The portion is small compared to what you pay. The food is low quality, doesn’t taste like original Koobideh and Joojeh at all. I taste cinnamon in Koobideh!! Non of kebabs were not juicy at all, they were dry and tough I can say. The customer service is awful. The chef was explaining what parts of lamb and beef he have used to cook the meal for half an hour while my guests waiting in the car. Don’t try this place bcz it doesn’t worth your time, money and health.

Best donair, shawarma and Persian kababs and kababs platter place in the city! Donairs are huge and always have nice fresh veggies and toppings. You can customize your order and the owner is really accommodating. The Owner has always been really great to us and takes cleanliness very seriously! It is definitely a good thing to call ahead for a kababs platter order. Highly recommend!Parking: It's a lot with plenty of space to park just off 14th St.

For the best koobide in town head straight to Royal kabab! The meat was tender and perfectly seasoned. Generous portions and secure packaging made for a satisfying experience. Highly recommended for a delicious takeout treat!

You wont a get a good quality food from here. To begin with, this is not a place to sit and dine. We mainly ordered from here for takeaways. But we just stopped that.The main problem is that for a take away food, time is of essence and you want to pick your food when it is freshly cooked and warm. The owner ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS cooks your food between 30-45 minutes in advance and by the time you pick it up it is already cold. Reheating a Kebab would never bring the real flavour back. It is just reheating a Steak. If you are starving to death, of course you would eat anything. But when you are looking for a quality meal, everything should be done properly, including the time that order would be picked.We wont be using this place anymore, period.

We did not know it was a take-out only, and we were supposed to call and order a few hours in advance. But the owner was nice enough to take our order and cook for us while we were there. Delicious food and good quality ?
