The chicken & lamb kebabs, were very nice and juicy. The falafel were moist and not dry. The server and cook were very nice and friendly to us. Their hot tea has great flavors to it steeped in different herbs such as cardamom. A nice find on our driving through the town, what a nice surprise!

We tried this place while traveling through Charleston based on the reviews. It was very good. Clean and the staff were all friendly. The chicken shawarma was delicious. The hummus was tasty and fresh. The rice was also fresh and had a hint of lemon flavor. Very nice, we will make this a regular stop when traveling in the area.

Food is good, tastes homemade. Be careful reheating at work, the beef is very.. fragrant. They restraunt smells heavily of what they’re cooking, so be prepared to smell like fried foods when you leave.

This place is amazing! My husband and I are originally from dearborn Michigan a very heavy Arabic community. Since we have moved around it was always impossible to find good authentic Arabic food. We came across this place and my goodness it taste like home. We absolutely LOVE the food and the people here. You guys are amazing we will be seeing you again soon!

Had King Kabab for the first time ever while visiting with family. I can easily say that this was the best food I have had from a restaurant in at least a year! The quality of meat was phenomenal and the service I received from the girl at the counter was awesome! One other thing that really shocked me was that I ordered my steak medium well and that’s exactly what I got! I love this restaurant and definitely recommend it to try!

King Kabob is an absolute gem! The food is always fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. The kabobs are tender and juicy, the rice is fragrant, and the hummus is some of the best I’ve had. You can tell they use high-quality ingredients and put a lot of care into their dishes. The portions are generous, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality of food you get. Beyond the food, the service is outstanding—friendly, welcoming, and fast. Whether you’re dining in or taking out, the experience is always top-notch. If you’re craving delicious Mediterranean food in WV, this is the place to go. Highly recommend!

My husband and I have eaten here multiple times. The food and service are always great. We had falafel, hummus, chicken schwarma on rice spicy, tabbouleh salad and lamb schwarma wrap. Delicious!
