Dallas Kabob House — Restaurant in Plano

My second review of Dallas Kabob House. This time around I had arranged for off menu items. The owner, Syed Quettawaala, needs a couple of days’ notice to prepare non-standard cuisine.

-- Pirzola (Turkish style lamb chops) – it has been 6 long years since I last had lamb chops to die for good - Chef Yusuf at Bereket Turkish (Bridgeport CT, 2014). Today’s experience was at par with that. In fact, in terms of the quality (the butcher gets credit too) can’t imagine it being any better. For context, I’ve extensively traveled both domestic and international and do not recall tasting a superior version (grilled or otherwise). The meat was only treated with fresh lemon juice and non-invasive add-ons (salt, rosemary, thyme etc).

-- Other Turkish Cuisine – mainly Iskender kebap and Ali Nazik. I’d rate this quite high but frankly the lamb chops stole the show. The Iskender kebap was made with fresh garlic yogurt and gyro with just the right amount of sauce. The baba ghanoush in the Alinazik was freshly prepared and once again topped with high quality lamb.

-- Lamb Shinwari – the standard item on the menu is the goat version and contains higher volume of curry than your traditional versions. My order i.e. the Traditional shinwari – was made with lamb, fresh tomatoes and green peppers that yields a reduced yet richer gravy. Overall, the experience reminded me of traditional shinwari made in Khyber and whereabouts.

-- Kabuli Palao – once again was exceptional and done the right way i.e. palao made with the lamb shank hence the rice retaining the bone / meat juices.

Needless to say, I will be a repeat customer. Too bad this place is a serious drive otherwise I’d visit multiple times a week. I will arrange for a Persian cuisine experience during my next visit (again, non-standard...

This place deserves 0 stars for treating their staff like slaves. The lady owner needs to fix her behavior with her customers and staff both. I was there last Saturday around lunch time with my friends and order multiple items. We asked the server to add an additional item 10 minutes after placing our initial order which I'm sure most people do every time they go out to eat. This is not the first time I came to your restaurant or any restaurant. We got all our food but didn't get that 1 item even after we finished our food and after sitting there for almost 20 mins. I asked the server if that 1 item can be canceled and since we were already done eating and she politely said YES she will serve it to another table that was there. I really didn't mind paying for it but since we were done eating and it took them more.then 30 mins to prepare it I didn't want it to go to waste if possible. Well the owner lady completely lost it and started yelling at the poor girl who served us and sounded like she really needed that extra $15 to run her restaurant. I instantly asked the server to please add that item in my bill as well so that she won't get the hell for it from that crazy owner!

I apologized to the server for her owners behavior and told them that they have lost a regular customer from now on just because of their owners horrible behavior. I can never see anyone disrespecting their staff or anyone like this infront of me and I'll make sure none of my family members and friends ever visit this place and I...

I have always enjoyed the food from this restaurant, we place large orders for pick up at all family events. Tonight we actually went to sit down in the restaurant for once with just immediately family. I have never been so disappointed in a business our family has been supporting for so long. The service was awful server was very rude. When asking as we placed our order how long they thought it would be, seeing as we already waited 40 minutes just for them to come take our order. The young man advised us 20 to 30 minutes at the most. Another 40 minutes go by. No one asked if we needed anything, sorry for the delay we are very busy, it's going to take longer than we thought nothing. So we then stopped the server to ask her what's going on, we have been here an hour and 30 minutes And still don't even have drinks. Her reply in the rudest tone was " well everyone is waiting as you can clearly see. Best advice for this place, when you have great food but terrible service from your staff being hateful ( as you can see from all reviews ) get better staff ( female with glasses ) to serve your customers. The gentleman that my family normally deal with during the day time, when we pick up for large family events are always very nice and helpful. Due the business a favor, get ride of rude...
