    Kabob Shack-Eastlake Location
    Olga M.

    Kabob Shack (Eastlake Pkwy) location in Chula Vista, CA did not disappoint. We ordered the SHAH DELUXE BURGER with gyro meat and the CHICKEN Kabob plate with rice, salad and side order of lamb meat. Both orders were excellent 5/5 stars!! The meat in both plates had the right amount of salt & seasoned to perfection. The customer service was also excellent very friendly employees and the restaurant was very clean. I recommend trying both plates but that Shah cheeseburger burger with gyro meat was outstanding!! Give this restaurant a try! Happy Yelping :)

    We've done take out a couple of times, so I do like their food, but today was the first time I ate at site having a dinner date with my mom =). It is a small place with seating for about 15-20. You have an option of ordering at a kiosk or with the cashier. There was no line so the young man greeted us and after a few minutes of perusing the menu on my mom's behalf, we ordered. He was very friendly, clarifying a couple of questions we did have. It is fast-casual dining. Place your order and find a seat. If you're dining in, they do bring the food to you. My mom ordered the chicken kabob plate rice. Comes with rice, pita, and a side (she chose a salad). A grilled tomato was added. The portions are very generous. The side salad itself could be a meal if you add a protein to it. She liked the seasoning of the chicken and the fluffiness of the rice. I was drawn to a burger today and opted for the Shah Burger, a cheeseburger topped with gyro meat and the fixin's. The juiciness of the burger paired well with the thin slices of gyro. The only downfall was the bun could not hold up and things fell apart about halfway through. So there I was eating a burger with a fork and knife. The fries were crisp and super hot, seasoned with salt and paprika. They do "gyro fries" so I'm thinking next visit. A standout addition is their sauces which are self-serve. There is Garlic, Tzatziki, Mango Chili, and my super favorite is the the Sumac Chipotle. Great dipping with the fries or any protein. So good, you could dip your pet goldfish in it...just kidding...wanted to see if you made it this far. Come to the Kabob Shack!

    This place makes some terrific food. I had the Gryro Pita Sandwich with fries for lunch for only $10.50. The gyro sandwich came generously filled with tender and tasty gyro meat. The pita bread was well toasted on the hot griddle and the sandwich came with a delicious tzatziki sauce. The sauce is made in house. It also came with fresh lettuce and red onions. The French fries came well fried to a crisp texture and were very well seasoned with house zesty seasoning. Very good fries. The service was very good. The gents working the counter was not only very friendly but very efficient and helpful. They offer a good amount of inside seating and a few tables outside. They offer good combo specials.

    Definitely recommend Kabob Shack in Eastlake. Tried it for the first time when I was craving a gyro sandwich, also got the chicken rice plate and it was very filling. Sauces are really good. Service was great, staff was very friendly and welcoming. Check em out.

    Yummy, hit the spot big time!

    Food was AMAZING! Ordered the grilled steak pita sandwich, chicken tandoori, Moussa's famous chicken rice plate and some sides. Highly recommend trying this place. They have great BOGO specials and the food is so tasty! If you like the Kebab shop, you'll be in heaven as this place had a larger variety of food, as good or better and the chicken and steak is so tender and juicy.

    Fast & friendly service & good portions for the price! Ordered the kids chopped chicken over yellow rice - my son is picky and ate most of his plate! Chicken was tasty and rice was flavorful! Both Falafel and gyro plates were really good too and appreciate the self service sauces with no limit! All sauces were yummy especially the garlic sauce! Will definitely be back!

    Met my friend here for lunch. I did the gyro pita wrap and my friend did the chicken plate. Both were so good and portioned well. Located in a strip plaza with private parking lot. Self serve soda fountain. Also, self serve sauces which I like cos I'm a saucy girl. Friendly customer service.

    My Overall Grade: B+ This is a good place for scratching that itch for a Mediterranean dish; I wouldn't mind returning to try more of the items on their menu. For another mediterranean spot that I think you should also try see the end of this review. I ordered 3 items To-Go: a rice plate, gyro wrap, and Shah burger. Each plate looked tasty, was flavorful and hit the spot. I did not get to try the burger but I was told it was pretty good. The chicken plate with rice and side salad was for another relative and they thought the seasoning on the chicken was a little salty but that's based on her taste. The gyro wrap that I ate was yummy and very filling, but this one was a tad salty, so I wouldn't order it for someone with hypertension. There is a self-serve sauce station by the front door with 4 different sauces (the most important being tzaziki sauce) which you can take home in tiny, plastic containers. -END- As an alternative you can also try a place called Shawarma Guys, which I would give an overall grade: "A". I love Mediterranean food; I wish I could try them all!

I thought maybe I'll get it without the pickles next time. However, after eating I got an unexpected headache that usually comes from ingestion of MSG. The fries were tasty... maybe there was MSG in those? Not sure. I've honestly had much better phenomenal shawarma in San Joes CA. I have yet to find a great Shawarma here in San Diego. Feel free to recommend.

All the meat options are good but my favorite is the beef kabob or the chicken kabob. The lamb tikka can sometimes be dry but the smoky flavor is very nice. I also really like their falafel, it's not as dense as falafels you find in Americanized spots. You can really taste the herbs and paired with their tahina dipping sauce, it's amazing. Of course I have to mention their portion sizes. For the price you're paying and the amount of food/quality of food you're getting, it's such a good deal and hard to beat. It has been one of my favorite and reliable spots to eat in San Diego. The servers are all very friendly. Sometimes they expect you to know what you want right away but I think that's because they get a lot of regular customers who do know what they already want. The ambiance is very casual and it's definitely a spot for families to gather for a comforting meal. Just a note, they won't serve you tap water so if you're not willing to pay for bottled water, I suggest bringing your own water bottle. Not really a downside for me but just a heads up for others. Don't let deter you from trying this amazing place out though!!!

We came here for a late lunch, so we were lucky that there was a parking spot opened up right in the plaza. I can not imagine how difficult parking would be during the busy time! I assume you will need to find street parking. Although the plaza is small, the restaurant is big! It has many tables inside, including larger areas for groups. We went in and saw a family having dinner together. That really gave the restaurant a warm family vibe. You can see in the decorations that they have earned many recognitions and had even been on Guy's Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives show! What an amazing place! We started the lunch with a nice mint lemonade! OMG! I highly recommend this! I would go back just for this, so refreshing and perfect way to be primed for a great meal. We had three items, Soujouk Flat Bread, Baba Ghannouj, and Ouzi Lamb. The portion is large! We could not finish and had to take to-go for two of us. I love their baba ghannouj! Very authentic and come with the bread. The serve was smiling when I asked whether it came with the bread. He eventually also told us that we should open the bread like a pita and put baba ghannouj in there. I appreciate the guidance on how to enjoy the food. I also loved soujouk flat bread. So delicious! The highly recommended ouzi lamb lived up to the expectation and it's very delicious. Overall, I can't say enough good things about this restaurant. We will come back for sure because they have so many good delicious food on the menu that we need to try!

Half roasted chicken with side of fatoush salad, beef kabob plate with side of rice, lamb tikka with side of fries, a large plate of hummus, and an order of falafel (Best Falafel in SoCal).
