The Kebab Shop

First time eating there
Definitely coming back
Great staff , great atmosphere, great food .

For supporting Ukrian and peace, I decided to have a lunch at Ukrainian restaurant. I found The Kebab Shop by searching Ukrainian restaurant near La Jolla. Actually, it is a Mediterranean one instead of Ukrainian. Anyway, I am still against Russia's invasion.
First of all, thumb up for the garlic yogurt and cilantro dipping which at the self-service table. Especially the cilantro one, not to strong smell but good taste.
For the food, I ordered a box with extra beef. The portion was too small, I couldn't believe this box had already added extra and cost almost $18. The salad was good, especially with the cucumber was a good idea. The fries were also good, crispy, and not too hard.
But the beef was horrible, it was thin and the texture made you think it's fake meat. The beef was too salt and too oily. Now I understand why the portion was that small, otherwise, it will be too salty to eat.
The set was too small and I had to buy another one from the Padadak next door to feed myself.
It's not worth to visit again.

I have been to this location at least 20 times and downtown about 4 times. I have never had any problems, or gotten the wrong order. 90% of the time my order is ready in 5-7 minutes maybe 1 or 2 times 10 minutes. Always good, always great service and friendly employees. One of my favorite new restaurants. Fresh and healthy.

Brandon and his co workers have always gone above and beyond in customer service and preparing the food. The place is always clean and even when its busy they still acknowlege you and make you feel welcome. Shout out the la jolla team they deserve a raise and all that good stuff
