Wow! What an amazing meal here from start to finish. The food was some of the best I have ever had- everything was so delicious and authentic. Some must-haves are the Lebanese iced tea, beef shawarma lunch, and harissa! Server was nice and you can tell that she loves to work here. I love that this restaurant is SO affordable and family-owned. I would highly recommend coming! read more

Amazing food. Every time I visit Kenner this is my first option. Not impressed with the hummus but my little one likes it. Service girls are great too. Don't skip the baklava. read more

This secret middle eastern gem is to die for! Food is always great, people are always great and it's reasonably priced. My mom sister and I ended up getting 3 lamb kebab plates so delicious! Comes with a side of hummus, pita, kebabs, side cucumber salad, grilled tomato and lots of yellow rice! To drink I got a Lebanese tea which was delicious! It's def enough to share a plate with someone else, but we were all very hungry that day. It wasn't my first time coming here, we had been a few times! Overall I would def recommend this spot to anyone, if you're in Kenner you probably already know about this spot, if you're not from Kenner... you're welcome! read more

The food is great service was great. It was a good experience. The lamp is delicious and the hummus is very good.

Was a total disappoint for this meal. Yes. Lollipop lamb BUT this isn't a bite. They aren't consistent in how many. Sometimes it six and today it's five. For the price was expecting better read more

The food here was very good. The extra star is because the mint tea is so aromatic, the harissa desert is warm and coconutty and the lunch special is such a bargain for the amount/quality of the food. I started with the mint tea. An individual cup (not pot) served very hot with mint leaves floating on top. So aromatic and a perfect go with a middle eastern meal. Then I ordered the lula kabob lunch special. Two skewers of lightly seasoned ground lamb served over rice pilaf with chopped salad and hummus. Warm pita bread is brought separately. I added a touch more salad dressing to the salad. And sprinkled my favorite spice (sumac) onto the meat and rice. Note: Most specials are under $10. I finished the meal with harissa cake. I'd never had this before so decided to try it. It's a moist, served warm, coconutty cake topped with slivers of almonds. Quite good and a nice change from baklava. Would definitely come back if in the area. And especially nice if you need a break from all the great seafood Nola offers... read more

After writing reports all morning it was time to hit the road and find some lunch. The first place that close and sounded appetizing was a local BBQ just blocks from my hotel. Pulled in the tiny lot to find the only open spot was a handicapped space. No room for any other parking without blocking in the 3 other cars in the front. Circled the Block and the lot next door had plenty of open spaces but restricted with Tow away signs posted. Sorry, passing on this one! As I pulled out and looked across the street a Middle Eastern restaurant with ample parking and an easy U turn, called my name. A nice large inside and warm welcoming smells greeted us along with a friendly waitress. After looking over the menu and spotting some reliable favorites, I chose the Lamb Kabob lunch platter ($7.95!), which included rice pilav, chopped salad, Humus, roasted onions and peppers and warm pita bread. The hot mint was a great accompaniment. The huge dish arrived and a request for some Sumac was met with a friendly, "Sure!" (Sumac goes great sprinkled over everything!) Great Meal! read more

I really enjoy eating here every time that I come. The food is always good, the quality and freshness consistent. The people are hit or miss when it comes to friendliness, but they are prompt and efficient. This particular visit, my fiancé and I ordered labneh and kibbeh for an appetizer. For our meals, he ordered the kufta kabob plate with hummus and salad and I ordered the chicken shwarma plate with rice and hummus. The amounts of food you get here are always huge and I never leave without taking home leftovers. Everything was delicious, especially the kibbeh and the meats. My favorite thing on the menu, and what I usually get, is the Meat and Tomato Stew, with rice and hummus. I look forward to my next visit! read more

I Like It ! I ordered the chicken shawarma, it comes with salad and humus. All of the items were good. I was the only person there at the time and the waitress was nice to make recommendations upon inquiring. Next visit I'll try the gyro platter. read more

Decent Middle Eastern food located in a strip mall in a former Chinese restaurant. The chicken shawarma and lamb were good for the entree plates. The menu specifically makes note that all of their meats are halal and there is also a nearby halal meat shop. Overall it is a decent spot for a quick meal but it isn't my favorite Middle Eastern place in the area and I find for a similar price I get a bit more food at other places. read more

Best Middle Eastern food in Kenner hands down. Can't beat the home cooking from the owner his wife. You won't be sorry on this choice.

Lamb kabob and baklava are excellent. Great prices. Excellent weekday meal. Can call ahead and pick up. Friendly service.

Very nice food. Surprise to see that here. Nice decor, somewhat noisy at times. Loved the food esp hummus and combo platter. Price is reasonable. Service is good and people are pleasant. read more

Wanted to try Lebanese food and found this good place. The ambience is nice.. not too noisy . The servers are nice and fast. The food was not too pricey and was very good ,everything seemed fresh made. The hummus, Baba ganoush and falafels were very nice, the spinach pie was big no no it was not at all good in anyway. The kabobs and shawarma was nice soft and juicy. The guava smoothie was something new and nice to try. In all a place worth going again. read more

The food was tasty and fresh and the service was friendly enough. My fiancé and I started with and order of the fried kibbeh and an order of labnah. The kibbeh was really good, and definitely made fresh as it was piping hot and came a few minutes after the labnah. For our entrees, I got the kufta kebab with hummus and salad and she got the chicken schwarma with rice and salad. Both portions were very large and delicious. Mine came with four good sized kebabs and she had a mountain of rice topped with the chicken. read more

Its ok. Not the greatest just okay food. The chicken kabob only came with two kabobs. Kinda disappointed. Hummus is bland. Salad is ok. Ok kind of food. It has a lot of rice. I guess they expect you to fill up on rice. We got the shrimp plate too. It came with 4 pita breads. And one drink. It was around 38 dollars. read more

Shishkabob House - Chicken kabob only comes with two kabobs - Middle Eastern Near Me - Kenner, Louisiana

Great food! My new favorite place to eat Palestine food. I recommend the Kufta Kabob :))

Was in the area craving a shawarma so I rolled the dice and checked this place out. I ordered the chicken shawarma plate. The meal came with hummus, salad, rice and pita. The meat was seasoned very nicely and the food was delicious. Only being able to stop by once on a fluke I wish I'd had time to explore the menu more but it was a nice meal that really hit the spot. read more

This is now my go-to place for Lebanese food. This is how all food should be done - authentic with fresh ingredients. A big 'Thank You' to the owners and chef of Shishkabib House for being the gold standard! Don't let the simple name of this fine restaurant fool you. The only other time I've had Mediterranean food this good was when I was overseas. read more

Perfect blend of flavor. I ordered the Kufta lunch portion which is generous. The salad mixed with the hummus, rice and kebobs do the taste buds good. Will return for sure. read more

I love this place so much. I have been trying to find the perfect place in Kenner/Metairie that serves the best gyro plate/wrap/whatever I want. I tried Falafel king and was highly disappointed. I tried Acropolis and it was okay. I finally tried Shishkabob House from a recommendation given by a friend of mine. He told me to eat here, and that it's much better than Halal guys. I'm so glad he convinced me to come. 3 gyro plates, falafel appetizer, and one Diet Coke came out to an even $30. I think that's amazing. Nowadays Middle Eastern/Greek/Mediterranean food comes with a high price tag. This place certainly did not. They gave me so much food for my money, I only managed to finish half of it. Keep in mind this is the lunch portion. I couldn't imagine if I had the dinner portion! The gyro plate came with plenty of meat, a refreshing salad, and delicious rice. The hummus was good as well! The falafel was very good, as was the sauce accompanying it. I would definitely come back again and again. read more

I loooooove the chicken shawarma salad from Shishkabob House. It's more of a chopped salad style than the typical "greek salad" that other restaurants place under the meat, and I appreciate that there are plenty of cucumbers to go around. I've also had the dinner plate with salad and hummus. It was yummus! (sorry, had to). For me, it's conveniently located in a small North Kenner strip mall, perfect for takeout after work. Friendly staff, great portions, and delicious! read more

This the best place in the New Orleans area for middle eastern food. It's flavorful and true to the region, owners are very nice and never a let down. Prices are amazing , food is amazing and I would bring anyone I know here. read more

This place is the real deal when it comes to great home style Palastenian comfort food! Location: middle eastern plaza near the airport. Service: Excellent! Friendly! Attentive! Food: OMG! The lentil soup was absolutely luscious! The kibbeh... Let's just say that my sister-in-law is no longer the kibbeh queen! The lamb, chicken, and shrimp were all fresh, succulent, and lovingly prepared by the servers mother. Oh and if you are an iced tea person ... don't pass up the lovely rose tea with pine nuts as it is magical! Nurse Nerd vote: 5 stars hands down! read more

Sometimes you have to dress up to go for a Sunday work out then skip it, think about getting burgers but then drive like 30min out of the way to go and eat at a place where Kebabs remind you of home and you drool over the food 6 hours later. Yes, thats what Shishkabob house did for us. It was like eating at home just paying for it. The food is homecooked by owners and their son is at the front desk. We had chicken and goat kebabs, while goat wasn't as tender as i am use to but it was delicious. Chicken was just out of this world so juicy, succulent, just amazing. The best part was the salad, grilled veggies and humus was as amazing as the main entree. A lot entrees have a bunch of sides as "sides", not here. As we were walking out and about to pay, we saw one of the owners bring in 5 pieces of dessert just out of oven. They told me its "Katayef", made with walnuts. I am not a fan of dessert but i ate 2 while they were swiping my card. It was the best thing ever. If you ever crave mediterranean food, please make the extra hike and go here. Check for 2 would be around $30 max. Thanks for making our Sunday a memorable one. read more

Best little middle eastern restaurant ever! I highly recommend the goat kabob and their tea is outstanding! Great service and the food came out super fast. read more

Large portions of authentic food at reasonable prices but ambience could use an upgrade. Can see the tenants if the contest restaurant that came before it but flavors are food enough to compensate. I had the chicken schwarma lunch special which was moist and filling. Hubby had the beef schwarma stirfry which he devoured. Lentil soup was amazing. Plenty of free parking and liked like there were quite a few take out orders when we were there. read more
