General Info

Baba Kabob Poway brings Afghan and Mediterranean flavors together in a casual setting at 13538 Poway Rd in Poway, California. Kabobs are the main attraction here, making this restaurant an appealing choice when you want grilled meats, satisfying sides, and bold flavors without turning dinner into an overly formal affair. The menu feels approachable, portions are generous, and the pricing offers solid value for the amount of food served.

Chicken kabobs are among the standout choices. The meat is grilled until lightly charred on the outside while staying tender and juicy inside, giving each bite a pleasant smoky flavor. Kofta kebabs are another favorite, especially for diners who prefer seasoned ground meat with a richer, more savory profile. These grilled specialties work particularly well with rice, fresh accompaniments, and the restaurant's popular green sauce. That sauce adds a bright, punchy kick and can quickly become the part of the meal you keep reaching for.

Beyond the kabobs, potato bolani deserves attention. This Afghan flatbread offers a comforting contrast to the grilled dishes, with a crisp exterior and flavorful potato filling. It works nicely as a starter for the table or as an extra side when a standard kabob plate does not seem quite enough. With substantial servings across the menu, sharing a few different dishes can also be a good way to explore more flavors.

Value is another reason Baba Kabob Poway stands out. The combination of reasonable prices and hearty portions makes it suitable for a quick lunch, relaxed dinner, or meal with family and friends. You can order something straightforward without sacrificing freshness or flavor, while the broader Afghan and Mediterranean influences keep the menu interesting.

Service adds to the welcoming experience. Guests frequently describe the staff as kind and friendly, with attentive service that suits the restaurant's laid-back atmosphere. Between the juicy chicken kabobs, savory kofta, crisp potato bolani, generous plates, and addictive green sauce, there is plenty here for anyone craving comforting grilled food with Afghan and Mediterranean character.

“ Best kebab place in San Diego hands down. Believe me, I’ve tried most of them including “highly recommended” by various ppl, all garbage. Having lived somewhere in very affluent part of London UK most of my life where some of the best kebab places in the world were (just based on the fact they had to be because of the high density of the expats from that cultural diaspora with very demanding standards), I got very spoilt. This place matches, if you order the main rice combos and know how to order a couple of extras not up front on the menu. I get the feeling they will need to expand very soon to much bigger location if word gets out! ”

“ During lunch break, stopped at Harbor Freights. After finishing my business I was hungry for some chow. Looked around, and although plenty eats here, I decided on Baba Kabob shop. Small shop, great for food to go, or you must dine outside. No indoor dining. I also notice that this is a catering business. I decided on the Baba Kabob special..chicken, Kabob meat, French fries and the vegetable fixins...tomatoes, lettuce, and onions. Had I known the French fries were inside, I would have asked for them on the side, or none at all. Do not like soggy fries... The portion was huge, although it seemed light on the meat, in my opinion. Still good, and too much food for one person..at less than half, and gave rest to a coworker. I would pick up food again..I ordered a diet coke bottle, but they forgot to give to me, and when I remembered, I was back at work..bummer city. ”
