It's a must try Persian food if you are in chicago land area. They have moved to a new location. It's much bigger space with the same old great taste. Extremely customer service friendly. Prompt on orders. 5 stars all the way! Come support this joint, you won't regret it!

My absolute favorite thing about kaboboi is the free valet system. I don't know why more restaurants don't implement this system because I'm about 95% more likely to go to a restaurant if it has free parking, especially if it's on a busy road like this one. The location is unassuming, but is quite large on the inside. The look inside is a clean and modern style which I liked. We got multiple platters brought out to us, and I liked the grilled chicken kabobs and chicken shawarma best. We asked for the garlic sauce, toom, and it as a light green color which I haven't seen before, and I get toom at literally every middle eastern place because it makes the meal for me. I was surprised the sauce was light green, but it was really strong, like kind of grab your tongue strong but it was really good. This garlic sauce was strong, so if you're not into that you might not enjoy it. I, however, loved it. The grilled meats were done to perfection and the dill rice was nice. Would definitely come again!

08/15/24 - I had lunch w/a former co worker Tayfun @ a Kabobi Grill. He and I worked together @ OWPP Architects for several years. Even though I'm retired Tayfun has a firm and is still practicing architecture in Istanbul Turkey. The beauty is he still loves Chicago & still comes here several times a year while living & practicing architecture in Istanbul. My wife & I are planning a trip to Istanbul in the near future so this lunch had a duel purpose. It was great to see him to catch him & gather information on Istanbul. He has graciously offered to show us some highlights from his beautiful city when we do go there.Thanks Tayfun for lunch. It was great seeing you again & we look forward to seeing you in Istanbul when we come thereFYI - Kabobi Grill moved around the corner from Kedzie to 3224 W Lawerence Ave

A good friend of mine recommended this place for good persian food. Welp... I should have listened to her sooner. This is a hidden gem in the city I believe it recently moved from a nearby location. We arrived about 15 minutes before the lunch specials were up and so we promptly ordered so that we could try a variety of different things. To start you do have to order at the counter however they will let you sit down and then come up in order so that was nice. Additionally they do not sell beer and wine in the restaurant, however you can bring your own and there is a small corkage fee ($6 bottle of wine & $1 for each beer). So BYOB. We weren't prepared for this so we had to go across the street to the local liquor store which had plenty of cold options to purchase. Onto the food my dish was the Chicken thigh Kabob and the Beef Koubideh Kabob. The beef koubideh kabob was a skewers of juicy, charbroiled, seasoned ground sirloin, served with grilled tomato. Everything was so flavorful. In addition to the meats my plate featured a cranberry rice (upcharge) cucumber salad, hummus and soft pita bread. My husband grabbed the chicken breast kabob with grilled veggies instead of rice. The food was plentiful and we were able to take some left overs home. We went here on my birthday and so it was a vibe but I really wish I would have some dessert as it looks really. All in all very nice lunch. I would definitely come back to try some more of the different entries and also I realize they have some dishes that are normally are hard to find: Baba Ghannouj, Dolmeh, Persian Salad and Falafel. I also peeped that they had this black persian tea that everyone was buying and I wish I would have purchased some of the raw tea leaves to go which they did have for sale. You have not been I would definitely say come try this fresh family friendly restaurant.

When you first go in they ask if you want to eat in or take out. We went for dine in. So we got sat down in the dining room. When your ready to order you go to the front to place the order and pay. .I ordered the lamb kebab and filet mignon kebab with dill basmati rice. Also got the tomatoes lentil vegetarian soup. And some turkish coffee. .The kebab plate is big and the portion is alot. Easily split between 2 people. I loved the meat, it is so flavorful, temperature hot. The rice was fluffy and moist. Paired with my tomatoes lentil soup is perfect pairing. .I had a good dinner with my friends. I'm so grateful to have a friend to show me their favorite neighborhood eats. I am glad I got to try something authentic. .Turkish coffee is served in a little ladle copper shot . The turkish coffee is small but strong and flavorful. .Overall I really like the food. The service is great and on it. They have great service on checking up. Hope this review helps. Thanks for reading. Have a yelptastic day. Follow me for more.

Unfortunately found a pretty long hair in my food, I am a guy with short hair. I took it back and one of the guys showed it to the chef and I saw them just laughing out loud. It was horrible. So had to give pretty low rating. They replaced the rice with hair and gave me the same kabobs back. Food tasted good but I have had better. Had been craving Persian for a long time so it did fulfil the craving. The place looks nice, calming but could be cleaner.

Hands down the best Persian/middle eastern food in Chicago. The koobideh here is better than anywhere I've had. It's the perfect amount of char/crisp on the outside, and the most juicy, tender meat on the inside. The barg melts in your mouth and falls apart so effortlessly. They have a unique twist on the mast mousir with dill that was surprisingly incredible, and the Persian ice cream at the end was the cherry on top. Definitely coming back here again and again.

Good food, great atmosphere, the service was friendly and quick. They checked on us a few times to make sure the food was to our liking. For the price we hit the jackpot!

I've been coming to this Persian restaurant for over two years, and it never disappoints. The combo plate with beef koubideh and beef filet is hands-down my go-to always cooked perfectly and full of flavor. The Persian salad is super fresh and pairs perfectly with the meal. But the real star for me is the hot sauce. It's so good that I always ask for extra!What really sets this place apart, though, is the vibe. The owner is incredibly generous and friendly, making you feel like a regular from day one. If you're into Persian food or just want to try something new, you have to check this place out.
