Kababchi Grill Story

The word “Kababchi” means Grill Master, and grilling has been part of our family’s tradition for four generations. Our recipes are inspired by the flavors of Baghdad, Iraq, with Mediterranean influences that create a unique and unforgettable dining experience.

Every day, we prepare fresh food using quality ingredients and traditional cooking methods. Our signature dishes are grilled over charcoal to give them the rich, smoky flavor that sets us apart.

What made our visit even more special was their thoughtful gesture when they learned it was my son’s birthday. They kindly offered complimentary dondurma ice cream, which was such a sweet surprise and made his day even more memorable.

The service was top-notch throughout—friendly, attentive, and welcoming. On top of that, the overall experience was great value for money. Highly recommended, and we’ll definitely be coming back!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Oh my goodness, goodness, GOODNESS!  I LOVE THIS PLACE!  We came to town for an event for 3 days and ate here 5 times - that's saying something!  The hummus is so tasty and smooth - I can't get enough and I'm not actually a hummus fan - I can say I would eat this every day.  The flatbread is freshmade when brought to the table and so tasty!  It's perfect for the hummus.  The gyro meat is spiced perfectly and delicious!  The chicken tikka has so much flavor and is still so tender!  My favorite, however, is the beef tikka - that was hands down the most flavorful steak I've ever eaten.  My husband tried a piece (he doesn't typically eat red meat) and was so jealous - I had to fight him away from another piece! On our last day in town we went to have dessert because that was the only thing we hadn't yet tried.  I had a pot of black tea milk tea and an order of basbousa.  This combo was amazing!  The tea was so flavorful and delicious and when combined with the sweetness of the basbousa made a perfect desert combination.  There were no disappointments here.  The atmosphere is very charming and they are very clean making sure to stay on top of messes and regular cleaning always and we loved getting to watch the world cup while eating.  Service is impecciable and each employee we encountered was charming, helpful and we honestly couldn't have felt more welcome.  I doubt I'll ever be back in San Antonio, but if I am, I will definitely be visiting again.  I couldn't recommend this place more!  Oh - one last thing - they stay open late!  Being we were from the west coast, the change in time was easily accommodated for us due to this and if the restaurant isn't seating anymore, you can go to the other side and get the same food there.  We did this once and it was just as wonderful!  Thank you all!
