Z Kabob

I've been coming to this place for nearly 10 years. The decor has had some issues, but has recently been updated -- also hygiene has also improved overall. Make note that this is not a full-fledged restaurant-- so nothing fancy, leave that out of the equation. However, food is fantastic, tasty, fresh and authentic. I love the gyros, and the many other dishes as well. The naan and veggie samosas are exquisite. Too many other eateries like this have been "Americanized", with short-cuts and poorly prepared knockoffs -- but this one serves real dishes from Middle East cuisine menu. Service is good, but then they are usually very busy! The head cashier knows me by sight, and my stomach knows what it likes -- and I recommend you visit!

Z kabob has had its up and downs. However recently the food has been very delicious and the place looks a lot better than before. Hot and very fresh .

Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible customer service at exactly 6:20 on 3/24 I experienced horrible customer from this guy who clearly needs to be in another profession

Came here for a quick lunch on a Saturday while shopping. I didn't see the Yelp reviews and I'm glad I didn't because it would have most definitely deterred me away from the place. Boyfriend and I thought the place would be a middle eastern spot based on the way it was decorated from the outside as well as the inside. But when we got in it was more so just a halal south Asian restaurant that just happened to also serve our favorite chicken over rice dish. The restaurant offered the usual curries and biriyanis as well as lassis and chai. So we got the chicken over rice (me) and the combo over rice (him) and a side of desi spiced chai. The chicken/combo over rice tasted like a fusion of Indian and traditional halal street cart style food. The chicken was clearly tandoori chicken chopped up into bite sized pieces. The rice was so well seasoned. Overall, yummy and quite filling. We both couldn't finish our food so got a doggy bag to take home. Our total came out close to $35 which was a little bit more than what we would have wanted to pay for lunch but the food was delicious and well worth it. We might stop by again after we have tried all the neighboring restaurants.

So I used to live in West Alex and this was my favorite kabob place, hands down. My go-to was the boneless chicken kabob with extra chickpeas. Yum.Moved to Falls Church and barely get to Z Kabob anymore. Had a chance to go today and was excited when I arrived; new menu, they upgraded the register area and it appears as if there was new staff. Sorely disappointed once I tried the food. Don't get me wrong, the chicken was delicious and moist. The naan was thick and tasteless. My favorite chickpeas were now very greasy and flavorless. I unfortunately ordered an extra side of chickpeas which cost me $4.99 that I'm not sure I'm even going to eat. The customer service was friendly but food quality and taste have changed. I doubt I'll be back again.

Service wasn't too friendly. Got the chicken kabob meal and the food was good, but I felt I didn't get my $ worth portion size when I compare it to other kabob spots in the area.

Friendly customer service, the food was top-tier, and the atmosphere of the restaurant was nice and peaceful. The staff are very welcoming!

Horrendous place, beware! I'd make better food when I'm being lazy and a couch potato on Sundays .. Food that's quite atrocious m, is waay better than their Customer Service, which you cannot top, lolWhen you address issue while dining in about quality of meat (absolutely disgusting) you're met w/ animus behavior and having trays snatched before you're able to take photos, purposely!Kanal or Kamar (owner) has the authorities called o him as a last resort when he touches our food refusing our money back-- stating their "policy" does not work that way, having our food remade was the only option, lolol He evidently, doesn't realize that's not how things work in the US .. Police arrived, and got us our money back after such an atrocious meap

I got the boneless chicken plate. It was sooo good. Came with basmati rice, chickpeas, and some cucumbers. I enjoyed the flavor of the chicken. I also got the veggie samosas. They were amazing.

If you like booger in your food then eat at z kabob. The rude cashier/manager/ or whatever he was kept cleaning his nostrils with his hands then handled money and food. Gloves, tissue, and etiquette lessons are in order. The Health Department will have a ball inspecting this gross place. It just did not look sanitary. I wish I had taken a video to post here. I do not recommend eating there and will not return myself.
