Kebabji

The real deal! Finally found an authentic, clean, delicious old school kebab shop. So fresh and healthy, very friendly and accommodating for our large order with various special requests.  Will definitely be back for more. You will not be disappointed!

When was the last time you had a kebab (or souvlaki) anywhere in Melbourne where the filling was decent and the traditional pita size was used? I can tell you that it has been a long time for me, as the majority of kebabs sold in this city have fallen behind standard, and prices have inflated far too much (and too quickly) over the past 10 years. Thankfully, we have KEBABJI in Hawthorn to fill the space left by other restaurants-bringing back that warm contented feeling to a grumbly stomach that's aching for juicy lamb goodness. Just look at the photos in the profile. A LARGE lamb or chicken kebab (and I mean the traditional large variety with the large pita bread-not the eency weeny sizes they are dishing out today) will set you back $8.50. The last time I purchased one of these sizes from one of the few famous outlets in the city (and at this price) would have been 20 years ago. I am passionate about my kababs & souvlakia because I grew up on them, and Tom (the owner) has too. Tom and his staff will greet you with all smiles and with mouth-watering suggestions (if you care to ask)-so avail yourself of the expertise behind the counter. I am impressed with the fresh ingredients and offerings on the menu, especially the humble pide breads and the sweets on available.
Whenever I am in Glenferrie, I always drop in for a decent meal and a quick hello to the boys. You should too, and I am absolutely certain, that you will not be disappointed. Thanks for bringing back the good times guys, 4.5/5 from me. P.S. I can feed my partner and myself for $25 here (and I'm a big eater) so I don't believe the average meal price of $35 (for 2) is accurate. Cheers.
