Kolbeh Kabob

8700 Greenback Lane
Orangevale, CA 95662
(916) 990-0233

Persian food is magic. Delicious, flavorful and make great leftovers. We always start with Sahbzee which is flatbread, a pile of herbs, some feta and red onion. You butter some bread and pile it all on. So tasty!

They have lots of great stews and specialties but I always end up with the kabobs. Chicken koobidah is my favorite. Ground, spiced meats formed onto a kabob and served with rice and grilled tomatoes. Sprinkle the lemony Sumac on your rice and you are set!

They also brought us out a treat - the crispy rice from the bottom of the pot. Sometimes served with stew over the top, it is just a crunchy buttery treat.

This place is in a long forgotten strip mall in Orangevale, but some of the best Persian we've had in Sacramento. The staff are lovely and gracious. Check them out.
