Ararat Kebab & Gyros

Ararat Kebab & Gyros - Review - Tenderloin - San Francisco - The Infatuation

Turn your sights to Ararat Kebab & Gyros for the best Turkish-style kebabs in the city. This small Tenderloin restaurant serves take-out gyro wraps under bright fluorescent lights. The combo shish kebab plate is the way to go, with a hearty mix of charred lamb and juicy chicken shish kebab, kofte that’s got enough garlic, cumin, and mint to make you quiver, a tingling hot sauce, and a few slices of gyro for good measure. And sure, eating in feels like hanging out at the dentist’s office, but it’s totally worth it for the free, strong Turkish tea that ties the whole meal together. photo credit: Melissa Zink photo credit: Melissa Zink - Ricky Rodriguez
