Imagine a place where every dish is a love letter to Mediterranean cooking, crafted with recipes passed down through generations. Welcome to Kabob House, Temecula’s premier destination for mouth-watering kabobs, vibrant flavors, and a dining experience that feels like coming home.
Mediterranean Meets Middle America
Kabob House isn’t just another restaurant; it’s a love letter to Mediterranean cuisine. The owners have taken recipes passed down through generations and turned them into a menu that feels both timeless and fresh. From tender lamb skewers to crispy falafel, every dish is crafted with care using ingredients sourced from local farmers’ markets. This isn’t fast food—it’s food made with passion, precision, and a pinch of nostalgia.
Chef John, the culinary mastermind behind the menu, has over 30 years of experience perfecting the art of Mediterranean cooking. His attention to detail and knack for balancing flavors make every bite feel like an edible masterpiece. And then there’s Chadi, the restaurant’s manager, whose warm smile and dedication to service will make you feel like you’ve been invited into someone’s home for dinner.
What’s on the Menu? Everything Delicious.
The menu at Kabob House is packed with options that cater to every kind of eater—whether you’re a meat lover, vegetarian, or just someone who appreciates good food. Here are some highlights:
Appetizers That Steal the Show
- Hummus: Creamy, dreamy, and perfect for scooping with warm pita bread.
- Baba Ganoush: A smoky eggplant dip that might just convert even the most dedicated eggplant skeptics.
- Falafel: Golden-brown on the outside, fluffy on the inside—these little chickpea wonders are a must-try.
- Cheese Boreg: Imagine crispy dough stuffed with feta and mozzarella cheese. Now stop imagining and order it.
Kabobs That Mean Business
Kabobs are the star of the show here, and for good reason. Each skewer is marinated to perfection and grilled until it’s just right. Options include:
- Chicken Kabob ($20): Juicy chicken served with garlic sauce and your choice of two sides (pro tip: go for the rice and hummus).
- Beef Kabob ($23): Tender sirloin skewers paired with tzatziki yogurt.
- Lamb Kabob ($24): A pricier option but worth every penny for its melt-in-your-mouth texture.
Plates That Satisfy
For those who can’t decide (or just want more food), the plates offer generous portions:
- Gyros Plate ($20): A mix of lamb and beef served with pita bread and sides.
- Chicken Shawarma Plate ($20): Thinly sliced chicken marinated in garlic and spices.
- Appetizer Sampler Plate ($22): Perfect for sharing—or not. Includes hummus, baba ganoush, grape leaves, falafel, and tabouleh.
Sandwiches for On-the-Go Feasting
If you’re looking for something handheld, their sandwiches are equally satisfying:
- Gyros Sandwich ($12): Add $4 to make it a combo with fries or salad.
- Falafel Sandwich ($11): A vegetarian delight wrapped in pita bread.
- Philly Cheesesteak ($14): Not Mediterranean, but still delicious.
Don’t Forget Dessert
While the menu doesn’t list desserts explicitly, ask your server what’s available—you might just indulge in something sweet to round out your meal.

The restaurant prides itself on being a gathering place for the community—a spot where friends and family can come together over plates of deliciousness.
