“I schedule Bosnian food truck for the high rise community in Downtown where I work at. Ismet has very good customer service and his food is so delicious, the residents are always waiting in line, and they always share with me how much they love this food truck. This is the reason why I keep scheduling this food truck, and for their quality food.“

“Excellent service great food always a pleasure to dine here“

“My family and I had such an incredible experience at Alforon! Samia, co-owner and sole waitress/hostess, laughed with us the entire time, sharing her candid recommendations and suggestions. The za'atar flatbread, chicken kebab, and aaysh essaraya (we ended up ordering two!) were particularly delightful. It was our first time, but it was incredibly telling that the rest of the guests were regulars (one couple was there for the third time that week) - the entire experience felt like we were having a meal at a beloved family member's home. I wish we lived in San Diego because I would be back in a heartbeat!“

“Great place, great food, service is excellent, everybody is having a good time and it shows, this place is a must in SD, whether you go as a couple or with friends, definitely recommended!!!“

“Great place! Lots of options“

“Best chicken Kabobs, the beef Kabobs were good too, the salad is one of favorites!!“

“Food was good. However, the cashiers were busy cleaning up for the night vs taking care of customers. It wasn’t late, either. It was around 7:30 or 7:45 on a Sunday. The cleaners they use are very strong. Very pinesol or something like that. Glad I got food to go because I wouldn’t want to have smelled the cleaners during dinner. Dining room had zero vibe.“

“Just tried the falafel sandwich from Falafel California and it did not disappoint! The bread was perfectly grilled and crispy with a nice toasted flavor, wrapped tight and packed with flavor. It came with three different sauces (garlic, spicy red, and a mild white sauce) — each one added something different and paired really well with the sandwich.

Everything was neat and well packaged too. Great quality for the price. Will definitely be ordering again and highly recommend it to anyone in the area.“

“What a great experience. I love Luna gril and this location is the best. Thank you to Mike and his team for the wonderful service and the food quick and ready. I don’t like showing up close to closing but I was desperate for some food and asked if it was too late to order and my order was still taken and I was treated very well. Much appreciation!!“

“Excellent food and service!“

“Today the food was amazing. We had some Shawarma and we had some of their salad, which was original Palestinian. This place was so good me and my friend Adnan loved it. We got the lemon mint drink and it felt like we were back home in the Middle East. This is the best Mediterranean food I’ve had in San Diego.“

“Hey I just want to say the Luna grill down in Carmel valley was amazing and I want to give a special thank you to Athena for helping me out with my order she was polite and made sure i got everything I needed I recommend anyone that loves Mediterranean food check out this location 2 thumbs up will be back“

“We were wandering around the Gaslamp looking for a new restaurant to try. We luckily went into Mimosa. What a lovely dinning experience. We had the dinner for two. This gave us the chance to try most of their specialties .It was really impressive that each entree had its own unique flavor. The service was excellent and very friendly. The restaurant filled up quickly and so I guess we'll get a reservation next time.“

“My plate was just delicious, nice people, small place felt “at home” 😊“

“This was our first time trying Somali food, and it definitely won’t be our last! We asked the staff what they recommended, and every suggestion was excellent.

The whole fried fish was perfectly crispy with amazing flavor, the halal buffalo fries were spicy and delicious, and the sambusas were some of the best we’ve had. We also tried a drink we’d never had before that tasted like a mix between Dr Pepper and grape soda, and it was surprisingly refreshing!

The service was friendly and welcoming, and they made our first experience with Somali cuisine a great one. My husband enjoyed it so much that he already said he’ll be stopping by for lunch whenever he’s working in San Diego.

Thank you, Bisbas, for such a wonderful meal. We look forward to coming back and trying even more of the menu. Highly recommend if you’re looking to try something new and incredibly flavorful!“

“The grilled chicken in any menu item. The chicken wrap is to kill for, according to my better half. The simple rice with grilled chicken kabob is my go-to. At least once a week.“

“Best food, best service!!“

“We have ordered Kebabs before here, we recently ordered a meal kit that was all rice and hardly any meat, I mean it was a joke, its a $30 meal. I messaged them because we have ordered several times before and thought maybe they would try to make it right but they never replied. This was 2 weeks ago. We will never buy food here again! The servings are very small and there are tons of other places to eat or order take out around here if they want to be jerks about it! The food is average really, we order out frequently so as not to have to cook and live in the area. We got about $1 worth of rice and lettuce for a $30 meal plate, what a joke!“

“Great spot for a solid restaurant. I had an excellent gyro like the addition of a slight garlic taste and pickled taziki. French fries were not those typical double friend fries you find in calico Rina which I do not like at all but thin, hot and perfectly cooked. This is a GREAT option for this type of food at good prices“

“First time here and not disappointed. Didn't have a long wait like others said. The doma was excellent. I got the combo to try their meats - beef kabob, chicken Tikka, and beef shawarma. All were seasoned well, especially the shawarma...very bold. But it's the cook on the meat that set them apart! All 3 were tender, juicy, and savory. Too many overcook these but they just melted in my mouth. Highly recommended.“

“i absolutely fell in love! i was a first time customer and received such a welcoming experience. everyone was so friendly and helpful and not to mention, the food was amazing! i got the chicken shawarma fries and it was seriously the best fries i have ever had in my whole life! we even received recommendations for the next time we come back, which we most definitely will! 10/10 recommend!“

“The yummy tasty food is amazing 😉“

“My husband and I had an amazing experience at Mama's Mediterranean Kitchen. The food and music instantly transported us back to Lebanon. Every dish impressed us with its incredible flavors and perfect textures. Authentic, delicious, and full of heart. We'll definitely be back! 😌✨🤍“

“Thank you for being able to accommodate a large order so quickly! They were able to also deliver at a time I was unable to choose through online. The food tastes great and all of the staff are amazing from the moment it arrived to our office. Thank you!!“

“Found this place randomly on Google Maps, and I was not disappointed! Service was amazing, and I loved how they sent texts on when to come and it was so easy to order. Even though there is no seating, the service was impeccable. We were greeted by a nice person who served us our food, and it is clear they cooked this with care. Only thing I will say is that I wish Pita bread came with the family meal, but it didn’t bother me enough to impact the quality/review. 🫰💯“

“I had a wonderful and amazing taste of all of the delicious food prepared at Serea Coastal Cuisine. I can’t wait to go back and have this delicious food.“

“dine in is terrible on summer days...so hot.. sweaty..food is ok..“

“Friendly great place to fuel up!!“

“Amazing food! Thank you 😊“

“A wonderful experience from start to finish. The atmosphere was beautiful, the staff were incredibly kind and attentive, and the service was impressively fast. We received such a warm welcome, which made us feel comfortable right away. The location is also very convenient and easy to access. Definitely a place I would be happy to visit again!“

“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!“

“Great experience. 5 years ago I stopped there for a meal and talked to the owner. What an artist and poet! Good food, too!“

“food consistently good, tasty, fresh.“

“Its a simple little food court. Is the food exquisite, not really. Were the portions huge? Most def. Did it taste like Mediterranean? Yep. I would have liked olives. Pita was big and soft.It was all saffron rice not just a dollop on top of white. The salad was blah but fresh and big.Will I go back. 100% yes.“

“Unbelievably good. It’s worth the trip for the mountain of perfect fries alone.“

“very good. someone came and ordered sambusas...I hope i spelled that correctly lol...
but six of those and those beans with the bread,or naan or whatever its called...I would be fine.the goat and chicken was fine. we went for the fufu ...good but least favorite. im thinking of the spinach rt now...mmmmmmm“

“Magnifique vue, avec une Cuisine raffinée“

“We had a birthday party for a party of seven last night. Our first time there. We were all so impressed with the service, the quality of the food, the atmosphere, and just how they made you feel at home and took great care of you the whole night. I will definitely be back and taking more friends!“

“I had a great experience at this Mediterranean restaurant. Their lunch special is an excellent value, offering generous portions at a very reasonable price. More importantly, the quality of the food was outstanding—everything was fresh, flavorful, and prepared with care. It’s clear they take pride in both the ingredients and the service they provide. I highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a delicious, satisfying meal at a great price. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“The best restaurant so far in San Diego!!! The food is amazing and you get a big portion!!!“
