I’ve ordered from this restaurant twice for delivery, and both times have been extremely disappointing. Each time, they kept us waiting for over 30 minutes past the estimated delivery time, only to cancel the order without any explanation or apology. It’s very frustrating to waste time expecting a meal that never arrives. Unfortunately, after two failed attempts, I won’t be ordering again.

We had the pleasure of working with Esso Mediterranean Bistro to cater our event, and everything was perfect. The food was absolutely delicious, the service was outstanding, and our guests were truly impressed. Highly recommended for any special occasion!

Very adorable Middle-Eastern restaurant hidden in Encino. Very fresh and high quality foods, uniquely & deliciously flavored! A MUST VISIT LOCATION! Amazingly priced for the quality you get. My favorite is the chicken kebab (so moist & juicy), fattoush salad (quality fresh veggies & crunchy bread - others should learn!), hummus (without garlic, so you can enjoy during lunch meetings 🙂), and can't forget the cheese boregs (definitely a must try at least once). We also love the tikka (filet mignon steak, marinated with unique flavors... it's so soft, melts-in-your mouth delicious)! Fyi: on the side, the owner caters high-end special events all over Cali (Malibu, Calabasas, Laguna beach, Newport, Fresno, Beverly Hills, Simi Valley, etc...). I follow them on Instagram - the grazing tables, display of foods is AMAZING!!! It's honestly the most entertaining Instagram site! I highly recommend trying Esso Mediterranean Bistro at least once... you'll be hooked!

I got take it for my girlfriend there. She said it was delicious. The other people picking up food were friendly. We were chatting it up. That's why I put 5 stars for atmosphere. I put 3 stars for service because the staff wasn't very friendly. If the staff was more friendly, we'd would probably become regulars. I don't feel comfortable eating at places where the staff seems like they don't like me. I like to feel special. My money is selfish. I'll go back for take out again if my girlfriend wants it, that decide wherever I not I'm go back again

Very delicious food! As Middle Eastern I have a hard time finding a good place that make good Mediterranean food but this one was the best out of many I have tried in the valley👍🏻. It was my first time trying it and It’s not going to be my last time ordering from here. I highly recommend it

Absolutely delicious kebab! The flavors were spot on, perfectly seasoned, and the meat was so tender and juicy. I can honestly say it’s one of the best kebabs I’ve ever had in California!!
