Oaktown Kabobs

If you love burgers, their burgers are on a different level!! Not your typical plain burger, afghan style filled with spices.Service is fantastic, very helpful with any questions about their cultured menu. Definitely trying their kabobs and bowls next time.Also their fries are bomb!

Delicious Afghan kebabs, where the meat is cooked to perfection and the accompanying rice and grilled tomato are also delicious. The staff are super nice too.I'd strongly recommend ordering takeout or delivery, as the place is far from attractive, the location ain't good, and this is not someplace you'd particularly want to hang out.I'm really only deducting a star because the food is authentically mildly spiced, and therefore verrrry bland. Bring your own hot sauce.

Pleasant surprise! We tried the lamb bowl and the Mediterranean salad added chicken both very good! Both meats were tender, seasoned well, and tasted fresh! And it's a healthier alternative, I will be back! Ngl it was a lil hood outside when I pulled up LOL but don't worry it's safe and I got in and out quick. The icing on the cake is that the customer service was GREAT! I eat out a lot and it's nothing worse than getting your meal served to you by someone who is annoyed and not happy to see you. I wish I got his name but the guy who helped me was friendly and professional! I'm tippin happily every time! Thanks for grubz

Always an amazing meal when I come to Oaktown Kabob! I've had their catering as well and it's equally as good. Today I had their loaded fries with the tikka kabob on top and it's probably the best thing I've eaten in awhile! Best service, great quality food, looking forward to my next visit

Loved them when they were Pamir in Dublin and am so happy to know they are back and close for me to visit now in Oakland. Their food is amazing but they are wonderful people as well. Secret menu item BAKED CHICKEN. Just have to pre-arrange it with them and special order is 5 portions but it is beyond words AMAZING and DELICIOUS!!! Perfect way to get together with friends or family and have a fantastic meal for the holidays but not have to cook or fuss. (That said, I love it so much, ideally, I keep 2 portions for myself, it's that good!) I also see they offer new experiential items from time to time and I am excited to try some of those as well.

My wife, daughter, and I decided to grab a bite to eat here after a visit to the Oakland Zoo. The location was definitely a little on the sketchy side and the restaurant only had room for two tables. Don't let that fool you! The owners were extremely friendly, and took the time introduce themselves to us and explain everything on the menu. The food was delicious, with prominent, well-balanced spice. The meat tasted fresh and high-quality. The portions were generous. My wife and I both are excited to eat here again. I ordered the Tikkah Kabob plate, which I highly recommend. I had to fight my wife's fork on my plate, it was that good!

Great spot! Highly recommend. They've got legit kebabs and gyro, but they also have more unusual Afghani dishes like Quabuli Pallaw (I had it with the lamb shank and it was amazing ). They also do fusion burrito bowls and "Chapli burgers." So much to try! The brothers who run it are super friendly too. Definitely my favorite place in the area.

Came in for my first time a few days ago. I ordered 2 chicken kabob plates and one Chapli (afghani smash burger) plates and they were DELICIOUS. The chef made them fresh, which I very much appreciated and was well worth the wait. The meat and rice were flavorful and the portions are generous. I will definitely be returning. The chef was also very kind. So happy to have this local gem, serving fresh healthy food.

Always delicious!! Picture speaks for itself, everything cooked to succulent juicy perfection, these ppl know what they're doing with their cuisine. Great customer service on top of quality food is the bonus. Give them a try!

Delicious and tasty food! The menu consists of their traditional food/plates plus they've added other items with a twist, requested by some of their regular customers. I believe it's a family business. The staff were so friendly and helpful as I had many questions regarding the menu. Luckily, I found a great spot to eat in Oakland. I'm very pleased with the food, service and prices.
