  • This popped up on my radar of Middle Eastern food, and, since I was in the mood today, I made a trip down to the area to run my errands. Like most Middle Eastern eateries here in Charlotte, the owners/cooks made sure that the fare is as "American-friendly" as possible. What do I mean by this? Well, glad you asked! Turkish food, like other Middle Eastern (and to an extent Mediterranean food as well) has its own unique, historic, culture-saturated taste that is very difficult to deal with or enjoy if you're not accustomed to it. The spices are so different than what is generally used in American, or even western European, dishes. That being said, Carolina Kebap kept true to their Turkish ways and added their own twists to menu and food. I ordered the lamb kebap (or kebab, kebob, etc depending on where you hail from in the mid-east!) and it didn't disappoint. The fixin's were good as well; grilled tomato and pepper, small salad, pita bread, and rice that was a blend of basmati and pilaf (interesting and delicious!). What I like the most about the plate was the yogurt dressing they served with the meal. It's similar to a tzatziki sauce in Greek gyros with a twist; it has hints of mint and garlic in addition to the mellow cucumber normally found in tzatziki. I did feel that the portion size was a little on the "small" side, but I did go for lunch, so it wasn't that big of a distraction. The restaurant itself was pleasant, if a bit small. The atmosphere was inviting and clean, with hints of "restaurants-of-Christmas-past" in the front area (I overheard another patron talking about the last 2 restaurants that occupied the same location!). The servers were pleasant and helpful. To top it all off, they played authentic Turkish music to drive home the feel! Overall, a good experience. I'll visit again when in the area, and try some other stuff they have to offer. Noosh!
