Reviews of Kabob City
from GoogleI discovered Kabob City some time ago when I lived closer to the area, and it quickly became one of my go-to places for food. Even though I no longer live nearby, whenever I’m in the area, I still make a point of stopping here. The portions are VERY generous, especially the chicken and beef, but what keeps me coming back is the taste. I usually have the seasoned rice rather than the plain rice, with chicken and beef, and I really enjoy the combination. The food is consistently tasty, filling and reasonably priced for the amount you get. On my most recent visit, I actually ordered extra chicken, beef, salad and bread separately because I wanted to take some home for another meal,so if you see the separate items in my photos, that was my request and not how the regular meal is normally served. 😊 Customer service has always been excellent. The staff are friendly and welcoming, the restaurant is clean, and the atmosphere is really nice. It’s also easy to find and conveniently located. They have a Tuesday special as well, which is worth checking out. If you enjoy kabob, shawarma or donair, I definitely recommend giving Kabob City a try. Generous portions, good value, tasty food and great service. I’ve been coming here for quite some time, and the consistency is what keeps bringing me back.
Forewarning, I think this place is very busy on Tuesdays because they offer 25% off large platters. My husband and I came here because we wanted to try a new place. Upon arriving one of the employees did acknowledge us and asked for a couple of minutes. They were clearly catching up on a ton of delivery orders. It probably took about 10 minutes till we could order and since we were sitting in we just told him what we wanted and sat down. Then once the meat was ready we went up to pick our sauces. The employees were all very nice there was probably room for 20 people to sit in total. Food was nice, portion was okay, there was a lot of rice and then the amount of chicken and beef you would expect. The sauce was a little on the shy side. Overall it was a nice place to eat, again I would just expect to wait a while to order and to get your food. I will give five stars for service though because some of the men ordering take away food we're trying to barter better deals and some of the delivery drivers were complaining about the wait, but the employees always had a smile on their face and responded very nicely. I can't say I would have been so nice.
I recently went to Kabob City with my mom and sister, and honestly… it was SUCH a good experience. My mom and sister had already been there before and loved it, so they convinced me to come this time and I’m so glad they did. Not gonna lie, I hadn’t eaten anything all day and I was literally starving 😵 I felt like I could pass out, but the food made everything worth it. We tried the chicken tikka with qabuli rice and chicken kofta with qabuli rice. The chicken tikka was an absolute HIT juicy, flavor full, and perfectly cooked. I would 100% go back just for that. The chicken kofta was also really good, but a bit too spicy for my taste 😭 I thought I could handle it, but clearly not lol. Still, the flavor was amazing. Also, shoutout to the guy who made our food. I didn’t catch his name, but he was so sweet and kind, and you can tell he really knows what he’s doing. Overall, such a satisfying meal and a great recommendation from my family. Definitely going back again!
We ordered the family platter for 4-5 people and chose the beef and chicken skewers option with Qabuli Pulao option for rice. Everything came out fresh and was delicious, we finished everything and still made room for Firni. The chicken qorma was great (maybe lacking some salt but that’s a personal opinion) I would definitely recommend and we will be coming back again.
Everything was fresh and it was delicious. Wait time was around 15 mins but it's definitely worth it. Probably the tastiest meal I had during my Banff trip. Staff was also very friendly!
The food was delicious the service was very good and the atmosphere is also good
Love their food and service ❤️

About Kabob City
Off Metis Trail on Cityscape Drive NE, this halal Afghan kebab house serves skewers, shawarma and rice platters from a long menu.
The Malai Chicken Wrap and the Beef Kofta are the most-ordered dishes. The family platter feeds four or five: pick your skewers, then choose Qabuli Pulao for the rice. The chicken qorma is well liked, and there is firni to finish. With so many choices, the staff at the counter will walk you through the menu.
What diners say
Diners praise the portions and the value, and say the food tastes fresh even on a busy night. The beef kofta is a favourite with diners, and the chicken qorma is well liked. Large dine-in platters are sometimes discounted, so ask about the current deal when you order.
Before you go
The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, so it is a good place to try a platter. If you are eating in, order at the counter, sit down, and pick up your sauces once the meat is ready. The staff stay friendly even when it is busy. The chicken kofta can be spicy, so ask if you are sensitive to heat.
