Amazing service and very good food, but the only reason Im giving it 4 stars is due to the lack of seasoning the food a bit. Once they get that perfected its hands down a 5 star spot.

Great food but even better service! Their motto is to treat customers like family, abd they due a dam goid job at that! Make sure you order a side of Dolmas, they’re delicious! So next time you want to try good Persian food… Why Not Kabob? (is the place to go)

Sep 5th, 2022They CLOSED in July for remodeling and still haven’t opened it. Bummer… 😔😔Feb 7th, 2022 Consistently GREAT!I come here every time I’m in Glendale. Really enjoy eating here (or taking to go meals). Always feels welcomed, the food is always cooked from scratch with fresh ingredients and tastes delish. Very AFFORDABLE PRICING. They have the most delicious beef lyulya kabobs (kobideh)Nov-22-2021 ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Dine inMy third time here and definitely not the last one. This place is a hidden gem. It’s small but cozy, there are just 3 or 4 tables inside and a couple outside. Always spotless clean. They are always very friendly, nice and hospitable, attentive to customers’ needs and treat you like your are their best friend.Decent size portions, tasty kabobs, very affordable prices. I had their chicken breast, beef fillet and lamb rib chops kabobs on different occasions. Everything was fresh and delish, especially the beef filet 🤤🤤Kudos to the grill master, managers/owners and rest of the team.

I drive all the way from East LA for these kabobs! I call it in ahead of time and pick up my order within 30 mins. The staff/owners are amazing! They make me very feel welcomed! Now… regarding the food… wow! 5 stars! Fresh and made to order. It does take time to cook and get your order and thats why I call it in. BUT… perfection takes time and this is what it is… PERFECTION! OH! And prices are more than fair!

Wondering how I didnt know about this place all these years. Saw it in instagram and today I ordered kabab to take out. The smell and the taste, the softness of the beef and chicken shish and the kubideh, and the proper amount of the marinade, all was so nostalgic, a true persian style kabob. The chef is a long time persian Restaurant owner. The place for dine-in is not luxury, its also old fashion Tehran bazar style, a real food place, not fool.

Absolutely disgusting. Not just not good but actively tastes bad. I dont know what they did to the meat, but if you told me it soaked in dishwater, I would not have been surprised.

Absolutely amazing! Everything tasted great! I had some guests coming over who had never had Mediterranean food, so I wanted to make sure they had a good first impression. Im very happy I chose Why Not Kabob. I got two platters of take out and everyone loved it!It was my first time coming here. Emin took the time to ask and listen to what I needed. He valued my needs and what I was looking for. He then helped me take all my items to my car. At a time where many businesses are using COVID as an excuse to compromise service, Why Not Kabob really went above and beyond. To top it off, I saw several guests come and thank Emin for supporting his community through Why Not Kabob. This place is truly my go to now. And they cook right in front of you.It is a family ran place and they cook their food with passion and ensure you get great quality food. With all that positivity, you dont have to worry about breaking the bank either. They are reasonably priced.

While I was getting my car fixed, i decided to check this place out based on other google reviews. Upon entering I was welcomed by friendly staff members/cook. Im an outsider to the city, but they treated me as if I had been going there for years, which felt extra special. Indoor dining is not big, but still nice, in my humble opinion. I tried the beef fillet as recommended by the chef. Although the wait takes a bit more time than usual, its definitely worth the wait! The beef was the right kind of tender to me. And the way it was presented was well done! Better than the menu photos. I highly recommend this place!

Not good quality of meat. Meat selection is not the best, for example chicken kabab was not made of chicken breast, was leg meat I guess. Beef kabab was terrible. If you want to try something good you don’t go to this place. They are gentle and kind of good located but sorry, the food doesn’t worth what you pay for. You guys have to improve more. Anyways, good luck.

This little gem has always had excellent service. They even take time to let you know what other items you can choose to get if you like one thing a bit more.I remember going here last year for the 1st time and thought their food was delicious.I ended up ordering a comboChicken, Beef Luleh, and SkewersThey serve a side salad and some pickled onions which pair well with the food!I also ordered a side of hummus and Tzatziki on the side!This restaurant has affordable prices and 2, if not 3 people can be fed with this platter!!!

1st time here. Lots of my homies said this place has good food. Came home with my order excited to eat plus we where very hungry. Sliced the lule kabob and noticed the meat still red inside and very soft like needed to be more cooked. 1st time and last time there. Will never go back.

in Glendale where there are many Armenian kabob places to choose from this one just stuck out on the strip from its sensible advertising and its name. why not kebab? truly why not? And I was in the mood so I tried it and they delivered. its a hole in the wall kind of place not known for its atmosphere but a perfunctory serving of tasty kabob, or Lula with sides Armenian style for a decent price

Why not Kabob was an awesome experience! This restaurant is clean, well decorated, and very inviting. The owner, Emin, was super friendly and made my food himself. I ordered the beef luleh which came with rice, onions, salad, grilled tomato and chilli pepper. Everything on the plate tasted perfect; all for a reasonable price. Hell Id even pay more for it. Thanks why not kabob and Emin!

Came with a group of 9 after just googling a local spot to eat and they were very accommodating as this place is relatively small. They put two tables together for us. Very friendly, kind and customer oriented. The food is great and flavorful. Would totally come here again and recommend it to others!

If it comes to the quality and freshness of the ingredients, I dare to say that Why not Kabob is the best in the nation! Whatever you get are all home quality foods, healthy and you can feel it once you had your meal! They are really warm welcoming and anytime we go there we are overwhelmed of hospitality and kindness. We also get my wifes birthday party meal from them and everyone just devoured the food and enjoyed that. Generally speaking, very nice and clean, healthy, fresh, tasty and generous!Its a must and highly recommended!
