KABAB

I had their falafel plate. The falafel are served on veggies with dressing. It comes with a piece of pita. It was overdressed, but it was otherwise very decent.
It’s $ 11.99. Is it overpriced? Yes maybe, but it’s probably a pretty good deal at the Seattle Center.
The service was ok. My order was ready very quickly. The cashier was not the most friendly person, but he was not rude.
For a quick bite to eat, I will come back here again.

The quality of meat is very poor, it is expensive though and the owner is very rude. I will never eat here anymore specially because of his attitude.

I wanted a vegan dish and the cashier was rude and did not know what was in any of the vegetarian dishes. I got the vegetarian plate and it only had 2 falafels which looked like they came frozen from a box. Also, THEIR PITA BREAD IS NOT HOMEMADE, they store bought most of their food. Another issue is they asked for a tip at a fast food restaurant! And the dish I ordered was 13 $ for a salad.

Well they’re overpriced, but that goes w/​the territory (Seattle Center); one imagines the city charges them some humongous rent for being there. Got the gyros sandwich; meat was OK, though cut a little thick, fewer chunks rather than many slices; sign of knife ineptitude or rushing, imo. But it tasted ok and there was enough of it. Next day during Folklife Festival I went back and had a taste for rice. They offer a chicken rice bowl at a reasonable price. I asked if I could have a Gyros rice bowl. Sure, they said, and quoted the full price for a gyro sandwich (8.95) plus the full price of a side of rice (2.99). Asked if they just sold a small side of gyros; same story — 8.95. I’ve eaten small orders of gyros atop rice or fries many places, in a couple countries. But not here. If you want any gyros at all it’s gonna cost 8.95. I ate somewhere else the second day.
Also I object to being cadged for a tip by the credit card ordering app, in a fast food restaurant, where they basically won’t do anything for you.

Hands down amazing authentic middle eastern food! I can’t wait to try everything on the menu! Try the falafel you won’t be disappointed.

Terribly disappointed. I wish I would have seen the reviews before I wasted my money. Food was not good. Service was terrible and I waited almost 20 minutes for 4 kabab’s. Once again food was terrible

I came here a few times before, when some event brought me to Seattle center, I’d always go to kabab to have chicken gyro. I tried both the gyro plate (with salad and hummus) and the gyro sandwich. The chicken is juicy and flavorful. Best chicken gyro I’ve had. A bit pricey but so are most places in the Seattle center armory.

$ 12 dollars for a «gyro salad». Not many vegetables, mostly lettuce, and bland, oversalted, overcooked lettuce. An excess of a watery, forgettable tahini dressing. Quite the disappointment, even for the Armory.

One of the best Gyro and Rice Pilaf we ever tasted. We are definitely going back here to eat before we leave Seattle.

During the happy our event at Seattle center we were a bit hungry and went to KABAB, unfortunately it wasn’t really satisfying.
We had the beef gyro; the bread was good, the veggies and the sauce were okay too, but the meat was chewy and gristle. That’s definitely something they could improve.
I think my next gyro will come from a different place.

Super tasty and well made and balanced. I love pita sandwiches that don’t fall apart and make a mess. I was even able to read my book while enjoying my sandwich. It’s tourist prices, but not bad for the area. I’m leaving perfectly satiated.
Note: I got the chicken kabab sandwich without the tahini sauce.

You’re at the Seattle Center and your hungry so you wander into the Armory. Lines everywhere and choices galore you feel overwhelmed and just want food. Quick and tasty food.
This scenario happens to all of us. Be it once or a few times a year, I’m sure you’ve all been there. For me it’s much more often than I’d like. I am a Seattle native and have watched many places come and go and tried them all.
Kebab is hands down the solid choice in the armory for quick good food. When faced with long lines it’s almost guaranteed that I can get right to the counter and come away with a tasty plate. Speaking of plates, I do recommend you forgo the gyro for a plate combo. It’s not much more than you’d pay at the neighboring establishments and the flavor is much better. The staff are also very friendly and you walk away thinking you made a good decision.

Don’t eat here!
Got a gyro salad there yesterday for lunch because the MOD pizza line was too long. It’s no wonder there was no line at Kabab. The salad was mediocre at best, pricey, and a few hours later I had severe vomiting from food poisoning. Since this was the only meal I had yesterday, i definitely got sick from Kabab. I don’t normally post reviews but I hope no one else gets sick from food poisoning there.

My mom, uncle, and I were looking for a quick bite to eat, and stumbled on this little café. After seeing their «vegetarian special plate», we decided we would give it a try.
My mom and I both ordered the vegetarian special plate, which came with hummus, a salad, some sort of curry ball (two), and another salad underneath that, plus pita bread. First thoughts was the food seemed overpriced. Each part of the meal was alright, however not very filling. There was too much hummus, and not enough ‘proper food’.
My uncle had beef kebab plate, which looked more filling as it came with rice. Overall it would do in a pinch, but I just wished there was something more filling. Also, we received two pieces of pita bread to share between the three of us, which wasn’t terribly generous considering the amount of money we paid.
May come back in the future, but most likely not.

The staff seemed friendly enough, but unfortunately my order, the spanakopita turned out to be terrible. Rather than stuffing it with spinach and feta cheese, they stuffed it 90% full of cooked onions!!! The other 10% had some semblance of what I presume was feta and very cooked and soggy spinach. This made it almost unbearable to eat, basically like eating a bunch of cooked onion rather than a spanakopita. The dough was also not light and fluffy, but very thin and saggy, and not crusty at all. They pre-​make it and heat it on the spot. Maybe their other dishes are better, but seeing the other reviews and having this experience, I would not try them again. My friend had something from the place next door (one of the meat pies with mashed potatoes) and seemed quite happy with her order.

Sandwiches are small, not tasty, you would be better off if you get something from skillet right next door or the pizza place around the corner.

Everything around this area is going to be expensive. Why? It’s all tourist of course. The food was alright, like meh alright. The Unilocal stars are right. I got the kabab and it was alright. Pretty much it’s alright.
I honestly have no way of explaining this place but saying alright. It’s like something I’d eat when I’ve been in the field for too long and is extremely hungry and want something quick alright.

I don’t really like the Armory at the Seattle Center for a couple of reasons. It’s too difficult to find parking, the restaurants are often overpriced, and they removed the Orange Julius years ago. Plus, I can never get over the fact that «Armory» is such a weird name for a place like this. Anyway, this place caught my attention when it seemed more promising than anywhere else in the food court.
You can expect a very long line first of all. Don’t be surprised if you end up paying absurd amounts for food here nevertheless. This place had me shell out ten dollars for a gyro sandwich, and the thing was pretty small. What a waste. The only thing saving me from giving this place a negative review is that I wouldn’t know where else to go for food in the immediate area.

I have to knock this place down hard. Their lamb gyro sandwich was by far the worst I’ve ever had. Meat might as well have been bologna. Sauce was weird and fries were cold. And for the meat on a stick. It was mediocre if that.
Especially for that way steep price for the poor excuse of meat they serve.
They even charge for refills. That’s obnoxious.
Never again.

Kabab has been remodeled but you’ll still find the same mediocre food there. It’s nice to have some reliability in the world.
Even though I knew better, I was craving a lamb gyro while at Seattle Center for a festival. Will I never learn? Apparently not.
The lamb lacked flavor and made me sad, sad that anyone could prepare such a fantastic dish with such lackluster results. I have to say that Kabab has the worst tzatziki I’ve ever had. Everything about the gyro was dry and the tzatziki made me cringe with each bite I took. NOTE: The owner has informed me that what I tasted was not tzatziki but tahini. I admire the reasons for choosing tahini (because of dairy sensitivities).
Remodeling is great — clean, shiny, and looks awesome. I’d rather Kabab spend their time and energy re-​vamping the quality of their food.
