OUR STORY
EVERYONE'S GOT one, HERE'S OURS...
Our recipes have been passed down (for years) from expert chefs dating back to the former Avetis Blikian – a famous “khasab” (butcher) in Armenia that facilitated the country’s entire domestic livestock market. This is why we have a heartfelt embodiment that “food is our passion, and not our hobby.” People need food to live, and we need people to feed. We have been operating in California since 1972 specializing in marinated kabob meats, cooked dishes, and deli services. Throughout the years, a large portion of our operations has been targeted towards wholesale transactions to catering companies and restaurants. Our locations became notorious for the place where customers would finish their kabobs while waiting in line, leaving them with only rice and salad to take home. It's healthy to give yourself a pat on the back every now and then, right? This is why we are renowned for acclaims such as “Best Kabob in Town” and “Best Food Award Winner” by The Los Angeles Times for 5 consecutive years... Humbly stated of course. Simply put, we’re in it for the long haul.
