“Such a wonderful vegan oasis in the San Fernando Valley! As locals know vegan offerings in the valley are limited compared with the rest of the city. I am so happy that I found this place I will be coming here often! Great food and atmosphere all around!“

“Excellent food. Really great lamb chops. Yum. And really yummy homemade desserts.“

The falafel made with a perfect crunch & so moist & tasty on the inside, lamb & beef...PERFECTION! Joe, the owner, very soft spoken & humble when given a compliment. Service, EXCELLENT! I read the reviews yesterday & today we had to try it. If I had 3 thumbs 👍👍👍😉😁 Our lunch feast! Excellent!! 😋😋⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“The Lule kabob is very juicy and tender! Full of flavor! Very friendly staff, ready to take your order. Catering services are excellent too. They are closed Sundays, but they may cater food for special events on Sundays is you ask!“

“I love the food is my favorite restaurant“

“What a Great Find! First time there and Junior took time to explain the whole menu to us. He also prepared the Delicious meal! We tried the chicken kabob, Shawarama, rice, Mediterranean salad, and hummus with pita bread. Fantastic meal!!! We also watched him prepare a Wrap which was Huge. We definitely be back!!! This great little place is located in the CVS shopping center on Hollywood Way and Verdugo.“

“My family and I love eating here! The food is always fresh, delicious, and packed with protein while being low in calories, perfect for healthy eating. The team members are always so friendly and attentive, and the restaurant is consistently clean and well-organized. We love taking advantage of the kids-eat-free promotion, but even without it, we find ourselves coming here at least once or twice a week. Highly recommend“

“Stopped in here today and glad we did. This is a very comfortable open air patio restaurant with outstanding food.

My wife had the chicken kabob plate and I had the beef plate. They were very tasty. Even the rice was very flavorful. My favorite was the beef shish kabob. It was tender with really good flavor.

The staff was friendly and helpful.

Overall a great experience!“

“The food and service was excellent and it also has good hookah!“

“ABSOLUTE GEM. We were lucky enough to find Cafe Elegante after a long travel day. Was just dumb luck that we found it but BOY did they delivery.

The staff were unimaginably kind to our weary travelers and provided a truly memorable dinner experience. The soltani and everything else) was AMAZING.

We'll be back many many times...“

“todo está súper rico de verda selos recomindo yummy 😋“

“Very nice meals. Good luck!“

“Came on a Saturday to enjoy Mediterranean BBQ. Staff was amicable, a little slow in serving and taking orders and came to our table with someone else's order. I would highly recommend they do a number system (assign table number to customers for staff to reduce confusion). It was decent food, spices and grilled veggies were good. Chicken was a little thick and hard to cook all the way through those meats. Steak was a bit dry. Seasoned fries and hummus, Pita bread was good. Ambiance was settle, no music or noises. A little pricy but portions are good. Clean establishment. Parking can be a little tight in the parking lot.“

“I ordered the beef combo and the taste was absolutely delicious! I’ve tried many Persian restaurants before, but Olive Paper really stands out. Even the rice is completely different and cooked to perfection. The food is amazing, the restaurant is very clean, and the service is excellent. A special shout-out to the cashier — she’s very kind and professional, and made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend Olive Paper if you want real quality Persian food!“

“Susan is delightful, and the food is FRESH & DELICIOUS....oh, that laffa bread!!!!!!!“

“The food is amazing! I will definitely be going back. If you go for lunch order ahead, they make everything fresh.“

“The best of the best Israeli/Mediterranean kosher food home made and you can taste the diffrence! I cant praise them enough. Try and you won't be disappointed! Amazing!!!“

“Have you ever entered a business and immediately feel like you just walked into your home where family is waiting to greet you? That was the very feeling I had when I stopped by the NoHo Cafe today. I knew the food was good as I used the delivery service before. Today I decided to visit the Cafe and I promise I’ll continue going frequently. The food is delicious but what won me over was the welcome and love you experience when you walk in the door. The staff is amazing... the Cafe has a very “welcome home” atmosphere. The complimentary cup of soup is AWESOME. I sat at a corner table allowing me to do what I love...watch people. As I enjoyed my delicious first meal of 2020 I watched as every person who entered was treated with care and joy. Just like being home the staff will keep checking to see if the food is ok and if you need anything. The NoHo Cafe is a place I recommend to anyone wishing to enjoy a good meal and to experience a “welcome home” feeling. Thank you NoHo Cafe for starting my 2020 with a reminder of the importance of kindness.“

“If I could give this place 10 stars I would. My husband and I love trying new places. We found this place on the hunt for the best khinkalis. We visited the actual store front first. The woman helping us could not have been more helpful, patient, and kind. I do sometimes look a bit Armenian which leads people to assume I can speak Armenian or Russian which is always a good laugh. She made excellent suggestions and gave us a very accurate timeframe of how long it would take to prepare. Since then we have ordered via UberEats 2x more and each time things were EXPERTLY packaged - literally the nicest to-go bag and perfectly portioned condiments. We were blown away. The food itself is so flavorful and the ingredients are high quality and you can tell they take pride in what they do.“

“The food here is really delicious! Everything tastes fresh and full of flavor, and you can tell they put care into how it’s made. The people who work here are super sweet and friendly, which makes the experience even better.
The only downside is that the prices feel a bit on the higher side for a kebob stand. Still, the quality and taste definitely make it worth trying. Overall, great food and great service!“

“Serra is amazing! and so is her food!“

“Great food and friendly staff. Owners greet you and serve!“

“Lemón Zëst is an absolute gem! It's the perfect spot for a satisfying meal that leaves you feeling energized. The menu offers a wonderful variety of light yet flavorful dishes that are ideal for any time of day. What truly sets this place apart is the delicious food that tastes so fresh and authentic. The interior is bright and inviting, with cute lemon-themed decor that gives it a cheerful and refreshing vibe, making it a great place to relax and enjoy your meal. Parking is super convenient, with a lot just around the corner, making it easy to access. If you prefer, there’s also metered parking available right out front, which is great for a quick visit. Whether you’re stopping by for a casual bite or a more leisurely dining experience, Lemón Zëst provides a nice and enjoyable atmosphere. I highly recommend giving it a try!“

“Coffee was delicious! And another time wine was awesome! Michal was attending to us and he was polite and helpful!“

“After the 4th restaurant in Tujunga failed to make good Shawarma, I thought I would have to drive all the way to Glendale for the only good Shawarma I know, that I get from a food truck. I didn't know Shawarma House existed until today. The dine in place is nice and spacious, the service was kind, and for the first time in Tujunga that I know of, this a restaurant that didn't serve dry wraps with no garnishes.“

“Delicious dishes! Everything is recommended! But if you twist my arm, I'd say try the beef or chicken shawarma sandwich.“

“Best burgers in LA... come here at least once a month“

“Most delicious food you can ask for“

“Got there right at closing time with our online order mistakenly scheduled for the next day, and manager Juan and server Vanessa could not have been more gracious and professional in how they handled the situation. They rallied to make sure I got the wrap I ordered for my son, and I am extremely grateful for the team taking the time to make him a delicious meal even after all the food was put away for the night. Kudos and thank you!“

“Nice food, cooperative staff“

“Always a hit for a group meal, date night, catch up with a friend. I've had at least 3 birthday meals (brunch/dinner) between this location and West Hollywood. The flavors/execution of the food is truly top notch, and the decor and ambience is always so cute, warm, and comforting.“

“Food was very delicious and fresh and the prices are very affordable. Stuff were very friendly and helpful, great service 🙏“

“Delicious love coming here“

“The Shawarmins are awesome! Very friendly and cool owners. HEY Guys! It's ME!“

“I was eyeballing this place for months, finally went and got #1 pork chops and it was just as good as I hoped. 2 big pieces of pork, well done, fluffy soft rice, the pepper & tomato were juicy (everthin just needed a little salt). It's a small place with about 10 tables inside. Lady at the front was nice, wait time is min 15min & prices are fair for the big portion. Located on the corner with parking. Will definitely be back to try the beef kabob.“

“First time here and it was so worth it. I got the beef steak plate steak was juicy, rice was flavorful, hummus was tasty, and the pita was soft and fresh. The mango lemonade hit the spot too. Alhamdulillah, I was really happy with everything. Definitely recommend! Plus it's halal. I will definitely be back iA.“

“Omg the most delicious breakfast I have ever had , mr jamshid is the kindest person, thank you always and appreciate your neatness for this wonderful restaurant“

“Wonderful, fresh and yummy meat, and great veggies (potatoes and eggplant). All was well packaged and arrived safely.They delivered to our house which was super convenient as well and included yogurt/cucumber drinks. Overall, great service and nice folks! We'll happily order again!“

“Very friendly and healthy atmosphere me and my guests had a blessed. Amazing food, beautiful hall“

“One of the best 100 meals we've had. If you are traveling between Ventura and Pasadena, a great place to stop. Located in a strip mall, just off the freeway. We shared an Armenian salad and a lamb shawarma. Perfect amount of food for two people. Don't miss this place!“
