“Some of the best Mediterranean food in the area- which is saying a lot.

Chicken is always juicy; the rice is always flavorful; the salad has the perfect acidity level and balance of components; hummus is clearly house-made; the toum is rich and potent.

The food is great, and the entire place is usually run by one fella, so have some patience- it's not McDonalds, it won't be ready in 30 seconds.

Slow down and enjoy yourself- well worth the wait. Don't bother with food delivery, just drive down there like a normal human being.

My only gripe? The pita could be warmer. That's it- that's my only complaint.“

“I'm so happy to have landed work nearby and discovered this family-owned Mediterranean gem. You can genuinely taste the quality in every ingredient. Everything feels fresh, thoughtfully prepared, and made with love.

The food is simple, wholesome, and full of flavour. It's the kind of meal that leaves you feeling energized instead of weighed down. Even when they're busy, the team works with ease, warmth, and genuine passion for what they do.

Businesses like this are what make a community thrive. If you're looking for meaningful, high-quality food made by people who truly care, do yourself a favour and support this local family business. Highly recommended.“

“Despite the restaurant being busy, I was seated very quickly, which made for a great first impression. The food was excellent, and I especially enjoyed the orange mint hookah. The atmosphere was welcoming, the service was friendly, and the overall vibe made for a great experience. I would definitely recommend this place and look forward to coming back.“

“The word is out! I honestly can say that Lemon Mint is the hottest restaurant in the SGV for excellent Mediterranean cuisine and hookah. I’ve had friends from Glendale to Orange County hearing great things about Lemon Mint and I tell them the hype is real. The cuisine is fresh and authentic. The hookah is the cherry on top to a relaxed outdoor environment. Seating is limited so plan ahead to get a great seat. For you that love hookah, we always have the “Love 66”.
Ownership of this great establishment is always on sight making sure every customer is happy and taken care of. Thank you Sam for bringing such a great restaurant to Glendora.“

“Damasquino is an absolute gem in Glendora! The food is outstanding—everything is fresh, flavorful, and tastes authentically made. The shawarma, kebabs, hummus, and garlic sauce were all exceptional, and the quality really stands out.

What made the experience even better was the service. Everyone was warm, welcoming, and genuinely attentive, making us feel right at home from the moment we walked in. The staff was friendly, helpful with recommendations, and made sure everything was perfect throughout our meal.

If you’re looking for incredible Mediterranean food paired with outstanding hospitality, Damasquino is definitely worth a visit. Highly recommend!“

“I love how tasty their food is. I had the Lafta wrap and a Kafta plate. The way I devoured it all was insane. The flavors were great, the food was fresh, and the restaurant is kept very clean and tidy. The bread in unreal and tastes so good from their oven. I absolutely loved this place and I loo forward to coming back!

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp right by the entrance!“

“If you’re looking for Mediterranean food with great vibes and a welcoming atmosphere, this place is definitely worth checking out!

The owner was incredibly friendly and cheerful, and you could tell he genuinely cared about making everyone feel welcome. His positive attitude really set the tone and gave the whole place such a good vibe.

I also loved the small mom-and-pop feel. It felt personal and welcoming, which made the experience even better.

We ordered the chicken kabobs, and the kids went with the classic burgers and fries. Everything was great, but what really stood out was the empanadas. The owner was raving about them and insisted we try some on the house, and honestly, I was very impressed. They were delicious!

We’ll definitely be coming back. Thank you again for the great food and positive energy!“

“In love with this restaurant 🤤🤤🤤“

“great place, love the fresh vegetables“

“This restaurant is absolutely phenomenal. The atmosphere is warm and friendly which is evident from all interactions with every staff member. The food and service are excellent in every sense of the word. The bread and baklava were made fresh! The Turkish Delights were phenomenal. The owner and staff went to great lengths to make us feel comfortable and welcome, explaining the menu items in detail. We are so excited to have come across this gem!!! It is the type of culinary and cultural experience that my husband and I treasure. We will be coming again soon, both with and without friends! We can’t wait to try some of the items on the patio grill. :)“

“Garden Salad and request to add the grilled salmon.“

“I was referred this hidden gem by a friend to try their bakery, namely the “Laham be ajeen” aka (Safiha) but I was tempted to try their spinach pies, which turned out to be a great idea. Family enjoyed the pies more than the famous bakeries of Brookhurst of Anaheim. I have bought some Baraze’ too but unfortunately they seemed to have been slightly under-cooked so I had to give them a little bit of toasting. Maybe it’s a personal choice of mine to have sesame on baraze’ cookies a bit darker and more toasty.
Their cooking menu is good. I would order in advance.
In the small grocery section, I was surprised to find some middle eastern delicacies at a decent price such as the coveted brown truffles in brine. I filled up 😎

While they have a couple of tables, I didn’t feel it was suitable to sit. The view is the parking lot and other businesses.“

“Love love this place. Very yummy food it’s like home made food. If you didn’t try it you are missing out. My favorite place to eat ❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“I've been searching for really good stuffed grape leaves since a former co-worker brought some of her home made dolma at work about 8 years ago... I've had some hits (mostly misses), but none compared to the one she made... now this... the search is over. Happy palate!😊 It's my first time here. What can I say? As soon as I entered the place, I can smell good things baking and cooking. The owner showed me trays of fresh baked pastries/pies (spinach, meat & cheese) as he took them out straight from the oven. Everything looked delicious. The service was great. I ordered to go and the owner gave me a sample of the Cheese Burak (Cheese Pie) to eat on the go. I started driving off and as soon as I took my first bite I regretted immediately why I did not order that.Everything we ordered were so flavorful and delicious. They also have the best Hummus. So I will definitely go back to this place. 😊“

“We ordered the spicy hummus, garlic fries, beef shawarma, babakenush?, and cauliflower. My friend saw the baclava and had to try it. So we started with desser. The pistachio was very crispy and chewy and was my friends favorite. The walnut was sweet and chewy which was my favorite. Everything was absolutely delicious! The spicy hummus had a little kick at the beginning but as we ate we didn't taste the kick anymore. The cauliflower is lightly fried and so freaking delicious! I ate it by itself or with some hummus. My friend ate it with the babakanush and some cauliflower sauce and was in love. I tried her babakanush. I don't like eggplant but this was really delicious! Had a lovely garlic flavor that was slightly addicting. The garlic fries was just fries sprinkled with garlic powder but dipped it in the hummus and it was good. The pitas were really good too. I could've eaten more if I wasn't so full. But the beef shawarma was freaking AMAZING!!!!! We both said this was the best Mediterranean food we've ever had. I said no tomatoes to my beef shawarma which I'm glad I did. The flavor was absolutely amazing without it. Definitely 10/10 no complaints at all. And service was awesome too! So kind, friendly, and funny. I can't wait to come back again!“

“Great food , and fair prices. The best Mediterranean food I had in the inland empire. it’s located in the new part of Claremont Village.“
