Insanely small portion sizes - we spent $80 and couldn't feed 4 people. The skewers are skimpy and the babaganoush is the size of a condiment. The food itself is mediocre at best. The chicken was rubbery and the lamb was far from tender. read more

Shishkebab is my favorite Mediterranean restaurant in Augusta. I don't eat meat much but when I come here, I will definitely splurge on a gyro. They have vegetarian options, authentic floor seating, and scalding hot chai tea (just like I like it). The service is always friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend. read more

Shishkebab Restaurant - Turkish Near Me - Evans, Georgia

Great food. Lovely environment. Courteous staff. It's my favorite Turkish restaurant in town.

The lunch special is great and priced right for lunch. The gyro is well seasoned and tasty. The speed of service is excellent. The exterior appearance is a little unappealing, but don't let it keep you out. Great place to get a quick and tasty lunch special! read more

Best restaurant in Augusta! Delicious, great service, and affordable. My friends and I love to go there for dinner and sit on the floor cushions and play backgammon. I always order the Mediterranean salad with falafel. And the baklava is to die for! read more

If you love good food, excellent service, and a warm family experience I highly recommend Shiskbob Restaurant! We normally go on Sunday for the buffet. Wow! We have never be disappointed in the many times we have eaten there. The staff are warm and attentive. We have gone thru the week and ordered plates which were prepared after we ordered and came to the table hot, fresh, and delish! read more

This a great restaurant for middle eastern food. We started with grape leaf rolls that were the best. We then ordered the best gyro in the Augusta area. We will have to come back for the dinner items. Everything is fresh. Give them a try if you're nearby. read more

This is a great place to go if you're in search of some delicious Mediterranean food. I came here and got the Alexander the Great plate and my mom got a gyro. Both were delicious! We also tried the Turkish coffee and chai tea both of those were delicious as well. The owner and staff are super nice and friendly as well. We received excellent service and attention. I'll definitely be back here to try more of their dishes. This place is a lot more softener than most places in Augusta, so it's good to mix it up and try something new and different! Can't go wrong with a gyro. read more

Never going here again. Ever. We placed an order for delivery, and only half of it arrived. When we called, I ended up with a mealy-mouthed manager who tried to make it my problem that they were short staffed and didn't normally do deliveries. Apparently, the guy who took the order didn't see that it was for two dinners. That was their mistake. Not mine. I get that people make mistakes, but in the world I grew up in, when you make a mistake, you make it right. I fail to see how them being short staffed, or failing to fulfill what I ordered, is my problem at all. I made an order, they failed to fill it, and then they refused to make it right. We went there, and sent people there for several years. Won't do that anymore. It is the responsibility of a business to make a customer's order right. If a business isn't willing to do that, they don't need to be in business. Period. Watch them now come back and try to spin it. Good luck with that. I placed an order, they failed to fill it correctly, refused to make it right, and that is that. My only mistake was ordering from them, and I won't be doing that any more. read more

This is my favorite place in Augusta hands down!!!!!! Food is amazing the service is great love the whole vibe.

I was nearby picking up some work supplies and saw the lunch plate special for $5.99 it was the Gyro with fries or rice,me i choose the rice this time. It took but 30 seconds to take my order,which the owner greeted me at the counter that's what small shops like this keep regulars and make new ones comeback. My food came out in less than 7 minutes piping hot and you can smell the lamb/beef coming at you with the steam from the rice right behind it. a great portion of meat and rice that I didn't eat my pita bread cause I wasn't leaving any meat on my plate today! Looking around the place there are plenty of Greek theme furniture and pictures. It looked like a big Hooka pipe in one section,but i'm not into that but the food is great and the lunch special I had was right in my zone food meals. Did I mention a beverage comes with the special? All they need to do is add mosaka to the menu and they will see me quite a bit. Stop by and check them out read more

Took a friend to lunch today. We ordered Gyros. They were hot and flavorful. Sauce we fresh and yummy.The crinkle cut fries were crispy. Had reasonable specials. read more

Best Mediterranean food in Evans! Everything is prepared fresh in view of the dining room. Never had a bite that wasn't delicious and the staff is always friendly and helpful. Do yourself a favor and give this place a try! read more

One of our family favorites. Their gyro plates are a no brainer, and dolmas are always consistent. I'm assuming it's the owner that usually helps us and he's great! Can't wait to bring out of town family here. read more

The gyro wrap was just OK. There was not enough meat and was overwhelmed by the cabbage. The Taziki sauce is good. The feta fries did not have enough feta sauce or feta cheese on them. Those were very disappointing. The pistachio baklava was way over priced and dry. We added our own honey when we got home and that helped a bit. All in all, probably won't be back. read more

Great Food and a lot of it! Family really enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. I had the Troy Mixed Kebab, my wife had the Alexander and my son the Kids Kebab with Fries. We went for Dinner on a Saturday night. Everything was fresh and we even got to talk with the Owner. Had a wonderful conversation about Turkey and Germany. ( Wife is German, and he spoke it very fluent!) This is one place we will visit at least once or twice a month! If your hungry, go here. You will not be disappointed. read more

Great place and the food is excellent. I had the gyro platter with soup and a falafel wrap to go. read more

I love eating at Shishkebab! The food is excellent and I haven't had a bad experience yet. I highly recommend the Turkish coffee. Like another poster said, it's like liquid crack. If you're worried if this place is family friendly, don't be. I've been to the restaurant when they've had dancers and when they haven't. It's comfortable and a great time for everyone when the dancer is present. They are really good about getting the kids to try fan dancing or playing the tambourine. I also never felt pressured to give a tip. Maybe it's not everyone's cup of tea, but I think it's great. I've eaten here numerous times since shortly after they have opened. It's awesome Every. Single. Time. 10/10 read more

This place has been around awhile, but today was my first visit... I'm usually kind of adventurous, but decided to play it safe and order the gyro wrap. It came, and I was very happy I ordered it, and sorry I didn't get the buffet. Their gyro meat is the thickest gyro meet I've ever had... It looks dried out, but is delicious, juicy, and tender. The rest of the gyro was just as great. That was all I tied this trip, but I will be back soon to try more of there selections!!! read more

Delicious food. We had stuffed grape leaves and hummus appetizers. The hummus is excellent. For our entree we had the gyro platter which comes with a generous portion of delicious gyro meat, rice, lettuce, cabbage and a warm pita. read more

Shishkebab Restaurant - Gyro platter... Yum!!! - Turkish Near Me - Evans, Georgia

We had the #26. It's enough for 2 people and had a great variety of chicken, lamb, and beef kabobs. They were delicious! Seasoned very well and tender. It was served with rice, pita bread, and a mix of lettuce, cabbage, & onion. Real crisp & fresh with a sort of vinegar dressing. It was so refreshing to have something different in this area. The service was exceptional as well! Very quick and polite staff. The owner also came out and greeted us which is always a pleasant surprise when dining out locally. I will definitely be back!!! Oh...We came on a Saturday night but there is belly dancing on Friday nights. read more

Shishkebab Restaurant - The #26 for 2 with chicken, lamb, & beef kabobs (also rice, pita bread, & salad). - Turkish Near Me - Evans, Georgia

twice bitten, never eaten. t Two times now we have tried to go here around 9 on a Saturday night and both times were not able to. This latest was because they were having a special occasion and closed down early. I would have understood if when I called (and only got a generic message) (just a repeat of the number called nothing else) I had been informed of the change in hours. I mean, a party is a party. But to be told at the door "oh no, we just closed because of this party but you can get a to-go order" was annoying and not really part of a good night out on the town. I would have even been satisfied had there been a hand written sign at the door or the hours posted sign had been turned off. The fact that two times we've tried eating here only to be turned away tells me they don't want community support. That's fine, Tackosushi is right up the street. read more

I'm a longtime member of the Clean Plate Club but even I couldn't finish my donor platter. SO MUCH food. And so good, too. Like melt in your mouth good. They also had Turkish CNN on which was fun to watch. read more

We went to Shishkebab last night for the first time. We drug along our 14 year old son even though he wasn't keen on trying anyplace new (he's at that age). As soon as we walked in, the belly dancer greeted us which totally embarrassed him and he did not want to go in. She was friendly and cute and in a belly dancing costume so that was all it took. LOL The restaurant is small but accommodated several large parties well that were there when we arrived. Although it feels a little dated, once the music started and the food arrived, you really felt transported to another place. The servers were attentive and the menu had lots of options. My husband got the Chef's Plate which had cous cous and several different kinds of kabob. My son and I both got the Doner plate which is like a traditional gyro platter. The jasmine rice was wonderful! We also shared a baklava and my husband stated it was the best he's had since coming back from overseas. All the food was amazing! We loved it! And by the end of dinner, my son was really enjoying the live music, the food and of course, the belly dancer. The owner came over and spoke to us as we were settling our tab and was very kind and personable. All in all, it was a great night and we enjoyed our experience very much. We are looking forward to our next visit. Thank you! read more

So happy to have tried this place. Culture and flavor await you here!! Love the taste of everything. I ordered the lentil soup to start while my husband had the feta rolls. Both were delicious. I then had veggie skewers and my husband had one of the lamb specials. All served with rice, pita and side salad. Very please with the friendliness of the staff as well. This will be our go-to when we are wanting some flavor! read more

Love the falafel platters and feta rolls! ((Unfortunately they haven't had falafel recently due to covid)). But the owners are so sweet and the food is amazing! read more

Given the fact that there are no mediteranean or persian cuisine in augusta, this is the next best thing and will do just as well to cure a craving. Location is really awkward, interior is nothing remarkable but honestly, those things don't matter to me. I know some yelpers like those details though. Run by (what I assume) a husband and wife who are very nice. They have their kitchen in the open. Our food was in good portion and really delicious. I can't remember the names of our dishes. My husbands was spicy though and REALLY good. I also ordered turkish coffee, yum! Totally hit the spot for me. We will definitely come back again when we're craving some more persian food. read more

The owner is awesome and super friendly. I believe he's both the owner and chef. My fiance likes the hamus a lot, but it's a little bit plain for me. The pita bread is delicious, I had to get an extra. My fiance got the plate with every kind of meat, I forgot the name, but it was $20. The meats are tender and well spiced. The salad that comes with the meal gives a refreshing note, so the meal doesn't seem too heavy and meaty. They also have a traditional Turkish seating area which looks super interesting and relaxing. I would definitely go back to try their Turkish coffee and baklava. I gave four stars because the service was a little slow. read more

I enjoyed the atmosphere. There was a little section with pillows and cushions on the floor with low tables that was nice. I had lamb kebab and it was very good, well cooked and well seasoned. I'd definitely eat here again if I'm ever back in Augusta. read more

So we stopped here to order to go and they were out of falafel! I am a pescatarian so there is very little to be desired from this menu other wise. I got the shrimp kabobs very simple and very little to remark about. read more

We've been there three times and are impressed. The current lunch special, a gyro sandwich for $4, is a great deal, with plenty of tasty meat, veggies, and tzatziki sauce. All the dishes we had as a group of 6 the one time we ordered dinner were good, too. As many others have mentioned, the atmosphere is friendly and authentic, and the owners care about the customers and giving good service. Our only minor complaint is that very little bread (a single round I think) is served with the hummus or babaganoush, and we were charged when we asked for more. Definitely a place we'll keep going back to! read more

This place is great. The service can be slow but it seems to be a smaller operation more focused on creating great meals than fast meals, which I appreciate. I would highly recommend this place. Great food and great Turkish atmosphere. read more

Fantastic! I loved the food and really liked the decor. You would not think much about this place from passing by it on the road, but its truly a hidden gem. I ordered for take out this time and the food was as good as if I was sitting in the restaraunt. The owner was super nice and addressed me by my first name. This is really good personalization for customers and I dig that about this place. Next time I plan to dine in. I had the chefs special which was the #26 Troy (beef, chicken, and lamb kabobs). read more

I had the gyro, which was excellent! My wife had the falafil, and enjoyed it. For an appetizer the stuffed grape leaves were as delicious as any I've had. Serve was very good, friendly and thoroughly familar with the menu. I WILL return. read more

The gyro I ordered was huge! Loved the flatbread, it was warm and soft. Great flavor. Definitely recommend. read more
