About Mentone Kebab House

Skip the processed mince cones—Mentone Kebab House stakes its name on genuine, tender cuts of spit-carved lamb wrapped in warm, pillowy bread. Regulars drop in for hefty halal snack packs stacked high over seasoned chips and balanced sauces, served by a crew that greets you by name. Pair your order with crisp chips dusted in chicken salt, or grab a slice of baklava baked fresh right on site.

  • Genuine carved lamb: Kebabs and snack packs feature proper, whole cuts of lamb rather than processed minced meat.
  • Warm counter hospitality: Fist bumps, generous chips, and attentive counter staff keep regulars feeling right at home.
  • House-baked baklava: Pastries are prepared and baked fresh on site rather than sourced pre-packaged from outside.

  • Lamb Kebab

    Me and my partner both ordered lamb, and to our surprise they use proper lamb rather then processed lamb mince like many others kebab stores.

Before you head over

Practical tips on portion sizing, order verification, and late visits

  • Plan for Generous Portion Sizes

    Portions are exceptionally generous—a single large snack pack can comfortably satisfy two people, and even mini or regular sizes can easily leave you with leftovers.

  • Verify Your Counter Total

    Double-check your order total and receipts at the counter during busy rushes to verify itemized charges before paying.

  • Ordering Near Closing Time

    If you are arriving close to closing time, staff are accommodating and will take orders right up until the final minutes before shutting.
