So, in the middle of the day on Easter Sunday the three of us decide we want to go out to eat, no reservations, no pre-planning.After a quick YELP search, we called Shish Kabob who said they could accommodate us, so we headed right over.Once we got there, we were warmly greeted by the owner and his wife. The place was overall super comfortable and homey.we ordered an eggplant salad for an app with pita bread which was excellent and then for mains we ordered three different kabob platters:one ground chicken and beef,one lamb, andone chickenall came with rice and salad.I can only speak to the chicken kabob platter which was the only one that also came with a half lemon, and will say that it was overall delicious. The meat was well seasoned, the rice was warm and delicious and the salad was so good, that we got another big bowl to share.Overall Shish Kabob was a big win. We left with a takeout order of lentil and noodle soup along with a commitment to return in the future!

My first time eating at a Persian restaurant in RI! Got the beef soltani platter. The platter consists of beef kebabs and minced meat in the form of kebab over rice. The kebabs were juicy, tender, flavorful and delicious. The rice was quite good too. The portion size was good for 2 people. Overall I enjoyed the food. The only drawbacks are the location and the prices are a bit high.

Charming little restaurant with pretty Persian tea sets and trinkets throughout. Owner is warm and welcoming. It was a fortuitous day as he made Ghormeh Sabzi Stew, the national dish of Iran, for us to sample, which was EXQUISITE. I'm surprised it wasn't on the menu, but hopefully this review will convince the owner to add it on!!! We also liked the Beef Sultani and Beef Koobideh. Next time I return I will call and ask if Ghormeh Sabzi Stew is available. It's a must try!

Fantastic place! My group ordered almost everything on the menu and it was all fresh and delicious! Everything from the grapes leaves hummus and bread to the rice, salad and shish kabob was spectacular! The place is small and cozy and exceptionally clean. The staff are warm and welcoming. I felt like I was visiting family. I will definitely go back for more!

The owners are super friendly, the kabob platters were delicious! And they have the best grape leaves in town! Also the dipping yogurt he threw in for free to try complimented the dish perfectly!

This shop changed hands relatively recently. The food is fresh and tasty. The multiple types of baklava are a plus as is the individual sumac packs included with takeout.
