The serving size is huge! The koobideh is flavorful and I love their tzatziki sauce. I love the salad and roasted vegetables. The service was fast and efficient! The server was very helpful. It has little seating inside, but more seating outside. The parking is limited since it's near downtown. The ambiance is small but very clean inside! read more

Panini Kabob Grill - Beef 1 Koobideh Skewer - Persian/Iranian Near Me - Anaheim, California

I liked the quality and portion size of the food items. The Hummus Trio appetizer had three varieties: Garbanzo, Red Bell Pepper, and Edamme. All Excellent. It comes with some pita slices for dipping. I also got the Bread Basket, which came with a ton more pita, but it didn't go to waste, as most of it ended up in a go-home bag. My entrée, the Shrimp Kabob, was very good. Large, nicely cooked shrimp, with fresh vegetables, salad, and rice on the side. I would easily order this again. Service was sketchy at first. It was busy, and menus were slow in coming, but after that, service was attentive. read more

I go to this PKG about once a week for lunch since it's close by. I usually order online and pick up times are as fast as 15 minutes sometimes. Pick-up is efficient because they line up all the orders ready to go at the counter, and there is always someone there to hand you your order. My favorite is caprese sandwich with either the cup of lentil soup, Caesar salad, or the avocado salad. I do like their kabob plates, but the portion is too big for just me, so I usually order a sandwich with the side. I've had their chicken wrap before, and that is also a good choice. Their outdoor patio is covered and there are heaters that they turn on when it's too cold outside. read more

Panini Kabob Grill - Combination Appetizer - Persian/Iranian Near Me - Anaheim, California

Hate to come on here and be that person but it has to be heard that panini kabob needs better service!! I came in on a Tuesday despite of all the restaurants around the packing house, we decided to come to Panini kabob It was about 7:55 pm (they close at 9 pm) when we got to Panini kabob the original waitress that came to our table was super rude. She just dropped menus on the table and didn't even greet us, came back and then took our order and never came back to check on the food status because another runner brought out the food which was equally as rude if not more rude it seemed like they were upset that they got customers about an hour shy of when they were going to close the restaurant. I understand the closing shift because I've worked in it myself before but shutting things down a whole hour early and focusing solely on closing instead of good customer service there was three tables in the whole restaurant at the time, two of which had been served already . Enough time was given to be kind of at least bring the food out fresh but since they were closing shop it was also cold I am so bummed about this experience. I will definitely go back to other panini kabob grill locations & for the fresh food but the service here is a definite no read more

We had a really great experience ordering from Panini Kabob Grill Café through DoorDash. Everything arrived fresh, well-packaged and still warm. The chicken was cooked perfectly, juicy, flavorful and very filling. The rice was delicious and paired really well with everything. The tzatziki sauce was a standout, especially with the soft pita bread. The salad with the lemon vinaigrette was also amazing, super fresh and refreshing. Even my toddler enjoyed the meal, especially the chicken, rice, and pita with tzatziki, which says a lot! Overall, really impressed with the quality and portion sizes. We will definitely be ordering again. read more

Panini Kabob Grill in Anaheim is close to the Anaheim Packing House. There are many other stores around this location as well. This is a relatively small location, but being that we got there right when they opened on a Friday - there was no wait and our party of 9 got seated right away. Their service was fast and friendly, and their ingredients are always fresh across all locations. That is one thing I love about Panini Kabob Grill - and that is the quality of their food. We got many dishes, from Iron Steak Kabob plate, to Lamb Kabob Plate, Koobideh and Salmon Kabob Plate. 2 people from our party weren't feeling for kabobs, so one opted for some pasta and another opted for a sandwich. Oh yes, and we got the Appetizer Combo which came with regular, edamame and spicy hummus along with Tzatziki, fresh basil, falafel and pita bread. Everything was delicious and soooo good! My stepmom and grandma opted to share the salmon kabob plate which came with an upcharge for them splitting the plate - but they each got to choose their own kind of salad and got their own plate. I thought that was pretty cool. Also, I noticed that this location had way more deliveries (i.e. Uber Eats, DoorDash) than actual people dining in. But maybe that's because we came on a Friday for lunch. But! There is also plenty of seating in their outside patio as well. Either way, if you want good food, Panini Kabob Grill is where it's at! read more

This is a solid spot for lunch on a rainy day! I was a little worried since the restaurant looked empty inside, but after seeing stacks of takeout containers, I felt more hopeful. The food portions are generous, affordable, and very delicious! The server was also very accommodating and checked in on us often. Overall, it's a great experience- the food tasted fresh with simple ingredients. If I'm in the area, I'd come back again! read more

I recently tried their chicken shish kabob plate, and it was absolutely delicious. The chicken was incredibly flavorful, and the rice was cooked to perfection. The salad was also superb, and the service was top-notch - the staff were friendly and prepared my food in a timely manner. Plus, they have both indoor and outdoor seating options. Thanks! read more

PKG Anaheim has an elite takeout and delivery food service- when the stove is cold we order from here quite a bit. It's the family combo (for larger groups) or the chicken kabob with rice or bulgar for us. Also the steak and koobideh options are solid adds as well. Would also recommend the yummy sides- pasta salad, spicy hummus, grilled chiles, etc. Everything is cooked fresh and packaged perfecto. Highly recommend PKG Anaheim if you're craving Mediterranean ! read more

Panini Kabob Grill - Family Combo (2) - Persian/Iranian Near Me - Anaheim, California

Panini Kabob Grill is a Mediterranean chain eatery serving up some delicious food. This location in Anaheim is located downtown near where center street is. To get here, street parking will be your best bet. Inside, they have a casual ambiance with a good amount of seating indoors and outside on their patio. For their menu, they have a solid selection of different appetizers, entrees, soups, salads, and sandwiches to choose from. Wifey ended up getting the Grass Fed Lamb Shish Kabob and I got the Beef Koobideh Kabob. Overall, we enjoyed our dining experience here and the food was delicious! The portions are definitely very generous so know that you will have leftovers forsure. All of the staff are very friendly and welcoming.

Every single plate was delicious. I did not expect such a wide variety of dishes with this level of quality. They offer wraps, paninis, kabobs, pastas, salads, and soups. They truly have it all. The beef and chicken were incredibly flavorful, tender, and cooked perfectly. That pasta blew my mind and was top tier. I can confidently say this spot is in my top three Mediterranean restaurants. I would definitely go back to try more items. The rice and salad were outstanding and tied everything together perfectly. read more

Panini Kabob Grill - 1 Koobideh Skewer with Strawberry Date Salad - Persian/Iranian Near Me - Anaheim, California

Coming in a hour before closing on a Tuesday , they were busy on the phone taking orders. So we just sat ourselves not sure if that's how it normally goes but then we weren't sure if we ordered at the counter so we all got up again. Got handed menus that were covered in food and not wiped down. And they were already mopping while still in there I felt like they wanted us to get the hint to hurry (But then again we had a hour).But besides that the food was pretty good I really enjoyed the chicken over the steak which I asked for medium but felt well done and no pink. The portion sizes are huge, I actually thought for the prices it wasn't going to be big but think for the price they are generous servings! They have a patio dining and indoor seating, good amount of seating. Besides the menus it did seem pretty clean In there. Overall 3/5 with my experience of service and food. read more

Grill and Chill, Panini Kabob Grill is the Real Deal! Food made from scratch every day, that's the promise on Panini Kabob Grill's menu, and you can taste the truth in every bite. From the first time I had the salmon wrap (juicy, perfectly grilled, paired with fluffy pearl rice), I was hooked. The food is fresh, hot, and never feels heavy, which is perfect since I usually stop by on my lunch break before heading back to work. Some days it's bustling, other days it's quiet, but either way, service is consistently good, the place is spotless, and the outdoor patio is my go-to spot. Even on a warm day, the greenery and the flow of people make it a great place to relax, eat, and recharge. What I love most is knowing the food isn't sitting under a heat lamp and it's made fresh, just like I'd want if I cooked it myself. That's probably why I can't go a week without stopping by. Whether you're solo, with coworkers, or just craving Mediterranean comfort done right, Panini Kabob Grill is absolutely worth it. read more

I should leave a 20% tip for myself since the servers here just pile your drinks and plates onto the table and expect you to distribute them yourself. We haven't gotten our food yet and I've felt compelled to already leave a negative review. Not sure if I'll come back to this location. read more

I expected better from Panini Kabob. We decided to visit on Mother's Day, but the restaurant was completely overwhelmed by, or prioritizing, online orders. The place was packed with people waiting to pick up, while families looking to dine in were ignored. We waited an hour, not knowing when we would be seated, only to find out through our own inquiry that they were focusing on takeout. It was unfair to make families wait without communicating this beforehand. Several other families left after waiting too long. Definitely ruined the mood for our celebration. read more

Done with this location and possibly the brand altogether. I've given them multiple chances after they've forgotten to include sides with pickup or delivery orders (my romaine avocado salad has probably only been included with my order 50% of the time). But this time I ordered a tofu wrap and salad and instead received some sort of meat and cheese panini and soup. I ended up calling the location and apparently my correct order was just sitting there, ready. I am recovering from surgery and am unable to drive for the time being, so picking it up wasn't an option. Whose meal did I get? Is there one employee who consistently slacks off and pays no attention to packing orders, or is it a work culture thing at this location? Disappointing all around. read more

​I was really impressed with the food here. I'll admit I was a little nervous about the prices at first, but once the food arrived, the portions definitely justified the cost. Everything was fresh and the flavors felt authentic, which I really appreciated. ​The location itself is nice with plenty of seating options both inside and out. For the logistics, keep in mind that parking is in the garage, so you'll have a short walk to get to the entrance. It's a solid spot, and I would definitely come back. read more

I ordered a beef kobideh plate from this location and this was honestly the worst experience I've had at any location. The meat was completely burnt and dry to the point where it was barely edible. You can clearly see it was overcooked and charred way beyond normal. For the price they charge, the food quality should be much better than this. Very disappointing service and quality control at this location. I definitely would not come back here. read more

Panini Kabob Grill - Terrible - Persian/Iranian Near Me - Anaheim, California

We decided to pick up a family meal from this location to give business to a newer Panini location, and what we got were trays full of burnt veggies and chicken. I wish I had taken a photo of what was brought home, but given this was a family birthday celebration, I did not want to create a scene. We were all quietly navigating our plates through the burnt food which really was inedible, but since we had no other food prepared, had to make the best of this. I am shocked a big franchise like Panini Kabob Grill would allow their employees to package this out to their customers. Very disappointed to have opted here to enjoy a healthy meal with family, only to have created potentially greater health concerns. read more

Oh boy where do I begin... Mother's Day is a super busy carry out day. Super awkward having Uber Eats and door dash drivers staring at us while we sat and ate. Our waiter forgot our appetizer and it came out 15 mins prior to our main course. After 30 plus mins of waiting. When our food came out there was a mix up on plates and not how we asked we cooked. (Salmon instead of chicken) (medium rare to medium well) too many mix ups for my taste. Food tasted great. But for a party of 5 we all kinda ate at different times and it was just awkward and weird. Because the person we were celebrating (mother) was the last to get her plate and food coming out raw. Having to get up from our seats to have to ask for our boxes and check being ignored was just disappointing. Overall this location was not great it was very disappointing. read more

I will NEVER go back to this location and I have been going to Panini for years. The manager Vanessa is extremely rude and has zero customer service skills. I have never been treated so poorly by a "manager". She appears to be more interested in her phone than helping loyal customers. I hope this gets addressed and fixed. read more

Panini Kabob Grill has always been our family's solid option for Mediterranean food, whether for dine in or take out. They give enough food with their family combos and the food is of similar quality compared to eating in. The restaurant today was about 30% full with probably half the tables waiting for their food. The inside of the restaurant was hectic and none of the staff seem accessible unless you went to the front counter for each request. I've noticed the past few times I've ordered online through the app, dating back to 2022, no matter what time you place the pick up time for, they'll not have the order ready until at least 20-30 minutes after your pick up time. While waiting today, I saw a couple customers inquiring about wait times for to go orders and being told it would take at least 2 hours; definitely not worth the wait. As a customer for years, PKG has become a less desirable option for take out. read more

Great food and service. Not enough inside tables though. Ordered beef and chicken kabobs, salads, and drinks. All good.

So extremely disappointment in this Resturant tonight. I decided to order panini for mothers days for myself to enjoy at 11:30am for a 5pm ready time. I got here at 4:45pm the Togo girl said 5 more min. I wanted the 5 went back in and she said 10 more min: then I go in and ask the lady that boxing up the Togo and she tells me just because you order food for a certain time doesn't mean it will be ready then... I'm like wait isn't the the exact point of ordering ahead of time....? She told me another 10 min.. and she'll rush it... it's a ceased salad with salmon and soup... Also they girls here are very rude, giving dirty look because I'm in the doorway waiting for my food in a packed Resturant.... order wasn't ready till 5:30pm read more

I never actually got to eat my food! I've been a steady customer of Panini Kabob Grill for over a decade. I've frequented the Irvine, Santa Ana, and Long Beach locations dozens of times with no issue. Today around 11:15AM I wanted to order the Vegetable Linguini with chicken breast added. At all other locations this is simply a $5.99 upcharge, the waitress told me it would be *$17* for 4 measly chunks of chicken. That's ridiculous as any other pasta dish would only be a $5.99 charge. She didn't think to maybe ask the manager or head of the kitchen if this reasonable request could be made. It was I pay $17 or go elsewhere... so I took my hard money and left. I will never return to this location. Also, the inside is super small and cramped compared to all other locations. The limited interactions I had with the hostess and waitress made it seem like they didn't want business. I wouldn't be surprised if this location closes up shop soon. There's simply too much competition to treat potential customers like this. Avoid. read more

The food I've had from this place is very delicious Chicken Brie Panini , Beef Kabobs, Chicken Kabobs & the Lamb, Rice is so good & I've also have had their mediterranean salad.

Thank you Yelp! You came through again. We were in the area running an errand and once we were done we decided to grab something to eat. Where do we go, look at Yelp of course. Didn't know what we wanted but we knew Middle Eastern. Mediterranean or something like that so we Yelped it: and found Panini Kabob Grill. We were met by our very friendly waitress and she seated us right away. There were three of us and but we ordered two plates and the Hummus trio plate and took enough to have a second meal at home. But was it good, YES! The beef kabob was so tasty and I ordered the Strawberry and Date salad with my order and it was so good. Much better than the Greek salad my daughter ordered. She had the Charbroiled Chicken Shish Kabob and it is a must order item. The Trio Hummus was very good but we ordered a bread basket because the two pitas that come with the plate was not enough. The design of the place is very nice. The place was cool, which was important on this very hot day. If i had one complaint or more appropriately concern was that rice was NOT great. It wasn't bad but one of my favorite things about Middle Eastern food is how well they make rice. Panini's rice was not like typical Mediterranean. We took some Baklava home and it was OK. read more

Very good experience and food also. My only problem is the lack of parking space especially if you are just going to pick-up.

Panini Kabob Grill is located in a busy shopping. Good luck finding parking next to it. All the parking spots were taken by the people shopping at the supermarket next door. I had to park on the east side of the restaurant. This place has an indoor and outdoor area. Since it was scorching hot, I opted for inside. When coming here, I had to check in at the host podium. Ordering was a breeze with my waiter. I ordered the steak kabob plate. It was very delicious. I have to say that their portions were quite large. Can't go wrong with large portions! read more
