George's Inn & Submarines

Popped in here for a quick lunch cause my coworker and I were craving a Fat Boy and fries. While perusing the menu on the Zomato app on the way there, I learned that this particular location serves kebab in addition to burgers...

This was a total game changer causing quite the dilemma as I really wasn't remotely in the mood for kebab (and I didn't know what that was). My colleague noticed that everyone else was eating kebab so we might as well follow along.

Service was quick, we had our koobideh kebab to our tables in less than 10 minutes. The kebab was well cooked as it was very tender, though I would have preferred it to be more flavorful. It comes with a large plate of rice that I had to eat this with and it would have been nice if there was some more flavor to the meat. Some sauce would've been nice but apparently they don't serve kebab with sauce...

If you've ever had shawarma, I would compare that as being the Cadillac and kebab being the Chevrolet. They are kind of the same thing, essentially meat on a stick. Except kebab doesn't come with fancy side salads, no fried potatoes or seasoned rice, and no garlic sauce or hummus. You get a grilled tomato, served with white rice, a pat of butter, and some olives and super spicy raw onions. Also, you're provided with seasoning salt and regular salt to add to your tastes.

Perhaps it's just me and I like the fancy platters you can get at the various shawarma and donair places around town. Of course my judgement is likely also being mired from having originally expecting a greasy burger and fries.

This place was indeed a surprise. This is the only George's I know that serves Kebabs, and they are Superb. They are served with rice and a side of tomato, onion, butter and olives. You can mix these ingredients to your liking and they just work together perfectly. Their kebabs are just juicy, savoury, and freshly cooked. Also the guy in charge was very kind. He even taught us how to eat the Kebab properly (mix the butter with the tomato and rice). Overall, a good place to go for Persian Kebab and Rice.

Love their Persian food.

Haven't tried their subs yet. My fiance tried the Burger and it was good.

Their Iranian food is for sure very tasty. Amazing rice and meat.

Hidden gem of Winnipeg! Been there several times and every time I and my friends go there, it tastes as fresh as the last time.

AMAZING! AMAZING! AMAZING!

Persian cuisine - We've tried their chicken and rice platter as well as their beef kabob (called Koobideh) and rice platter.

Best part is that it's extremely reasonably price. In fact, it's cheap if I may for freshly made food.

MUST TRYYYYY, FELLOW WINNIPEGGERS!

This is the best Persian food i have had in Winnipeg. Love the platter size and presentation. Sometimes they both come together to serve the food. Very friendly service. I love how they welcome and say good-bye to everyone with so much love!The only drawback is that the owner can barely speak English and also it is only him and his wife; so if it is busy, the serving can be quite slow. The name of the restaurant is still same as the one with previous owner; it is: George and submarine!! When I asked why did he change the name, he said because of his poor English, he hasn't had a chance to go after changing the name! Anyways, I recommend their food!
