“Absolutely fantastic food!“

“Tried out your Cerritos location, I lived in LA almost 3years and food especially the kebab wrap was the best by far and I have tried different kebab place’s before in LA. One of the best Kebab place in America, the lamb was moist and very tasty with great flavors, the combination of the hummus, salad, fries combined with the lamb was delicious, the fresh flat bread was soft and crispy on the outside. Add the garlic yogurt sauce wow your tastebuds explodes in your mouth, the food was very lite and not heavy like most kebab place so they got the right balance by using the flat bread and not pita bread that most place use on the wrap Well done this place remind me of a place back home in New Zealand. I give The Kebab shop in Cerritos 10/10 Highly Recommend this place to my friends and family and different locations in America. Will go again and try something different on the menu.“

“I luv this place! I usually order for pick up. I recommend the Chicken Kabob plate with Basmati rice and a Ceasar salad. Don't forget the pita bread! 😋👍“

“Making the most out of this Covid-19 situation for pick-up. Order was secure, exact, and made fresh. They were backed up as when I first got there they were a little short staffed as The Friday Dinner rush was starting, but they kept their cool, their extra hand showed up, and they did well. Just make yourself visible so they got your name assuming you pre-ordered for pick-up. The short wait will not disappoint. And they definitely didn't forget my white sauce - always my biggest fear as it's truly the essence of this place!“

“Cava is literally my favorite! This was my first time visiting this location. The restaurant was clean and well-kept, and the food was fresh and delicious!
Jenny was very friendly and professional, and made the whole experience smooth and welcoming. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Oh my God I've never seen such hospitality. Many stuff on the house. Extremely kind people. Clean place including their bathroom. Reasonable prices. Very delicious authentic Arabic food. We tried the location in Fullerton/Brea area and today we're in Long Beach. Both are excellent but honestly I would give this one a little bit more credit for their customer service. Thank you so much, guys and see you soon“

“Amazing food and customer service!! Everything is always fresh and delicious.“

“Love love love the food , great dinner I fly out here just for this place“

“I love love love love Luna Grill. Service is excellent thank you Nadja very nice good atmosphere and the food is delicious very fresh and tasty.“

“Healthy and Delicious! Luna Grill is my go-to when I want something that is absolutely tasty and makes me feel good. Their chicken, beef, (shrimp at some locations), salads, hummus, and warm pita slices provide a great source of protein, with flavorful Mediterranean seasoning. Their staff is always friendly and helpful - the location I take my elderly mother to always remembers to bring me an extra plate so we can share a platter (there’s plenty) without me asking. Food is made fresh to order in kitchens that always look clean. Get full and healthy here!“

“I ordered catering for my party and people are still talking about how amazing the food was! Pita and Basil is my new go to for any group event. It was easy to text through my order and pickup was a breeze. Thank you pita and Basil for contributing to such a great birthday!“

“Omg I had the best experience today at Cava. It was my first time there and my first bowl was on them . Thank you so much Amy for helping me build my first bowl and the rest of the girls who also assisted as well my bowl was amazing btw . Definitely coming back .“

“This terrific restaurant has been my go-to choice for Mediterranean food in the Whittier-La Mirada area for years. Their plates are pretty to look at and filling. Today my wife and I split a kofta plate and a lamb pita sandwich. The kofta in a particular was wonderfully spiced and tender. Though we did not order it today, they have the best falafel. They also do a great job with large catering orders. We've used them for parties in the past, and our guests always came away happy“

“Best meditarranean restaurant in downtown Long Beach for sure ,this place is new and already getting popular in the area“

“Un buen servicio y la comida rica“

“This is a food truck with several tables available if you want to eat there or you can take the food to go. The food is fresh and delicious. The staff is friendly and helpful. I LOVE this place.“

“My family went out and had a great experience. I had a chicken shawarma plate and it tasted very good. The portions are a decent size and we have leftovers for tomorrow. We also had walnut baclava and it was very good. Not only was the food fantastic but the atmosphere was also great. The owner was very nice and took care of our needs during our visit. Definitely would recommend this place.“

“Amazing food, nice friendly atmosphere!“

“I love the Salmon bowl! I’m attracted to the Kids eat free Mon-Thursday. I like the kids play area. It’s inside or outside. I will be back for many terrific reasons!“

“I got the strawberry banana shake with plant based protein and a couple add-ons (I forgot what they were) and a side of electrolytes before I went to the gym. Everything was great and I'd go back without question, because it's one of very few health conscious smoothie places on Google maps that tends to my high cholesterol and high blood pressure.“

“generous portions and very patient and kind staff! and the food is great too!“

“Amazing place and great people! The taste of the foods were impeccable. We went near the closing time and unfortunately the food served was cold. When I told them about it, they made a new one! Shows how well they care for their customers. Will definitely go back soon. Their Jerusalem bread+chicken shwarma is to die for 😁😁😁“

“Delicious and amazing service!“

“My boyfriend and I had a car issue so we decided to grab lunch randomly from this restaurant and we were not disappointed. it looks like a family business and everyone involved is super lovely and they make amazing food. My boyfriend got a beef wrap and I got a chicken Shawarma wrap. I have never had that quality of chicken Shawarma in my life. The spices and flavors were amazing and overall we had a super nice lunch. Highly recommend stopping by and trying their food. We will definitely be back the next time we are in the area.“

“The Kebab Shop is conveniently located in a shipping area near Trader Joe's with ample parking. Ordering at the counter was a snap and the staff was very professional and friendly helping us with our first visit. We decided to try one of their wraps with lamb and steak. After ordering, the staff invited to try some of their choices of yogurt topping. It was a short wait at our table and then our name was called.

The wrap was good sized and filled with lots of meat. I added dill yogurt topping and took a bite; mm mm, so good! The combination of the topping, lamb and fresh veggies were fantastic.

I really enjoyed it and can't wait to go back.“

“If you haven’t been to Cava yet, let me save you the suspense. From the moment you walk in, the ingredients look fresh, and the entire team moves with purpose and professionalism. You can tell right away they take pride in what they do and that starts at the top with Stavo.

Stavo was so sweet, friendly, and overall amazing. I absolutely loved his personality! You can tell he genuinely cares about both the people he works with and every single guest who walks through the door.

Now let me talk about something that surprised me.

I have never tried their Mint Cucumber drink before because I simply do not like anything minty. Ever! Stavo suggested I give it a try. I asked him directly, “Is it minty?” He confidently told me it wasn’t overpowering and that it’s actually one of their top drinks. And let me just say he did not lie!!!!

The Mint Cucumber was divine. So refreshing. Light, crisp, and perfectly balanced. It wasn’t overwhelmingly minty at all just clean and cooling in the best way. Thank you for that suggestion, Stavo. You converted me!

And while we’re here, if you haven’t had their Pita Chips, you are absolutely missing out. They are the BEST. Perfectly crisp, lightly salted, and dangerously addictive. Make sure you get them when they’re fresh and come right out that’s when they’re at their peak. Trust me on this one.

The food is consistently amazing fresh greens, flavorful proteins, creamy hummus, vibrant toppings everything tastes thoughtfully prepared. But what truly makes this location stand out is the experience. The teamwork. The hospitality. The leadership.

Five stars simply don’t feel like enough. 👏🏾“

“Great ambiance and amazing food. I had a lot of food… falafel, spicy hummus, kafta kabob, tzatziki loaded with veggies, cheese balls, and baklava. All so delicious and fresh. I even loved the fresh pita and dipping sauce that was complimentary. From the manager and many servers, everyone was pleasant and friendly throughout my time there. I went during happy hour so the specials were great during that time. I’m definitely returning to this Mediterranean restaurant for sure. I loved it.“

“Great service food is good“

“They're lentil soup is absolutely delightful. You can't beat their lunch specials, and if your not getting some of their baklava before you leave your outta your damn mind. So good... so authentic. My BF is Turkish and we come here when he needs a little slice of home.“

“We stopped by for a quick dinner, and everything we ordered was delicious. The food was flavorful and had a homemade feeling to it. We got a side of hummus & pita (surprised at how reasonably priced this was!). I got chicken shawarma plate with cabbage salad & tzatziki, and my husband got the kefta plate. Everything was so good! It’s small place, more for a quick bite or take out. Will definitely be back! They offer family size orders also.“

“We ordered this takeout. I must say, even with a 15 minute drive home, the food was delicious. The food was very, very tasty and cooked to perfection. It was a little pricey but worth it.“

“We love love your restaurant!! You have the best grilled chicken ever!! We dine here about twice a month. We love Paris she is a fantastic server. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience every time. ❤️“

“Issac is absolutely wonderful with a wonderful smile ❤️ He helped me with my grandma on understanding the menu & making suggestions on her choices. My mom who got food from the restaurant next door & has never been here, even said she was coming back because she liked Isaac's spirit.“

“First time eating here. The food was fire! So fresh and delicious. The girl taking orders was very helpful and answered all of my questions. I ordered a build your own bowl. My base was French fries and Romaine salad. I got feta cheese to make feta fries. In my salad I kept all of the toppings it comes with from tomatoes, cucumber, pickled onions (the BEST here), and more. I added cilantro jalapeno humus, Caesar dressing on the side, kalamata olives, feta cheese, jalapeño, red onions and pita crumbles. For Protein I got the Chicken Shawarma and added extra protein-Shrimp. The shrimp was the star of the show. They were big, plump, deveined, grilled and seasoned to perfection! It also came with a thick, soft pita. One of my friends ordered a shawarma chicken wrap and it was huge. 2 other friends ordered the plate. The plate only comes with the protein and 2 selections and they got rice and veggies with a pita. The bowl and wrap are the best options.
I gave the atmosphere a 3 because the seats are hard seats and it’s not too warm and comfy but the food is worth it. I’m also glad they have Coke brand and also Poppi can drinks and bottled sparkling water.“

“They have very friendly staff and the food is fantastic.“

“World Famous Grill is easily one of our absolute favorite spots. You can truly feel the love they put into the place because it's family-owned. The owners are always so welcoming, and genuinely friendly every single time we walk through the door.
The portions here are massive, so you definitely leave full and happy. No matter how many times we come back, we always stick to our favorite: the shawarma plate. It is packed with flavor, perfectly cooked, and just hits the spot every single time.
If you want incredible comfort food served by amazing people who treat you like family, this is the place to go. We're always looking forward to our next visit!“

“I eat breakfast once a week on average. The staff is great, always pleasant, great customer service. The food is good, I always order the one 12 breakfast. Can sub potatoes for a salad if wanted. Only one complaint having to do with restaurant next door. While trying to enjoy my breakfast outdoors, next door is being mopped with Fabuloso cleaner. Totally ruined my breakfast. On another occasion I sat close to that area and a plastic dumpster with trash was being wheeled by me. Not the greatest atmosphere unfortunately.“

“The BEST pita chips and hummus!“

“Alan/Yalla Truck provided the attendees at our event with the most delicious meals!
He has a fantastic menu to choose from and gave us the highest quality food and the quantity was most satisfying. His crew was efficient and professional and all through our emails and phone calls, Alan was professional and helpful.

Couldn’t ask for a better experience!
Thank you Alan! Your Yalla Truck should be in high demand.“

“Very pleasant experience here! From the friendly accommodating staff, to the very delicious well prepared fish, it was a treat!! Best fish I’ve ever had! I look forward to coming back! 5⭐️“

“DISCLAIMER***I ate half my food because the smell was amazing to know how delicious it is!

Highly recommend for anyone looking for authentic middle Eastern sharwarma 🙌💕✨ thank you Kimo for sharing your delicious home cooking with us. It is truly an honor 🙏“

“We LOVE George’s for a quick lunch, nice dinner, or catering a party! They have been there for me for all my dining or party needs. They never disappoint. Both the food and the service is outstanding.“

“I am now permanently coming to this location, food was much better than the bell location. The kabobs combo was genuinely the best plate I have had in LA. High five to the amazing cook here!! Highly recommend it. I didnt even get to take a picture of the food because it was so good I just devoured it 😁“

“We arrived earlier than the food truck and almost missed them, but luckily right as we were looking for dinner alternatives they pulled in! Absolutely delicious, we ordered the 24" chicken shawarma meal with extra pickles. The chicken was super delicious, and the fries really hit the spot. Highly recommend!“

“good and healthy food and very delicious too.“

“The food is quality service is great. I will come back for sure.“

“Been getting food from here for a while now and always is on point. Kind of a bummer they don't have filet mignon meat option like their other location, but not a disappointment as the the steak is tender and flavorful as well. You can substitute the salad for potatoes. Not sure if they have an option where it is not spicy, but that is how I get it. Also, their green sauce is a must to add to your rice and protein you get. They are not open on weekends so you'd need to make time during the week and on the early side as that is the only time they are open. Parking is at the Commerce Commons. It's kind of like a food court at your local Shopping Mall. The staff here are always welcoming and nice.“

“Best ever kabob&desserts. Quality Service Ambient Best flavor food!!! Try once & never stop😋“
