Staff is very friendly and the food is well made. Apparently the get their spices from overseas.

They’ve closed due to crappy food and no customers

Fresh, delicious food, a great wine selection, and an intimate, firelit patio make this one of our Hollywood go-to's. At first I was mad that the currywurst place was gone. I loved that frickin' currywurst place. But Running Goose has exceeded my expectations upon every visit so far. Highly recommend this place for a date spot, or a weekend patio hang. Can't wait to go back.

The food was light while also hitting the spot perfectly. The sand which was delectable. And the owner was so nice he gave us extra fries and waters on the house! Would highly recommend!

This place is awesome for lunch! I've been twice, and the Chicken Shawarma wrap is amazing. Really flavorful. Street parking on this part of University is super easy. The owner is lovely. The inside is cute--small but comfortable, clean and inviting.

Great cozy little place on University Avenue, to grab a bite or dine in. Food is really delicious, and plentiful. Philly Sandwich war really tasty, meat fresh and well done. Ton of French fries to go along(could not finish) and choice of drink from fridge, many healthy options, not sodas only. Service is very friendly and hospitable. Definitely a nice place for family dine-in.

Very nice man who runs this quiet delight across the street from the Holiday Inn. The food is authentic and well spiced, the sauces are on point as is the rice which is proper.

Finally, I have made it here! Wished this place would specify what kind of cuisine they offer, just for the purpose of authenticity and the kind of traditional seasonings to expect. However the menu seems to have more than just one cuisine, so guess it makes sense that way. Regardless, the food is delicious! Freshly made to order with high quality ingredients, which contributes to all the great flavors. The owners were so nice to my friend and I. We arrived minutes before closing and were able to dine in without any attitude... Very much appreciated!! Overall, Genuinely happy to have made the drive, and i will definitely be back to try something else on the menu!

I stumbled across this little hole in the wall place as it is on my well beaten path. I was a little hungry soon after it opened but probably more curious than anything. I am a cheapskate and often find I can make better tasting food at home for less if I really want an excellent dining experience. Intrepidly I checked out the menu - It had lots of things I liked on it but I still was weary about spending money so I settled on the cheapest thing on the menu - a halal non pork BLT. I asked How can you have a BLT without BACON? They said it is made from BEEF. My expectations were low. After a short wait my food was ready. I took it to a table and ate. As I remember it was a little greasy, but grease is kind of what makes bacon bacon. With the first bite I was impressed. Each bite I took led me to the next and I was finished with the sandwich in only a few blinks of my eye. Having just opened the owners were very generous and kind and threw in a small portion of french fries at no cost. After I was very satisfied with my snack I went over and talked with the female business owner. She told me that she was from Puerto Rico and her husband was from, I think Palestine. An interesting and unusual mix. It's almost 3 months since I ate this sandwich and I still think about it. I haven't been there since but I know they are still there since they are on that beaten path of mine. Actually, I sounds so good, I think I'll go back right now and have another.

This place is Amazing. I'm not sure what the origin is but best rice I have ever had outside my home. Wow, top notch. I got the Shish tawook entree which came with small cut up pieces of grilled chicken with a white cream sauce on top and that amazing rice and fresh salad. Wow. I will definitely visit when I'm back in town!!!!
