Customer Reviews

"We have been stopping here for years when passing through Delaware. It never disappoints. Their food is fresh, not greasy and fills you up for an affordable price. There is space to sit and eat in and a sink to wash hands but no bathroom. Staff is very friendly and the food comes out quickly. The tea they have complementary on the counter is very good!! I can't recommend this place enough. Get off the highway, avoid the overpriced/ gross food at the rest stops and eat something your body will actually appreciate!"

"First at this restaurant I know it's been around for years. I'm not a Gyro fan however one of friends is. He thought the meat tasted processed. It was a patty cooked on a grill which he thought took away from the taste. It wasnt bad. They were very friendly and explained we're to find the condiments. Don't think we will visit again."

- Cynthia M.

"Had the gyros from here a few times and their always on point. The pita is always so fluffy. Maybe gyros don't traditionally come with fries but at this place I'm glad they do because their always the perfect amount of crispy. Even better than the food is the service - always happy (or good at faking it), always attentive, the food comes out fast, and I love to sip their tea while I wait. I haven't branched out from the gyros but maybe next time that I'm back!"

- Lauren M.

"Absolutely loved our stop at Gyro Kebob House! We stumbled upon it right off the highway while driving from NJ to DC, and it turned out to be a gem. The food was incredibly fresh and flavorful--you could tell everything was made with care. The portions were generous, perfect for refueling on a road trip, and the staff was super friendly. Whether you're craving a juicy gyro, perfectly grilled kebobs, or just something quick and satisfying, this place hits the spot. Highly recommend for anyone passing through or even as a destination stop!"

- MARINA R.

"The Kabob House is such a hidden gem! The food is absolutely amazing; it always hits the spot. Perfect for a cozy day in. What really stood out to me was how the employees treat you. They greet you with genuine warmth, like you're a regular even if it's your first time. That kind of kindness makes the whole experience even better. Definitely a place worth returning to again and again!"

- Page L.

"First time ordering online. The food came on time and was great. Tried two platters and they were both delicious. You can tell the vegetables are fresh and the food as well. The amount of food was plenty we barely finished one and kept the other platter for another time. Hopefully will pay them a visit in person and will definitely recommend them."

- Malik A.

"I come here a lot. The food is definitely on point, but I be feeling like they don't wanna take your order sometimes. I come in here and they try to rush you out. When ppl are spending their hard earned money with a business it should be well appreciated honestly. But overall food is good!"
