Ill put my neck on the line and say that having tried all of the above, the best kebab in dublin is from Kebabish on clanbrassil street..

I love Zaytoon's chicken shish. Usually don't bother with rice or chips.

The only downside is that their cutlery is a bit crappy, makes cutting hard.

Ask them to roll it for you. Much more enjoyable to eat it then.

Kebabish Clanbrassil St. enough said! Its defo better than Zaytoon. And they dont open late, so Im assuming everyone that ate there was in a sober-ish state when they ate there! Although I am going to use this thread to try out the likes of Iskanders and such

+1 for Kebabish. I guess that most people know Zaytoon and Iskanders because they are in the City Centre, but Kebabish really is better.

Any idea what time they close? I'm just around the corner and hungry

. Want to put this dubious "better than Zaytoon" claim to the test.

that's seriously lazy, but i like your style!
i'm also thinking that claim is dubious though. please report, post haste!

Ok, I walked around the corner, it's open :-). One lamb kebab(ish) on the way.

Warper · 19-10-2011 11:35PM

Iskanders - Lamb Shish Plate beats everything hands down. 2 Pitta breads, nice chunky lamb bits, salads, sauce, chillies with chips, drink. 12.70 i think. Zaytoon is over-rated and Kebabish is rank. Get the Lamb Shish plate from Iskanders and come back on here and see. NB Get the plate so you make your own kebab

hobert187 · 19-10-2011 11:36PM

Should have tried the chicken shish as the acid test. but no doubt it will be good!

That Iskanders Lamb Shish Plate sounds biblical Im gona have to try that!

Toss up between Zaytoon and Iskanders but Zaytoon give you a lot more during the day.
Tasty Hut on Dorset St also deserves a mention - its never busy so the portions are always very bigger.

Best value Indian in town - Chicken Chilli Masala is the biz - under a tenner incl nan/rice and scrumptious

Goodshape · 19-10-2011 11:52PM

Kebabish is good, not great. Certainly no Zaytoon.

UrbanSea · 21-10-2011 12:08AM

Lads is Zaytoon the one beside Boylesports near Tesco on Camden?

And is Kebabish the one around the corner from Griffith College?

Yes and yes. There's also a Zaytoon's in Temple Bar.

zaytoon , had it first time in a while the other evening... nom

Shanannigan · 21-10-2011 05:42AM

nice to see my post resurrected.. i still maintain that Iskanders do a mighty fine Lamb Shish...

also for the falafel fans, Ephasus on the corner of Abbey and Capel Street does a dam good falafel for a paltry €4

Gyalist · 21-10-2011 03:34PM

There's also a Kebabish on Sth Richmond Street in Portobello. That not the one I was recommending. They aren't connected to the one on Clanbrassil Street and the food isn't half as good (though it is cheaper).

Any good ones in the suburbs around Dublin 5?

Jesse Custer · 23-10-2011 12:18PM

jamal 5-in-1 in inchicore do a great mixed kebab..and comes with free can of coke

I've never eaten in Abrakebabra in my life and there's one a stone's throw from my new home here in Donnybrook. Are their kebabs any good? I'm not expecting Zaytoon quality, of course, but I'm a kebab addict and I need my fix.

I wouldn't even class what Abra sell as a kebab. There is no comparison to the likes of Zaytoon or Iskanders.

Zaytoon on Parliament street is the nicest kebab ( chicken shish ) in Dublin by far.

Drink ten beers before going. It'll be just about passable as food then.

I find that Italian chippies don't do kebabs that well. They're often stuffed into soggy white pittas and are soaked in a sickening chilli/garlic sauce. The kebabs from the likes of Zaytoon/ Sultan etc are far far better IMO.

In a way thats why i regretted ever eating in iskanders or zaytoon there kebabs are so tasty they make you realise chipper kebabs are useless and they just dont fulfil that craving for a kebab anymore

, and all the good places are in town and dont do deliverys.
