“The food is always fresh and delicious! We love the chicken kebobs and it's great to have the lemon garlic chicken back. The service is good and servers are kind, patient while taking the orders, and polite. We were helped by Dylan who took our order, checked on us during the meal, and efficiently cleared the table.“

“Have gotten takeout from here a number of times. Never disappointed. Flavorful chicken that's nice and tender, ingredients always seem fresh.
All of the sauces are very tasty and they are very generous with them. The chicken plate and The Get Greeky bowl are, so far, my favorites. Pricing is fair compared to some other places.
Staff is friendly and attentive.“

“Never had batter beef Showerma in usa thumbs up for ABU KABAB I highly recommend it you must try“

“Coffee was delicious! And another time wine was awesome! Michal was attending to us and he was polite and helpful!“

“If you order on Uber Eats, the price is exceptional for the quality and quantity of food you get. All the beef choices are top notch as well as the rice and fresh baked fluffy pita bread. The only not as good items are the chicken being a bit bland and the hummus (but that is a problem for most places in LA). Overall great restaurant with tasty food.“

“We just had dinner here for the first time, and the food was absolutely amazing! We were warmly greeted by Vanessa, who was incredibly kind and welcoming.

We ordered the Branzino and the Chicken Combo Plate, and everything was delicious. We also tried the hummus, strawberry mojito, and baklava—each dish was full of fresh, vibrant flavors.

Thank you for the excellent food and outstanding service. Our entire experience was wonderful from start to finish.

May God shower this restaurant with blessings, prosperity, and continued success. We will definitely be back!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Cafe Elegante in Burbank is truly a hidden gem and one of the most enjoyable dining experiences I’ve had in a long time. From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed with warm hospitality and outstanding customer service that made me feel right at home.

The food was absolutely incredible. The chicken dishes were perfectly seasoned, tender, juicy, and packed with flavor in every bite. The beef was equally impressive—cooked to perfection, rich, flavorful, and incredibly satisfying. You can genuinely tell that great care and attention go into every dish that comes out of the kitchen.

What really stood out were the mouthwatering appetizers. Every appetizer we ordered was fresh, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor. They were the perfect way to start the meal and left us excited for the main courses. Each bite showcased the quality ingredients and passion that Cafe Elegante puts into its menu.

The atmosphere was welcoming, clean, and comfortable, making it a wonderful place to enjoy a meal with family and friends. Between the exceptional food, generous portions, and attentive service, Cafe Elegante exceeded all expectations.

If you're looking for delicious chicken, flavorful beef dishes, unforgettable appetizers, and a dining experience that leaves you smiling, Cafe Elegante in Burbank is a must-visit. I cannot wait to return and try more of their amazing menu!“

“One of my favorite spots to grab a quick meal. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and consistently good. The staff is friendly and welcoming, and service is always fast. I also love all the sauce options and the healthier menu choices. Portions are generous too—I usually end up with leftovers for later. Definitely a place I keep coming back to!“

“Just good quality food . fresh & tasty“

“In love with this restaurant 🤤🤤🤤“

“happily 😊 surprised. lunch on the run. Good Chicken!“

“They have great quality products and they are very friendly“

“I'm at a loss for words, but I'll try my best. Food? Amazing! Perfect amount of seasoning and the portions are huge! And this is coming from a big dude. For the appetizers, my favorites were the Kashk E'bademjan (Eggplant Delight), Potato Salad, and the Hummus! They have more selections, but this is what I was able to try. I hear all are great! For the Entrees, ALL OF THEIR KABOBS ARE FIRE (MMM MMMM YUMMY). I had a sample of most them and in the islands, we would say "broke da mouf kine", which translates to, the food is *beep beep* GOOD! If you've never had Persian Food, or you love it, this is the restaurant for you! Drinks? I love Korean Soju and Cass beer, so yeah, +10 points from me. They do carry various Wines and Beers though...and of course your choice of Soda Pop. Atmosphere? It' gives you a Kewl Kids Vibe; a classy place where you can be yourself with family and friends and just enjoy each others company. You have your choice of Indoor and Outdoor dinning which is amazing. There's also a private room upstairs that can hold 20 people for a meal and karaoke (there is a fee to reserve, but very much worth it). Staff? We were greeted at the door as if we were coming home. Pasha and his staff go above and beyond to make sure all your needs are met. Their suggestions on meal and drink pairings are spot on. I can't thank Pasha and the crew for making our group outing a success. Overall? I'll be going back and I hope that you add this restaurant to your list of 'go to' places to dine at. You will not be disappointed, I promise you. (Unless your attitude stinks or you're not willing to try new food ‍) Pasha again, thank you so much for the hospitality. I already told Fatemeh that I'll be coming back again. سپاسگزارم“

“Pita nachos are awesome! Many different flavors of Hummus!“

“Byblos Mediterranean bakery has the good food , amazing and excellent service, and all the staff at Byblos are very nice, helpful and friendly too. Wishing them all the best And the prefect place to sit and enjoy the meals I rate Byblos Mediterranean baker 5“

“I was car shopping and got hungry, we came into this place by Google maps and let me just say, this place is awesome, we had hummus, potato salad and yogurt and cucumber appetizer, AMAZING, we got two platters one ground beef and steak and One chicken and steak, both steaks were cook to perfection (it's freaking rare to get perfect steaks in any restaurant) chicken was tender and juicy, ground beef was nice and soft, portions are really good, I m a heavy hitter and I ended up full, also Eddie is the man, great customer, ask for him when coming here (unfortunately I forgot to take pictures)“

“Such a lovely local restaurant! The food tastes fresh, homemade, and full of flavor. The portions are generous, and you can tell a lot of care goes into preparing each dish. The service is warm and friendly, and the atmosphere makes you feel comfortable and welcome. A great family-owned restaurant that I’m happy to support and recommend!“

“The place is beautiful, ample parking space, staffs are friendly and accomodating and close to FWY 2 and 5“

“The overall experience was great. The food was tasty and plentiful. The setting of the room and patio as well as table serving is very pleasant. One negative to note were the drinks: my latte was not satisfying - too small (~12oz.), not enough milk (too much foam for a latte) and per my request for extra steamed milk they offered two Coffeemate creamer pods - all while it set me back $10.40+tax; a 0.5 litter (16.9oz.) bottle of Pellegrino was $4.16+tax.“

“Amazing food , great ambiance and friendly staff“

“We had the most wonderful night here! The owners are so sweet and thoughtful and the food is out of this world! We went on a Saturday during dine LA and around 8pm a dancer came around and she was wonderful! It felt like family there and we can’t wait to go back!“

“Forget about the rest. Try the best“

“You can taste the care and attention directly in the food and it's really neat to see how so many traditional dishes have been adapted to be gluten free. Well worth multiple visits. What did bother me and I feel could be improved is the music. Although appreciative for the vibe of the restaurant, nearly everything sounded to be AI generated. I wish they played traditional Lebanese musicians.“

“This place is excellent! One of the best Persian restaurants in Los Angeles ! Wow! I was blown away by the great food. Service and decor was amazing as well.“

“Kabob Village never disappoints! The kabobs were incredibly juicy, tender, and packed with flavor. Every dish was fresh, well-seasoned, and absolutely delicious. The staff was extra friendly, welcoming, and made us feel right at home from the moment we walked in. Excellent food, outstanding service, and a great overall experience. I highly recommend Kabob Village in Glendale and will definitely be coming back!“

“The food was great!! and good company.“

“delicious food in a beautiful setting.“

“Bacari Glendale: It is a beautiful place we have always wanted to go to. We took two friends for a belated birthday dinner (and as the staff realized it was just that, they even rewarded us with a delicious birthday dessert :-). Great service, nice ambiance, and delicious food - we had the bread (could have been a bit more for the $4,50), then shared the Mac & Cheese topped up with the pear and brie pizza that was the best.“

“Always fresh and filling!“

“Nice, elevated wine bar! Personable service and interesting food options with a menu well worth returning for. Good decibel level for maintaining a conversation between the music and other guests. Some influencers were livestreaming the entire time I was there which was a bit obnoxious, but that’s LA I guess.“

“I had a great experience at this place with my family. The food was absolutely amazing, with something for everyone to enjoy. The service was exceptional and friendly, making us feel right at home. The location is great, easily accessible, and the atmosphere was perfect for a family outing. Overall, it was a fantastic dining experience, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a great place to eat.“
