Tasty Kabob closes in Tempe, Curry & Scoop to take over space

Tasty Kabob, a Middle Eastern restaurant and hookah bar on the northwest corner of Dorsey and Apache in Tempe, has closed its doors after 13 years.

But the space won’t be empty for long.

Curry & Scoop, a 2-year-old Indian concept on the southeast corner of McClintock and Elliot in south Tempe, will open a second, full-service restaurant with a full bar in the space this summer.

Besides traditional dishes like tikka masala, chicken biryani, and mango curry, Curry & Scoop offers an ever-changing selection of housemade Indian ice creams.

The exotic ice cream flavors include rose petal, saffron and almonds, and turmeric.
