“MUST try FALAFEL sandwich. Perfect with thin pita, scrumptious fresh veggies & sauce. Now my favorite in SoCal. Sorry, intended to get picture but sooo good forgot..lolAzzie is amazing & explains how all is cooked fresh. Went back and bought tge lentil soup!“
“You will not find better service than when you enter Borjstar. Honestly, they treat you like a star. They are attentive and incredibly kind, friendly, and accommodating. The food is just as great. Very flavorful and leaves you wanting more! They also have a yogurt/ice cream dispenser so you can treat yourself before/after your meal. Put Borjstar on your list of restaurants to visit in the Gardena/South Bay area. You won't regret it!“
“Hidden gem. Stopped by a bit early on a Friday night with my wife and kiddo and we had a fantastic experience. Cocktails were tasty, food was delicious, service was excellent, and the vibe was super friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend the roasted cauliflower, tuna bruschetta, farmer's cheese, the duck special if they have it, and any one of their fantastic (healthy pours) wines on tap. Can't wait to come back!“
“City of Paramount and local restaurants partnered up and gave away $50 gift cards. Lucky for me I scored on one, took advantage and chose Fatima's to finally try it out. The Downey location is always packed so I was happy to see a new location closer to me and hope I'd like it. My chile relleno burrito did not disappoint! I recently tried one at a different restaurant and felt the relleno was pointless and was not impressed. Fatima's burrito changed my perspective on that and the chile relleno with all the cheese was life! 4/5 only thing I wish they had was a good spicy/hot salsa to pair with it. I snagged the roasted hot jalapeno off my friends Chicken Kabob plate. Chicken 4/5 was good, juicy & flavor able but the rice 2/5 I was not a fan of. Tried the Birria Taco 3/5 they are generous with the meat because it came in 2 tortillas I was able to make 2 tacos out of the 1 and share it. The fish taco here was not to our liking. I do look forward to returning and trying other menu items. Also had good service.“
“Ordered a falafel burrito and the hummus with pita, and cheese quesadilla with chipotle sauce on the side via Uber eats.I wasn't crazy about the pita bread itself and the hummus was just ok, but the falafel burrito was great! I love the fries in it and the tahini is delicious. The burrito is very large and very filling, I ended up saving half for the next day and it was still just as tasty. I highly recommend getting a side of chipotle sauce to dip anything you order in!“
“The staff was friendly and very attentive. I dined with a party of 6 and everyone seemed to enjoy the food and the portions were generous . We shared the mezza appetizer which was delicious and definitely enough for the 6 of us. I ordered a chicken bowl which was tasty but the chicken kabob was overcooked.“
“Have been coming to LBX for a while now to try new things and I can definitely say that this is now one of my favorite places to go to. Shout out to Jesus for being extremely nice and recommending me a dish that was absolutely delicious! I will definitely be coming back and bringing my friends and family along with me next time.“
“Absolutely exceptional food. They always exceed the expectations of any guests I invite and they did so this time.I ordered the salmon kebab today. I was worried it would be dry but it was nice and moist. Great herbs the salmon. Excellent hummus and their garlic sauce is always amazing. Most places do vegetables as an after thought but they are a great main feature here.Vegetarian options: I ordered salmon kabob but it came with a vegetable kabob. Unlike most places where vegetables are an afterthought here they are a main feature. I wasn't specifically looking for vegetarian options I'm sure they have something great for vegetarians.“
“Delicious, quick and friendly service. Many different menu options to choose from: appetizers, a la carte, soups, pita wraps, gyro bowls, house specialties, vegetarian, and all the way to a combo meal for the whole family. Don't forget to save room for the Arabic coffee and dessert!Vegetarian options: Greek Salad, Falafel Plate, Veggie Stew, Lentil Soup, Hareera Stew“
“This is my favorite place to treat myself during the week. I go here with my partner every chance I get. The food is absolutely amazing. The options are endless and I try to get something new every time I go. The entire staff is outstanding. The owners are very welcoming and passionate. Liza is very sweet, kind, and a character. Stephanie is very kind as well. 10/10 would recommend this spot. All 100% halal!“
“This is my favorite place in the south bay, its mandatory after a beach day, I would take a photo but i always ravage the food from beach or gym hunger before I can…. This place is just unbeatable in the category's it serves. I see it as the best in Mediterranean, portion size, flavor, quality and all out healthy for you, I eat here year round but i start eating alot more in the months leading to summer. got to get my summer body ready!!Vegetarian options: a lot of options for vegetarians its labeled with a green leaf if i remember correct. im not even a vegetarian and i always order their maison special salad, im sure you can just get any salad with no chicken as well.“
“I’m from Utah and I come here with my aunt all the time I visit for the first time ever we waited longer then we usually do because they gave our order to someone else but it was no problem they promised us it would be out very soon which it did and I’m happy that even better gave us desserts on the house got my self a water the lady in black I don’t know her name was very nice and helpful I asked her if her baklava had any peanut and she showed me the ingredients which had none so I’m grateful for that I really love this place and it’s the first place I want to go when I first California I highly recommend this place to everyone best chicken ever I love this place so much from the bottom of my heart“
“I had Lamb wrap. The lamb was top quality and melted in my mouth. My friend had the koubideh kabob and again the quality of the meat was second to none. Hameed was very attentive and gave us a lovely sample of cauliflower soup and he’s very passionate about the food served. Farhad was our server and he was an absolute joy! You can tell when someone enjoys their work. Fantastic food and wonderful service.Oh and no forgetting I had the chocolate tart for dessert….it was heavenly! Yum yum yum“
“Been past this place hundreds of times, finally ordered out and I am glad I did! Compared to any other Mediterranean grill this is the best! Everything was seasoned to perfection, full of flavor, and filling.We got the Shwarma mix plate and the Kabob Mix plate, that way we were able to try the chicken and beef. The kabobs : amazing, the beef was perfectly grilled and seasoned. The chicken was garlicky and char grilled but not burnt. The beef shwarma was full of flavor as well as the chicken.I'm typically not the biggest hummus fan as I've had a lot that have been pasty or gritty, lacked flavor or too oily. This hummus was great! I tried it thinking meh I'll probably let my husband have it bit after the first bite I devoured it with the pita.Oh the rice! Wow! It was buttery and tasted like it was cooked in a broth.I went in not expecting to be so pleased with our meal and by the time we finished everything, we were satisfied and know know where to grab amazing Mediterranean food whenever we crave it. It was about $20 per plate per person but the quality of the food, the taste and the portion is well worth it!“
“Hummus has different variety. I chose garlic which I think could be better as it was rather dry. Otherwise, the shrimp kabob was really delicious. Fresh and succulent! The lady serving us was really kind and helpful. More lighting could help with the ambience.“
“Came to this spot for the first time last Friday on a double date ! Very cute spot for a date night or even with friends and family . It’s a cute restaurant. Luckily we made reservations because it’s very busy ! Omgosh the pita and the beef hummus and labneh ! Was my favorite ! The desserts were all so good too ! We ordered the fatoush salad and the rice - excellent ! We kept ordering pita - remember they aren’t free ! The price is a little steep but the food and the service were good so we were pleased !Parking: There’s a lot on that street“
“While the location is not the absolute best, the food and service makes up for any faults. I used to go there all the time when I was younger, and recently decided to try it again a few times. It did not disappoint. I had a chicken kabob with came with an immense amount of sides to go along including white rice, pita and hummus, along with a few vegetables, and garlic sauce. Everything is perfectly seasoned and nothing is bland. This will definitely become a future regular place.“
“Taste like homemade food. Chicken was moist, vegetables were just right, not crunchy nor mushing. The same goes for the rice. Food was lightly seasoned. Health options for a restaurant/ fast food place. The price of each meal is around $16 -$21.Kid-friendliness: Family friendly“
“such a delicious and amazing experience for our first time here in the Kebab Shop. to start with, the interior is on point, very clean and laid back vibes. the service is also wonderful, the kind young woman in the front was very sweet. food is absolutely WOW!! so much flavor, the sauces and meats are just so delicious. i would recommend this place any day <3Vegetarian options: falafel is available!“
“I recently tried out a new dining spot and ordered the Kebab Plate, Chicken Plate, and a Kids' Plate. The prices were surprisingly affordable, offering great value for money. The food had a delicious, healthy taste that was immediately noticeable. The staff at the restaurant created a welcoming atmosphere, and I was impressed by the meticulous cleanliness of the place. One unique aspect that stood out was that the card payment process did not prompt for a tip, which was unexpected but appreciated. This was my first visit, and the positive first impression makes me want to become a regular customer.“
“I may have written a review about Sebastian's Mediterranean Cuisine when it was located in a different downtown area of San Pedro. This review refers to the new location on 6th street - conveniently between the harbor and the Warner Grand Theater. This restaurant is SUPERB! I have eaten there several times over the past few weeks. The food is fresh and plentiful. I have my favorites - first being the Lentil Soup. This is the only place I have eaten lentil soup that didn't have tomato (I am allergic). It is hearty and the flavor is "just right"! Second is their appetizer sampler. We recently tried the three humus trio, buffalo cauliflower, Brussel sprouts that are cartelized, and falafel. Honestly, they are all equally as good! Plus the dish comes with a generous portion of warm pita and a. mini-salad.Next - the kabobs! The seafood / salmon kabob is cooked to perfection. The chicken one is very popular, as well. I frankly found them yummy for a bite or two but wanted to save room for other dishes.The falafel sandwich is absolutely the yummiest! And the greek salad is also a nice addition to any meal!Don't expect a fancy restaurant - it is not. But the food more than makes up for it! And the staff is amazing- very attentive but not overbearing!All in all - I give Sebastian's two thumbs up! Bring your appetite - there is much to enjoy here!Vegetarian options: The lentil soup and hummus trio.“
“I have eaten at check on my phone many times if you want a semi Mediterranean food they have a good selection here I do like their salmon Kabob and their chicken kabob. And I do love to believe so they're almost as great and their garlic sauce is greatVegetarian options: They have salads they have vegetables they have falafel they have quite a few items to choose from“
“Amazeballs! One of the best Mediterranean places I've been to. My friend who's Egyptian showed me this place. I have to say this is better than zankou chicken. I know they're both chain restaurants but still. The grape leaves are amazing. I got the kofta kabob and it was tender and juicy. Oh and the garlic sauce. Mwah chef's kiss.“
“Always wanted to visit Chicken Maison and this was at the Redondo Beach location. My mom is pretty picky and she really loved the food! Great variety - salads, wraps, soups, rotisserie chicken, beef kabobs , garlic sauce.. great portions and nice service. Highly recommend.Vegetarian options: Lots of vegi options - Rice, Coleslaw, Salad, Stuffed Graped Leaves , Pita Bread, Soup, Wraps, etc!Parking: parking in the shopping center.“
“This is what it’s all about. Nile, the owner, is there on the daily and has been for 23 years with his staff pumping out good vibes and delicious authentic food. I love to see a locally owned and operated place killing it the way they do.“Best falafel in the country” with spices sourced directly from Jordan.“
“Got off the airport shuttle and went to this Middle Eastern restaurant in Inglewood close to the airport. It only has a couple tables inside so it's for carryout mostly it seems. Al Hamra has most of the classic favorites. Lots of the good stuff like falafel, hummus, tabbouli, and more. The platters are big and are a lot of food for an okay price. A pretty small place but they have a lot on the menu, and it's better than it looks to be honest. It's not pretty from the outside but it's clean inside. There's the counter to order at, and there's just a few tables. Most people call in orders and get it to go. We were already there so we ate there. It's about $14 for the platters. These are big and come with lots of stuff. I got the Falafel Plate. This comes with hummus, rice, and salad. Good falafel. These were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Ones like these are best. Then I used the pitas to make sandwiches out of these. Convenient place after getting off the shuttle a few blocks from here. It's pretty quick and simple. There's great choices like the falafel for vegans and vegetarians.“
“We arrived on the late side for a Sunday night, but the gracious ladies quickly seated us and brought the menus. We all decided on the kebab plates: 1 chicken, 1 lamb, and 1 salmon! All were cooked to perfection and served quickly. We did decide to add a half order of humus, as well!“
“First time here, we had lunch and we both had the grilled lamb chops plate. Service was very good and friendly. The food came quick and it was fresh and very delicious. Lamb is tasty. Mango Lasi is so good. We will definitely come back!. Area is clean.“
“Good food.Chicken and gyro meat $19.99 (1240 calories) Double Protein. Really good and a lot of food.I shared with my husband and it was pretty good.Hummus original $6.29 (375-940 calories) with veggies. They put carrots. Good carrots.I was expecting variety of veggies but the carrots were really fresh and crunchy.Good music. Perfect volume of the music. Music is one of the most important things when I go to a restaurant. I don’t like loud music because you cannot talk and it is very annoying.Service was really good the cashiers are friendly and fast.Clean tables, good lighting, variety of food. They have plates, salads, pitas, hummus, bowls, sauces and wraps.Del almo fashion center is one of my favorite malls around Los Angeles.Next time I want to try the falafel and feta dressing.Falafel plate costs $14.79 (920 calories)We only spent $28.91 USD for 2 people.Parking: Del almo fashion center has a huge parking lot.Plenty of parking around.“
“Our flight just landed in LAX from DC and we were super hungry by the time we get outta of the airport. Looking for a personal resturant and we tried this place. The food is high quality and staff are very nice and welcoming. Def will try again. Thanks“
“Today was my first time eating at this restaurant, and I loved it. The food, service, and cleanliness are great. I'm definitely coming back!The only issue is that prices should be updated in the menu section inside the store to avoid confusion.“
“Amazing experience, this is the only way I can describe our visit. I ordered the eggplant and my wife ordered the falafel. Food was as authentic as I remember it from my living and visiting the Middle East. we will definitely visit Yalla again.“
“Had a great lunch at Nomad. Food was really good, service was excellent! Definitely want to return with my hubby for dinner and try a cocktail and other things in the menu. Want to also try their Sunday brunch. The menu looks good. The music they were playing was also very good :).“
“This is one of my weekly lunch "Go to's". Always fresh and delicious. The service is top notch and the crew is super friendly! Used to get the gyros and now get the plate with beef. Love that white sauce on top but careful with the hot sauce... It's hot!! I love spice so I mix the hot sauce together with the white sauce on the container lid before adding it to the food for a consistent heat distribution.“
“It's always seemed to me that chain restaurants tend to be best right after they've opened up, and that's definitely the case here. Zankou Chicken is always good but this new location seemed just slightly better than the older ones. The food came out immediately and yet it was hot and fresh, like it had just been made. My only complaint is the complaint I have about Zankou in general, which is their portion size. Their quarter dark meat chicken plates are too small, but a half chicken would be too much (and I don't like white meat anyway, so it would be wasted on me). I always leave a Zankou still somewhat hungry, and that shouldn't happen, not with the prices they're charging. Please, Zankou, offer a three-piece chicken option! Either that, or get bigger chickens! The chicken legs you use are tiny!“
“It was terrible. From the time we walked in it was like what are you doing here. It took them forever to bring a menu & even water it was as if they didn't want us there. Then the waitress trick us to order this meal for 2 people which cost us almost $80. which we split the bill. The manager didn't help at all because we call her to the table. We were the only black people in the place.“
“Modern interior yet cozy and warm.Service is excellent - attentive but not hovering or rushing you to make selections.Menus are well balanced with a variety of classic and new combinations of favorites and more importantly everything was delicious - great cocktails, yummy pastas, fish and juicy steaks + short ribs!!!“
“If I could give the service 10 stars I would. This place is seriously amazing. The staff Austin and Leo are ALWAYS friendly and helpful. Wonderful dishes. Great price. Perfect service. What more can you ask for in a restaurant? Need to check this place out in downtown Long Beach asap!!Parking: Park at the Hubb for the first two hours free !“
“I ordered their rice plate with salmon kabob with a choice of three sides, hummus, vegetables, and tomato and cucumber. They gave a pita bread that was the thickest I’ve ever had. It definitely seems like everything is home made here and it was so delicious too!!! Even their fries are freshly sliced and delicious. Customer service was exceptional. Their tree is so cute too! This place is definitely added to my list of favorite eateries in the area!“
“I’ve been meaning to stop by this place for years. I’m kicking myself for waiting so long. First, the place is so welcoming and open. I remember when it was a KFC and I cannot believe how great they made it look. The staff was awesome! When I walked in they were joking around with each other like pals! Back and front staff! It’s rare to see such a positive team feeling like this! The manager was also very welcoming and gave great suggestions and was incredibly friendly and helpful. I don’t know what these negative reviews are talking about. The portions are great, and you get more for what you pay. The meat was quality white chicken breast meat which is no surprise because they have a carniceria on site! The meal felt homemade. The salad was fresh and the hummus tasted like it was made that morning. Great experience! Im definitely making this a regular spot!“
“We have ordered here multiple times and are always satisfied with how the food is, but the service is top notch.We have spoken with multiple people who are so kind, but Raja was one of the people that helped us as well. Due to my long commute he always helps time my food order to my arrival.It helps me make sure i can have a healthy meal, and a tasty one when i get home. I cant appreciate this place more.Parking: If you cant park here, you dont own a car“
“Its almost authentic only if it was prepared and sold by an Iranian chef then I would consider it authentic persian foodIts good food and reasonable pricing compare to what you pay for a burger these daysThe koobideh I wish it to be a little juicier and not burned the reason is missing one key ingridientThat is why I called it non authenticThe rest is fantastic.“
“I generally order Uber eats for my mom and have it delivered, but today, not only had her order delivered, but on the way home, I stopped with my wife and had lunch at the Yellow Vase in Rolling Hills. My wife had the Turkey Club Panini, and I had the California Omelet. My wife had a cappuccino, and I had a black coffee and OJ. The place is quaint and pleasant and the staff is very kind and professional.Recommended.“
“I was craving dullet and none of the Ethiopian restaurants near me offer this dish, so I made the trek to Inglewood. The parking lot is not that big, but we managed to find a spot. The restaurant is located on the second floor.The interior is spacious but very plain appearing. Service was average. There was the typical attempt to offer only bottled water when asking for water to drink. The menu is not that big either, though prices are lower than other Ethiopian restaurants.What stood out to me was the delicious dullet (quite a large portion) and the homemade injera. The injera here was darker than other places, and tasted absolutely lovely. The veggie combo was also good, though I wish it came with more than four items.Overall, tasty food, and I will be back for more dullet!“
“The customer service is exceptional! The cook and guy who helped us at the register were very nice & gave us recommendations. The food itself was some of the most delicious plates I have tried. I got the number 9 & the lamb chops. Salad was fresh! All meats cooked to perfection & juicy. Most places I've tried are very dry but not this place. The spicy potatoes are AMAZING! Not spicy but very tasty Will definitely be going back.“
“Ok so the flavor of the food here is so good!! Today I ordered the tri tip shawarma and my only complaint is that it wasn't bigger it was a very flavorful and refreshing wrap so many flavors going on here and it was just so great. The fries also had a great crunch even after I drove back to work and they got a bit cold, I can say they were still pretty dang good. Also wish I had a bit more fries. When entering I was greeted by the employee or owner I'm not sure and he had the football game on which completely made the time there waiting so much more enjoyable. The vibe Made me feel like I was at home watching the game waiting to eat. We talked a little bit about the game and he had me out in about 5-7 mins I love the quality of the food here!“
“love this place, food always makes my body feel amazing afterwards, I'm going to be coming by a lot more to get my summer body ready, keep it up guys!!!Vegetarian options: there is alot, maybe like 15 from what i saw. its the best Mediterranean healthy food aroundKid-friendliness: really friendly staff mostly highscool and college students with good behaviorWheelchair accessibility: everything is wide and accessible from what i saw“
“This is the best location. In my humble opinion, Belmont heights is the one most worth going to because of the overall service, portion, and taste. You can share a plate with someone or be super full off your own. I've gone to every location by the way. I first had Green Olive some years back at a meeting. They got catering from here and when I tell you I had one bite and ran to our director and asked where the food was from! I love Mediterranean food and the flavors experienced here were incredible. My favorite thing is ordering some chicken tawook and adding some veggie skewers, which is not on the menu but doable ;) And I truly can't pick between the garlic and jalapeño sauce. They're both so good and I can NOT eat my food without them both! Their pita bread is also sold by bag and it's super cheap!! I think it's a dollar. Like literally a dollar and it's on a stand by the exit. Parking is awesome, they have a shared lot of street parking is on a great area of Long Beach and won't be a hassle. One of my favorite things is getting takeout here and eating it at the Colorado lagoon to watch the sunset. Don't tell anyone OK? I don't want it to get crowded. Anyway, I truly do recommend you try something here. Feel free to go to any of their locations but this one has my heart and I will continue patronizing as long as I'm breathing.“
“We are loving Lakewood! Every since we arrives from Florida we have been welcomed here! After a long trip we decided to stop in Luna Grill and RG the manager was so nice and fed us with two gyro plates with rice pita bread and salad. So yummy!“
“The food is amazingly delicious!! Wow. So glad that this place opened. A MUST try!!! The owner Ben is super nice! He seems to really care about his customers and the quality of his food. I've visited numerous times and my favorite food is the Chicken wrap. The place is small but very clean looking.“
