“The Grain Cafe in Culver City on Venice blvd did it again ! Every time I try something different,,, and let me tell you , they never disappoint. I ordered for delivery it was a wet burrito in green sauce ! I love the vegan chicken ! Everything is delicious . Also the guy who answers the phone is always so pleasant, courteous, and professional. For someone that is going vegetarian, I always find it easy to eat something I am craving without the meat . Thanks guys“
“First I want to say that the customer service was on point! I felt welcomed and heard which is a big deal. I don't eat meat - just fish and when I told the guy making my food that, he was so nice about changing his gloves and taking the precautions that made me feel comfortable. That's a big deal for me because there are places that are very rude and take offense to me addressing their cross contamination practices. Anyway for the food, my wrap was so delicious! It tasted fresh and had a lot of veggies which I appreciate. It also came with some garlic fries which I wasn't expecting and they were bomb! I got a wrap and fries for $13 bucks smh that's unheard of this day and time AND it was delicious and fresh... I will definitely be back!! Only thing I wish I had was some spicy tahini sauce to pour on my wrap, that would have been a game changer forreal.“
“Food and service was excellent, highly recommend!My sister and I live in SD but were in Santa Monica for the day and stopped here for lunch. I got the cobb salad and my sister got the West Coast wrap and both were excellent. We both also got the Ginger Turmeric Lemonade which we couldn't rave enough about. We loved the soft hits of the ginger and turmeric, not overpowering, and it wasn't too sweet like other lemonades.Overall, the food was excellent and I couldn't say enough about how great the service was.I wish there was a location in SD so we could stop by for lunch more often but we'll definitely make sure to stop by again when were up in Santa Monica.“
“Bomb shwarma spot! Highly recommended. The wraps are filled with meat and delicious veggies. The sauces are very tasty as well. The size of the wraps are big and could probably feed two people. They also have dumplings that looked really good which I will probably try next time I'm there. Add jalapeños, it gives the perfect spice to the wrap.“
“Insanely good restaurant with really good service and an extremely tasteful decor and music. Great atmosphere, it seems like a family owned restaurant. The food is phenamenal, I have been coming here for a decade, quality has maintained a high level.“
“This is the best shawarma place EVER!! I don’t usually write reviews but this one’s worth it! The chicken shawarma and beef pita is absolutely amazing and delicious. And if you add fries right inside your shawarma it’s like so yummy I can’t even describe! You will not find shawarma like this anywhere in LA!!P.S. couldn’t take proper picture because was too busy eating my shawarma“
“Meals and memories are made here at Bianca’s deli. Bianca’s deli (est 1983) is a small Mediterranean deli cafe in East Hollywood. They serve fresh, healthy salads, wraps, sandwiches, panini and pasta. Furthermore, they offer good breakfast and coffee. They provide exceptional service and food. I came here over Lunch and ordered a Grilled chicken salad and a Pasta Primavera. Food was fresh and satisfying; portions were abundant for their modest price. Staff were assiduous, caring and professional.Overall, I enjoyed their service and food. I highly recommend this deli.“
“I came in today in a full blown hunger meltdown I was welcomed and accepted by the sweetest man who pretty much held my hand through the menu and helped me pick out some things for me to scarf like an actual goblin. IM SO HAPPY I stumbled across this place. It was delicious from the wraps to the grape leaves and even the hummus!!! Thank you so much random sweet man. 10/10“

“This is such a cute spot, I had my reservations, as I am a neighbourhood resident and I had heard not-so-great stuff, but upon going in for my first time, I was recommended a fantastic shake, and I also got a wrap. The boys, both working the counter and the back were the sweetest people, the service was fast, and the food was fantastic. Honestly, I can't give this place enough praises. 10/10“
“First time here. I got two meals and already had the first one today for lunch and sooooooo delicious! The representative this morning recommended me one of the meals and I just have to say the food is really good and the representative was helpful and I appreciate her help!“
“I visited this place about a month ago and I couldn't believe how nice the employees were. So I had to come back to make sure it was real and let me tell you... I have never been in a place with such a nice service. They go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable. They provided my friend and me with an extension cord to connect our laptops... TWICE! They helped us with water, made suggestions to make my sandwich better, they have nice vegan options and the coffee is pretty good. Today it was a bit cold outside and they turned on the heater for us. I can't recommend this place enough!!!“
“My son was craving shawarma so I chose this spot because of their ratings. The place was very clean and I liked how it was bright and very open! My son had already ordered and paid. I wanted a drink and paid cash. The gentleman preparing/cooking our meal was also the cashier. He accepted my cash (wearing gloves already) and placed in the register. He then proceeded to pick up a cucumber wearing the same gloves that he handled money with!!! I was fuckin appalled!!! I was like, " You better change your gloves!! You just touched money!!" Wtf!! How gross!!! Jayson and I discussed how even though the pandemic was a clear eye opener on how poor hygiene was another factor in invading someone's personal space! He was truly doing so, and I had to put on the brakes real quick!! The cook/cashier continued to complete our order. He was probably pissed off, but this is my food you're preparing and I would expect you to prepare my meal as you'd prepare your own! So I got the small beef shawarma plate. You have to specify if you want rice or fries. Later on I remembered to ask for fries, otherwise they'll give you rice. I gave that up for lent. The plate was much larger than expected! The cucumber salad was delicious. The hummus was good, but a little grainy. Perhaps it needed to be puréed a bit more. The shawarma was so soft and tasty, but the sauces were on point!! Both the garlic sauce and house sauce complimented each other! Fire I would have loved to have given 5 stars But well, you know!“
“Excellent from start to finish. Cozy little bistro serving excellent grilled meats and Mediterranean sides. The lamb chops were tasty, tender and flavorful especially when paired with the smoky velvety babaganoush. The chicken shawarma wrap was also a hit as was the succulent salmon.“
“My family and I really enjoy eating here. Jake took our order and Juan helped out with the yummy sauces. Oh man that garlic feta is something special!! The food is good, the service is good and it’s a very clean restaurant. Happy to come back soon!“
“Kate gave exceptional customer service and made a great wrap. As a Realtor, I witnessed firsthand that her loyalty and decisiveness are indicitative of having a strong professional acumen. I can see her supporting the company in regional pretty soon, since I can see the hallmarks of people. Thanks, Wrapstar! Someone's moving up, and I hope the company hires more people like Katy.“
“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.“
“New favorite place! Super tasty and fresh. We had the Shawarma wrap and Gyro plate with hummus, baba ganoush, tzatziki and greek salad. Great music and atmosphere. Super friend staff and easy street parking. We can’t wait to go back and try more!“
“I've started a subscription order from Everytable and I pick it up at this location in Hollywood every Monday. I have to say, for the price I was very skeptical. Other meal services I've tried are twice the price. But it turns out, this place is the real deal. The food is high quality and tastes great. And the staff that I've encountered at this location have all been extremely nice and helpful.My only complaint--and it's really more of a suggestion--is that I wish they'd offer more "high protein" options, even if they have to be a little more expensive. I think they'd be a hit, especially here in LA. In the meantime, at least they do offer salmon and chicken breast a la carte to supplement any meal.Other than that, this place is practically perfect for me and my lifestyle, not to mention their mission to make affordable, quality food accessible to everyone is about as noble a pursuit as I can think of, especially in the ridiculously wealth-stratified Los Angeles area.“
“Delicious food, but…(and this may be because I’m from Texas where everything is bigger) … but the size of a single skewer of Koobideh for around $20 was questionable at best. Granted, it’s LA and things are just more expensive these days, but Shrinkflation Kabab isn’t quite in line with the Iranian culture of true hospitality IMO.Make the skewers thicker and charge more if you have to! The flavor is great! It’s juicy! Give us more! We will pay more for it!That said, a single skewer of top quality Koobideh meal in Houston is around $16 and it would run circles around any kabab in California. That does make me biased because Houston has the best Persian food in the western hemisphere, but that doesn’t mean any Koobideh should be that small. 4 hours later and it feels like we didn’t have lunch despite spending $50 on two skewers of Koobideh.Good service, good atmosphere, but the food quality needs to be stepped up to be competitive and worthy of high commendation, especially for someone visiting from Houston.So far, Houston 1 - 0 LA“
“When my business partner bit into the kebeh that we ordered he made a face of delight that I’ve never seen him make before. I laughed out loud. He said, “This is the best kebeh I’ve ever had” and I said, “I can tell!” He was right. What a beautiful experience it was to dine at Sumac. This place is special. This isn’t just authentic Lebanese food, it’s curated recipes from Lebanese Mom and Grandma and Great Grandma, or at least that’s what I imagined. I’m already craving more Babaganoush topped with pomegranate seeds. The chicken shawarma sandwich was fresh and tender and delicious. The owner Eli and staff are lovely and welcoming. I can’t wait to try other items on the menu in the future. Today I just wanted my favorite Lebanese comfort food items and I succeeded in getting them. Easy parking, patio, bar, good vibes all around. I loved sitting in the window and looking at the flowering geraniums just on the window sill. It’s the details.“
“Amazing service and always such good food. I gotta callout Silvino though for his incredible service.Silvino is one of the nicest - most helpful employees I've ever come across in Los Angeles.Thank you Silvino for being so patient, kind, welcoming, and warm! Looking forward to stopping by this location again“
“Today was a challenging day until I stopped by to pick up my takeout order. Unfortunately, I made an error and ordered the incorrect meal, which was frustrating. Maria recognized my distress and went above and beyond to rectify the situation by correcting my order. I greatly appreciate her kindness, which significantly improved my day.“
“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.“
“I saw them on Yelp and made a beeline for them as they were only a few blocks away. How have I lived here for 10 years and didn't know of this wonderful eatery this close to me. Their portions are healthy and variety is scrumptious. Thank you Yelp for recommending:)“
“I was shopping all day and was famished. I wanted to keep shopping so I decided to get something that I could walk around with. All over the Hollywood shopping complex, there were pictures of these taquitos in a cup with guacamole so I had to check them out.I went over Tacos Neza which is tucked in the corner of the mall. It was closing time but the staff was super nice and still served me. I told them I wanted to walk and eat and they said this taquito dish would be good for me.Even though the place was closing people were still coming to enjoy the food and ambiance. I walked throughout the shops with my taquitos which were a little too crunchy for my taste but still good and the guacamole was delicious. I will definitely be back here next time I'm shopping. See for yourself.“
“I think goop is pretty on par with what reviewers say. I really liked my salad. I felt like the ingredients were fresh and unique and tasty. I felt like the salad was kinda high priced to then have to add a protein in this case. Some come with protein but without my added protein the salad would have felt a bit bare. It was definitely tasty. It's takeout only. They do have a patio to enjoy your food on though. I wish they offered free water inside. A worker gave me some but I think it was supposed to be for the workers and not guests but because I asked she gave me a cup. So if that's the case, water would be nice but overall I had a good experience.“
“I love it here. The food feels healthy. The staff are always sweet and helpful. Really, I have no complaints. Their salads and chicken dishes are very tasty. I don't know how they do it. Their chicken is very soft. The dressings that come with the salad always pairs well. The taste can't be explained. The flavor profiles are complex. Their cookies are bomb, too.“
“The food was just absolutely incredible! Healthy, so many options and the portions are great! The staff always with a smile & very charismatic and kind. They treat you very special. The whole place has good energy & extremely clean. One of my new favorite healthy spots on the go!“
“Always loved coming here with my family and getting the family meal or the plates. Now I like to get the bowls as it has rice, meat, and two sides. Comes with a garlic sauce and one more sauce you get to choose. I get the hot sauce. Always parking in the lot. It is free valet but def tip“
“Food was awesome. Service was great. I went close to closing time and they didn’t have any rotisserie chicken anymore which is phenomenal, so I was a bit disappointed.Like anything else in downtown LA, parking sucks for this location.Vegetarian options: Falafel are good and so are all their sides.“
“Weekday lunchPlenty of people on the outside tables and a continuous (I mean continuous) stream of people either walking to driving to pick up their orders…The definition of LA fast casual in my opinionI ordered in person after checking the menu and got the Melrose which was a wrap with chicken, avocado, cheese, greens, tomato & mayoThat’s it plus a side of Italian dressing.It’s so simple yet so good!!I also had their homemade lemonade which I recommend and I found a couple extra chicken wings in my to go bag when I finally sat down to eat which was a definite plus!!I’m gonna have to come back to try the 91 or the Caesar wrap….“
“Through DoorDash I ordered the Chinese Chicken salad and that was the best CC salad. It was hearty and it was presented very nicely. This was my first time trying and I will definitely be ordering this again.Also, the lemonade and cookies were delicious.?“
“This place is excellent & delicious food!Especially a huge shout out to the manager, Mr. Pedro, “The Cowboy”, such a gent he is. Always respectful and goes out of his ways to help.The entire staff of this Wilshire location is utterly professional.“
“First time and it sure won’t be the last! It was simply excellent, very fresh ingredients and the staff were all friendly and engaged! Highly recommend simply salad.Vegetarian options: Salad options, many key qualities to choose from!Kid-friendliness: Healthy Option for children! Go GREENWheelchair accessibility: Easy walk in, wide doors for easily accessibility“
“I'll have to make another return here to 'Every Table,' Los Feliz, Los Angeles, CA., some time soon but was just a quick restroom stop. Now that I'm writing this review, doing so actually made me realize I bought a box of Lemon Pepper Chicken salad, and that box is still in the car. Luckily, it was raining in Los Angeles, CA earlier today when I was driving this area, so I don't think the food would have spoiled. I better place that in the fridge. Cashier was very friendly: I asked if all boxed items sold were readily cooked since it was my first time here, he took time to answer all my questions. I was literally just in for a quick restroom break walking back to my car. I'll have to stop by to take more pics next trip. This cafe was kept extremely clean throughout. They sold mostly Vegan dishes to-go, ready-to-eat dishes if you have immediate access to a microwave, I'll be back again to try a drink or two. Thanks for your convenience!!!! Cya next time!!!!“
“Unassuming and friendly little cafe just off the Venice Beach boardwalk - went there on a whim and so glad we did! Best vegan tacos I have ever had, and the acai bowl was delicious. Prices were reasonable, staff was super friendly, and this is the kind of little place every neighbourhood wants for their own. Definitely hope to come back for one more taco before we leave.“
“11:08 Stopped in when they first opened. Found it a unique and nutritious option for takeout in Santa Monica. It's very clean and the gal working there was very nice and very knowledgeable about the different dishes they offered. Been back a few times since and have enjoyed both the entrees as well as salads. Everything is already prepared and ready to go. So convenient when you don't what you're hungry for or haven't been to the market in awhile! There's plenty of items to choose from and so far we haven't been disappointed. I'll try to remember to take some pictures next time I'm there. Definitely recommend checking it out!“
“What's there to say?!?! Everytable has EVERYTHING!!!! This place is great for on the go healthy choices, they have sooo much to choose from. This place has great coffee smooth and robust, coupled with my favorite Cherry Corn meal cookie is the perfect pick me up. Later in my day I can swing in again and pick up a granola parfait and there Chicken Pesto on ciabatta for lunch. I enjoy the cafe atmosphere if I want to get away from work; and the employees are always warm and welcoming. So thanks Evertable! And to May & Harry you guys are the best! Keep up the good work!“
“Love Twist & Grill! I was very sad when they closed during the pandemic and I'm glad their back open! I've only ever had their ceasar salad wrap (1x) and Philly wrap (2X). While I like both, the Philly wrap is my favorite of the two. Such fresh ingredients and tender meat you can't go wrong! Give them try! I recommend!“
“I’ve been coming/Ordering to/from CCC since 2010 and the quality of the food and the service has been always top notch!! If you’re looking for a whole variety of healthy alternatives CCC is the place to go. I recently ordered from the catering menu at the Westwood store and they have the best combinations of delicious wraps, rotisserie chicken and the best side dishes ( that broccoli pasta y the roasted potatoes are so delicious) for a job meeting and everyone raved about the food. Finally I’d like to comment about the SERVICE. They are always friendly and willing to make you entire satisfied! The place is always immaculate clean! CCC is the best place for great, healthy and inexpensive food!Alex Nataren“

“Our group arrived early for an event we booked that was located at the Santa Monica Place Mall, so we decided to grab a quick bite first and ordered something from here. I got the avocado toast and a berry acaí smoothie. Both were delicious! The staff who prepared our order were also very helpful. I asked if they were able to add eggs on the toast but she explained that they could not since they only have a grill. Either way the toast as it was was satisfying. I'd go here more often if I lived nearby, however I'm miles away! I'm glad I got to try it though, and I definitely recommend them if you're in this area and are looking for something fresh and healthy!“
“I'll Be BackThank you for kindly responding to my rant. You're correct. We all have off days, and I'm going to trust you will return to the place I love.Be Well & Kind2.6.24 Rant:Usually, I love this place, but NOT today. I may as well have swung by Ralphs for a bag of lettuce. There is literally no more than a teaspoon of the toppings I requested. Seriously, did corporate come and slap someone's hand, cuz this bowl is 95% lettuce? I don't see the red peppers I asked for; there's a sliver of ginger and onion, 3 cranberries, and a smidgen of broccoli. The two stars are only because this bowl of mostly grass is fresh.I plan to give you another try in the future, but I'm going to go back to eating at Sweetgreen if this is how you plan to operate moving forward.- Feeling SimplySad and Disappointed“
