About the project
It started around 2014, when we just liked eating kebab together. It was never only fast food — it was how we caught up, drove around the city, argued, laughed, and kept chasing one perfect version of the thing.
Going out for kebab became an adventure. The thrill of a new spot, the joy of finding something genuinely good, arguments about whether the flatbread had any crunch left and whether the sauce was strong enough — it all turned into a private culture of taste.
Over time it got systematic. Some of us ate several times a week, some daily for months on end. Eat that much and you start wanting to rank it. Criteria followed. Then written reviews.
The market was changing too: more places, more varied kitchens, higher expectations. Papery meat and a flatbread drowning in sauce no longer cut it. People want the real thing — sauce made in house, decent meat, vegan options, packaging that isn’t an apology.
That’s where Kebab Guru came from: a community where people who take kebab seriously meet the places that want to be worth taking seriously. We’re here to bring those two together, push the quality up, help you find your perfect kebab — and have a bit of fun doing it.
There’ll be plenty of garlic sauce.
A word from the team

THREE THINGS DRIVE KEBAB GURU.
- How (non)sensical this idea is.
- How far we can go with a kebab-loving community
- = The team. Good at what they do, equally serious about kebab, and in possession of a strange sense of humour.
Word is, it might turn out alright.
FOR THE LOVE OF LIFE AND KEBABS

Common questions
Can I use Kebab Guru if I’m not a club member?
Can I use Kebab Guru if I’m not a club member?
Yes. Everyone can use the Kebab Guru app and join the Discord community completely free of charge. Membership only grants more access to content and extends action limits.
Your Guru level and capabilities (limits) also grow regardless of whether you are a club member.
What does the Kebab Guru club actually give? What’s it good for?
What does the Kebab Guru club actually give? What’s it good for?
Club members have a few exclusive privileges:
- A special badge in the app and stylistic upgrades (avatars and the like)
- A chance to receive symbolic gifts – stickers, t-shirts or even kebabs
- Priority access to test new features (missions, a discount system, etc.)
- Greater visibility in the community and symbolic support for the project.
Membership isn’t a faster route to a higher level, but a way to show that you care about the project, its quality and direction.

What should you consider when rating a kebab?
What should you consider when rating a kebab?
Everyone rates kebabs differently. These points can help you choose and explain your score. Judge a kebab for what it is and how it is served – not every kebab needs to be the same.
- What’s inside. Is it tasty, served at the right temperature and prepared well? It may be meat, fish, seafood, cheese or plant-based.
- Serving. Does the flatbread or bread taste good and feel properly prepared? Is the wrap, pita, plate, box or skewer easy to eat?
- Ingredients. Are they fresh, good quality and a good match? More ingredients do not always mean a better kebab.
- Sauces and seasoning. Do they taste good, suit the kebab and come in the right amount? Some kebabs do not need sauce.
- Overall taste. Do all the flavours work together, and is the kebab made well?
- Value for money. Are the quality and portion worth the price?
Rate the kebab place separately. That review is for the service, order accuracy, waiting time, cleanliness and atmosphere.
What actions can you take in the app and what are their limits?
What actions can you take in the app and what are their limits?
At the moment there are 3 actions you can take in the app:
- Visiting a kebab place (check-in) – a location-based mark for visiting a place. Starting limits: 1×/day at the same place, 2×/week at the same place, 10×/month.
- Rating a kebab experience – rating the taste, packaging and craftsmanship. Starting limits: 1×/day at the same place, 1×/week at the same place, 3×/month at the same place, 2×/week in total
Each of these experiences gives experience points (exp) that help raise your guru level. As your level rises or you become a club member and thus increase trust, you can raise some of the limits.
We limit things not to limit – but to keep quality and avoid spam.
Are you sponsored by some kebab place?
Are you sponsored by some kebab place?
We do not exclusively support, and don’t intend to support, any single kebab place. We give all businesses equal rights and recommend the ones that delight us.
We don’t sell rating and ranking positions, but we are open to collaboration offers and support.
To collaborate, contact us by email at business@kebabguru.lt
Yet another food ordering platform or a game?
Yet another food ordering platform or a game?
Unlike Google, Wolt or Bolt – we don’t let you order food through the app, but we aim to provide all the information you need in one place, showing every option.
To make searching for kebab places, eating kebabs and spending time with others more interesting and engaging, we use game elements.
Right now we have a basic mechanic of levels, actions and rewards, which we’ll keep improving with the community’s help and ideas. A combat system, rankings, achievements, missions… There are no limits.
