Staffing seemed to be an issue as our waiter seemed to be taking care of half the restaurant. Could've been a great meal. Might or might not give it another chance. It's definitely loud in there

The Mediterranean menu at Fennel is simply a cut above the rest! We especially like their pesto hummus with pita wedges as an appetizer... MMMMmmm, delicious! And our kabob platters are always flavorful, moist, and tender. Our OpentTable reservation guarantees immediate seating, and our server was cheerful and attentive. Thank you Fennel for another wonderful dining experience!

Looking for a great Mediterranean meal this is a good place for it. I stopped by Fennel kitchen for lunch just on a whim and I did not regret it. They have some really great entrées. The chicken kabobs were amazing and the salmon bowl was delicious and the service was awesome(Quick and friendly). I will have to visit again when I’m back in the area. If you’re visiting Aliso Viejo or the surrounding cities give them a try. You won’t regret it.
