18 reviews for Kabob Station
Kabob Station is one of my favorite restaurants around. I've been eating there for about 9 years and the quality of the food is consistently excellent. It should be, as the cooks have been the same two guys for as long as I can remember.
If I remember correctly, they make their own pita bread. It is delicious! We always order a few extra pieces so we don't have to fight over them. Their gyro meat is sliced into chunks and then grilled over open flame. It is the best gyro meat around. My mouth is starting to water as I type this. Their hummus has great flavor and consistency and the spices they sprinkle on it give it an extra pop in your mouth. Even their salad dressing is some of the best I've ever tasted. I'm pretty sure they make it there, but if I could buy it I think I'd eat a salad every day!
Do yourself a favor and go eat at Kabob Station. If you're a Syrian food junkie or have never eaten it before, I can promise you you'll love it.
Come here often for lunch and dinner. Always leave full yet sways have leftovers. The staff is incredibly friendly and the mediterrean food is top notch. The vegetarian combo is my favorite but also recommend the king combo. Price average about $9 - $12 per meal.
Stopped in for Lunch last week and had their $5.99 sandwich/fries/drink special. I ordered to-go and had the lamb kabob, which was very good. Serving size was perfect, could barley finish my fries.
Going to try a Gyro plate next time. Service was quick and I'll definitely be back back for my kabob cravings.
Overall, I was very impressed with Kabob Station. Very reasonable prices, solid food, friendly service and a small / family vibe to at the restaurant.
For a plate lunch, it is just under 8 dollars and sandwiches around 5. I opted for the Lamb and Beef Shwarma, which is accompanied by delicious fresh pita breed, creamy hummus, rice, a small Mediterranean salad and a fountain soda.
The flavor of the Shwarma was spot on, spicy and tangy with out being overpowering. Different from what I had previously in Israel as far as the cut of the meat and the flavor, but still very enjoyable.
There was only one server, who I believe is also the owner. It was very busy at lunch time, which resulted in the food coming out relatively slow, but this is somewhat expected for a small restaurant at 12:30 on a friday afternoon.
My coworkers spoke very highly of this place, so I went in with great expectations. I was not disappointed. I will definitely be back.
I forget to eat here very often, and will make it a point to patron it more. My wife, who has sampled authentic food, says their Gyros are as close as you can get to the real thing. I think its a good change of pace for my usual diet.
The setting is not formal at all, more like a mom and pop hole in the wall. The service is great despite being only 1 person.
Their lamb is fantastic and their pita bread is tasty. I highly suggest the lamb gyro.
Their baklava is delicious as well.
The place is what I expect from a hole-in-the-wall falafel place, but it needs better food and a liquor license. The fries are usually soggy.
What's not to like about a good freshly made pita and some well seasoned hummus combined with the meat or veggie of your choice? Combine that with some of the best french fries I've had at a restaurant in recent memory and low prices, you've got another winner (and it's up North!).
I've finally figured out that there probably isn't a middle eastern style restaurant that is going to make their own gyros so I've gotta quit ordering my lamb baloney at every MESR I go to. I had the shawarma beef and lamb entree and it was tasty. I have grown so accustomed to the way Jerusalem Restaurant's dishes are served that I did find myself missing the saffron or turmeric flavor in the rice and fresh parsley in the dish but this was good nonetheless and fresh pita! Jay-ru still is my present fav for a MESR but hey, any (good) port in a storm, or as Stephen Stills put it, " Love the One Your With".
I will pretty much eat hommos with anything. I took Yelpers advice and stopped in here for a to-go dinner. This is a non-descript little shop located in a strip mall just west of I-25 on 120th. I ordered the veggie dinner plate which included falafel, hommos, baba ghanoush (ok, I don't know how to spell it, sorry), fatoush and pita to scoop it all up. Hommos was awesome. I wasn't crazy about the falafel but I will definately stop back and try the gyros or the shwarma. If you are up north jonesin' for middle eastern food, I would skip the mall food and give this little joint a try!
Best hummus and pita bread I've ever had.
We tend to get take out because the place is super-tiny and the service tends to be "functional" at best. Although, if you're in the mood, it can be a lot of fun to watch the staff (who I assume are family) argue with and/or tease each other throughout the night. It's kind of like going to someone's house for dinner.
The food, though, trumps all. Everything I've had has been excellent. I tend to stick to the Kabob Station Combo of the King Combo just so I can get a bit of everything.
I went here today after reading the reviews for take out. I was VERY disappointed. I am also from Portland (grew up there) and there is a restaurant called Demetri's on SW Burnside that is the best ever Greek food. REAL Greek food. I admit I'm very spoiled by that and so continues my quest to find GREAT Greek food here.
Ok, The place is a dive but some of the best places are right? It was 12:30pm and all the tables were taken but that means its good right? Not so much...
I got the chicken kabob combo and the side of what I thought was supposed to be spanakopita but it was a joke.They called it spinach pie. It looked nothing like a pie. It was these two very tiny (about the size of my pinkie finger) thingies that looked like a rope intertwined with spinach. They were awful, I gave them to my dog. He'll eat anything. The Chicken was fabulous and so was the little baklava (one of the best I've ever had) but you might want to sop up all the grease first or it will run down your face. The tzatziki was very nice although not the best I've ever had. The hummus was disgusting!!! Way too much tahini! I LOVE flavor and I mean FLAVOR!!!! The texture was nice but it had NO flavor. Dog got that too. Hummus is supposed to be made with garlic and lemon. And lots of it! I mean a buttload people! Greek and Med. cooking are supposed to be very flavorful, this was not, so I don't get why everyone was saying it was so good. The little salad was ok but the rice was boring. In Greece they do a lemon infused rice which is great. The service was pretty quick today and that guy in the back isn't bad on the eyes!
I really liked the food here, I got an order of lamb kabobs lunch platter and an order of kibbeh. The lamb kabobs were fairly good, nice and tender and not too much seasoning and the kibbeh was great! I was disappointed that the flat bread was store bought and not freshly made but that's ok. The restuarant itself was lacking a lot in terms of ambiance but the food was worth it.
Really excellent middle eastern food. I used to work across the street, and I've been coming here since the first week it opened, probably 8 years ago. (There used to be a phenomenal Italian spot in the space). Fantastic hummus and pita. Get the kanaffe for dessert, it's like a middle eastern cheesecake with little crispy bits on top.
Best middle eastern cuisine in the Northern Denver area - no competition. Fantastic family run operation, love the waitstaff and the cooks! My wife and I have been coming here for over 4 years now, and the quality hasn't changed one iota...its just fantastic. Our favorites are the Gyros plate, best dish on the menu, and the kabob station combo for those that want a little of everything. Watch out on the weekend nights after 6, this place can get more crowded than you would expect. Same goes if there was a recent coupon put into the Broomfielder for this place.
One gripe - during the winter, can the other patrons NOT hold the door wide open for people, please?! It's chilly outside and you're ruining the dining experience of others to be polite to your immediate party.
Really I have to say that this place is by far the best food of its kind in Colorado. I am from Portland and they have some excellent Middle Eastern Restaurants but the Kabob Station rocks!! With the same 3 people generally there if you are in there more than 3times they know you and know what you are going to order!! I just love them. Plus the younger guy in the kitchen is not bad to stare at while you wait! Go early or you might have to wait for a table they only have about 12 or so!
This your run of the mill middle eastern food place. I tasted a little bit of the beef kebob, a little bit of the chicken kebob, and a slice of the tiny appetizer spinach roll-up. The rice that came with the kebobs was greasy. Although that seems to be the norm of every middle eastern restaurant I've dined at so far. The star of the meal was the fluffy pita bread, served free with the meal.
The service was great. Although I'm not sure if I would go here again. But then again, I like a little zing to my food, and restaurant middle eastern food never seem to provide that.
My husband and I eat here all the time and love it. They have the most flavorful hummus. You can eat in the restuarant which is very low key or take out.
Great home-made fresh pita bread and the best creamiest hummus I've ever tasted. It gets combined beautifully in the ridiculously cheap "hummus pita sandwich". I also love their yogurt/cucumber soup. The restaurant ain't exactly beautiful, though it isn't a fast food place. The prices are better than Falafel King's, though my husband prefers Falafel King for falafels and gyros ...
Kabob Station, a tiny restaurant hidden away in a crappy rundown strip mall....don't let that fool you. This place is wonderful. Most of the food is delicious, ok, the 'pies', cheese, spinach and one other, were boring, but besides those, delicious. The hummus is awesome, smoothest and creamiest I've ever had, you will never be able to even look at the stuff sold in the grocery store again. By the way, if you too like the hummus, try the Shwarma w/hummus, mmmmmm. They are super family friendly. I think they also cater or at least you can order in bulk. This little gem is everything that those crappy big chains are not and I love going there! If you want to try something different, call ahead (cause it's not on the menu) and ask if the chef can make his special salmon, it's tasty, ginger and I don't know what else in there, but very satisfying. Go to Kabob Station, your stomach will thank you.
