Max Kebab

Max Kebab is a small street-food outlet at 29/7 Nicolae Testemițanu Street, in the Malina Mică neighbourhood of the Centru district, on the same street as the republican hospital and several similar venues. It works with kebab in flatbread — meat, potatoes, cabbage and sauces, including a melted-cheese version customers mention most often. The format is quick-order, mainly takeaway; there is no website, and orders are placed on the spot or by phone.

Google reviews put the outlet above average, but they split into two clear camps. Satisfied customers write about the cheese kebab, the generous filling, good sauces and fresh produce. Dissatisfied ones complain about exactly the opposite, and about the same dish: meat and potatoes cold inside, too much cabbage leaving a bitter taste, over-salted and dry, not enough sauce. One customer notes that the speed of preparation seems to come at the expense of the temperature. Separately, a review in English praises the food but criticises staff behaving unprofessionally in front of guests. If you stop here, ask explicitly for the kebab to be made fresh.
