This place isn't on Yelp yet, so I guess it is now. First off, this spot appears to have two names. The storefront says King Kabob, but the flyer I got says Aoki Kabob. I don't know if it's a rebrand, a soft opening situation, or just unfinished business, but the identity confusion doesn't stop there. Walking in, the vibe honestly feels closer to a gas station food counter than a restaurant -- which is rough considering it's right next door to where Al Wazir used to be. That comparison hurts, and it's unavoidable if you've eaten in this area before. The menus are confusing. The menu on the wall says one thing (ramen, noodles), the menu on the table says another (gyros, kabobs). I ended up with noodles in my order, which I wasn't really expecting. This doesn't feel like a ghost kitchen exactly, but more like a place that hasn't decided what it wants to be yet. The prices are good, I'll give them that. But food like this is supposed to feel fresh -- grilled, clean, unfried. Instead, I walked away feeling kind of heavy, which defeats the point of Mediterranean food for me. Nothing was outright bad, but nothing stood out either. Between the name confusion, menu sprawl, and lack of focus, it feels like this place is still figuring itself out. For now, I'll just keep walking down the street to the other spot.

I have tried there 3 meat combo plate it was bomb I highly recommend this place the owners is very nice the staff very welcoming and for sure I will be back.

Best tasting Gyro that I have had in LA!! The beef kabob was great too. Generous portions for the price. They're very kind too.

4.5/5 stars. Came here for dinner with our friends, and overall, we enjoyed our experience. The…read moredishes are meant to be shared so you can try different dishes. Our group tried 3 spreads: the Hummus Duck 'Nduja ($19), Baba Ghanoush ($19), and Liver Pate. The baba ghanoush was my fave - it had a nice smoky flavor, and the pomegranates were a unique addition. The duck hummus was pretty tasty and flavorful, but was on the salty side. The pita bread that came with the hummus was fresh and warm! The liver pate personally wasn't my fave, but we got it since our friends loved it. For appetizers, we got the roasted cauliflower ($24), trout crudo ($32), octopus ($36), sweet potato flatbread ($26), and the oyster mushrooms ($29). My faves were the trout crudo and oyster mushrooms. The oyster mushrooms were grilled nicely and are best eaten hot! The octopus was tender, and cauliflower had a good flavor. The sweet potato flatbread was interesting, with a sweet and savory profile. For entrees, we got the Grilled Dorade ($54) and the Whole Lamb Rack ($92), both of which were stellar. The fish had a unique and strong flavor and was so tender. The lamb was also perfectly tender and had a mild gamey flavor. Overall enjoyable meal, but on the pricey side.

Service: very good quick to fill our waters…read more Ambience: music is nice, lighting is dim Baba ganoush: 3.75/5 roasted Chicken pate 3.5/5 bread was very good. Chicken pate was okay. Cauliflower: 4/5 a little more sour than I expected but it was nice! Wagyu: 4/5 good flavor and cooked well.
