Kebab Bar
8.2
Kebab Bar brings a slightly more polished take on Persian and Mediterranean kebabs to the Sepulveda corridor, with juicy skewers, fresh salads, and creamy dips built from family recipes. It’s a strong choice for a quick but satisfying sit-down meal before or after airport runs.

Beef koobideh plate, Chicken kabob plate with salad and rice, Falafel with hummus

What makes it special: Family-run Mediterranean spot near LAX focusing on well-executed kebab plates and fresh mezze.
Who should go: Small groups needing a tasty pre- or post-flight meal.
When to visit: Evenings before the dinner rush or after airport pickups.
What to order: Beef koobideh, chicken kabob plate, side of falafel and hummus.
Insider tip: Grab a patio table if the weather cooperates; the outdoor seating is more relaxed than the compact interior, and staff are generally pet-friendly.
Logistics & Planning
Parking: Shared lot parking is available in the plaza, usually easy during weekdays but can get tight around peak dinner hours. Street parking on Sepulveda is possible but often limited.
Dress code: Casual and comfortable. Athleisure, jeans, and travel-ready outfits all fit right in.
Noise level: Moderate. You can hold a conversation easily, though outdoor seating is noticeably quieter than inside.
Weekend wait: 10–20 minutes for small groups; larger parties may wait up to 30 minutes.
Weekday lunch: Typically no wait; food comes out quickly even during the light rush.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Good selection—falafel plates, mezze, salads, and grilled veggie options.
Vegan options: Moderate options—falafel, hummus, baba ganoush, and certain salads. Confirm dressings to keep them vegan.
Gluten-free options: Several kabob plates and salads are naturally gluten-free. Pita is optional, and staff are accommodating but there’s no dedicated GF prep area.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Yes for a casual or activity-focused first date. It’s relaxed, quick, and the patio has a friendly vibe, though it’s not a candlelit, intimate setting.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes. It’s primarily walk-in friendly, especially for small groups. Peak weekend dinners may require a short wait, but turnover is fast.
Is it kid-friendly? Yes for families with kids 5+. The menu is approachable, portions are shareable, and the patio is ideal for wiggly little ones. No dedicated kids’ menu, but staff are flexible.
Best For
Better for: Quick, flavorful kebab plates made with care, plus a convenient location near LAX that rivals most airport-area options. Great for groups and outdoor dining.
Skip if: You want a long, leisurely fine-dining Middle Eastern experience or an extensive wine/cocktail program.
