If you are unsure about trying new cuisine, jump off the fence and come dine at this little gem. Taz welcomes folks in with abundant enthusiasm about his wife, Ayesha's culinary delights. When my husband and I went, Taz was available to offer suggestions and answer questions. And you can see the passion he has for sharing his love of food. We were one of three tables who had never been and we were each greeted like new friends. I highly suggest going on the weekend to get the butter chicken on special. My husband loved his lamb kebabs and although he has never liked Hummus before, he nearly licked the plate. Our server Jason was prompt and kind and we are surely going to return. Oh and we noticed that the two folks on what looked like a first date were still there after we left and went grocery shopping! I have the feeling they will both be back too. read more

Absolutely wonderful restaurant and staff. It was our first time visiting and we received wonderful recommendations. Everything we had was delicious and the baklava is the best I've ever had. We're from out of town, but I'd drive up just to eat here again read more

Our regular spot now! I'm telling you, we have to eat here at least once a week. Thank goodness we have booths at the Vintage Garage Antiques so we are in town often. Lol Brought friends this time. One day I'll try something other than the beef, but my friend got the lamb curry and did the happy dance with every bite! That made me so happy that others got the same feelings we get here! And Taz!!! He is just amazing out front treating and personalizing your experience there. It's always lovely to see the brains and beauty behind this place when she comes out, but honestly, without her, the food would not be as amazing as it is, freshly made to order, perfectly! Thank you for being the amazing humans you are feeding us quite often. I'm gonna need frequent flyer miles or a bakers dozen card soon. lol Nothing but love!!!! read more

Fresh! flavorful! Owner is so welcoming. I love falafel & this is some of the best I've had. read more

I'd give 6 Stars if I could. The place is a mom and pop shop, and is fantastic. Dad (Taz) runs the front of house and Mom is the cook. I don't know her name but she is the star of the show. The food is absolutely fabulous. I ordered the special of the day, the Butter Chicken. I've never had butter chicken at a Turkish restaurant and it was absolutely delicious. It is not the same as butter chicken from an Indian restaurant, and in my opinion it's better. We also ordered some lamb strips. They were absolutely delicious also and came with a really delicious creamy sauce. This sauce doesn't have a name but I figured they should call it the Taz sauce. I don't know if it'll stick but it should. The place was perfectly clean and the service was really top notch. The two servers we had were both young high School aged or college-aged kids did a fantastic job. The owner, Taz, came out, welcomed us, and made us feel right at home. I highly, highly, highly recommend this place. BTW, Taz let me know that all of their daily specials are always gluten free. He mentioned this because I happen to have Celiac disease and he wanted to make sure that they could accommodate me. read more

We had a really disappointing experience today at Kabobolicious. Our group included 3 adults and young children. We were planning to order full meals and support the business. However, we were refused service simply because my 7-year-old had a small kids meal from Your Pie with her. She's a picky eater and wouldn't eat anything on the menu but we have been making small gains and she had planned to try hummus for the fist time. There was no attempt to work with us or show understanding, just a flat refusal. As a result, they lost not only our order, but also the continued support of 3 separate families. I completely understand restaurant policies, but a little flexibility and compassion--especially toward a child--go a long way. Unfortunately, this experience felt unnecessarily rigid and unwelcoming. We won't be returning. We will continue to support our other local businesses who show grace and understanding. Of note: I did ask before entering with the child and food. The staff said "he wont go for that." That says enough to me to steer clear. read more

We're in town for a family wedding and when it came time for dinner I knew looking through Yelp would help find a really good place to eat. I never expected to find such a wonderful authentic Turkish/Mediterranean restaurant in this lovely small town in Georgia. The inside was simply decorated and very clean. The employees were so friendly and the owner came over several times to talk, tell us about the homemade, healthy food they served and ask if we were enjoying our meals. We felt very welcomed and knew we made a great choice. Two of us had the Lamb curry special.... tender boneless chunks of lamb, rice and a small salad on the side. My husband and I had the Adana platter with lamb kebabs, soft pita bread, salad and white sauce. Everything was perfectly cooked and seasoned and hot and fresh. We were all too full for dessert but they offered homemade kunafe(?) , baklava and ice cream. read more

My son said, this is my new favorite Resturant. He likes the Kabobs and the Gyro isn't bad either. The host / owner was very pleasant and insured we were all having a good experience. A must try for the area when you get tired of all the chicken restaurants and hamburgers. read more

I very rarely give a five Star rating as I save those for places that really blow me away. This was one of them! Owner meets you and seats you, discusses everything with you if needed and says his wife is the sole cook and they do everything fresh and from scratch. I let him pick mine and my wife had the chicken and rice. She is very picky so I was a tad afraid she wouldn't like it but she ate it all as did I on my sampler platter. Then came the best baklava I have ever had with pistachio ice cream. There really is not anything else I can say, if I'm back in town, I'm back here! read more

This place was an absolute pleasure. The dining experience was A+. The restaurant was very clean, spacious and had a nice vibe. The staff were pleasant and the owner came by several times to check in with us. Our food was served promptly, well prepared and was extremely tasty. We got the potato balls as an appetizer and the adana special was our main course. Both were excellent. One of the best dining experiences I have had in the past decade. My family will be back whenever we are in town. read more

Our new server was a little distracted but kind and gracious. It was a fairly quiet setting. We ordered the lamb kabob platter to split. It was plenty of food for both of us. Probably the best lamb I've had since leaving the Middle East. read more

Best food in northern Georgia hands down. The wife and I traveled from Atlanta to visit the local waterfalls, every place we stopped to eat was overpriced and horrible. This place was amazing, the service was great, everything is hand made. Can't recommend it enough. read more

Love the gyro meat salad! Yummy humus and Homemade ice cream! Nicest owners and staff! Something different for our area. read more

This was a great find. We haven't been to Clarksville before. Just wanted to take a look and find a great local restaurant. The folks were very nice and friendly. The food was awesome. Full of flavor and just the right portion size. The place is laid out well and has a feeling of Turkey. The Baklava was possible the best I've ever had. We've traveled extensively in Europe and the US. The food is really that good. If I lived in Clarksville, this would be my regular stop! read more

It's been so long since I have had actual, GENUINE, Greek food up in North GA. This place is phenomenal. First off you're met by the owner, who seats you and is genuinely curious about how you are. The human element. Boy is that missing elsewhere. But let's get to the food. Everything. I mean everything was fresh, homemade, and delicious. The beef kabobs were so tender it melted in my mouth, and I even got a special, lemon pepper curry to go. Oh, ask about the specials! They change all the time and are a real taste of Mediterranean to middle eastern to Indian. One of a kind place in our small corner of paradise. read more

Super nice staff and owner. Relaxing atmosphere. Food is definitely authentic Mediterranean and spot on perfect. A recommended stop.

Let me just start by saying it's a 17 Hour Dr. from where I live and I've thought about making the trip just to eat here again! The food was absolutely delicious. It was as if I was at their home being cooked for by a grandmother who made it with complete and total love! The food was fresh and felt like a warm hug, will definitely be back! read more

Everything tastes amazing! The ambiance and service are great too. We visit Clarkesville a few times a year and always stop for dinner at this local gem. Hard to believe a small town is so lucky to have authentic Turkish cuisine! read more

Find of the weekend for me was in Clarksville... yes, Clarksville! @kabob_licious is ran by Taz and his wonderful wife, serving up some amazing MEDITERRANEAN/TURKISH food that you'd never think would be found on this side of Georgia. They opened 6 months ago but something tells me that if they keep serving up the food that they do with the customer service that they provide, they'll be just fine. Pictured here... BUTTER CHICKEN: Safe to say this is the best butter chicken I've ever had ADANA OVER RICE: Rice, white sauce with a beef kabob HONEY GARLIC WINGS: Because who doesn't want to try WINGS HUMMUS: Again... probably the best hummus I've had POTATO BALLS: These were DELICIOUS on their own or with their sauce. I could eat these all day. Perfectly fried CHICKEN BITES: One word comes to mind.... TENDER!! These bites hit the spot with their sauce but their tenderness made me go "whoa...." TURKISH TEA: Good solid tea with an awesome mug of Taz If you're in the area and looking for GOOD food and good service, check them out and make sure you order the potato balls as your appetizer!! I need to go back and try the rest of their menu #rolieats #goodeats #supportlocalbusiness #mediterraneanfood #turkishfood #clarkesville #kaboblicious #butterchicken #beefkabob #potatoballs #hummus #chickenbites #wings #turkishtea #allsogood #whatsnext read more

An impressive addition to the small town of Clarkesville where the food speaks volumes and stands on it's own. I had the pleasure of happening upon this beautiful Turkish restaurant when I was debating the long drive to Halal Guys, and I was/still am pleasantly surprised. We sat down and had the Adana Rice plates and Hummus appetizer, I ordered the beef my dining companion ordered the chicken. The hummus was full of flavor, fresh made in house, and served with delicious pillow soft pita bread 10/10 would recommend trying. The Adana rice plates were just as delicious, beautiful fluffy flavorful rice, fantastic kebabs seasoned/cooked beautifully, and served with a side of crunchy fresh seasoned vegetables. The experience was so good I returned in a few days and had their butter chicken, which unsurprisingly is fantastic. This is a lovely spot run by a husband and wife dedicated to serving great fresh food, stellar service, and unique food in beautiful north Georgia. Happy to have them as an addition to our community, and strongly encourage giving this place a chance. read more

This place is a show stopper. I came here on a Saturday night to try this out after hearing so many great reviews. This place is amazing. The outside and inside look amazing. They have a place for a date night area to seat in. We started off with the potatoe bites appetizer and it really set the pace for the whole meal. It was so full of flavor and seasoning that we gobbled them up asap. For entrees we got the Adana special with beef and their weekend special of butter chicken. Normally we have to drive hours to Atlanta area to get this kind of wow factor for Mediterranean food. It was so good and fresh. The hummus and Adana special were seasoned well and had a great contrast between savory and delightful. Their butter chicken was some of the very best if not the best I've ever had hands down. Finally the baklava tasted amazing and we will 100% be back next week if not sooner. It's seriously that good. read more
