I come here every few weeks since the pandemic started because the kabobs are delicious! Service is great even when they’re very busy with tables and pick-ups (they were doing their best on a very busy Monday night), and the taste of the entrees is certainly one of the best (coming from a Persian as well). Highly recommend the salmon, steak, and shrimp kabobs- these are my go-to and always on rotation. Bulgar wheat side is also a nice switch from the usual white/brown rice.
You have to try the Roasted Salmon & Brie
$14.99
Grilled Sustainable Fresh Atlantic Salmon, Melted Brie, Roma Tomatoes, Fresh Dill, Capers and Red Onions.
Loved the food, portion size, quality, taste, and ambiance. Many vegetarian options to choose and loved the hummus and tofu kabob. Planning to try more veggie options available there soon. Only con is unclean restroom . Can maintain restrooms better.
We were a party of 6 and sat at outdoor table. The heater was only on one end of the table so the person sitting on the other end was cold. There was an additional heat lamp. Service was slow maybe because it was a Saturday evening. We sat outside for a good 10-15mins before the waitress showed up.
The reason for the 4 star is for the food which was well seasoned and large quantity.
I probably will order to-go in the future.
This is our second dining experience with a Panini Kabob Grill. Emma was our waitress this evening, and suggested the beautiful tofu and vegetable kabob it was absolutely fabulous. My fiancé had the Alfredo linguine and said it was cooked to perfection. The ambience was a beautiful setting with music playing in the courtyard sitting out on the patio. They have heaters that made the evening extremely comfortable. We’re not the couple to order dessert but Emma told us the banana bread pudding was the best and she didn’t disappoint with her suggestion. If you’re looking for a great place, that’s local in Carmel Valley/Del Mar with a variety of foods from beef, seafood & vegetarian options give this place a try. And their prices are extremely reasonable. I’m gonna give this a five star rating and we will be back compliments to the chef for a fabulous night out.

My wife has gestational diabetes and I have high cholesterol (this is despite us both being pretty fit and clean eaters, but I digress). The two health diagnosis above are important because it’s tricky to eat out to accommodate such restrictions. We wanted to try this spot since a Mediterranean diet is within reason for us.
I got the avocado salad with added
grilled salmon 🍣 kebob. The salad 🥗 itself wasn’t anything special - just a variety of 🥬, and about half an avocado. The dressing, as simple as it was (I think lemon 🍋 juice, and olive oil) was actually quite refreshing. But the salmon was REALLY good, and filling, which is important considering the salad is just water. It was about 5 oz of salmon. All combined, it was a very tasty salad that rang true to a healthy meal and was respectful to my dietary restrictions. 💪🏼
My wife got the chicken kebob plate. The 🐓 was very very tasty. The kebob made better because of the tomato 🍅 and white onion 🧅 that grilled along with the chicken - a seemingly clean version of a chicken parmigiana (no cheese here). There was a simple salad and some brown rice, both good complements but nothing like the kebob. It was 🤤.
For an appetizer, we had the caprese salad (fresh mozz with tomato 🍅 and pesto, with cucumber 🥒 instead of pita 🫓 ). The pesto was on point. Very flavorful. I’m sure it’d be a pinch better with the pita, but that’s on us for not trying it that way. With cucumbers, it was a very fresh app, good for a hot day.
And the service was very good too. Friendly and responsive. Kudos to the restaurant. A great experience. Especially on a delicate diet.
It is my first time that I am giving 5/5 stars to a restaurant. I was really surprised by tasty food, service, portions,prices,vibe,...
I recommend here definitely. I hope all those good things that I mentioned are for everyday.
We ordered Family meal but we changed chicken with Koobide and Flat iron Kebab, it came with two different rices and two different Salads. It was enough for 4 people.
But I have to say finding this place according to Google map was a pain. I have been there just once. We will be back soon once we need more calories 😄
My friends and I had a great time in Panini. The food is great and the price is affordable. I never had kobideh but every one says it is the best. I normally have Chicken and always delicious. Our server was great too.
We love their family style entree. More than enough food and tastes delicious. Just be careful if you take it to go, kabob can stink up the car but that’s not their fault. It’s just how kabob is.
It was my first visit to Panini Kabob and I would say the kabob koobideh was quite good, much better than my expectation👌. The portion size is relatively large too.
Wow. Just wow. This place has the best beef I have EVER tasted and I am not exaggerating. I took my first bite of the beef koobideh kabob and I teared up. It is so tender and a MUST if you are coming here. You will not regret getting this dish!!!
Very beautiful restaurant with indoor and outdoor setup for lunch and dine in. Staffs are very friendly and food was tasty too with lots of Vegetarian options. You will definitely love this place.
The food is good and the waiter was very nice. I am not gonna give this place 5 stars because I went when there was pretty much no one there and the food still took forever. But like I said the food was delicious and our waiter was very good just the kitchen was a little slow.
I loved their chicken kebab and falafel wrap. Their salad are very fresh.
While it is not on the menu officially, my friends and I each ordered the mixed Kebab plate, so it had one skewer of marinated chicken kabob and one skewer of ground steak kabob, and then choice of salad and side. I had the Bulgur wheat side and the avocado mixed salad. Everything was Perfection from start to finish. Pleasant patio, gracious and attentive service oh, and the food was absolutely the best Mediterranean or middle eastern we have ever tried! The meat was fresh, cooked to perfection, flavored and seasoned perfectly, and you could tell it was high quality meat. Portions are generous and I ate until I thought I would burst, and still had a generous portion of leftovers to take home! Fresh, healthy, delicious, and actually very reasonably priced! We will definitely be repeat customers!
Absolutely mind blowing quality of food! You can really taste it. And the service is really good. Highly recommend this place!
