“The staff are so nice and I loved the falafel, I wouldn't call this real mediterranean food if that's what you're looking for. The meat and falafel are good but the sides and overall tastes are off, not unpleasant but definitely a lack in favor.“
“Falafel bowl couldn't have been any better. $6 for a very large bowl with tons of falafel and veggies and DIY sauce. It has no business tasting so good for that value. The Falafel is so fluffy and delicious. I'd eat here every day if I lived or worked “
“Food - delicious, fresh, healthy, and tasty. Ordered Mezze Lamb Platter, Bocquerones Toast (avocado toast on sourdough bread topped with a hot sauce and anchovies) So Good, must get! - and a shepherd's salad with Bulgarian Sheep Feta. Anchovy was not fishy at all. If I was eating blindfolded, I would not have guessed the toast had anchovies. My new go-to! Service was helpful. We called our order ahead for pickup. Host was friendly and welcoming. Ambiance - beautiful afternoon, great So Cal weather, outside seating, friendly staff and beat lunch crowd. Delicious food. What more can you ask for!“
“Tried their falafel a chicken kebab plates. Loved every bite especially the falafel of course, and the tahini covered lettuce and tomato. I ordered the plate but ended up making my own little wraps anyway as it comes with pita bread. The owners are very friendly and most of the people coming in were obviously regulars and I loved that! Will return soon!“
“This spot has the best hummus in the Los Angeles area.The menu options, the aromas, the flavors will teleport and transcend you to an Israeli hummus experience like no other.Every bite was delicious and indeed yummy.There are several vegan options here that would make anyone want to return for more. My wife and I will.If you're in the area, don't miss Hummus Yummy!“
“It’s hard to find good food in dtla and a lot of places are overrated, had passed by on my way to work and the aroma got my attention. Once I finally tried their cuisine, my mouth was exploding with so many exquisite flavors. 10/10 highly recommend.“
“I love this place. They have the best falafel I've ever had. The hummus and flatbread are so delicious. And the staff is always super friendly. I can't recommend this place enough. It's outstanding.Vegetarian options: Falafel, hummus, pita, Jerusalem salad, pickled veggies, harira soup.Dietary restrictions: Great options if you're eating a Mediterranean diet.Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible.“
“I've been coming here since 1992 or earlier. This is one of my best childhood memories. I remember when the owner had all the autographed pictures of famous people in the walls. I remember he' always said his mother makes the best and has the best recipes, top secret! If you want falafel this is the best. At 44 years old I am still trying to figure out his hot sauce. I crave it. But I'm in Orange County. If I ever go to LA I go there. My wish would be for him to open up in Orange County :)“
“This place NEVER disappoints! The food is always cooked right and the customer service we got from " Pine" at the cashier was amazing they need people like her. Super happy that Zankou opened this location...I couldn't stand the Hollywood Sunset/Normandie location.“
“This place is a hidden gem, very cozy with indoor and outdoor seating. I wished I came here more often... It's tucked in the corner of a plaza, hence the name. I ordered the vegetarian plate and wow, it was delicious! Each bite was filled with layers of flavor and it was fun to eat. My taste buds were happy and it satisfied my hunger. Plus, parking is free and the staff were friendly!“
“Since the first Shabbat that I arrived in America we have been looking for Shabbat catering, since then for about a year we have been coming here every Friday and before holidays to buy kosher and delicious Shabbat catering. I don't know what we would do without this place. He always saves us at the last moment. The owner of the place Dudu always has a sense of humor and good energy!“
“Best Mediterranean food... very generous served. Reasonably priced.. got all the basic of best lunch shawarma, kobob, spicy sausage... great sauces whether spicy, tachini, or spicy mango sauce. And great cabbage ( green or red) and vegetable salad and to add the extra mile grilled jalapeño, and jabka.( yellow spicy pepper) . What a treat... although wasn't very hungry, couldn't resist to eat with great appetite.One glitch, the fried eggplant was soak with oil.. also its known to. Be like sponge for oil, there's ways to lower the vein. Blocker on the veg...Yet overall am amazing treat on a cold, long day.“
“Been coming here since I was a teenager and the food has always been good and exceeded my expectations. If you get the plates you will end up with more food than if you get the wraps. The only negative part about this place is the parking. Many different stores in this place and not enough parking spaces. There are one or two handicapped spots too which are always full so try to find a spot even if it’s further away from the store.“
“You cant go wrong with the food here, the half chicken by the way my favorite os just the best. Such a big good portion that comes. Place is very nice, so is the parkings outside. Only drawback is just lately eating out has gotten so expensive and this is not only in Zankou, this is all over in Cali.“
“Is this good Falafel or what? I've been here twice but it only keeps getting better and better. We got a Falafel baguette, with french fries and a side of chicken schnitzel. I asked for a jalapeño to add a little heat to my food and boy did he delivered . The owner is very friendly and tends to his costumers with a smile. Very kind soul. Cannot recommend this place enough. Also, I didn't take a pic, but he's got a table with a Washing Cup setting for Al Netilas Yadayim. So props for that!“
“Honestly, Zanku has always been og. They’ve been a staple before any of the other Armenian/Mediterranean joints….this location has been around a long time. The last time I had them their chicken was very dry, it was so bad it took a couple of years for me to come back to this location. I was in the mood for a Lule Kabob so got the #16 combo (chicken and Beef) and the Falafel special which came w 2 falafel, lettuce and tahini (peep the pic) If you are a light eater (like myself) this is enough for 2 portions! The customer service was very good, the place was very busy on a Sunday around 2pm. Small rice portions and I wanted the pickled radish but was given the cucumber salad instead. (only get the radish with chicken) missing star*“
