POOR Sanitation! Especially during COVID? Mildly distant rude owner, prepare food w/NO gloves after handling cash. We were there for 30 minutes, he didn't wash hands even once after he handled cash for several customers. COVID anyone?!

Been coming here for almost 10 years! It is the best shawerma spot in town. So delicious with great service always! Thank you so much for all the delicious food.

Literally a hole-in-the-wall, but with GREAT Mediterranean food. Limited seating with an ocean breeze. Pricey, but worth it!
Parking: Don't drive to this place. Make your plans to enjoy Laguna Beach on foot, parking in one of the paid garages, and walk to this place. It's worth it!

The Adonis Restaurant is a Taste of Mediterranean Paradise in Laguna Beach
From the moment you step up to Adonis Restaurant, you're transported to the sun-soaked shores of the Mediterranean. This Laguna Beach gem offers an authentic dining experience that stands out even in this foodie-rich coastal town.
I especially want to mention the kind nature of the gentleman working behind the counter. This is a CASH ONLY restaurant and when I wasn’t sure if I had cash on me (after already ordering), he said “don’t worry about it, brother if you don’t have it, you can pay next time“. This is the small time vibe that I’ve grown to love and Laguna.
The star of the menu is undoubtedly their beef lamb gyro. Perfectly seasoned meat, tender and juicy, wrapped in warm, fresh pita with just the right balance of tzatziki, crisp vegetables, and herbs. Each bite delivers an explosion of flavor that kept me coming back for more.
The atmosphere strikes that delicate balance between casual and upscale, making it perfect for both special occasions and impromptu lunch visits. Service is attentive without being intrusive, and the staff's knowledge of the menu demonstrates a genuine passion for the cuisine.
Don't miss their house-made baklava for dessert – the perfect sweet ending to a memorable meal. Adonis has secured its place as my go-to Mediterranean, quick-bite in Orange County. Whether you're a local or just passing through Laguna Beach, this is a dining experience not to be missed.

Halal spot ; I visited this place in October while I was in Laguna Beach and decided to stop by. It's a cute little restaurant with pretty reasonable prices. The only downside is that it's cash-only, so you'll need to withdraw money from the ATM machine inside, which charges a $1 fee per transaction.
Aside from that, the experience was great! The server was a nice and pleasant guy, and the shawarma was hot and super delicious. Definitely planning to stop by again whenever I'm in Laguna Beach!
Great service and chicken wrap is amazing
