Been here twice. The food is excellent. They actually don't over cook the chicken. Salad has been fresh. Good service. read more

It took me way too long to come back to this Mediterranean restaurant. The set up is still the same. I went at an "off" time between lunch and dinner so there was no one else there, but several people came in for take out. There was nice music playing in the background that I enjoyed. I got a lamb kabob with rice and salad and a pita. It was served quickly and was hot when I received it...literally just off the grill. Lamb is hard to get right but these guys really hit the spot. It was full of flavor and spiced just right. The salad and dressing were fresh . I'm glad I stopped here and will not take so long to return again. read more

This spot is solid. If you're looking for food that's delicious, fresh, and won't make you question your life choices afterward, this is the place. The quality and portions are excellent--no skimpy skewers, no mystery meat. It genuinely reminds me of the Persian and Afghani kebab shops in Northern Virginia that know their way around a charcoal grill. Everything tastes clean, well-seasoned, and cooked with intention. A couple of small suggestions (because nothing is perfect): I'd love to see a wider variety of sauces for the kebabs, and personally, I'd prefer a larger piece of taftoon bread instead of the pita slices. That said--credit where it's due--the pita tastes fresh and not like it was pulled straight from a plastic bag, which already puts them ahead of most places. Bottom line: this is the best kebab spot I've found in the area, hands down. Highly recommend--and yes, I'll absolutely be back. read more

I've eaten here before and they weren't bad but today was ridiculous. I ordered the beef shawrma wrap pictured with fries for 11.99 on Doordash.. It was about 7.99 on their site. Fine I can't leave so I ordered 2 wraps an falafel $40 including tip. Ok no problem. Except there are no fries. Whose paying $12 for a single skewer that is bland as heck? Shawrma has flavor. I understand things are in the crapper right now but being overcharged for some BS is exactly that BS. Unless u want to pay $20 to add some fries go somewhere else.. Yes their platters start at $18.99. Total waste of money. read more

Kebab Skewer - This is what's pictured, but not what u get. - Kebab Near Me - Cary, North Carolina

After enjoying Baba Ghannouj Mediterranean Bistro in Cary last week, my girl & I decided to explore another kebab/gyro restaurant in Cary, so we went to Kebab Skewer & dined in on a Saturday night. This is located close to Milklab, which I also reviewed here on Yelp. My girl ordered a gyro wrap, then the young adult cashier asked if we wanted to add fries & drink for additional $3+. She asked if she can swap the fries for another side: baba ghannouj, our favorite Mediterranean side dish, and the cashier said she can. The menu overhead is clear, so we didn't have trouble deciding what to order. I ordered the Kebab Platter - Double Skewer that comes with salad, rice, a tiny cup of tzatziki, a tiny cup of salad dressing, and pita bread. Platter costs $15.99 + additional $1.99 because I chose lamb kebab. We also ordered the 4-piece falafel & a lamb kofta skewer. Total cost was about $50+. As always, we tried each other's foods, split the falafel & lamb kofta. The lamb gyro wrap was delicious with fresh meat, lettuce, tomatoes, and tzatziki sauce. The few bites I had of the gyro were pure bliss; part of me wish I ordered a gyro wrap too, but I wanted us to have different orders. The baba ghannouj that came with her gyro was excellent unlike what we tried from Baba Ghannouj Mediterranean Bistro (BGM Bistro). The texture of the mashed eggplant and mix of spices were perfect, and the amount was good enough for the 2 of us to share. I also enjoyed my double skewer lamb kebab platter. The salad was fresh, the basmati rice wasn't as sopisticated as other spiced varieties but it went well with the lamb kebab, fresh from the grill. However, for an $18+ meal, wish it included another small side like baba ghannouj. BGM Bistro's platters let you choose 2 sides along with the rice and salad for about the same price, so you get more value there but the baba ghannouj tastes better here. Falafel is a good-tasting side, about the same quality as BGM Bistro's. It comes with tahini sauce. The lamb kofta skewer, which looks like a sausage, was well-spiced and went well with tzatziki. Our orders were served in less than 12 min, and we had to pick up our trays at the front when they were ready instead of bringing to our table. It looks like this is the kind of place that's better for take out than dine in as the ambiance isn't inviting. There was one area where the floor was left uncleaned and the dull illumination of the fluorescent lights inside doesn't make this restaurant ideal for a romantic date. We were somewhat satisfied with our dinner with the gyro and baba ghannouj being the highlights. Lamb kebab & lamb kofta tasted good but I don't think the whole platter is worth $18+. We might alternate BGM Bistro & this as each has their own pros & cons. Or we might explore another we haven't tried before. read more

Yum, just yum! I'm happy I've finally made my way to Kebab Skewer, and I'm sorry it took me this long to check it out. This place has got some tasty eats and I'm destined to go back and check out more menu items. For lunch. I grabbed a spicy chicken shawarma wrap, plus the two desserts pictured: homemade ma'amoul and baklava. Delicious! And very inexpensive compared to other restaurants (albeit, the baklava is on the smaller side). The spicy shawarma wrap was moist and consistently flavorful throughout. The bread was tasty and the ratio of ingredients was spot on. The deserts were crumbly (ma'amoul) and flaky (baklava), and sweet. The restaurant itself is a basic spot in a strip mall, geared more towards takeout. Lots of takeout ready for pickup when I was there around noon. The staff was super friendly and inviting, creating a great atmosphere. read more

Came here in a Saturday around 13o and we were the only ones. Not a good sign. It's a counter service place with typical seating. Nothing special. The food however was a different story. We had the kebab platters are they were well executed. Lamb and chicken were on point and the pita bread was the flat homemade variety that was very good. Definitely worth giving it a try if you're in the mood for Med. on the go to list. read more

I believe this restaurant my be under new management/ownership, I'm not certain, but I can say that it used to be really good. I went in for lunch and ordered the smash burger. We all know that a lot of pictures that companies display never really represent there food, but this may be the grosses misrepresentation I've ever seen. Even the written menu would be misleading in my opinion. To say I was disappointed is an understatement. read more

Great food, good prices. The wait to get our order seemed way too long and we were the only ones in the resturaunt. It was pretty quiet and my friend and I were able to talk without having to fight over other voices. However the food is delicious here so the wait didn't bother me too much and I was not in a hurry. The bathrooms really needed cleaning. There was no toilet paper. read more

Kebab Skewer - Greek Salad worh Chicken Kebab Skewer (Meat Only) - Kebab Near Me - Cary, North Carolina

We had a craving for some Mediterranean food and decided to check out a kebab place we hadn't been to yet. I got the Chicken kabob platter which comes with rice, yogurt sauce, a side salad and pita bread. The chicken was very moist and had a good flavor to it. The hubs ordered the beef Koobideh platter. It came with the same sides as mine. He felt that it was just...meh as it really had no flavor. He said that it might as well have been rolled meatloaf for all he knew. Needless to say, he has definitely had much better. We both agreed that the rice was not like any we have had at other Mediterranean restaurants. Neither of us could really put our finger on what was so different about it. The pita bread was very bland and tasted like it was store bought. It wasn't a horrible meal but it also wasn't the best meal we have had. read more

This had become one of our regular lunch spots. The spicy chicken shwarma is freaking delicious! I always ask for extra garlic sauce - it makes the dish. The hummus is fantastic and has me craving more. The bread, rice, salad, gyro, and cheese steak all keep us coming back. My picky elderly dad even loved it! The last time we were there, an elderly couple was too. They obviously struggled with mobility. Instead of just calling out their completed order for pick-up, the staff left the kitchen and walked the food to their table. It seems like a little thing, but it made an impact both on that couple and me. We will continue to go back for sure. read more

This was one of the best meals me and my wife have ever had. We don't normally write reviews but we had to download Yelp for this - it was that good! The falafel was crispy and served with an incredible hummus, tzatziki and hot pita bread. The chicken shawarma was perfectly marinated and moist topped with a delicious garlic sauce. Even their tiramisu cake was fantastic! Generous portions and everything was very fresh and reasonably priced. The staff was nice and accommodated us making substitutions. We are already looking forward to going back! read more

Let me tell you this place never disappoints with takeout either! Orders were ready when I arrived and made correctly with all sauces on the side. Staff was very polite and it was easy to order over the phone. The food was just as tasty at my home as all my other dine in experiences. This is one of my go-to spots in Cary!! 10/10! read more

We picked an order time, placed our order online for carryout and it was ready when we arrived. It was the single skewer kebab platter with a chicken skewer for me and the double skewer kebab sandwich with a beef kofta and beef koobideh skewer for my husband. We also split a side order of hummus with pita, a side order of falafel and a piece of baklava. The food was good for a quick, cheap Mediterranean option. read more

Great food! Nice lunch special. I had the Chicken Kebob plate with rice, tzatziki sauce, and falafel. Highly recommend.

I got this delivered. Great tasting chicken and rice. Nice baklava too. I would eat here again.

The flavors transport you to another place. Quiet & unassuming, you walk in and are greeted with a friendly smile. This is not a chain restaurant. They take pride in offering quality food with fresh ingredients. I really enjoyed my shish kabob platter. All the flavors were yummy! read more

I can't imagine that they get too many people who say "No rice and no bread" because that seems to be the only sides they were offering this evening, but I'm still doing my keto diet so those don't work. But the gent working the counter offered "extra salad" and that was perfectly okay for me. What was brought to my table was a beautifully laid out platter with a chicken kebab and a lovely arrangement of mixed lettuce, spinach, cucumbers, tomatoes and onions. Pretty to look at and absolutely delicious. A lovely meal! Definitely a good dinner at Kebab Skewer! [Review 12432 overall, 2220 of 2019.] read more

Food was merely ok, sauces were very bland. Chicken was dry and one order was wrong (ordered and paid for lamb kebab, got chicken). Tzatziki and tahini sauces had very little flavor. The falafel was extremely overcooked; almost black. The stuffed grape leaves were ok. There are better places for Mediterranean food. read more

Service was good. Food was flavorful and had a nice spice profile. The salad was fresh. Overall enjoyed the meal and will be back.

Came here on a Friday evening after someone recommended the restaurant. I ordered the lamb kebab platter. The lamb was very flavorful, I like it overdone on the outside and moist on the inside and a little charred so it worked great. The salad was very basic but the dressing was delicious. The maamoul cookie was fresh and the date filling was moist. Sides are very limited and the restaurant could've been a little bit cleaner. Overall, food was fresh and flavorful. read more

I happened upon this place while grabbing boba. I'm so glad I stopped in. Family owned and friendly, they have reasonable prices for delicious food.

Legit so many things were homemade which was amazing. Will come back! read more

Our son picked this place wanting grape leaves, sorry they don't sell them. Pretty limited choices. We all had kabob platters. Hubby and son had beef kabob, rice and salad. They liked the koobideh just fine. My chicken kabob was burnt with charred black outside edges, served with an unimpressive salad. The bread which isn't pita and isn't naan, but a creation of their own was very good--the best part of the meal along with hummus. Staff very friendly and generous sending us home with more bread. Restaurant could have been cleaner. read more

The amazing reviews inspired us to come for lunch today. We chose the chicken kebab and the beef koobideh platters, both served with side salads, rice, freshly-baked bread and tzatziki. I also ordered a veggie kebab on the side. The meat was well spiced and perfectly cooked, the rice was tasty and the vegetables were cooked through, but still crisp and fresh. The bread was wonderful and fresh, but don't expect traditional pita. This was much thinner and slightly charred, similar to Indian naan. The service was terrific, especially for an order-at-the-counter restaurant. Tables were sanitized immediately after diners left, and our server checked on us several times. I took home about a third of my food, and the owner offered to bake more bread for me to take with me. Also, it's in a good, central Cary location. A fantastic place all around! read more

I decided to visit Kebab Skewer during my most recent trip to NC. The reviews weren't plentiful, but they were promising. The last time I visited a new place with promising reviews, I fell in love with Everest Nepali Kitchen. I was hoping for a similar experience at Kebab Skewer. Kebab platters here are $9.99 with a $1.99 upcharge for better proteins. It's not the most straightforward menu, and this silly line could be easy to miss. I don't understand why they didn't simply list the prices in a straightforward manner. $12 is above average for a lamb kebab from a hole in the wall place in Cary, but the flavors and quality would surely justify this. Food came out in a reasonable amount of time. The first thing I immediately noticed is the portioning. I don't know if I've fallen victim to the size of the plate, but the portioning definitely seemed below average. The lamb was good, even very good, but not great. The rice was rice, but the salad had absolutely disgusting dressing. *Edit* Taking out my cheesy rhyme to say that I respect Kebab Skewer's efforts and appreciate their response. My opinion still is what it is. read more

Had the triple skewer platter of chicken kebab, beef shish kebab and beef koobideh for 16.99 (without taxes). The platter comes with a salad, rice, bread tzaziki and vinaigrette dressing. Although the portion sizes were great, the rice was a bit moist and the salad was pretty bland even with the addition of the vinaigrette dressing. The bread was soft and it worked well with the kebabs and the tzaziki. All of the kababs had a char grilled appearance and among them, the beef shish reigned supreme. It was tender, juicy and emanated different kinds of flavors like cumin. The chicken kebab was just okay and the koobideh was a bit too dry. Overall, a good and filling meal. They have 5 tables with sufficient spacing for social distancing and the employees had their masks on. You get a free soda with check in. At the time of my visit, the guy in the counter was nice enough to allow it for me even without getting the confirmation from the app as it was not working properly in my case. read more
