“This restaurant has close to 40 years history of continuous operation in, arguably, one of the most competitive market for Chinese foods in the USA. It's due to a combination of high quality of foods and unique niche market segment (Islamic Chinese foods).“
“We highly recommended. We’re coming here almost three years now . From high quality food up to customer service is the best by far in comparison. No where in Pasadena restaurant I can go for Mediterranean restaurant but “Mediterranean Grill” only. We keep coming back .Excellent and beyond expectation “
“Very surprised by the quality. Ordered the ground chicken kebab (koobideh) and the white meat chicken kebab. The flavor and quality was great. Getting chicken Koobideh to be flavorful is an uphill battle since it’s just ground chicken. This was beautifully seasoned, charred and juicy. Generous portions of beautifully cooked rice with salad and grilled vegetables and pita bread round it all out for a very competitive price in this inflation age. I wish there was an M Grill closer to where I live in Joshua Tree.“
“Ample parking and great Ugyhur food. We tried a variety of dishes and they came out fresh and with generous portions. We tried their big plate chicken which was tasty, the laghman was totally worth the visit as well. The manta was made fresh and delicious. The Ugyhur milk tea was also an experience, salty and buttery. I look forward to visiting again and trying more items.“
“Pizza was delicious! Especially the pesto mushroom one. We also had the KBBQ (award winning), which was good but I thought a little too sweet on the sauce. I expected more from the award-winning pizza. Maybe I had my hopes up too much though.“
“This place is fun. The gyros are piled full of meat. I have visited twice now. The people are nice and the place is clean. The only odd thing is that my fries tasted like fish. I noticed that they offer fish and chips, so you might want to keep the fries and fish in separate deep fryers.“
“This review is long overdue! I had such a great experience at this location. I have been to the Brea location as well and this one is my favorite. The customer service is great and the food is delicious. I like to eat there because it's better fresh and it was nice and clean inside.“
“As entreprenuers we travel the world and the unknown and get to have great experiences with people. Today we visited World Famous Grill in Downey and Hassan was the perfect gentleman. He helped us with a Kabob Combo Plate with hummus, rice salad and pita bread along with their famous Western Burger which was monstrous and delicious. Our daughter was also able to order chicken nuggets and fries as well. We appreciate these small businesses opposed to all the BIG corporations who usually say no to us asking for food. Thank you again World Famous Grill.“
“I tried many Indonesian restaurants in the area before and hands down this Wayang restaurant offers the best and most authentic Indonesian foods. I just love the wonderful combination of flavors and fragrances from the tropical spices used in the cooking. Additionally, the owner Lily is very friendly and attentive to all guests. She makes sure everybody is satisfied. It's always been a great pleasure dining at this place. Highly highly recommended! You should definitely give it a try.Vegetarian options: Gado gado ( steamed veggie salad with peanut sauce, tofu and rice cake) is one of the best vegetarian dishes anybody should try ( whether they're vegetarian or not). So yummy!“
“Incredible food. Absolutely delicious dishes and warm, friendly service. Accommodations for special diets available. Chicken Coconut Curry and Lamb Biryani were excellent. Finished the meal off with Gulab Jaman and Handsome's Spiced Coffee. Will return again and again and highly recommend to all. Thank you, Indian Restaurant and Gary, for your help.“
“After embracing Islam, I worried about missing out on delectable pizzas, especially the Hawaiian variety. However, Big AL'S Pizzeria changed my perspective by offering a variety of halal pizzas that surpass any other pizzeria in flavor. Their wings are the tastiest I've ever had, and I'm confident that anything from this pizzeria will be impressive. A heartfelt BarakaAllahu feekum to the owner, staff, and patrons who contribute to making Big AL'S an exceptional dining spot.“
“This place is truly great. I highly recommend the Chicken Kabob plate. The chicken is juicy, the hummus is perfect and the rest that comes with it is just perfect. The owner is also really kind. He's super grateful which makes want to support him as much as I can.“
“Drove down from van nuys to try this place out with my two younger siblings, and I quote from two 16 year olds.. the most worth it thing ever haha the portions are great Liza made us feel right at home and when u say we were absolutely satisfied with everything you gotta try the asada hot Cheeto fries they are to die for and the lebamex sauce really brings everything together 10/10 you guys would make a killing in the valley Ali!!!“
“Very solid spicy beef noodle soup! It wasn't really spicy but the broth was super flavorful and the meat and vegetables only added to it. The knife cut noodles were abundant and very nice and chewy. It was a pretty good sized bowl. We also tried the beef roll and it was very, very good. I expected it to be greasier because of the pancake and sweeter because of the hoisin but it wasn't. It was perfectly balanced between meat, pancake and the scallions and cilantro. It even came with some chili oil to make each bite extra tasty. We really enjoyed our meal and are glad this place is within walking distance of our apartment. Everyone who worked here was very bright, cheerful and friendly, so the service was great.“
“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!“
“I recently visited Cedar’s Tacos and was thoroughly impressed. We ordered 5 tacos and 2 carne asada quesadillas all halal. The freshness of the ingredients stood out, enhancing the flavor of every bite. Cedar’s commitment to halal options is commendable, and their execution of Mexican cuisine is spot-on. If you're seeking quality tacos and quesadillas, Cedar’s Tacos is a solid choice. Five stars from me without hesitation.“
“My experience at Dave's hot chicken was good. The staff are extremely friendly and social and the atmosphere is warm and exiting with amazing outdoor seating. Me and my peer got a soft drink, fries, tenders, and a chicken slider all of them extra spicy. Extra spicy is like a 7/10 for me (my spice tolerance is kinda mid but better than the average). The fries and chicken were crunchy but the food is quite greasy. Chicken is heavily seasoned. We went finished the food at around 1 pm and our stomachs started hurting. Its 10:35 PM right now and my stomach still hurted. Both had an irritated stomachand I had to take medicine for the pain to go away. Overall, would reccomend to people that can take the spice and are enjoyers of heavily seasoned and greasy foods. However, people who cannot tolerate spice, grease, and HEAAAVILY seasons foods should not come here. Praying for anyone who's stomach gets upset by this chicken ????“
“We came in on a Sunday evening for a small birthday celebration and we had a great time. We booked it for 7 adults but the person who rsvp forgot we had 2 babies with us, but they were able to accommodate our group. There was a wedding booked inside, we were sat outside in their lovely patio, it's a very pretty patio and there's space heaters everywhere. In the quest to be media / tech savvy they have 4 separate QR code menus and they do not link to each other, so there is a drink menu, a dinner menu, a hookah menu and one other menu. That was a bit confusing at first, since everyone initially started off wit ha different menu. But we got the hang of it. it's a pretty big menu, we ordered a combo platter for 4 people and another combo platter for 2 people and a vegetarian sampler. The 4 and 2 people combos are same just sized differently. They come out on enormous metal platter that is placed on a pedestal on your table. The platters came with steak and chicken breast kabobs and then also ground beef and ground chicken kabobs as well (lule? koobideh?) they were pretty juicy and flavorful, they only came with like 2 tiny garlic toums but you can and should request more. Oh and it also comes with like hella pita breads. The rice soaks up the meat juices from the platter and is bomb af. We took home 2 boxes of food, they don't skimp. The alcoholic drinks are kinda disappointing, like the cocktails are all under powered and watered down low on alcohol, but the fruity drinks taste spectacular as a fruit juice drink but not as a cocktail. the quarantini (their take espresso/coffee martini ) is just watered down and doesnt taste like anything. Either get bottles of wine or hard alcohol don't get the cocktails. If you're sitting on the outside patio do be aware that they have hookah service out here, so if you're not down with that you should sit inside. they have live music and dancing as well (we had a senior citizens dinner due to the kids, so we missed it, but I rememeber it being a good time the last time we saw it.) Good spot wouldn't mind returning at all.“
“Excellent food!! Very flavorful and delicious. It’s one of my fav Mediterranean places out here and I am from the Mediterranean area.Also I catered for 10 people for a work event and everyone was absolutely in love with the food!Just a minor recommendation: if they can make it less salty to accommodate people that don’t like too much salt in their food it would be fantastic.“
“My wife and I found the place by googling halal fish and chips decided to give this place a try and very glad we did. The menu was excellent we had chicken and waffles and fish and chips everything was delicious. The brewed African coffee was excellent, only wish we had a few more days to try out everything on the menu. The brothers were warm and friendly to us. Highly recommend.Dietary restrictions: The menu is Halal“
“My mother in law ordered us lunch from here and it was delicious! I've never eaten here before but I'm so glad we found this spot. I ordered the veggie plate and my mother in law had the three skewer combo. I was so hungry and my meal really hit the spot! The rice was amazing! Our order was delivered quickly. I will definitely eat here again!“
“Great Halal Persian place located in Pasadena! Great location , fast service and best of all great food ! Ordered a variety of kabobs , lamb shank , hummus , rice. excellent taste nothing was dry and perfectly grilled. My favorite was the lamb shanks , followed by the kobbideh skewers. Can recommend enough !“
“Tried this for the first time today, and it was absolutely delicious! It's a hidden gem in Pasadena! Highly recommend, the staff was friendly and attentive to my order (it being my first time). Looking forward to returning with friends and introducing them to this hidden gem!“
“Gareth was the best representative of Dave’s Hot Chicken, he answered all questions and did it with a smile. First time eating here and it was amazing, hot, fresh and delicious. Great atmosphere with great music! We will be back several times ?“
