Shahs of Kabob

"This is the third location for the self-proclaimed kings of kabob. It’s a casual Persian restaurant on Ponce that’s perfect for a quick lunch with the office gang. There are high tops for larger parties and a long banquette by the wall if you’re tired of pictures of Natalia’s nephew and want to sit alone. Our favorite thing to order here is the joojeh sultani platter. It comes with one chicken and one beef/lamb skewer, plus a heap of rice and a salad. The salad isn’t too memorable, but the skewers are tender and so big they drape over the edge of the plate. It’s perfect to share between two people. We wouldn’t come to this fast-casual spot for a date or formal dinner, but it’s great for lunch or any easy weeknight meal. " - Virginia Otazo
