Shish Kabob House

This is an excellent restaurant! Restaurant is clean and inviting. Service is quick and pita and hummus to die for. Weekends include music and a small floor for dancing. The food is amazing. The chicken kabob is fan freaking tactic! We order delivery here for lunch often! Highly recommend!

We ordered pickup for 5:30pm, came to pick up and they told us someone messed up the time for pick up at 6:30pm… Then we waited for more than 1 hour and we are still waiting now. Don’t know when the food is ever gonna be ready…

I was looking forward to a pleasant evening out with my hubby. We are always so busy with our businesses that it’s rare we ever get a chance to go out to dinner. Unfortunately for us, we made the poor decision to come here.
Hubby had warned me about the awful service here, but I’m open minded; I like to give every restaurant a chance before I write them off. Besides, I had heard that this place serves some awesome Mediterranean cuisine. With that being said, I’m not exaggerating when I say that we waited 2 HOURS for our food. The worst part is that we never even received it! After being told countless times by our waiter that our food will be done in «10 minutes», we eventually came to the conclusion that it was never going to arrive. Like several other smart parties before us, we decided to just get up and leave.
I don’t know how the owners think this is acceptable. At some point when tables are leaving one after the other without even being served, they have to realize that some changes need to be made. This review is solely based on service. I’d be interested in trying this place again. I’ll just make sure I have a few hours to spare.

Really delicious catered food for a private party.
I enjoyed the food immensely.
I have friends from Armenia and have visited Mediterranean countries so I think this restaurant
has a niche.
I can’t wait to visit this restaurant.

Found this place on Unilocal…
I came in and was greeted by a nice lady and told her I was here for pick up. She said it’s almost ready so I waited. Next, this obnoxious lady comes and yells across the semi elegant restaurant… «Have you been helped?» I said yes. She started to have a discussion with the nice lady. I guess there was a confusion about the order and the name. She proceeded to give me the wrong order. Then the nice lady tried to stop her and would not listen. She apologized and told me that sorry that it’s not my order. Then I hear her from the back yelling at the other workers about he miscommunication. As a customer this is uncomfortable. Poor guy she was yelling to. It’s not a big deal, just have a proper and professional discussion about communication being key. Do not involve your clients and have them listen to frustrated employees yelling at each other in the back. Anyway, this really bothered me because I first had a really good impression with the restaurant and it went down hill when this lady came up and killed the mood.
The nice lady was awesome… Very professional and caring. She even said… Have a nice dinner sir. If it wasn’t for her, I would of given a 1 star. The food was great!

Always been a fan of this place when I crave kabob but the last two times I’ve been there was quite disappointing because the meat was dry and lack favors. I Hope to have a better luck next time.

Amazing food. I got this gift certificate from eRewards and I wanted to try something new. They had this eggplant appetizer that comes with pita bread that I couldn’t find anywhere but back when I lived in Virginia. I ordered the beef and chicken kabob platter that came with salad and an option for fries or rice. I chose the rice. It was so good. I couldn’t even finish it all. It’s definitely worth the price, especially for heavy eaters. The service was great! The server checked up on us to make sure our orders were correct. I tried the Armenian coffee. It’s heavy and strong so I recommend only for coffee lovers. :D it was an awesome experience for sure.

This is my favors place to eat in town. I’ve been here way more than I’ve remembered to checking in. I was first introduced to this place through my friend and at the time co-​worker from Egypt. He said I would love it and he wasn’t mistaken. I’ve brought friends and family here. Tonight I brought my mom.
Ok so here is the thing service is hit and miss here. Generally I’ve had excellent service except the one time I brought a friend here and the service wasn’t horrible but it wasn’t good.
The ambiance is classy casual if that makes sense. Its nice enough to bring a date here but you don’t have to dress up. There are families here and a lot of the time they have receptions here. So you might want to call before coming out.
I haven’t had anything that I didn’t drool over. My favorites are the hummus with beef. Sooo yummy. Beef kabob and beef Lula plate with rice. OMG this is heaven. The beef kabob is beef medallions cooked perfectly. Beef Lula is seasoned ground beef sooo good. The rice so buttery and a green salad with red wine vinegar olive oil dressing.

I recommend to dine in rather than pick up do to the fact that every time I pick up up the food is overly seasoned especially with salt and it feels like we don’t receive the freshest ingredients. With that said the in house treatment is good and the food is an A+ while dining in.

Ordered the beef and chicken kabob entrée with rice and salad, and hummus and pita bread.
To drink we got water, and the cups were actually dirty a bit disgusting so I got the server to bring us water in other cups. They definitely need to make sure to thoroughly clean the cups. But this doesn’t deter me from giving the place 5 stars because service was great and food was delicious.
First thing we got was the hummus. Absolutely great hummus, you can definitely tell it’s homemade. They serve you a lot too! I took some home to eat with pita chips!
Next came our entrees. The first thing I took a bite of is the beef kabob. Delicious and cooked to the point! The chicken kabob was equally great. The jasmine rice is also to die for!
Definitely coming back to this place! Servings are huge too! You could probably share a dish with two.

Friendly and courteous staff, delicious food, intimate environment, and reasonable prices.
I sometimes order the cheese platter which comes with hers and bread. Add a hot tea, and you have the best breakfast. The plate is big enough for two, and then I ordered the beef kabob, those are the juiciest kabob I ever had. Meat pieces, on the rice and a side of salad on the same plate.
Overall, I’m always satisfied with dining here. Once you done here once, you will come back for sure.

Being that there is a resurgence of food delivery companies to bring me my dinner when I’m too lazy to leave the house I decided to give this place a try. Delivered dish offered the delivery with a $ 6.99 delivery fee and a min of a $ 20 order. To my surprise it is now one of my favorites. I felt the flavor wasn’t too middle eastern in spice and the rice was cooked to perfection. The chicken breast kebab platter is what I chose and it wasn’t a lot of chicken but enough to have left overs. The hummus was enough for a family and then some and they gave me two bags of amazing pita bread to accompany my hummus. I also ordered a medium Greek salad, it was a generous portion but I would suggest the dressing on the side.
I definitely will give this another try and I suggest you do as well. The price, convenience and great tasting food will bring you back for more.

We have dined at this no frills, Mediterranean restaurant in the past and were not surprised to find it bustling on a Friday night. We were quickly seated with menus delivered along and our drink (water) orders taken. My wife said she was going light — ha ha, by ordering a gyro that came with both French fries and a salad. I chose the chicken lula and chicken kabob plate that included a salad, Greek rice and a pita. We both left stuffed to the gills. Inexpensive at retail, an amazing bargain when combined with a discounted
gift certificate.

I absolutely love this place!
it’s absolutely one of my most fav. place to get authentic Armenian food.
The service is exceptional… specially with this amazing Armenian lady name Sophie. Very welcoming and absolutely loving, she’s always very attentive when we are over the restaurant. I always feel like a VIP with her… or maybe I am a VIP! ;) lol j/​k y’all! Totally Love her she makes this place super awesome! Thanx Sophie! XOXO
Let me tell you, the food is done to perfection… Love everything! I’ve had everything, from Lula to lamb to appetizers. Hummus a must, red pepper ajhika, the grape leaves are delicious… so weird I actually liked them because I never ever like the restaurant kind only home made. But hey that tells you a lot about the great flavor they have here cuz I love it!
I still do recommend having a bday party here… but please if you do have a large crowd, do it at the private room located next to the main restaurant. Otherwise it’ll be a total chaos, specially if its a kids bday… I’ve seen it, trust me it’s a NO NO! Lol
Thank you!!!
–I wonder if they’ll have anything special going on for New Years…

The food is delicious! We came here to celebrate my moms birthday. We had a large party so we ordered the meat platter that was around $ 75. We also ordered the salad platter which came with bunch of sides that was about $ 35. For appetizer we ordered these fried egg rolls that were 3 different types. (Meat, cheese, and potato) the meat was my favorite. The ambience kind of reminded me of a banquet hall. There is a stage when you first enter. Overall, great experience will go back!

Best kabob place in vegas!
Amazing quality meat
Salads to die for
Wonderful atmosphere
Super affordable prices
Live piano musician
Wondeful home made soups
I will be a regular that’s for sure!!!

I’m sorry it took so long for me to review this place but I love shish kabob. you can tell that they know what they’re doing and they put love in their product. yes it’s a little pricey but when you find out that everything is organic I think it’s a great price point. I love their combo plates that come with salad and the roasted tomato and roasted jalapeño and saffron rice and it also comes with grilled skewers of goodness. oh and pita bread which I really don’t care for. What I actually love to do is smash the tomato into the saffron rice and mix it all together before eating it… Yummy! my favorites here are the
beef and chicken (this is my favorite I love that it’s filet mignon they use and it’s so tender and juicy. the chicken is awesome too I end ordering an extra order of this chicken it’s flavor is perfect)
lamb chops me and my wife agree that this Lamb here is one of the best we’ve eaten they do a perfect job cooking these chops and I usually don’t eat lamb but it was really good not gamey at all
chicken tululu this wasn’t my favorite thing but it wasn’t bad it just tasted like something I’ve had before.
overall if you’re looking for Mediterranean food and need a great place to eat so you can get over your fears abs try something new and wonderful please do yourself a favor and eat here. we freaking love it.

Experience: My friend and I were looking for somewhere to go for lunch. She suggested this restaurant, because she has been there before, but not me.
Facility: It was more of a restaurant than I expected. I thought it would be more fast food type, but it was bigger than I thought. It has tables and chairs and a stage in the front where they obviously have music events.
Service: I hate to do this, but this place is getting 3 stars because of the service. We walked in and they just kinda looked at us. Then they finally said we could pick any seat. They wait staff were very friendly, but almost rudely inattentive. Why do I say this? It started with our blonde haired waitress (I did not get her name) flirting with guys at the next table for 15 minutes, while we waited her to come back to take our order. Then after the appetizers, she disappeared, so we had to flag down other staff. My friend said she was outside talking to those same guys. At first, I thought she was mistaken, but then I saw her come inside 20 minutes later. Really?!?
The problem with the rest of the staff, is they weren’t walking around checking on the patrons either.
They all stood at the front of the room, a few folding napkins, but most just standing around talking to each other. I posted a pic of the gathering place. Maybe the management will see this.
When they finally come around, they are friendly, but getting them to your table is the trick.
Food: the food is great here… too bad the service sucks.
We ordered the following treats:
Egg rolls — I got 3 different kinds. They were potato (²⁄₅), beef (⁴⁄₅), and cheese (⁵⁄₅). They were crispy, fresh and hot. The cheese were amazing!!!
Beef hummus — very good (⁴⁄₅)
Mixed combo plate — delicious! (⁵⁄₅) it came with chicken, steak, beef lula, lamb chops, salad, buttery rice, grilled veggies, pita bread, and French fries! Everything on the plate was good. My fav meat were the lamb chops and my least favorite is the chicken. But the chicken was still good.
Took most of it home and it will be at least 3 – 4 meals. Well worth the money!
Overall: I will be back. The food was too good to not come back, but I do wish the would teach the 8+ wait staff to check on their tables. It’s so rude to be across the room with empty water glasses and the staff congregating in one corner for social hour. Or completely abandoning your table to go socialize outside. I think I’ll just get take out next time. :P

As far as Kabobs go, this place was pretty rock solid.
Pros:
Awesome portions
Perfectly cooked salmon kabob
Ridiculously good lamb chops (off a rack)
Friendly, attentive service
Clean tables
Cons:
Only one really… didn’t care for the potato and fried pork dish… pretty much cubed hashbrowns with fried pork that tasted really dry (due to frying) and wasn’t too flavorful… perhaps add some extra garlic or something to zing it up… it was even more dry the next day since that was part of the meal I left over to go.
Will come back for sure… overall one of the better kabob places in town.

Ardie and Stephanie’s reviews are correct: the portion sizes here are colossal, and splitting an entrée and an app or salad is the perfect amount of food for two people. Pricing is fantastic, quality is good, service is friendly.
Ordered takeout guided solely by reviews– opted for the #19 with lamb instead of pork chops (they ask), and subbed salad for my rice (my request), with an order of Armenian salad. Salad was full of fresh and perfectly ripe veggies, perfectly flavored, and a great accompaniment to the mix of meats in the plate: two small lamb chops, two pieces of lamb kabob, two pieces of chicken kabob, and a skewer of beef koobideh (ground formed beef), served with roasted tomato and pepper. Tons of food, bill just under $ 25.
Wish I’d seen a menu, they really do need a website. Looking forward to coming again, service from Sophie (even to pick up an order) was great.
