sandwich with dolma !! The picture looked like it had eggplant in them so I asked and the girl kindly told me it's dolma. I love dolma with all my life lol I didn't really go here often since I thought it was nothing special but ooooh dolmas have me going lol I'm definitely coming back maybe come here every month ? We will see since it's not thatttt over priced ! :) I forgot to put .. Other dishes like the meat selections are really good too.. You can't go wrong with shish kabob .. Also if you're the type that always gets sandwiches, you should try their dish to taste their Mediterranean rice !! It has slight hint of garlic flavor that's not overpowering and little bit of buttery taste in your mouth. read more

Food takes forever to be ready. They bring plates little by little so now half of us are done eating and the other half is still waiting for their food. Waiter giving attitude. So frustrating. Food is pretty good. read more

Found this place over a year ago and it was great but lately is has gone downhill. The Food is still pretty good, not as good as it used to be but still good value for money. The last time I was in we found none of the tables had been bused and the lady cashier was fairly unpleasant and got my order wrong. No longer a great dining experience. Hope they can turn it around or will have to look for a new kebab place. read more

Good kabab place!! Great food. Good prices. Excellent quality. No heart burn!!!! :-) You won't regret it. read more

I love this place. They have a sign outside that says no heartburn lol I thought it was very funny so I have to try. I noticed one thing soon as I ordered it not really at all. Especially for Middle Eastern kabob. After I had their chicken shish I left no heartburn. I came back a week later figure it out right there red meat. See if maybe heartburn exist and that. Apparently not!!! This place knows what they're doing when it comes down to marinating meat cooking it correctly and not spice and everything up. I recommend you try the yogurt and cucumber. read more

Kabab Way - When they mean no heartburn they mean no heart burn - Middle Eastern Near Me - Glendale, California

See all

Not my favorite place. Everything was just OK. Think fast-food Greek cuisine and that's what it is. I gave it two stars because I think it's a tad on the expensive side. I came here on a Sunday, and the place wasn't busy, but wasn't dead. The chicken lula was moist and so was the beef, but the rice for some reason wasn't working for me. Anyway, I don't recommend it. read more

First of all I know we all are going through a hard time right now specially with the regulatory standards in restaurants and public areas. Well I came to the restaurant with my mom and right behind us there was a guys with no mask on and they told him he most wear one to GET IN and order, witch I'm ok with. I got my food and I was standing by the soda machine and I saw a guy coming from the back part of their kitchen and guess what? He wasn't wearing a mask, weird isn't? I continued looking and I saw employees walking without one! and it was clear that they were doing preparation. I have been going to different restaurants and they are really strict about it because you are handling food. I like this restaurant but I just don't get why they are letting that going on with their employees but they are telling costumers to STEP OUTIDE and wear one like that guy next to us. You easily can tell when someone cares not only about their health but the health of others. read more

The food is really good; I've been to Elena's Greek Armenian right in front of this place, and I must say I prefer Kabab Way. Meals run from $5 to $12, if I remember correctly, and quantity is decent for american stomachs (we tend to overeat). It's a really nice place to grab a bite when you don't feel like doing anything at home. Not the fanciest place, but service is quick, staff are decent, restaurant is clean. read more

I used to come here back when it first opened yeas ago. The food then and service was great. Since then, my recent encounters have not been the best. I placed an order early in the morning to pick up at 5:30. Around 4:50 i call and mention im in traffic and if i can pick up at 6 to which they said yes no problem. I get there a few mins before 6 and had to wait 30 mins more for them to start prepping everything all while these teens working and the cooks were yelling at each other. Then the dressing ends up spilling on my way to the car so i had to wait longer. I was already annoyed because i was hosting a party and the food wasnt even ready for the time we agreed on over the phone. I get to my destination and they completely forgot my rice tray that i paid for. I call and they tell me to come back to which i did and had to wait long again. It was a really big inconvenience and this experience really left a bad taste in my mouth for this spot. This is consistent whenever the young adults are working. The real warriors are the unseen people in the dark back room, the dishwashers and such. They should be out manning the registers and ovens because i'm certain they would give it their all and not act like brothers and sisters arguing loudly where people can see as they eat. unfortunate for this place as it once was a go to. read more

Best kebob on town considering $5.75 a plate. Just to point out the rice issue.. It's Persian rice not Asian lol. Also., the garlic I ordered was free as long as you don't ask for LARGE.. See picture of the garlic sauce I uploaded. read more

Kabab Way - Garlic Sauce.. Yummy.. - Middle Eastern Near Me - Glendale, California

Instead of going to the Glendale Galleria food court and waiting in line for the Mediterranean Grill and paying $15 dollars for a combination plate, you can come to Kabob Way to get a better deal for HALF the price, this place is great. The staff there is really friendly and if you eat there they take your meal to the table. It is sort of a "fast food" restaurant but everything is made fresh. I usually get the Beef Lula Kabob combination, it's $6.50 a plate with 2 long strips of beef, rice, salad, grilled tomatoes and onions. There's a lot of different combinations, sides, etc. to choose from, so your options are endless. The amount of food they give full-filling and doesn't leave you insatisfied. I will definitely always come here, especially if I'm craving middle eastern food. read more

My favorite Mediterranean joint! I was recommended this place about 7 years ago by my good Armenian buddy. This guy has been to many of the Kabab places in Glendale and he said this was the one. My favorite dish is the Chicken Sultani plate (Chicken Shish and Chicken Lula [ground chicken]). The Chicken has always been very juicy and tasty. The Armenian Hummus is also probably the best I've had and the Garlic Sauce...FORGET ABOUT IT.....MAD DELISH!!!!! A little goes a long way. The house salad is solid and the rice (jasmine?) is cooked to perfection. I have also randomly had the Chicken Sandwhich when I was on the run one day.....quite delish also! DAT BREAD DOE. This place is legendary. If an Armenian recommended it and Armenians go there, then that's a good sign for me. read more

Wonderful service. I want to say special thanks to farah and siuna for always smiling and providing wonderful service. These young ladies and Amazing. Chicken lula Sandwhich is wonderful with wonderful flavor. I Love you kabab way. Amazing service and food! read more

This place is great, me and my gf find ourselves constantly coming back here. The prices are right on and the food is always delicious, yet really speedy. I don't know what else to say! It's just great across the board. I'm glad it's here! read more

So I used to eat here every week and thought it was a good lunch alternative to Mini Kebab where you'll have to wait; that is until today!! Ordered #9 chix lula and chix kabob plate, got back to the office sat down anticipating yummy goodness but instead something smelled off. Thinking it's just me I took a bite of the chix kabob it tasted off like extra gamey (spoiled chix) and then the rice really smelled musky. You know the musk when you don't rinse rice before you cook it? So a plate of spoiled chix and un-rinsed rice into the garbage! Sorry Kabab Way you lost a regular from now on Mini Kebab! read more

Must say I would never walk into a place like this but someone had food catered from here and I had to try it... Turns out, they are great! The price is very good for the amount of food. It fills you up and it tastes great. They use quality food! I have been coming here now at least once every two weeks. Try it! You will love it! read more

I've been visiting this place for years. It's a great spot for a quick meal. Delicious food and fast service. Excellent choices and good prices. read more

Kabab Way - Chicken kabob with hummus and taboule - Middle Eastern Near Me - Glendale, California

One of the best chicken kabobs in Glendale. And very affordable. I just had the chicken breast kabob salad which comes with green salad, tahbouli salad and pita. I get both the house dressing and the ranch and mix them-Delicious! Super homemade fastfood! And healthy too. I'm a regular and i highly recommend for a quick, affordable, casual meal. read more

I hate writing bad reviews but if there was a 0 store I would gladly give them that. Beside all that which the service was horribly slow ( it took them forever to get a simple order ready even thu place was empty) the costumer service was horrible ( after ordering and waiting aside the cashier is like "what do you want something else!" Are you serious!!!! Then after 30 min waiting she yells from the kitchen "do you want any sauce!!! And unprofessional staff. The food was hooooribleeeeee!!! I'm just hoping they didn't put dog meat in their lula kabab. The lula kabab was like chewing on plastic ( actually I'm pretty sure plastic would taste much better then that). It smells awful, it wasn't cooked as it supposed to be, & it was marinated horrible with no salt no spice!!! Their shish kabab was the same also. NO TASTE at all!!! Oh and the store itself!! Just look above your head n take a look at the lights that they put in! The cheapest way they could get it done! they didn't even put a cap on the wires or tape the wires when they connected their 99cent bulb sockets to the main wires. If you really want to get a kabab just go few blocks up to Raffie's place, Cafe Bravo, Shamshiri restaurant, Shiraz restaurant, Nerses Vanak or any other kabab places in town beside here. ( the prices might be couple $'s higher but you will definitely get much higher quality, gourmet food with much bigger portions, and again waaaayyyyy better quality, & oh & way better costumer service. not Kabab way!!!) read more

Decided to hit up Glendale with my Armenian folks cause lets face it they party hard, well needed a bite, stop by the kabob spot let me tell u how flavorful this steak was 10\10, dropped a star cause wasn't offered the combo, but lady gave me exactly what i asked for so no complaint, be specific what u want how u want it n what your looking for taste, then i bet the og in the back will provide an amazing treat. duces will go back! read more

Alone, hungry, and feeling adventurous I drove over to Glendale for lunch one day. To my surprise Glendale is like being in Armenia. Everywhere I looked there were Armenian markets and people blasting techno out of their cars. I felt like I had stumbled upon gold. After doing a loop through town a few times I settled on Kabab Way No Heartburn Original Shish Kabab. Genius name. Heartburn has plagued me my whole life, and with all the garlic I was about to consume, I was ready to put Kabab Way up to the No Heartburn challenge. I ordered the chicken lula kabab on salad with sides of hummus and spinach yogurt dip. The lula kabab was a hit and the salad was a miss. I did eat all of the salad but only because each bite was with kabab. The hummus was smoky with a healthy kick of garlic. The spinach and yogurt sauce is fast becoming one of my favorite things to eat. I would lather this stuff on almost anything. The restaurant itself is pretty bare bones. A bunch of fast food style tables and a flat screen blasting Jim Cramer's Mad Money. Not the right environment for a long lunch. To Kabab Way's credit an hour after my meal I did not have heartburn. I also wasn't burping up garlic, as is usually the case when I eat kabab. I felt great. When in Glendale one must try Kabab Way No Heartburn for a quick meal. I can't wait to go back and see what else the Armenians are cooking over there. read more

Amazing food. Amazing service (even if it is a order at front place). They are fast, professional, on the ball, not intrusive, polite and efficient. This place really IS as good as it gets. I will be back. read more

I was surprised that the beef shish was moist and tender! (sadly i'd gotten used to getting dry shish kabobs) The chicken lula and the beef lula are pretty good as well. The little salad that comes with most dishes is fresh but it is little. The ranch dressing here is pretty good too. The hummus is okay. I didn't think it was anything amazing. However the small hummus comes with a really good amount of hummus for a small, which is always a plus for a fatty like me. What I most love about this place is their rice. It's slightly salty, very moist but not sticky, and it's just absolutely yummm! Oh, and they give you a pretty large portion of it too! Definitely recommend this place:) read more

Love it! It's far from me but I make the pilgrimage because they are really good. Great portions and the beef lule (sp?) Kabab is my favorite. I wish they had something closer in the valley. Hint... read more

Very nice and tasty chicken kabab and also rise. Special thanks for hummus. I didn't like the salad but the rest of the food good

An excellent takeout spot! Food comes out hot, fresh, and fast! Been here several times and enjoyed the food and service! Highly recommend.

I've gone to kabab way for years and the quality and taste of the food is consistently good. I'm providing a low star rating because the staff and cooks do not wear masks. I ordered takeout today from Kabab Way and neither the cook, the two cashiers or the manager were wearing masks. I was pretty shocked. I'm going to pass on ordering from Kabab Way until we get through COVID. read more
