Red Kabob Leesburg Virginia

Red Kabob entered the Loudon exurban strip mall family-owned restaurant act in mid 2009, giving dominant player Moby Dick a much needed run (the Loudoun area lacks the sometimes overwhelmingly diverse Mediterranean options found in other parts of the DC Metro).  We stopped in for lunch yesterday and would use one word – serviceable – to describe the experience.

Meat was great as were the spices used, beef was cooked to order and not dry like some kabob joints.  Rice was great but would pass on the bread (not fresh or wood fired in preparation from what we could tell) and sauces were solid but a bit thin.  Still, the family atmosphere and readiness to take on any special preparation requests make Red Kabob worth a try.

Would we recommend? Yes, with only minor reservations.  Food quality of everything but the bread was solid, and it’s an owner operated, friendly, local business.  Considering the serious lack of quality cuisine in central and eastern Loudoun County, Red Kabob probably should be on your list.
