Shish Kebab Mediterranean Grill

A classy restaurant. Great atmosphere and delicious traditional food.

I met the Chef (Mike) in the grocery store, he had a shopping cart full of milk and I knew it had to be for yogurt so I asked. Sure enough he makes his own yogurt, told me about the restaurant. Anyplace that makes their own yogurt, well we just had to try it. So I took my husband for his birthday. It was a Monday night so things were quiet, the service was perfect, the waiter dignified, helpful and friendly. We should have made a dinner of all the fabulous appetizers. The food was fresh and flavors were fabulous. Be sure to try the Turkish wine, it was excellent and aromatic, not your standard glass of red. We ended the meal with Baklava and Turkish coffee, then the waiter read my coffee grounds... how cool is that.

Outside patio is surrounded by beautiful flower pots, music is fun and the perfect volume for conversation without even raising one's voice. The food is amazing cooked to perfection with excellent flavoring. Service is excellent. Kept water glasses filled.

Shish Kebab offers some excellent Turkish cuisine! I went with a large group and we all enjoyed our meals, though we felt the service was at times not as responsive (though always friendly). They start off with some delicious bread and a sweet red pepper dipping sauce. I ordered the Adana Kebab with yogurt. The meat was so juicy and flavorful, and it mixed perfectly with the garlicky yogurt, crisp bread, and peppers. The portions are huge, so plan on boxing your leftovers but don't make my mistake and forget the box!

LOVE this place. Sample platter is a must. I've never ordered anything I didn't like, but my to go dish is the vegetable Iskander and it is out of this world! Absolutely scrumptious. The only downside is that the service is slooooow. But that's never stopped me. It's completely worth the wait.
