“This place is the bomb!

Healthy good wholesome Mediterranean food

We had a cashier server named Tiani. She was so kind to my wife and I, gave us sincere service with a smile and checked on us after we started the grub fest just because.

She also gave us recommendations and insight on the differences between the spices for the chicken

It was A1 customer service so Thank You CM and Tiani!!

Not only is the food delicious, but they had tunes playing at lunch time, classics from Prince to other ones I can’t even name, nice and steady.“

“Great place for a snack. We ordered pita with chicken and vegetables. There was a little mess in the kitchen, but overall everything is very good. The people behind the counter are friendly, the interior is simple and casual, the food is delicious“

“I wasn’t expecting much from a small strip-mall Mediterranean spot, but The Green Olive blew me away. The chicken shawarma plate came with fluffy rice, fresh salad, and warm pita. The garlic sauce alone is worth a return visit. Service is fast and the prices are more than fair. One of those lunch places that ends up being way better than chain spots.“

“Very Friendly and comfortable with good food.“

“I was in LA for four nights, went to other notable restaurants, and this was by far the best dining experience I had. You feel like you are in a friend's home. All of the dishes were delicious, fresh, vibrant and beautiful. Every detail is intentional. The dishes and platers are stunning and thoughtfully chosen. Highly recommend. If you're in LA, don't miss Chef Okay Inak and Sora.“

“If you are looking for a showstopping meal to share, this is exactly what to order. My friend and I came in for a late-night dinner and were blown away by how every dish complemented the next.

Start with the Marinated Olives, briny and fragrant with orange, lavender, and garlic confit. The Wild Mexican White Shrimp skewers were bright and tender with preserved lemon vinaigrette, and the Brussels Sprouts with date purée and brown butter were absolutely unforgettable. The Spiced Lamb Bolognese Radiatore was rich, savory, and the perfect way to round out the meal.

Our server was quick, attentive, and made easy adjustments for my friend’s non-dairy restriction without compromising the flavors. Every plate came out beautifully presented and full of flavor.

The atmosphere kept a lively buzz even as the night wound down, and though our table filled quickly with plates, we still scraped every one clean.

This spot delivers on both flavor and vibe. Highly recommend these dishes if you want a memorable meal to share.“

“Elijah and the crew at Luna Grill are wonderful and nice! The food was delicious 😋 I’m definitely coming again! Thank you😊“

“How can I say this...I love Hummus House and have for years! The food is delicious and has never disappointed. I go every chance I go to Hawthorne.“

“If you’re reading this, here’s the short version: this is easily one of the best restaurants in Culver City, and you need to try it now!

It’s a small spot in downtown Culver City that you could walk past without noticing. I’m glad I didn’t. There are a couple of tables outside, but most of the seating is indoors. The space is modern, clean, and relaxing.

We ordered three dishes, all recommended by our waiter. The mussel toast is a must. Every bite is savory and packed with seafood flavor. For mains, we had the short rib and rainbow trout. The short rib was perfection. Cooked over fire and served with crispy potato strings. It’s something you get at high-end steakhouse but at half the price. The rainbow trout looked beautiful and tasted fresh, though the citrus was a bit stronger than I prefer.

For dessert, we couldn’t resist the churro and ice cream sandwich. The ice cream (another must try), sourced from a Persian maker, was rich with rose, honey, and pistachio. The presentation was just as impressive. The churros were decent, though I wished they were crispier and the dipping sauce was thicker.

Overall, I’d give this place a solid five stars. The food is close to Michelin quality without the Michelin prices. Go and you won’t be disappointed.“

“5-star alert! My wife surprised me with this delicious Tunisian restaurant on Father’s Day! It was like an exotic trip to Mediterranean North Africa. The servers were good and the owner was super friendly and helpful! We had prawns, fish, lamb, cauliflowers, and the infamous Hand of Fatima. Everything was delicious, with unique flavors and beautifully presented. The sauces were so unique and flavorful, we had 3 orders of bread as we want to enjoy more of the flavors in every dish!“

“Came on a Thursday night and it was packed. It took 25 mins for my food to be ready, only 3 people working. The staffing didn’t meet TikTok-viral boosted demand. However, the chicken wrap was absolutely delicious. The different sauces that come with it are good and fun to dip, and the fries were flavorful, nice and crispy“

“Amazing breakfast and pastries right on the water in Marina Del Rey! Fabulous service too! Highly recommend!“

“Excellent food!!! Great service and we observed lots of take-away traffic“

“Delicious food and friendly workers“

“Everything ; food; service“

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

“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 are blessed to have this King Mediterráneo in Torrance. The food is delicious and very generous on the portion served. When I go there, I always try to say hello to Ara or Norah. It is such a pleasure to see and talk to them, they make me feel that we are long time friends. For sure I recommend this place and give them a FIVE STAR rating. I assure you will not be disappointed. !!!!!!“

“just check your takeout meal is complete before you leave they forgot my pita bread huhu“

Felt like aunty was cooking just for us. We love you guys so much. And I will definitely be coming back more regularly. Viva Palestina!!!!“

“A friend and I had lunch fresco style- patio area great! Superb service and food! The Lamb Chops were amazing! The Falafels were great— friend said they were super crunchy!“

“Ordered the chicken kebab plate with spicy potatoes and grilled vegetables and it was bursting with flavor! It definitely has a unique taste compared to most medditteran style food.

And the beef shwarma pizza... let me tell you what... WAS A STRAIGHT BANGER! Get extra garlic sauce to dip it in and you'll flalalyyyy to heaven with the first bite.

The owner also gave slice samples of their new vegetarian pizza and it made me want to go vegan. You can taste each vegetable and wasn't overpowered by the sauce.

Restaurant is very clean and the decoration makes you feel like you're in another country. This family owned business is very passionate with making their food taste good with all sorts of unique spices so give this spot a try! You won't regret it ;)“

“Food was delicious , menu had so much to choose from“

“Been meaning to check this place out for a while, and I finally got a chance this afternoon. I ordered the falafel plate. The food was made fresh to order. The falafel was crispy, and the hummus was perfect. He threw in some spicy eggplant, which was fantastic!

There’s a small seating area inside and some tables outside if you want to eat there. I did carryout.

Love this place! I’ll definitely be stopping by again!“

“Amazing food! We went for my son's birthday lunch and everyone ordered something different it was amazing! Everything tasted wonderful! Service was great and very welcoming staff and the cooks were helpful with questions as well. There breakfast seems almost like a hidden secret menu because I wasn't aware that it existed but it sounds delicious and I can't wait to try it so definitely ask about that you can get coffee there too!! 😁“

“delicious food in a beautiful setting.“

“The Rotisserie chicken was amazing!! I give it a 10! The spicy coleslaw was really good as well! Glad we decided to order for dinner. Yum! 🙂“

“a must try .. I was in the trial day tasting the food and all food were fabulous and delicious“

“Not really what I expected after seeing the BBQ ads — I thought the food would be served fresh off the grill. Instead, everything was kind of cold, as if it had been taken to the kitchen, chopped up, and left there before being brought to the table. That was a bit disappointing.“

“Delicious food and quite healthy too…“

“Delicious food, I love the shish kebabs & rice! 😋“

“I Experienced their amazing food by “ Carry Out”. Difficult to believe one is able to pick up such delicious gourmet cuisine, by Top Chefs. Cannot wait to experience the full ambiance !!!“

“Dynamite Mediterranean spot located in a Lawndale area ghost kitchen. Everything that I tried here was fresh-tasting, well-seasoned and so delicious! Standouts for me were the kafta kabob and the gyro meat. I was very impressed with the authenticity of the flavors and the loving care put into the preparation and the presentation. And, the accompanying baba ganoush was very fresh and tasty. David, the chef and owner (along with his wife) is very friendly and welcoming. I will definitely be returning to try some other items on the menu.“

“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.“

“Amazing food, nice friendly atmosphere!“

“Very good food healthy for diabete people“

“REVIEW UPDATE!!!!!

YOU HAVE TO COME TO THIS PLACE!!
One of the best places in LA!!!
Today I had a Kibby plate with fatush!!!
Please come and try, you can thank me later!

When you need a Shawarma, World Famous Grill is here to deliver. The Shawarma was great and I tried the Chicken and The beef because of a confusion, at the end I won... They were both delicious and different. I'm still trying to know how the baklava was. It melt in my mouth. Next time, I will try it slower, but with the amazing taste, I doubt it will be possible.“

“I had the Chicken Kabob plare with Hummus and Maison Rice. The food was delicious. The chicken included a skewer with one little mushroom, one cherry size tomatoe, a sliver of red bell pepper and a small sliver of red onion. The vegetables kabob was delicious but such a tiny portion. I would have liked a full side of the grilled vegetables (4 skewers) which is not on the menu. Next time I visit I hope they make an exception and allow me to add the extra vegetable kabobs to my order.“

“Had it yesterday for the first time and loved it,will be back again with out any question.“

“It was lunch time on a Tuesday and no one was there. The neighboring establishments were busy so I decided to try this since I needed a quicker lunch to get back to a work meeting. It was not quick. That’s a “me” problem. But I was surprised it was 20 minutes for my one order. A bit overpriced for the basic format of the restaurant. Tasty food and the manager appeared to have a friendly relationship with a regular that came in which is normally a good sign.“

“I loved this place and would definitely want to come back and visit because their food is so delicious with all of the different fusion food and classic Korean comfort food. specially ddukppokki, kimchi fried rice , kimchi pasta, breakfast sandwiches ,special coffee & juice .“

“This is a quick stop to get some Mediterranean food large portions child friendly I do recommend“
