“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.“
“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.“
“This is one of those places I wish I had tried earlier. Everything we’ve had was fresh, high quality and delicious. I’d suggest ordering at the restaurant so you can meet the terrific people who own the restaurant and experience the care they put into making your meal.“
“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!“
“Lunch was divine. Quiet afternoon. Moussaka tasted like Greece. Taramasalata smooth w hint of lemon. Beet salad was unexpectedly great. First time having it w Greek fare. Patates perfectly marinated, lemon, olive oil, oregano. BBQ chicken spot on - moist, flavorful & chopped up for easy eating. Rizogalo creamy & just right sweet. Stuffed but happy. Highly recommend. Gem to share w fam & friends.“
“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!“

“We came here Easter Sunday because everything else was closed. We didn't expect much but the food was delicious and the woman at the register absolutely makes this place a gem. She was so kind and friendly, and when we decided to eat in, she basically was our waitress too. She was lovely! We'll definitely be back!“
“We stopped by on a Friday night and we're lucky that, due to the rain, it wasn't too busy and we were seated immediately. We were just outside the front door but the space heater was just enough to make us comfortable throughout our meal. My husband has a nut and sesame allergy so we were a bit limited in regards to the Appetizers but we ordered the Spinach Dip made with homemade organic yogurt, spinach and shallots and it came with some Lavash bread and some cucumber and carrots. It was very refreshing and a perfect start of the meal.Their was four of us. Two of us ordered the Koubedeh Kabob plates, one got the Lamb Kabob and one got the Ahi Tuna Sandwich. All of the entrees were very tasty and a perfect serving size. The only complaint is that the brocoli, which was one of a few diffrent veggie sides, were a bit undercooked but otherwise the rest of the veggies were fabulous and the rice (which we found out was unlimited) was perfectly cooked.It was a very nice meal and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Overall 10 out of 10 would recommend.Dietary restrictions: My husband is allergic to tree nuts and sesame and they were very helpful and knowledge in the menu and could easily note what he could and couldn't order. While there were limits to what he could order for appetizers the rest of the menu had a lot of options for him.“
“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!“
“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.“
“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.“
“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 love that placeThe food was excellent they have large choice of mealsI also got an appetizer and a dessert that were great tooThe service was amazing too, the lady who took the order was super nice and explained me everything as it was my first time thereI will def come backThey also have breakfast that looked good ??And it is halal so 6 stars for meThank you“
“I tried chicken maison recently and now I can't get enough. I love their potato salad, rice and garlic sauce is amazing!!!! The service is incredible, friendly employees, clean environment. Quick service, they have exceed it my expectations..“
“Ok… this place is fantastic!Everything was truly wonderful.Burrata and caviar with truffle, grilled octopus salad, delicious branzino, and sizzling ribeye with creamy mashers and jumbo asparagus. Food was EPIC! Hats off to the chefs! But also must mention the warm and sincere staff. Jerry, Ramses, Elliott, were all great! Henri the MOD and operations manager should be very proud! And our server Skyler and her support staff Helardio and food runner (didn’t get his name) really made our evening. The entire staff is really what sets a good restaurant above an average restaurant.Summed up in one word. Synergy! This place has it and you should go there now to see it for yourself! Rock on Paloma!“
“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.“
“Excellent service & very friendly staff - Anthony with a big smile! Food some of the best I’ve had. Paola the chef did everything perfect. Really nice is you get your choice of protein and 2 great sides; any salad, tabbouleh, basmati rice. I’ll definitely be back.“

“Special thanks to Geovanny for always going above and beyond the regular requirements of customer service. He is always super friendly, helpful and brings a positive energy to the place. The food is always cooked to perfection while the taste of flavor never lacks. I this location provides amazing service, atmosphere and food. Thank you Luna grill<3“
“We decided to give this place a try after my neighbor gave them a rave review. We ordered online and the food was ready when we got there. The restaurant is not meant for big gatherings but have enough tables to accommodate small families. Very clean and comfortable. We are pleasantly surprised by how big the food portion is. We ordered the chicken plate, it comes with green salad, and 2 sides. The chicken is so tasty on top the rice along with the pita bread and hummus. I could not finish all the food and even my son has left over for tomorrow! Will definitely go back again to try their beef plate.“
“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.“
“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.“
“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.“
“This was our first time here. The service was fantastic. We got here for happy hour. The cost of the drinks was a selling point. Got the coconut shrimp for a starter. Very good. I had the chimichurri steak and fries. The chimichurri was a bit spicy but very good. My husband had the lomo saltado made with filet mignon. Both dishes were excellent. The restaurant was comfortable but maybe a little loud. Okay for me but my husband has me repeat myself. I'm used to that. We will be back. Definitely hit the spot.“

“A great spot for healthy and delicious Mediterranean food! They're fast but the food is super fresh! Tania makes my orders with care and it always comes out just the way I want. I highly recommend trying them out for delivery or you can also pick up at a ghost kitchen on Sepulveda behind the Sizzler. Food is always consistently amazing when I order and a wonderful choice when you want a healthy, satisfying meal that won't weigh you down! I Reccomend their bowls and Gyro sandwiches ?“
“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!“

“I had the food catered from here and we will definitely be back again. The manager was very friendly and so helpful with my order and sticking to our given budget. She was explaining everything in detail and was able to help me stay within our budget. I specifically requested the meat to be cooked a bit rare since it would be reheated the next day and they did just that. The food was amazing!! The chicken was so juicy not an ounce dry. The steak was super tender and packed with flavor. The garlic sauce is velvety and rich. Wish the greek salad was chopped but it was still good.“

“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“
“Decided to come this way for my new coworkers. Most of them had never had chicken Maison. Everyone. And I do mean everyone loved it! It's a drive away from Downey but well worth it! They had EVERYTHING ready for pick up. Service with a smile and always got some good music pumping! Surroundings were cool! I'll be back again...“
“I ordered online, so the service was on time when I went to pick up my food. Surprisingly, it wasn't busy today around 11:20 am. The store looked clean and the staff was friendly. What I ordered: Gygo plate - 10/10. It comes with rice, salad, hummus, and pita bread. I don't think you can change the sides. Spicy lemon garlic whole chicken - 8/10. I should have paid extra for all dark meat because the white meat was so DRY. The sauce is my favorite. Sides: Orginal hummus - 10/10, so good. Spicy hummus - 8/10, a bit sour. Pita bread - 10/10, so soft! Side salad - 7/10, nothing special Regular potato salad - 1/10. I was SO DISAPPOINTED! I even a large side of this order. It was so so SOUR, too sour! I love lemon flavor, but this was overwhelming sour. Is this how it's supposed to taste??? Is the spicy garlic potato Salas sour as well? It went straight to the trash. I feel so bad. Garlic sauce 10/10. I paid extra for these and it's the best thing ever! Falafel- 5/10. I've had better elsewhere. The flavor was lacking and it seemed salty.“
“An excellent meal was had here by me and the BF. It is owned by a sweet husband and wife and the wife took good care of us. I got the chicken gyro for $10.99 which was delicious and she was not cheap about the tzatziki sauce and asked if we wanted extra, when does that ever happen? Answer, never! Double and triple bonus that the meat is seasoned so well. Boyfriend got the beef and the lamb plate and it was divine. The meat melts in your mouth and it came with a massive Greek salad. It was soo good. I will get that next time too (minus the onions). $14.99. They also told me, as someone with garlic sensitivity, to avoid the hummus and the chicken kabobs. I can do that! The restaurant has about 3-4 tables inside and is very quaint. Also we got homemade chocolate chip cookies for dessert and they were very good. We will definitely come back!“
“The place is nice and clean. The workers are very nice!!! The 2 guys that were there today deserve 5 stars! Helped me order and were very welcoming when I said that it was my first time there. Would definitely come back again!! The food was very delicious too!! I had the peta pocket with the chicken kabob with my sides and it was THE BOMB. Couldn't even finish it all in my own. I had to save the rest for a snack later. Idk why I haven't tried this place before.“
“After I quit using SeaSide Palace on Sepulveda Blvd in Torrance, I discovered Fiesta Grill on Carson St. In Torrance. Their foods are fresh and authentic and are reasonably priced.I spoke with Frank the owner of Fiesta Grill and I congratulated him for his excellent customer's service.I am sure you will have the same experience as I did.A good Samaritan Mike Harsini.“
“We came here for dinner. When we arrived, they seated us at a very, very low table (like to our knees) right next to the crowd at the bar. They didn’t have any other tables to switch to, and because of the noise and the fact that we wanted to eat real food, we considered leaving. We decided to stick it out and thankfully the food made up for it!!! We ordered the eggplant, the potatoes, the buffalo cauliflower, the olives, and the octopus. I would highly recommend ALL of them, except maybe the octopus. It was good and I liked the combination of flavors, but it was more large meaty chunks of octopus when I typically prefer more thin and crispy. Overall, the food was fantastic.“
“Always hesitant to try salmon somewhere famous for something else (chicken) but this kale salmon salad was amazing. The salmon is so fresh and what generous portion! Might be my new favorite although you can never go wrong with her rotisserie chicken here! My husband always gets it with a baked potato and it's always perfect! I prefer this out of all of them because everyone is so kind and generous here and they always are so friendly!! Great place to eat healthy which is hard to find nowadays!“
“When I was growing up in Buffalo, it never dawned on me that someday I would find a neighborhood Egyptian restaurant. But here I am in LA enjoying Tut's. The portions here are large, the food is tasty, and the staff is friendly. Try one of the combo plates for 2 - you'll have leftovers!“
“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!“
“Smallish, newer place. Bright with lots of windows. Medium-sized parking lot in the back. Open kitchen where you can see the schawarma on their spits. You order at the counter and they bring your meal to you. Chicken schawarma has been juicy and tasty, some of the best we've tasted. Hummus is creamy. I tried the lamb gyro. It was good, tasted like a lot of sage in it. Generous portions. We usually have enough leftover for another meal. A friend ordered a salad and it was big. She ate about a quarter of it for lunch. Her boyfriend got a wrap, and it was more like two wraps! Free water that is infused with lemon and cucumber.“
“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“
“Been in Pedro for more than 12 years & never tried this place. My son loved it & I had every intention of eventually trying it out. My daughter came for a visit & chose this place to eat. She ordered the chicken wrap & absolutely loved it! She said it was flavorful & fresh & that the lady who runs it was really sweet & friendly, she even got a hug! I didn't get anything this time, but I will definitely be giving them some business in the near future!“
“Yo! I ain't gonna lie, Nick the Greek is my new go-to on the Westside. Like, a lot of Greek and Mediterranean food around, doesn't possess this. They are to the point without trying to do any extras. Look, my first time trying it was crazy. I originally just had a sweet tooth and wanted to get a Baklava. I came in and seen the food they were serving mixed with the ambience, I knew I was coming back. I order the mixed bowl, with chicken and gyro with the rice and salad, and I think I feel in love. The service was great and to be honest I came back the next day and experienced the same as the day before. If you like Greek and Mediterranean food, Nick the Greek serves it's purpose, you will not be disappointed.“
“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.“
“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!“

“first time here. ordered the Flat Iron Steak Shish Kabob. I love that they give you the option for the doneness of the meat. I asked for "medium". it was perfect to my liking. the marinade was perfect. packaging was impeccable, salad was packed separately. The grilled onion was amazing. caramelized to perfection above the flame. I wish they gave some sumac with the order by default. I don't know if they have sumac upon order... I didn't even think about it, until I got back home with the order. good thing I keep a stash of sumac packs :) highly recommend the steak kabob.“
“Omg so happy we found this place. There's nothing I don't love about it: service is amazing, staff very friendly and helpful ( Mike's positive and happy attitude is contagious); the food...omg the food - the plates are pretty big and you can seriously feed two people with one serving. Everything is very tasty and fresh. Glad they finally opened something delicious close to home :-)“
“QUITE LITERALLY one of the best hidden gems in LA. The chicken skewers are jumbo and the sides are FIRE. The mac and cheese is just as good as the best I've ever had. The brussel sprouts are solid.One of the BEST values out there. And hidden in a super market. Whoda thunk?Vegetarian options: Brussel sprouts. Vegetable medley.“
“I love Rutt's Hawaiian Cafe. The staff is so nice...But I come for the foooood! Especially the MEATS! This is the best BBQ, Hawaiian or otherwise, for the BEST prices and the biggest portion. I love them. P.S., they also do great takeout for the same big-portion-for-small-price-PLUS-sauce experience!“

“I usually get delivery to our office form this place quite frequently. I finally decided to come here during lunch to dine in. The food has always been pretty good for delivery, but it is definitely even better in person. I got their lunch special chicken kebab with side order hummus. The food was so good I finished the whole plate. Food came out at good timing. Service was good. If I have time to swing by in person, I'll come here for lunch. Otherwise, delivery is still good. The salad is super fresh and crisp. The place is small but clean.“
“A solid place for a quick meal. Clean and friendly with small parking lot in rear. We had a few different platters and liked everything. Hummus was fresh and shawarma was delicious. Happy to have another option in RB. Pricing pretty standard these days.“
“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!“
