Express Shish Kabob

I was recommended Shish Kabob Express by a woman opening the door for me as I was leaving Haifa Falafel with quite a few takeout bags of food. She said that Shish Kabob was cheaper and even more delicious. After hearing that, I had to try it out!
Shish Kabob Express is located next to Smokehouse Blues on Washtenaw. The sign for the restaurant is hilarious. My roommate openly pondered what compelled a graphic designer to collage together hummus, an ocean, vegetables and cliffs complete with clouds and a yellow sun. I don’t know. Either way, it’s easy to find the restaurant.
Food was delicious, service slow. I don’t know if they were slammed with take out orders or what, but no one else was eating in, so I still don’t know the reason it took 15 minutes to get a frozen lemonade. The spicy fried potato app. was excellent. My roommate and I ordered the same thing; chicken schwarma sandwich with a side of rice. The garlic sauce here is outstanding. My dad loved his mixed meat plate and his salad was tasty, too.
I would definitely return but… maybe next time I would just get take-​out. Eating in here is kind of awkward. There is at least one flat screen tv and not much ambiance, plus the building is all windows. They have been open since February 09.
Lunch specials start at $ 6.50 and are served until 3pm.
