We came to Shiraz Shish Kebab because of the strong Google rating and number of reviews, expecting rich and flavorful Persian/Middle Eastern food. Unfortunately, the experience did not live up to the hype. We ordered beef, lamb, and chicken kebabs with rice. The plates were heavily loaded with rice, but the portion of protein felt small for the price. The vegetables were borderline burnt, and the meal overall lacked depth and flavor. There were no sauces provided, which made everything taste dry and one-dimensional. Having had excellent Middle Eastern food before, this was noticeably underwhelming. Service also left something to be desired. The staff, particularly at the front, did not seem welcoming or engaged. For what we paid, there are better options in town. The high rating is surprising given the food quality and overall experience. Unfortunately, we won’t be returning.

Locally owned kebab joint that is out of this world good. I have been visiting this place for years and its one of my favorites. This is good wholesome Mediterranean food, its all made from scratch. The meats used are of high quality. The food never fails to be fresh. The location is always immaculately clean. The atmosphere is very nice & peaceful inside. The owners are friendly people that obviously care about the service they provide. The naan bread is AMAZING, best ever. But my favorite menu item by far is the Baba Gannouj. A smoky roasted eggplant type of dip that elevates the meal to a whole 'notha level 🤤. You MUST try the Baba Gannouj if you go here. Dont miss out on this place, its an absolute treasure.
