“The best Falafel I have ever had. Perfectly cooked. They offered me a sample before I even ordered. One of the best values for family meals around.“

“)O( best falafel best babaganoush best tabouli best wraps everrrrrr )O(“

“Yes and yes! Great menu! Will be back!“

“Awesome food and great service. Atmosphere is what one would expect a strip mall food joint to be. Garlic paste seemed to be house made but the harissa seemed to be sambal oulek (an Asian chili sauce) everything else is really really good, especially the rice.“

“I have eaten here on multiple occasions and it is by far the best restaurant of its kind anywhere nearby. Everything Ive tried has been top quality and delicious. Even the smell is amazing upon walking in. The owner is a wonderful person and takes true pride in everything he puts out. Highly recommend.“

“Un buen servicio y la comida rica“

“Authentic Palestinian food prepared by a lovely Palestinian family. My favorites were the kousa makhshi, which is stuffed zucchinis cooked in a yogurt sauce, and the tabbouleh. Loved the kousa so much, ordered an extra one to take home. The service was incredible and they included complimentary pickled veggies. We drove hours to get here and it was well worth it.“

“Just ate at Habibi Grill in La Mirada. the Chicken Shawerma w/hummus & taboula was Great. Fantastic flavors and garlic sauce. Definitely recommend 👌“

“Very friendly, the food they serve is freash and out of this world. I knew nothing about this kind of food, oh my gosh..not only is it tasty, the price is fair, not out of reach. I am 65 on a fied income & found it decent in price. Saffron gots my proper. The food is delicious & they have the patience to explain each dish, which all is extremely healthy“

“Flavor flavor flavor so bomb. I think everything is made in house. They have like 200 different types of baklava. Hahaha. I think it's 6 or 8 but they also have a rice pudding that's really Good. Come to think of it. I've never been let down on anything I've eaten at this place. I believe it's family owned and operated. I live an hour and a half away every time I'm in the area. This is my go-to spot“

“If you are in the area and are looking for something new, fresh, delicious or all of the above please check this small shop out!! 😍 I honestly only noticed it when I started working next door at the smoke shop and let me tell you, I am sure glad I did!!! I get the falafel at least once a week and it’s by far the fluffiest most flavorful falafel i have had ever tried. From the meat, hummus, desserts and side sauces, all their food is made with love. Customer service is wonderful and very welcoming

. Please don’t look past this hidden gem I promise you won’t regret it.“

“Great and Tasty Halal Food in town.“

“I’ve been going there many times, and yesterday I saw a girl on the line that I’d never seen before The amount of respect and kindness she showed me was unbelievable She told me I looked really pretty explained everything to me and made me feel so special Even when my card kept declining she stayed patient talked to me and offered solutions Honestly the way she treated me was amazing and I really hope I get to be helped by her again next time I go and I’m really sad that I didn’t get to know her name but overall she had two braids💕“

“Lunch is $25.99 plus Hot Tea: $5.90; you only could order 4 dishes at a time and then “going on forever”, however, you should not have left-over, otherwise, a fine, I assumed. A few choices only available for dinner price($32.99). We ordered Skinny Dipping Cow; Karubi In Tokyo; Tried N True(Bulgogi, Tasty); Daa Pae Pork Belly; Surfin Shrimp(each order has 4 pieces); Winnie The Poohs Sn; Eight Firing Arms(spicy octopus, each order has 2 pieces). We enjoyed Bulgogi, shrimp and octopus more than others. Service was good and responsive.“

“Run, don’t walk to this family owned and operated gem in Huntington Beach. This review is coming from someone who is Persian and this is one of the best Persian restaurants I’ve been to in southern CA. There are some tables inside and a couple outside, but if you have a bigger party, I would suggest ordering it and walking down to the beach and eating it, perfect spot. I will definitely be back, I loved it!“

“Easily one of Orange County's crown jewels. The food, customer service, and overall environment are very welcoming and always incredible. Always consistent excellence. Thank you.“

“The quality of the food is similar to a steakhouse with quarter of the price. They grill everything fresh as you ordered it. It’s absolutely delicious! We ordered Steak and shrimp plates. The even ask you how would you like your steak cooked. The tender steak and the grilled shrimps we got was the best that I’ve ever had. Nice and clean restaurant with a big heated patio that they could be used for private events. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.“

“Definitely the chicken. I like the choices of sides too. I have to try the rest. I hope we get one in our area, Cypress or Cerritos.“

Whether you want something light and fresh or a hearty full meal. Fresh made and comfortable environment.“

“Most welcoming people with delicious food. Couldn’t go wrong with anything on the menu. We tired this place to beat the crowds at Disney land and honestly had a much better and wholesome experience at this restaurant than anything we could have gotten at DL. Thanks for the food and experience. Would love to come here more often but unfortunately we are visiting from the east coast. Highly recommend!!!“

“todo muy rico, excelente trato y no tuve que esperar tanto 😋“

“My first time here and I was not disappointed. From the service to the food ❤️❤️❤️. My food to start with was so fresh and so well seasoned. The steak perfectly cooked, the fries were the right about of crisp and soft in the middle, and the veggies amazing! All the sauces very delightful. The person who helped us talked with pride once I complimented the food and very well mannered and charismatic. I can't wait to come again.“

“Excellent Excellent Excellent….. i am from dubai been in canada for about 10 years, was visiting disneyland here in LA. Found this gem of a place late at night…….last time i had a shawarma like this in 10+ years was back home. Amazing service as well. Thanks guys.“

“The Kabob Shop never disappoints! The food is always fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. Big shoutout to Rayna for her amazing customer service—she was super friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend!“

“I'm so used to getting rice that is room temperature at best. So I ordered the chicken shawarma rice bowl, and the first thing I notice is the rice is warm . . . like really warm. I also have a fear of really hot spicy food because it makes me sick. No problem here - the chicken was so delicious, and not "hot" spicy at all. Just a really great flavor. My friend ordered the same, and her reaction was the same. Great flavor, so tasty! The service was great too! But the very best part was the size of the serving - it was such a generous serving, I had to ask for a to-go container, and enjoyed it again later that day. The restaurant was light, bright and clean. I totally recommend this restaurant.“

“What a gem of a restaurant, the quality is clear the second you see the food. The taste is fresh and the bowls are so colorful and nutritious. Great value for the generous portions also. Top not service- my go to restaurant for lunch! Also Rotisserie Chicken is great to pick up for dinner and take home to my family!“

“I'm a pretty simple gal. Don't go out much to eat, but once in awhile for special occasions. My first time here the atmosphere fit my liking-no mass no fuss. We ordered the family style meal for 7. To my amazement they brought soo much food. So, if you visit this place you better be hungry! Good taste & reasonable. I'm pretty sure I will be going back here soon. Be aware though because this place is across Anaheim City Hall, you have to park at a parking structure, if there is none in the street.“

“Great flavor! Nailed the true authentic Jordanian shawarma. Great job!“

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

“We had Panini Kabob Grill cater my wife’s birthday party and our guests raved! Their food is always great, and Alex, who we worked with, made sure everything was as ordered. The steak and chicken kabob’s were the staple, and we also included a falafel platter. Great experience.“

“I haven't had too many shawarmas in my life but this was so good. It didn't have too many ingredients but it was tasty! The chicken was soft and it was really good in the soft pita. I had to get one the next day somewhere else just because of it lol“

“Pretty good, but kind of overrated.“
