The meat on chips is THE ultimate hangover cure. They use shoestring fries for the chips which are PERFECTLY cooked and seasoned - even after leaving my leftovers in the fridge for a couple of hours the fries were still crispy!? I got both the lamb and chicken - both of which were delicious. The own
Definitely the best kebabs in Nelson!!! Have been coming here for many years when visiting Nelson and the food is always so tasty and full of flavour. Absolutely giving extra point for service too.

Really fast service and the staff are professional and cool to talk to. the food is yummy!!
Have been here on and off over the past 10+ yrs. Love the food. Have dined in a few times. Very pleasant. Love the coffee. Kebabs have always been my fave to get. But I've tried everything on their menu and can't fault a thing. Eskander is a big meal and enjoy it hot. Vegetarian options I actually l
Huge meat on fries portion for not that much money! Delicious lamb kebab! Was completely stuffed!
Great service, delicious kebabs and Turkeys coffee. Great cozy place
We ordered nine kebabs. The pleasant, courteous man worked quickly and skilfully to get the order ready in no time. He even 'threw in' some hot chips for the kids!
The kebabs were SO tasty...a healthy takeaway that was delicious. Thank you.
The best kebab box in the town. Highly- recommended.
My wife and I ate delicious lamb kebabs dining in. We had just finished the abel tasman tramp and they really hit the spot. The guy behind the counter was really friendly with the customers too!
Best I town by far lots of mouth watering meat and welcoming friendly service 😁
I met the lovely Chef at Akbabas on a flight to Nelson and decided to come in and try and a Kebab. The service was absolutely fantastic and so was the food. The restaurant itself has a super cosy vibe and is nice to sit in. 10/10 recommend to anyone in the area, will defiantly be going back when I'm
Absolutely amazing food, so quick too! The vegetarian zucchini kebabs are flipping epic. Always stop here if I am in Nelson.
We tryed the mixed meat iskender twice lately, didn't disappoint, nice fresh clean food, pleanty of it to fill you up even in the smaller size meal, beats greasy fried takeaways anyday
Hands down the best Turkish in the south island!! I lived in nelson over 7 years ago... this was my regular weekly takeaways, and I still crave and dream of it! I know live in Christchurch, lots of options but no one has come close to akbabas!!
My usual consists of a large chicken and falafel iskin
Consistently the best kebab in Nelson
I grew up in Nelson and have been coming to Akbabas since I was 19 years old.
Absolutely love their souvlakis and salads, both the chicken and the lamb.
The chicken is done in a really nice marinade.
Great fresh food, good portion sizes with good prices.
Highly recommend.
TOP PICK for Kebab!!!For 20 years this was the best Kebab in the South Island. It has slipped a little-not quite the mouth watering juiciness I remember.They were very busy though and still 9.la 9/9.5 out of 10. But very fast service and the staff managed to chat and cook at the same time. Most of
Best place in Nelson! The assistant is crack up! Definitely recommend to everyone! Large mixed meat kebab with sweet chilli and mayo is my go to!
I've been going to Akbaba's for about 15 years, the food has always been very good, and consistent, I buy the Ishkenda usually and it's always enough for dinner and lunch the next day.
