Kotha Grill and Kabab
7.6
A small, newer kebab-and-grill option where the wins come from made-to-order skewers and rice plates more than polished dining-room polish. Order like a regular: one grilled kebab plate, one bread, and one side so you can mix meat, starch, and sauce for better balance.
Must-Try Dishes:
Seekh kebab plate, Chicken kebab over rice, Fresh naan/roti with grilled meats
Scores:
Value: 8
Service: 7.4

What to order: Seekh kebab plate, chicken kebab over rice, fresh bread

Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking only; limited availability and tighter after 6pm. Plan to walk a few blocks or use rideshare.
Dress code: Casual — jeans, sneakers, everyday wear all fit the room.
Noise level: Low to moderate — mostly counter traffic and grill sounds; easy to hold a conversation.
Weekend wait: 10–20 minutes during peak hours, often faster for takeout
Weekday lunch: Usually no wait or under 5 minutes
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Limited — a few veggie sides and bread-based options, but the menu is meat-forward.
Vegan options: Very limited — possible with sides only; not a primary strength.
Gluten-free options: Partial — grilled meats and rice are naturally gluten-free, but cross-contact is possible.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Not ideal for a polished date, but fine for a low-pressure, casual bite if both people value food over ambiance.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes — seating is informal and first-come, and many diners opt for takeout.
Is it kid-friendly? Yes for older kids who eat grilled meats and rice; no special kids’ menu or high chairs.
Best For
Better for: Simple, affordable kebab plates made to order with solid portions and quick turnaround.
Skip if: You want a full-service dining room, a wide vegetarian menu, or a more polished Middle Eastern experience.
