The food is Always amazing. It's never just really good. The Coral Gables location is the only one I've eaten at in the restaurant but have ordered from two other locations and you always know it'll be excellent. The meat is perfect, the rice is always just right and few things compare to the way the pita bread gets gummy after it's used as the bed for the skewers. The sauces are always consistent, creamy and tasty (Miami Heat is such a cool invention, it's legitimately hot but bc of the cream base it's super easy to eat ). Then there's the deserts (at least in Coral Gables). Dinner portions are already quite large and the deserts are the same way. It's such a unique place and it never disappoints. The only thing I think they could do better is the online ordering system, it's frustrating. I had to keep authenticating, tried to save my address and everything reset and it was delivered through Uber Eats even though it didn't seem to show up in the Uber Eats app. But that's a technology issue and even with it being a hassle , the food is so good, it's very easy to overlook. Few places are this good and this consistent.

We have dined at Shahs of Kebob before and are familiar with how the food is supposed to taste and be prepared. Unfortunately, today’s pickup order was extremely disappointing. We ordered 3 koobideh, 2 chicken, and 2 soltani kabobs, and every item was undercooked. The kabobs were red inside while burned on the outside, and the rice was very hard. This isn’t a matter of flavor—it’s a serious food safety issue. Being served raw ground beef and lamb is unacceptable, especially at this price point. I spent $240 on this order, and the quality was far below expectations. Serving flour tortillas with yogurt instead of pita is incorrect for Persian cuisine. As someone familiar with Persian food, this experience was very disappointing. I will be disputing $176 of the $241 charged, as that amount reflects the cost of the inedible food; the remaining balance covers the doogh and yoghurt purchased.

Their Kobeideh Kabab is super tasty and very juicy. The service is quick and prices are reasonable. I would come here again if I am in town and in the mood for a proper meal.

I’m obsessed with this place! Shahs of Kabab is easily one of my favorite restaurants in Gables. My go-to spot. I come at least once or twice a week, sometimes for lunch, sometimes for dinner, and it never disappoints. The food is always fresh and flavorful, the portions are perfect, and the team is so welcoming. If you haven’t tried it yet, you’re seriously missing out

This place does not serve good kabob. Neither does it make ‘Persian food’.
We ordered the family platter, the flatbread served was basically grocery store tortilla, the salad looks and tastes like pico de gallo without the refreshing taste.
Koobideh didn’t taste good, we hate to waste food but we can’t force ourselves to eat it.
The only thing we could eat was the rice, usually it’s served with butter and sumac on the side but not here. I asked for butter and was given this yellow-ish water powder mixture. I put it on the rice. It didn’t taste like butter at all. Pretty sure it’s butter flavoring. So now we can’t even eat the rest of the rice.
We left the restaurant still hungry, it’s not worth 4.5 stars and certainly not Persian food.
It is certainly cheap, but I would rather eat McD or even just skip dinner.

Disappointing meal. Order arrived with zero sauces and salad dressing even though the sauces were specified in my order. The manager did not empathize with our disappointment and did not apologize. He said "I'm not saying you guys are lying, but my worker said he put the sauces in". We have a 2 month old baby which is why we are ordering delivery in the first place and certainly don't have time to lie about missing sauces. Very rude to insituate we'd lie. What terrible customer service and terrible customer experience. The food was okay but dry without the sauces, which are the best part of Shahs of Kabob. Salad was not much of a salad without dressing. This is our first time ordering from the Coral Gables location. We've typically ordered from the South Miami location no issues and they are also have real customer service at the South Miami location. Do better.

I’ve ordered from multiple locations plenty of times. I always get the chicken platter with salad and rice and I always ask for it to be well done. Today I ordered from the Coral Gables location. It took like 30 mins longer than usual, when I finally received it the food was cold. But more importantly, the chicken smelled spoiled and this is how it looks:
I asked other people in my office if it smelled bad to them and they confirmed it smelled spoiled. It threw it out but still ate some of the chicken that looked well cooked before. Praying I don’t get sick. Out of an abundance of caution I will not be ordering from this business again.

Shahs is by far my favorite lunch spot in the Gables. The food and service is amazing. When you go, ask for Sleyter. He brings great energy and recommends a new thing to try every time I go. And don’t forgot the sweets from sweet manifesto on your way out…

My family and I went to the Coral Gables location of the Shah of Kebob for Mother's Day and it was beautiful. The background music was a little loud but the overall ambience and decor is beautiful. A really nice semi formal dining experience. They were running a little short on staff but the staff there was working hard and trying to keep up with the orders the best they should.
The food was excellent, as usual. They never disappoint with the consistent quality of their food. The desert options were also great. Our family favorite was Baklava cheesecake, loved the way it was prepared. I've tried it at other places and they use rose water in the cake and it really overpowers the taste, this one was just right.

I just had this food on Sunday with my best friend! It was fireeeee! The staff was knowledgeable and kind, the place was clean, and the food and experience was awesome. As the wall art said, “I came full, and left happy” haha
My bestie had the koobideh large plate and I had the shrimp large plate and both were so good. My shrimp was seasoned so well and grilled to perfection. Shoutout to my guy at the register who works front and back, he did his big one on the food and customer service.
We finished the meal off with a slice of the baklava cheesecake. Whew, lemme tell you that sh*t was next level. The portion was def a big back slice and the flavor and texture did not disappoint. I will def be coming back for the shrimps and to try some more of the desserts.
If you are in the gables or not, def check them out. They are worth the trip!
P.S. I’m not gonna take one star from you although I was let down they were out of falafel. Lolol I need that next time though.

For a fast food type restaurant the place was nice and inviting to sit and wait for your food to be delivered to you! Falafel Sandwich was great, hummus was good and there was an amazing assortment of desserts to choose from. Conveniently located just south of miracle mile.

My favorite restaurant in Coral Gables! The food is always consistently delicious. Anyone visiting miami I always bring to Shahs of Kabob to have authentic Persian cuisine.
Always order the family platter to try all the meats I can never pick my favorite.
Only Persian restaurant ever that is seed oil free.
The best dessert from the best Sweet Manifesto! Baklava Cheesecake is a must try
