    Food is very delicious! Service is the top. Very kind and polite people! They asked if we want spicy options which is great since we don't like spicy food! Meat was cooked perfectly well as being asked. Not salty. Everything was excellent and now I understand why they have such good reviews!

    I stopped in at The Kebab Zone recently for takeout. They are located next door to Big Apple Pizzeria and across the street from the RPI Campus near the old School 14 building. This very small eatery is geared towards takeout and delivery (Grub Hub) with very limited seating 7 stools here. They offer Turkish Mediterranean food (halal) including kebabs, gyros, wraps, burgers, dinner plates, mezes, fried appetizers, chips, cold drinks, and desserts (cake & cheesecake slices). They offer discount offers (10 percent off) and specials to RPI students. I ordered a Beef Shish Kebab Wrap ($11.99 plus tax) which comes with choice of sauce and a bag of Lays potato chips. The place was a bit busy with RPI students waiting for their takeout food. I was given a stapled bag in 10 minutes and I head out. However, I open the paper bag in the car and discover they gave me the wrong food which was a grilled chicken plate with veggies and rice. I could've just shrugged it off and eat this instead of beef shish kebab. I walk back into the shop and hand them back the wrong order and they ask how much my order was. I think they lost track of my order since those students before me ordered a lot of food. They make my order on the spot for a beef shish kebab wrap with my choice of fillings including adding hot sauce and extra white sauce too. I was given the chips and more white sauce for dipping. Now the order was correct. The wrap was a good size with a decent amount of grilled chewy beef cubes and fillings inside the soft wrap with savory and spicy flavors and dipping into the white sauce. Overall, the food tasted pretty good. I would probably order from here again, but it was a good thing I checked my order before leaving area. Online delivery drivers are not allowed to open sealed or stapled bags.

    Continuing my search for the perfect Doner dinner and happened upon this new spot near RPI in Troy. The reviews online made me optimistic, but boy was I disappointed. The baba ghanoush was the furthest thing from tasting like a baba ghanoush I have ever tried. The addition of lentils was strange to me but I went with it, because well extra protein, but it was completely flavorless and I'm not sure what it's made out of but it's definitely not eggplant. The lamb and beef gyro tasted gamey, which usually points to the meat being bad, not cleaned well before cooking or not prepared well. I couldn't eat it at all. The saving grace of my meal were the spinach and feta pastry and the lentil soup. This meal was a solid 2.5, I can't give it a 3 because the amount of rice in the platter was disappointing if I had decided to eat it, but the rice tasted like it was leftover and rewarmed up. Unfortunately we will not be going back here. I'll be continuing my search for the best Doner and hoping to find one that tastes good and where great service is also provided.

    Beef and chicken gyros (or doner as known in most of Europe, original Turkish).

    Alibaba is probably the oldest Turkish restaurant in the Albany area, and it recently got a nice…read moreupgrade -- from the furniture to the serving plates and menus. The place feels much more modern and inviting now. Our family especially enjoys the beyti kebab, the güveç, and their pide. I haven't tried the pizza yet, but since their pide is very good, I imagine the pizza would also be solid. For me though, the real highlight at Alibaba is the mezze. In Turkish cuisine, grilled meats and kebabs are almost always enjoyed with a variety of mezze. They might technically be sides, but they're a big part of the whole experience. These days there are several Turkish kebab places in the area, but none of them offer a wide selection of fresh, house-made mezze like Alibaba does. At many places you're lucky if you find one or two options, often just a basic ezme. At Alibaba you'll find around ten different mezze and each one tastes distinct and freshly made. Every time I tell myself I'll just take a little... and somehow I end up filling a big mezze plate. Honestly, even when we grill at home, our motivation is picking up mezze from Alibaba to go with it. I'm not sure if it gets the credit it deserves, but don't skip the mezze here -- you'd be missing out. In fact, start with the mezze and figure out the rest later :))

I liked the menu &…read morereviews, and It was located in small strip of businesses on Guideboard Road near the Halfmoon Diner and Sorrentinos Deli. It was easy to place an online order. It is an open Kitchen mostly takeout place with several booths/tables for dine in, if wanted. Ordered for pickup: Chicken Bihari Boti, six pieces Lamb Curry with Rice The chicken was very tender and delicious. A small salad was included. I would order this dish again even though the menu has many enticing items. The Lamb Curry included a tasty, flavorful white rice that complemented the curry well. The owner included extra sauces including a Mint-Yogurt one that was delicious. I should have ordered one of the many varieties of Naan, and next time I will. Check out their menu. The owner greeted you with a smile. Two others prepared the food. While another customer (Gyros) and I waited for our orders at 11:30 am (I arrived early), the owner served us a sample of their Kheer after asking us if we had a milk allergy. This traditional Indian Rice dessert was far superior in flavor and texture to what I have eaten at other local restaurants that serve it. (Kheer is a creamy, traditional dessert made by simmering rice with whole milk, sugar, and aromatics like cardamom and saffron.) The owner even included a complimentary serving of Kheer with my order. Nice! They thank you for your order when you leave. The restaurant was pristine including the recently washed windows. Parking is plentiful. I want to order food from here for my family who likes this cuisine.

    Delicious food in an unassuming strip mall in Clifton Park…read more I met a friend here on a weekend night and they had four huge booths. We were the only ones dining in, which we didn't mind at all. We ordered at the counter and they brought the food to our table. We chose to share the Shrimp Curry, Chicken Tandoori, hummus and garlic naan. They brought the hummus out first, which came in a plastic container with a lid. It looked really liquidy but after stiring it with a spoon, it thickened up. The flavor was fantastic! The pita they served with it was warm too. They brought all of the entrees out together and a few minutes later, one of the employees came by with the Haleem Chicken, which he said was a new menu item that he wanted us to try on the house. It was stewed chicken with lentils and spices. Everything was absolutely delicious and had such great flavor. We couldn't pick a favorite. They served the dishes with their hot sauce and a yogurt sauce. Both were delicious too. Overall, while it seems most people pick up take out, dining in was a nice experience too. Highly recommend!

Heads up that they are CASH ONLY. I ordered the Chicken Shishkabob Plate, which came with chicken skewers, lemon potatoes, Pita, and tzatziki. Everything on the plate was delicious, and the chicken was nice and juicy. It also came with a Greek salad, which is one of my all-time favorites. Most places make it the American way with lettuce, but after visiting Greece, I realized it doesn't have any lettuce. It's cucumbers, tomatoes, red onion, olive, and Feta. In the summer, it's especially good because it's light and refreshing. My boyfriend ordered the lamb Gyro, and it was cooked perfectly. Such a delicious meal! We also had a great conversation with one of the staff members, who was so welcoming and appreciative of our business. I highly recommend The Greek House!

Even though I am Greek that has nothing to do with this review. It was lunchtime there were only 2 tables occupied. Not a good sign. I had the Moussaka and it was tasteless and past it's time as far as being tresh. I truly hope new ownership has taken over due to the positive reviews. I sincerely hope so. I don't like writing negative reviews but it was disappointing. With the location and the need for authentic Greek food in the area the potential Is endless. Sorry for the negative review. This was 3 years and maybe more. I live in Albany and with the positive reviews l could be there in a heartbeat. I apologise for the restaurant review but honesty is a must. Best of luck to the restaurant.
