Tut's Kabob

The inspiration

Tut's Kabob opened its doors in Glendora in March 2026, taking over a storefront on South Grand Avenue after the previous owners retired and sold it¹ . The kitchen is built around a family recipe passed down through three generations, bringing the taste of Middle Eastern street food to the table² . The venue describes itself as a family-owned and operated Egyptian restaurant focused on authentic flavors .

Who's behind it

The restaurant is family-owned and family-run, though no individual owner or chef has been named in press coverage or on the venue's own site . The family behind it presents the food as an expression of Egyptian tradition and home-style cooking .

What to order

• Mixed grill platter: a spread of shawarma, kebab and grilled chicken with rice pilaf and fresh salads .²
• Pistachio baklava: a puff pastry with pistachio filling, noted by Campus Times as not too sweet with a flaky bite .¹
