" If you crave good Mediterranean food, Real Kabob is the place to go! The meals are flavorful and generous. I particularly loved their eggplant dip served with pita – it was heavenly! The owner was very welcoming and made sure I was content with my meal. Just be prepared to eat outside, as indoor seating is limited. However, the vibe outside was quite nice and an enjoyable experience overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" I found Real Kabob through a friend's recommendation and now I can't stop talking about it! The lamb kabob was so tender and flavorful, and paired beautifully with the saffron rice. Their special sauce is a must-try, adding an extra kick to the meals. It's a small place with mostly outdoor seating, which might not appeal to everyone, but it makes for a cozy atmosphere. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Persian food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Real Kabob was a delightful experience. I tried their Zershk Polo with chicken, and the flavors were remarkable. The rice was fluffy and perfectly complemented the sweet and tangy flavor of the zereshk. The outdoor seating provides a casual vibe that's great for a quick meal. The only complaint I had was that the service was a bit on the slower side during my visit, but the quality of the food made it worth the wait. Will definitely be coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had my doubts before trying Real Kabob because of its unassuming location, but wow, I was pleasantly surprised! The kabobs were incredibly juicy, and the flavors brought me right back to my trips to Persia! The outdoor seating is a cute feature, though prepare for the weather. Overall, this is a must-try for kabob lovers. " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first time trying kabobs, and I am now a huge fan thanks to Real Kabob! The grilled chicken kabob was well-marinated and bursting with flavor. The staff was very friendly and accommodating during my visit. The ambiance might be simple, but it adds to the charm. I can't wait to revisit and explore their other dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" Exquisite flavors and delightful service! The kabobs are to die for, particularly the mix grill platter. It’s even better when shared, as the portions are significant. This has quickly become my go-to spot for Mediterranean cuisine. A small tip: arrive early as it gets busy, and outdoor seating might fill up fast. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes for this place based on the reviews, but my experience was a bit underwhelming. The kabobs I ordered were good but didn't wow me. I expected a bit more flavor, especially given how they were hyped up in the reviews. The service was friendly, but I found the outdoor seating a bit cramped. I'll probably give it another shot, as many people rave about it! " (*Curated Review*)
