Middle Eastern Restaurants near Culver City, CA

“One of my favorite restaurants ever. The meat was seasoned so expertly and was so tender. Mussel toast was INCREDIBLE. Their sourdough was out of this world. Staff was knowledgeable and guided us in trying many interesting wines. This place was amazing!“

“This place is great! Super yummy food and the employees are really awesome!“

“I gave 4 stars for atmosphere because it's at the mall and it's very loud but other than that the customer service I receive is always the best. Food is always delicious and I don't mind waiting at times because I know it will be steaming hot and delicious 😋“

“Great food and cocktails!! 🍸“

Dietary restrictions: Vegan options available.

Kid-friendliness: Very nice and friendly staff.

Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access for wheelchair and mobility equipment to the Restaurant and the outside Dining area.“

“Always a good interaction when coming to Z Falafel. The cooks are such nice guys and always so helpful when I may ask about one of their many options on the menu. I always try to switch up my plate when I come here and not once have I had a disappointing meal from this location. Keep going hard!“

“This place deserves 10 stars I could not take pictures of the food because I inhaled the food. I got 3 shawarma and finished in less than 5 minutes and almost ate my finger with it it was so good. You guys have to go heavy on that yellow sauce have no clue what it is but woowwwww that’s crazy. Also they are very generous on the meat, on top all that firework tasty food. The service is even better, the guys name is Avi and his such a welcoming and genuine. I literally felt like home honestly would have got a 4th shawarma if I had space in the stomach. Overall stop reading this and get over here try it yourself“

“Great and Tasty Halal Food in town.“

“Our first time and we will definitely go back!!“

“Great food! Excellent service! 😍“

“I recently purchased food from here while attending a conference in the city of Los angeles. It was truly fall off the bone deliciously seasoned chicken. The chicken was tender and juicy. It was a little difficult to separate out some of the smaller Bones from the half chicken but I got through it and enjoyed that I could rend the flesh with my hands because I did not have a knife and fork (I do not mind this it made me feel cool to eat it manually). The bread was spectacular and was baked to a degree of fluffiness that I have not experienced in another bread. I got it with hummus and pickled turnips which were pretty delectable, very toothesome and vibrantly colored. The sauces I chose were the tahini and the red sauce which were both nice accents on the food. I also got a delicious mint lemonade which was the perfect amount of sweet and tart with a nice cool mint flavor.

It is so difficult nowadays to find truly authentic Middle Eastern food, oftentimes it is just a poor imitation co-opted and misappropriated by people from northern Europe who think they have a claim to the land. That's why I am so glad you have gotten food from Jerusalem Chicken where I could tell it was cooked by people truly native to the land.“

“I like the food Jamil n actman is the best“

“Incredible food and service. Our waiters name was Christian; he was personable, kind, and hospitable. The food was mouthwatering and had such unique flavors. HUGE portions and definitely comfort food as they state. Will definitely be returning to check out the new menu each month.“

“Very impressed with Javan! Service was so helpful and friendly, especially our server Victor. The food was outstanding and so fresh. The combination of flavors in the Alex salad was absolutely outstanding. Our vegetarian Koobideh was delicious. The hummus and babaganoush were perfect. Thank you - we will be back!“

“Orla did not disappoint! Based on my experience at Mother Tongue and … by Michael Mina restaurant has earned a I will 100% try it and trust it to be excellent. As I said Orla lives up, from the views to the impeccable service, this place could get a pass on a miss on a food item. We went for Thanksgiving so it was a different menu than usual, and honestly all the items were spectacular, except the Turkey that only one person got, so I’ll overlook that slightly dry Turkey and still go with a must visit on this one. Price points are high, but this is in a Regent and the atmosphere and service can warrant the price tag. Treat yourself!!! Michael Mina has delivered once again.
10/10 - GO

Dietary restrictions: Something for everyone here, service was so on top of any allergies, etc.

Parking: Valet, excellent service, restaurant validates to a reasonable discount“

“The outside look of this restaurant does not represent the Inside. Very lovely décor inside. Lunch was pretty busy but service is great. Food does not take long.
I had Ghormeh Sabzi. The stew as its described, is different from my understanding. Basically had one type of herb and meat plus the sauce. The sauce taste very strong. I cannot describe the flavor.
The prices are not bad. Very reasonable.
Stick with the Kabobs.“

“Great food fast and great service“

“Great Chicken 🐔 Kabob plate.“

“Highly highly recommend. Awesome food. Great owner. Great servers. Best babaganoush ever!“

“The best service and the food always amazing! Tastes like its homemade and with so much love! Such nice people with the family vibes is my favorite part! Thank you for always providing at my events! Always my go to spot!“

“Delicious! Really interesting and tasty food.“

“This is a wonderful halal Lebanese restaurant in LA, and I highly recommend it. We ordered many dishes, and they were all delicious. The only reason I didn't give it a five-star rating was the twenty-minute wait for a table despite there being many available.“

“This review is to show that tahini was added to our uber eats delivery order when we said no to tahini (spoke with the person on the phone and was told that upload pictures for proof. uber eats told me to speak to the restaurant directly). My gf loves your food but she is severely allergic to tahini. And I always specify no tahini but you guys sometime put tahini (happened again). She wont eat so we need to throw it away“

“This is the best Mediterranean/Lebanese food in LA. I have not tried a better falafel anywhere in the world yet... Definitely 10 stars!!“

“Clean, fresh and flavorful food - Cornish hen kabob plate and tabouli salad- was quite a nice surprise and delightful experience nestled in the heart of the Garment district.“

“Way fancier inside than I expected. It was empty at the time, so we got amazing service: quick and attentive. The food was a bit pricey but came with so much and was absolutely delicious! Excited to go back and to bring more people next time!“

“As a Persian American, I am so glad I found this place. It offers something I’ve been wishing for my whole life, modernized Persian food. Traditional is unbeatable, but I’ve always wondered what it would be like if people took those recipes and updated them. Azizam offers that. I came specially for the kuku sandwich and it was excellent, simple and very fresh. Same with the shallot yoghurt and Kipteh. We also tried the secanjaben spritz which if you like those flavors you will love. I really love this whole concept and would love to see more dishes! The ambience is friendly and warm. Highly recommend.“

“It’s the most place to hangout and enjoy caravans meal. Great food and excellent service Caravan restaurant is the best and awesome place“

“Loved the place it’s so cute and cozy in there! The food is amazing and their gala cakes are probably some of the best I’ve had

They did accidentally switch my vegetarian order for one with check, but the servers were incredibly nice and threw in a free baklava for their mistake

Everyone is super kind! It’s kind of hard to find parking as it’s mostly street parking, but overall it was a great experience and meal“

“One of my favorite place. I love the food and especially the kobedeh. :)“

“DELICIOUS 😋HEALTHY FOOD AND VERY NICE AND FRIENDLYCUSTOMER SERVICE .“

“Everything is perfect , me and my family love the food it’s so yummy , Thank you.“
