I am still amazed at the Mediterranean food in kentucky of all places. This place brings it with good atmosphere and low prices. I got the shwarrma lunch...$5.89 all day long. Wow. Great food for a reasonable price. If you get a chance try this i recommend it.
I wouldn't have thought I was a very Mediterranean kinda guy, but had the beef kabob sandwich which was good. Garlic sauce, pickles, onion, tomato, beef in a wrap. Comfortable interior. Will go back when adventurous again!
One of my favorite Mediterranean food places. The staff are always friendly and the food is pretty good for fast on the go Middle Eastern foods!
Love it!. I've tried middle eastern food in different places here in the US and was amazed at how authentic the food is at mr kabab. the kababs, falafel and shawrma are just tasty! I loved how clean the place is (and the bathroom!). I went with two babies and we made a huge mess but the employers were really nice and even though I tried to clean up the rice and food mess, they won't let me, they cleaned it themselves and even gave us free baklava :)
Grat food, fresh delicious and reasonably priced. Staff was friendly and my picky eater trie their baklava which was "almost" as good as my moms :-)
Amazing! We would come here five years ago when we lived here. Now when ever we come back its the first place we go to!!!! Get the garlic sauce!!!!
Love me some Mr. Kabab. Umm Lamb.. delicious! The sauces salty stuff on the gyro.... Heaven! This place is a winner, winner. Now I would make this longer but I am going there now to get some lunch. Just shut up and take my money Mr. Kabab!
Ultimate gyro: very good flavor.the meat was luke warm. It needed to be heated more. The pita is packed with fresh tomatoes and onions as well as a good tzatzki sauce. The baklava on the other hand was not good. It was not flaky, it had very little honey flavor and the nuts were very soft. I assume it was an old batch they didn't want to throw out.
Authentic Mediterranean At It's Best. Food is spectacular. Everything was made fresh and in house from the meat to the salad and hummus. Hummus was deliciously creamy. Chicken and Beef Shwarma had amazing flavor and spices. The yogurt sauce was deliciously garlicy and tangy!!!
Would abosultely recommend for good, fresh Mediterranean food.
One of the best customer service experiences I've ever had. My card got canceled due to being at risk for fraud, so it was declined. I had to run to the bank to get a replacement card. The woman ran my food out to my car and told me to just come back and pay whenever I could. I rushed top the bank and returned 15 minutes later. The woman said, "you didn't have to come right back. You could have come whenever. It's just food." The food is absolutely amazing and the people are some of the nicest, most generous, and most genuine people in Lexington! I can't say enough good things about this place!
Awesome Restaurant. One of my favorite eateries in town. Every time I go to Mr Kabas the food is fresh, and beyond tasty, and the staff is super friendly.
If you have not been, mark it down on your calendar, or just get up out of your chair and make that trip today to MR Kababs for the Lunch specials, the best Gyro truly in town, Baklava, Minced Meat pie, Falafal, etc. Try the home made hot sauce also from the food bar, just ask to have some on your Shwarma.
Look for me in there around lunch at least a few times a week also. I am the 6'7" tall guy with glasses and brown hair, usually with dress slacks and some kind of a polo shirt. --- Jared
Love me some Mr. Kabab. Their lamb and chicken (both kababs and wraps) are phenomenal, as are their hummus and falafel, which I think they make egyptian-style, with fava beans instead of chickpeas. They also have good baklava. The best part of eating here though is the wonderful yogurt sauce recipe they use!!! It has just the right amount of garlic and is the perfect consistency. The staff has always been super nice to me. Only thing I dont like about the place is the low health inspection rating... think it was about a 75 or something. Definitely gives one pause, but not enough to keep me from coming back for more of their awesome, authentic food!
By far the best middle eastern food in LEX. Mr. Kabab imo is by far the best middle eastern food in Lexington. I've tried them all but none have such tasty meat, especially their lamb kufta or beef shawarma's....sry not a fan of chicken anything but do prefer theirs over any of the other 3 or 4 other shawarma eateries in town. Furthermore, their fresh salads are delicious, and they offer a great fattoush, babaganoush, and anything else. Lastly, don't miss out on their spinach pie's, or even the cheese & meat ones.......yumm!
I've been going to Mr. Kabab for the past 3-4yrs, since moving to Lexington, and even though I spend half of each year overseas, I cannot wait to get back for some Mr Kabab.
Thx guys for all the years of wicked yummy food!!!
Reliably acceptable. Everything I have ever had from Mr. Kebab's has been consistently decent. I would not say they are my favorite Mediterranean place but acceptable.
The best thing I have had here has been the wraps.
Mr Kabab in Lexington, KY. This is my favorite Mediterranean food in Lexington! Friendly staff, excellent food! The garlic sauce is the best I've had anywhere. I recommend the chicken kebab platter. All the food is wonderfully fresh, from the salads, to the hummus, to the falafels, to the kebabs, to the very yummy baklava. I drive from Georgetown just to eat here!
Great food, can't beat the price. My husband and I went to Mr. Kabab for dinner recently and we were so pleased. We're new to town and were hesitant to try to replace our old Mediterranean deli. Mr. Kabab was great! My husband said the falafel was some of the best he's eaten--amazingly light and full of flavor. Even our picky 18-month old ate it. I had the chicken shawerma and it was delicious. The hummus was creamy, and the pita was thin (not thick like a flat bread) and tasty. We took home some baklava and it didn't disappoint either. The cherry on top? Our meal was less than $20. We'll definitely be going back!
Kebab happiness. Mr. kebab's is a very reliable and delicious restaurant. i feel that they represent the finest of the small mediterranean themed eateries which have popped up in lexington. this is my favorite. their entrees which i have tried (most of them) are very good. i would also recommend their chicken wraps and their meet, cheese and spinach pies are all delicious as well. all salads very good as well. good job, guys.
Best Shawarma in Lexington. My husband and I visit Mr. Kabab's everytime we're in Lexington. They serve the most amazing Shawarma! The restaurant itself is very cozy and the staff are always friendly and helpful. We love this place!
My husband and I have been here twice and whenever we crave Mediterranean style chicken over rice, we’ll be back. When we moved to Lexington, we were looking for something to replace our halal cart chicken over rice. Although, this is not exactly like that, it is still delicious in its own unique way.
We like that the yellow rice is on the saucier side and we love the pickles and onions topping on the entree. Chicken was flavorful but just a smidge dry. The portions are huge. The staff was very kind.
If I could give ten stars, I would! Very friendly people and delicious food. Each thing on my plate was so flavorful and so different from everything else but it all tasted wonderful together!
Excellent place! The lamb gyro and Sharma were out of this world! We haven't had a dull item yet. We keep trying different items each time. My wife is in love with the yellow rice. Not sure the name of it, but it is good! Couldn't recommend them highly enough.
Unbelievably amazing!!! Seriously so good, I'm so glad I read all the reviews and have it a try because it may now be my favorite Mediterranean food... ever. And that's saying something because I love Mediterranean food and am always on the look out for these little hidden gems. The owner and his family are friendly and the food... well, it was fresh, tasty and worth the wait to have it prepared in front of us. Do yourself a favor and come by and enjoy this place.
Nice Mediterranean food. We went for lunch. Food served fresh. We had Lamb/Chicken Platter. Lamb was tasty and well cooked. Chicken was half cooked though. Rice was good. Then we had Falafel platter. Falafel was really good and seems fresh. Hummus and Pita bread was also good. If you want to spend 1hr standing in line for Sahara and you want same quality food or even better this is the place to go.. I would avoid chicken though.
The food was so tasty, and the portions were great! I would definitely go back
Probably the best Greek food I've ever had. Deserves to be presented in a full scale restaurant.
I love Mr. Kabab so much - I think it's the best gyro in town. The falafel sandwich is also worth writing home about. Sometimes when they're super busy they can be slow here, but the food has always been worth it. And the cheese pies! I dream about those.
