From the moment we walked in, the owner was incredibly welcoming. He spoke enthusiastically about his food and gave us recommendations, which made the ordering process so enjoyable. There was a child, who was adorably helpful and took our order. While we waited for our food, we were served a complementary lentil soup, which was peppery, warm and delicious. If it was on the menu, I would've bought a quart. I ordered the Qabuli Palao with chicken shawarma as my protein of choice. The rice was perfectly seasoned and loaded with shredded carrots and raisins. The chicken shawarma was deeply marinated, cooked perfectly, and bursting with flavor without being overly salty. As a side dish to my order they include their unique hummus. It was light and airy with a distinct flavor that I loved. It was definitely different than the standard hummus you find elsewhere. I wish I knew their secret recipe. My husband thoroughly enjoyed his marinated chicken kabob plate, commenting on the quality of the meat and the great overall taste. Dessert was baklava because the ferni pistachio pudding was sold out. The owner proudly pointed out that they create their baklava in house and it's baked daily. Though I'm not usually a fan, my husband loved it, and even I have to admit theirs was fantastic. I was sad to hear the mantu (dumplings) are no longer on the regular menu because they take a long time to steam, and customers often got impatient. I will definitely be calling ahead next time to see if I can place a special advance order, as it's my favorite Afghani dish. Thank you to the owner and his sweet family for the excellent food and wonderful service. We will absolutely be back. Shout out to Belinda C. for the great review!
Kabob Village has a very kind, hospitable, generous, and thoughtful owner. My sister and I shared a Combo Lamb Tikka and Chicken Shawarma plate. It comes with hummus, salad, 1 whole pita bread, and lentil soup. When I inquired how much an extra bowl of lentil soup would cost, he said he would take care of us and gave us another bowl of soup. He even offered us extra rice, which we declined because we're carb-conscious and the plate was plenty of food already. While we were there, there was a contractor or designer working with him. He was again super sweet and hospitable to her, asking her if she wanted to try Thai Milk Tea and other foods and to sample the Baklava before she bought out the tray. You get two skewers of lamb kabobs and lots of chicken shawarma. Lamb was seasoned well, tender and juicy. Lamb was my favorite. Chicken Shawarma was my sister's favorite because she preferred bite-sized pieces. Chicken is also yummy. The Lentil Soup is amazing. Thick with lots of lentils and flavorful. I probably would be content eating soup with a side of rice. The rice is not just plain white Basmati rice. It is seasoned. I imagine the Afghani rice plate of Qabili Palaw or Kabuli Pulao is even more delicious with the added ingredients of carrots, raisins, and nuts. Another Afghan specialty entree is the Mantu Dumplings. I was told you get 15 small meat & onion dumplings that fill up a plate. They are drizzled with a little yogurt and then covered with one of two different sauces, which I sadly can't remember what he said. I will definitely try this dish in the future. An Afghan version of Chana Masala is also offered at Kabob Village. It is a different and milder spice mixture than the Indian version of Chana Masala. Pistachio Ferni, a creamy rice pudding, is a dessert option, as well as Baklava. You can still buy bubble tea and some Asian dishes, like popcorn chicken, there. You order at the counter, but the food will be brought to your table and the staff will bus the table for you. Again, very hospitable. Kabob Village took over Fuji Teahouse's location in the Save Mart Plaza on Stanford Ranch Rd. It is walking distance from local schools. I have a difficult time remembering the name of the restaurant, but just search for a Mediterranean restaurant in Rocklin or on Stanford Ranch Rd. Best wishes to Kabob Village!
There is a reason this restaurant is getting lots of five star reviews. The food is fantastic and plentiful. I had the chicken shawarma with the traditional rice. The meal began with three outstanding starters, lentil soup, humus and a fresh hot pita and concluded with an absolutely addictive baclava. It is a real treat to have such a great family run restaurant close to home - but it would be worth a drive.
So glad to have found this location. Family owned delicious Mediterranean food. The portions are large. The owners are very kind and friendly. Highly recommend!
WOW we are sooo blown away by this place!!! If we could give it a 10 star rating, we would. The naan bread was perfectly toasted yet soft and fluffy on the inside. Absolutely INCREDIBLE. The chicken plates were cooked so perfectly. Also I love that it's a family business. This is seriously a place you 100% need to try. Service was great, everyone was super kind, friendly, and generous. We loved the naan bread so much that the owner just gave us more! Definitely coming back!!!
My girlfriend and I wanted boba, food, and something new! The tldr; the food was awesome, the owner was awesome, and the boba was awesome! We landed on going here to Kabob Village! At first on researching, we had been kind of confused because of all the Fuji Teahouse signage and had been wondering if Kabob Village and Fuji Teahouse were in the same building or what that was all about. Well, I can tell you it is definitely Kabob Village, Fuji Teahouse used to be located here but is no longer. That said, Kabob Village does in fact still have a Boba, Tea, and Smoothie menu (including the common boba place snacks like spring rolls and popcorn chicken)! As well as a full menu of Kabob, Gyro, Shawarma, and more! The owner was super nice and inviting, my girlfriend and I wanted to share a few things and the owner offered to split the order between the two plates so we each had a variety on our plate! Which was very considerate! He also advised that even though we did order to go, we should sit for a bit and eat the food while it was still hot off the grill for the full experience! We did take him up on that offer! While we waited for our orders we also were treated to a few spicy chicken and vegetable soups that were delicious, we both really liked the soup and it was not a part of our original main order, nice! The teas were also really good! A lot of boba places will have high sweet but less defined flavor, for me this place had a good combo of the two! We got Original and Thai and both were rich and flavorful and the boba was good fresh texture! As for the food I will say it was delicious, we got Chicken Kebab and Chicken Shawarma which came with a side salad, basmati rice, pita bread, and hummus! I can say the food was great but also the picture speaks for itself! The owner also came out and provided us with a free pistachio dessert before we left, which was well-flavored, chilled, and tasty! Anyways, the place is great so if you're on the fence I'd say just do it, you won't regret it!
My friend and I visited Kabob Village for the first time this afternoon. This is a small family owned business. We were treated like rock stars. The owner answered our questions quickly and the food arrived within minutes of ordering. The veggie soup, warm pitas, hummus, salads, meals, and dessert were all spectacular. Each dish burst with flavor! There was so much food that we both took home lots of leftovers. We will return soon and encourage everyone to try it!
Tucked back behind Taqueria Roberto in the Save Mart shopping center corner of Prak and Stanford Ranch. A gem!The food is absolutely amazing and that is why I keep coming back!! Service is top notch. Sam really cares about his customers and you feel it! Do yourself a favor and try Kebab Village!
We stopped by Kabob Village for dinner on Saturday night. We were greeted by the owner who was super friendly! I ordered the chicken shawarma and it was incredible. The chicken was so juicy (not tough at all) and packed with flavor. The sauce drizzled on top was a really nice touch. The rice was equally flavorful and paired really well with the chicken. The salad on the side was fresh and the yogurt dressing amazing. You also get a bowl of lentil soup (probably the best I've ever had) and naan. We also tried the dumplings and it was so good! They can make your food spicy if you ask for it. Everything on the menu is priced well -- you get a ton of food!! Overall this place has delicious food, great service, and we will definitely be back!
Tried this new Afghan-Mediterranean fusion spot and loved it! The food was so flavorful and good portions, plus the lamb in the shawarma plate was the best I've ever had. Sammi was extremely welcoming, and gave amazing customer service. We also got fresh hot pita with hummus and complimentary chicken chickpea soup, which made the experience even better. Definitely recommend! Best spot for shawarmas that we've tried.
Way better than Nick the Greek or any other Mediterranean place. Everything was super fresh and tasty. Came with a spicy delicious soup too.

This is seriously my favorite new(er) restaurant in the area. The food is AMAZING. The gyro and chicken shawarma are the best I've ever had. The palow rice is out of this world. The seasonal soups are always so flavor and hearty. The owners are so kind and generous and hospitable. Also, their baklava is the BEST I've had in this area, the pistachio pudding is super tasty too. Salads are huge and fresh. The pita bread always comes HOT with amazing texture. Honestly loved everything we've tried here. I'd eat here everyday if I could! read more

I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant. The food speaks for itself. Juicy kabobs and the soup is delicious. The salad is so refreshing. The taste of food I will probably forget next week, but the customer service and kindness the owners of this restaurant left me is something I will never forget. They are so kind to their customers. The world needs more people at a time like this. I will definitely be coming back here not only for the food, but for the excellent customer service and hospitality. read more

Chicken kabob and dumplings were amazing. Very flavorful. The side sauces really added to the flavor. Sometimes kabobs can dry the meat out and that was not the case here. The meat was tender and juicy. Service was very responsive. We will definitely come back for more read more
