Skewers Mediterranean Grill — Restaurant in Glendale

I'll start out by saying that I have a decent amount of experience in the restaurant industry, in the PNW. And, there... we're known for really great food, from all over the world. Having said that... take this review with a grain, of salt... Not everyone's palate is the same.

This place is family owned, and on the day I was there, run by the son, and the nephew of the owner. They were great with helping me order the best stuff on the menu. And, none of it disappointed.

The stand-outs were as follows...

Chicken/Beef Shwarma. Both were amazing. The Kabob........ Amazing. (Made to order) The Falafel........ Amazing. Crispy outside,, and soft inside. Honestly perfect. Hummus was top notch. The Tabouli, which I'm not a fan of usually, was really good. Heavy on the acid side of things, and packed with fresh herb, it was really good. I liked the more sour take on the Tabouli.

So, overall this little hole in the wall restaurant, delivers a lot of value for the dollar. They were helpful, knowledgeable, and accurate with their recommendations.

Looking forward to my next trip to AZ. Gonna stop in, for sure. I highly recommend you support this, family owned, small business.

Thanks for the...

First time here, try the combination plate with chicken and beef. Meat for both chicken and beef are cooked just right. They gave an abundance of rice and a big salad. I’ll definitely be back

Second time: Got the Gyros sandwich n salad.. The gyros meat was over cooked n crunchy… the meat must’ve been spinning around on the cooker for awhile… ate half threw the rest away… I was too tired to complain about it, and just left .

Third time: I’m still not liking the Gyros meat, still kinda dry. Maybe I like it undercooked or something I don’t know. I wanna like this place I really do. I’ve been trying to find a good Mediterranean restaurant. I find their Greek salads they serve with the combos very bland in flavor. It misses the mark when it comes to the unique vinegar punch, that Greek salads are well known for.

They offer no Gyros pita sandwich in a combo with salad. Which pretty all other Mediterranean restaurants do. To add a side salad will cost you $4.99 Costing your than the...

Fantastic place! I feel blessed to have taken the chance on a new place! I tried the mixed shawarma plate, it came with a garlic sauce that was to die for. My father-in-law wasn’t sure about the difference between a kebab and the shawarma. Instead of playing at guesswork, we asked the person working and got an impressive explanation. Most dishes are served over rice and alongside veggies, I just prefer double rice, personally. They’ve got salt and pepper packets, very handy, the food wasn’t under-seasoned, just lightly so, for tamer palates. Just a little bit of salt here, some paper there, set the dish off perfectly. A lot of thought and pride went into and goes into this place. It wasn’t until we had come out that I realized we were across the street from my favorite local skatepark! Fantastic restaurant, great location,...
