Kabob Cafe is one of my favorite places to eat with my family! I've been coming here for years…read morebecause their food has the best flavor, the customer service is always great, and everything is consistently fresh. I always order either the Lamb Rack Kabob Plate or the Chicken Shish Kabob Plate. What I love most about their food is the flavor and how the meat is always juicy and never dry like at other restaurants. Their food tastes just as good in-store as it does to-go, so I frequently order both! Their plates also come with salad dressing, tzatziki and garlic sauce. I especially love the garlic sauce because it adds an extra kick without an overwhelming garlic flavor. I always look forward to my food from Kabob Cafe, but I also really look forward to seeing the family owners, Sid and his son, Iman! They're both so nice and welcoming and always make sure my family's order is prepared exactly how we like it. I usually order my plate with all rice and no salad, and they never miss a detail, which I really appreciate. The combination of consistently delicious food and genuinely friendly service is what keeps me coming back to Kabob Cafe every week!

At the time of this review, Hatam Restaurant is rated 3.7 stars on Yelp. That, to me, is criminally…read morelow for the place. I'll explain why, starting now. First off, walking in, you'll be greeted cheerfully by reception, where you'll then be directed to a table, in this tall ceiling-ed place that will change your life, just you wait. The service was 10/10. All of the wait staff has been kind and attentive. I can't fault them for that at all. The place is decorated very interestingly, in a way that some may consider antiquated, but we all say the same thing about those Chinese/Vietnamese banquet halls, so really, who cares? I always get 2 things, as I find it very consistent and the best combo for maximum enjoyment. I get the mast o moosir, which is a yogurt dip with shallots. This is a wonderful appetizer on its own, but the key here is to get yourself a kebab. I'm very partial to their koobideh, as I find the taste and texture to be the best I've probably ever had. The beef grain is perfectly tender, but not too homogenous, and the flavor is pure beef and those Persian spices. The rice is always fluffy, adding the butter is delicious, and don't forget that sumac! Come by Hatam, because I KNOW you need to try this!

Shout out to our server Pouya for making last night memorable. Having out of town guests can be…read morefun, and when they specifically requested Persian Food we called and decided on Hatam. Persians are very picky and judgy when it comes to their cuisine. Everyone is a chef and of it doesn't bring back the nostalgia of your childhood at grandmas it doesnt pass the test. I judge a place based on their koobieh. Lets be honest, if your koobieh sucks, Houston we have a problem! Tonight, I decided to order the lamb shank with baghali polo, along with a family style appetizer consisting of mast-o-khiar, hummas, kashkeh-bademjoon, salad shirazi, and a side of mausto-mousir. My cousin ordered Tahdig for the table with different toppings. Everyone at the table ordered Soltanis, Chicken Barg and other options. Lets talk about ambiance: when you enter you are greeted by ornate art, calm atmosphere and fresh flowers. Love the lighting, its soft and inviting. Pouya our server was kind and friendly. He single handedly helped manover a "game of thrones" type style between my cousin and myself trying to sneak in our credit-cards before the meal even started so it would be taken care of ahead of time. The persian bill paying struggle is real. IYKYK. Lets just say, this girl won that one against my guy cousin with the parents watching dinner and show. Hehhee. The highlight for me was the bread ,butter,onions served first. I was hungry and the bread was made in house and fresh. It was warm, soft and paired well with the onions, and butter. I ordered more throughout the meal to eat with the mausto-mousir ( shallot and yogurt dip). Hands down out of the appetizer, the tahdigh ( crispy rice), khashk bademjoon ( eggplant dip), cucumber dip, shallot with yogurt dip were the stars of the night. The beef shank with Baghali polo was top on my list. The dill/lima beans rice paired well with the lamb shank. It was tender, tasty ( didnt have a gamey taste, or smell) and that says something for a girl born here. Kids like me born here, usually dont touch lamb because of the gamey, smell . So eating it at Hatam was a great experience for me. I would order this again. Our family had a great night out in a chill environment, devoid of any triggers for me that may have caused some health issues and it was a needed break. The ADA parking and easy access is also appreciated. Overall, I would recommend Hatam. I found out from my mom, that Hatam has also been the "go to" caterer for her parties so, that says something about quality of food and meeting expectations my mom has in place.10/10 Please note doing 1/2 salad and 1/2 rice will be $3.00 extra.

I just ordered Chicken lunch special with rice and I am so disappointed!…read more I used to come here because the quality was good also special lunch made sense with goid price $11 for good meal But today the chicken was so bad , hardly chewable, i was so hungry just could eat some of it and took back the rest to Grill hut just to inform them, not happy. I paid $16 with , doesn't sounds special It was very small portion of rice and couple of smal piece if chicken , hardly chewable! I mean , this is not fair for people spending $16 for bad food!!! These food places now have less portion of food with lower quality but price gone up! What are they thinking!? Eventually loose customers and they close their business wondering why? Never going back there, wasted my money and still Hungry!!!

And if you do get the sandwich, ask them to heat the sandwich on grill (WITH CHARCOAL).. Amazing

First off, I hate writing bad reviews about restaurants and I wasn't going to but the restaurant…read morewouldn't give me a resolution and told me there is no manager or owner that exists for me to talk to. We ordered from the restaurant and there was so much oil that the bag broke in my car and now I had to pay for the carpets in my car to be shampooed to get the smell and oil out. I'm extremely upset. If you're going to eat at this restaurant, eat in person and don't do takeout or else you'll be spending a ton of money to get the oil and smell out of your car. I will never order from here again especially because the employees wouldn't help at all and said they don't have any managers or owners. Horrible customer service.
