“The best place to try Bosnian food! I can’t pick one favorite, from cevapi to pizza to pita , this food taste like homemade. All employees are nice and friendly, but the owner is an amazing human being, so humble and approachable, honest and relatable, love chatting with him every time we visit Cali, which is usually 2-3 times a year and we make sure we eat lunch and dinner at Sofra Urbana every day. See you soon! Can’t wait for the most delicious Bosnian food on the west side of the United States.“

“Amazing food and customer service!! Everything is always fresh and delicious.“

“Last Sunday, we went here after church and it really was divine. We like the Mediterranean salad, lamb chops and rice pudding. Most of all we liked the service provided by Jesus.

“😀This restaurant is awesome, the food tastes great, the ingredients are made fresh daily from scratch, and the menu is so rich with a lot of varieties you will love, especially the reasonably priced dishes. The service is top notch, and the chef, Mr Cotch is the best. The atmosphere is very pleasant and inviting, it's a great place to have events and parties, dine in, or call and order by phone. I highly recommend it to everyone who enjoys authentic middle eastern cuisine. Cheers.“

“AMAZING Mediteranean food!! If we lived near here, we would dine at Georgie's often! The steak and chicken kebab as well as the shrimp were perfectly seasoned and cooked! As a delicious accent our family feasted on tasty rice, Mediterranean salad, cucumber yogurt salad, and grape leaf rolls. To top off a wonderful meal, we ordered their walnut baklava...WOW! The staff were kind and patient, very friendly. Don't miss out on this restaurant!“

“Love love love the food , great dinner I fly out here just for this place“

“Good mediterranean food can be hard to find, so, when visiting California, I’d definitely recommend stopping by this place. Located in an industrial strip mall this small but quaint restaurant is tucked away amongst other businesses, and with no signage above the doors it can easily be missed.

I ordered the salmon kebab with grilled vegetables instead of rice. Chucks of salmon squares served on skewers and separated by grilled vegetables was a visual masterpiece. The salmon was cooked perfectly and tasted amazing as did the grilled vegetables. The dish was served along side hummus, a side salad and pita bread.

I did find the pita bread a little more crisper and flaker than I’m accustomed to and it did lack a bit of flavor. With that said, I throughly enjoyed my meal.

Kudos, to the entire staff. Specifically, Lucy, her enthusiasm, personality and professional demeanor was great. She truly understands the criticality of providing exceptional customer service.“

“Alas, a local place with unique charm, expert staff and a creative menu. We will be back often.“

“Was there for lunch and thoroughly enjoyed the food. Very tasty and just the right amount..and price, too!“

“Great ambiance and amazing food. I had a lot of food… falafel, spicy hummus, kafta kabob, tzatziki loaded with veggies, cheese balls, and baklava. All so delicious and fresh. I even loved the fresh pita and dipping sauce that was complimentary. From the manager and many servers, everyone was pleasant and friendly throughout my time there. I went during happy hour so the specials were great during that time. I’m definitely returning to this Mediterranean restaurant for sure. I loved it.“

“generous portions and very patient and kind staff! and the food is great too!“

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

“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.“

“Bright, airy restaurant that is larger inside than appears from outside. Plenty of parking in the shopping center lot, although you may have to walk a bit when all of the eating places are crowded. Typical SoCal ordering set-up with menu board above the order station. Make your choices, pay, find a table, and wait for your order. You can get your self-serve drink and condiments while you're waiting. Service is generally good with some enthusiastic staff. Food is very good. We shared a chicken schwarma plate with hummus and pita. We added on sides of another hummus and pita. Note that hummus and pita count as 2 sides here. The hummus was good and generous. The pita was grilled and was that lovely fluffy Greek style pita. The schwarma was tender, tasty, juicy, and covered in drippings. I wasn't into spicy, so I got the OG garlic sauce. Deliciously subtle. Prices are reasonable for these days. I noticed another store closer to where we live. Good to know.“

“Delicious turkish kebap (kabob), döner, lahmacun, meze plates, and desserts! And the most important dish of all, iskender kebap ("Alexander kebab" )! My favorite! 😛 Just be careful about the pepper 🌶️ that comes with the iskender... it's spicy 🔥

The sitting area is small but comfortable and they also have some outdoor seating.“

“I love the Salmon bowl! I’m attracted to the Kids eat free Mon-Thursday. I like the kids play area. It’s inside or outside. I will be back for many terrific reasons!“

“Food Was Good! I ordered the Chicken Parmesan Pasta it was very tasty! The chicken had a good flavor and the pasta was filling!We picked up a Strawberry Matcha Latte and a Dubai Chocolate Tart on our way out , the latte was just ok for me but the tart was so gooooddd I will be going back to try different drinks on the menu along with different food options also ordering process can improve it felt crowded and servers kept passing by saying excuse me space and seating is limited!“

“The food is delicious and the restaurant is simple and nice. Service is good.
They also offer a buffet for Iftar on weekdays during the holy month of Ramadan. However, we reached late on that day and hence will be going there again to try the buffet.

Vegetarian options: The appetizers have a lot of vegetarian options - Fatoush, Tabbouleh, Cheese Sambousik, Hummus, Falafel, breads.“

“Best ever kabob&desserts. Quality Service Ambient Best flavor food!!! Try once & never stop😋“

“Amazing food, nice friendly atmosphere!“

“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.“

“The BEST pita chips and hummus!“

“I love love love love Luna Grill. Service is excellent thank you Nadja very nice good atmosphere and the food is delicious very fresh and tasty.“

“They have very friendly staff and the food is fantastic.“

“Great food always served fresh. Highly recommended!“

“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.“

“Healthy, delicious, affordable, nice, super clean, fast and excellent service! What else you can ask,.. well maybe close to my house. LOL.I live in Tustin, but hummus Republic it's a perfect place to hang out with friends and family. Everyone can get what they want.. My son loves the pita sandwich with Morrocan steak or lamb and beef, my daughter the lemon chicken, I love the bowls with those delicious and tasty hummus , basically everything there!“

“Food was so good we ate here on our 7 day vacation in California, we drove to San Diego and drove back just to get more. 10/10 will return back when I come California again inshallah. The grill tomato with onion is so good and the meat cooked very good. Great service too, very kind staff.

Only downside is the outdated seats and tables

May Allah bless this business , Ameen ??

Dietary restrictions: Mediterranean Food is best for people with health problems , they serve low sodium food with everything cooked with olive oil instead of vegetable oil, very healthy!“

“Nice place, arabic environment, hookahs, mix grill, arabic tea and coffee, Barbican and some old Egyptian sodas. Capacious place with out door, in-tent, and indoor places. Staying as late as 2am!! People are friendly, good new administration.“

“Tried out your Cerritos location, I lived in LA almost 3years and food especially the kebab wrap was the best by far and I have tried different kebab place’s before in LA. One of the best Kebab place in America, the lamb was moist and very tasty with great flavors, the combination of the hummus, salad, fries combined with the lamb was delicious, the fresh flat bread was soft and crispy on the outside. Add the garlic yogurt sauce wow your tastebuds explodes in your mouth, the food was very lite and not heavy like most kebab place so they got the right balance by using the flat bread and not pita bread that most place use on the wrap Well done this place remind me of a place back home in New Zealand. I give The Kebab shop in Cerritos 10/10 Highly Recommend this place to my friends and family and different locations in America. Will go again and try something different on the menu.“

“Absolutely fantastic food!“

“My tummy is so full and happy. The staff was so very friendly (cashier). Definitely coming back!“

“Love this place. Their Tabouleh is the Best.I am so happy I only live one mile away.“

“Very pleasant experience here! From the friendly accommodating staff, to the very delicious well prepared fish, it was a treat!! Best fish I’ve ever had! I look forward to coming back! 5⭐️“

“We love love your restaurant!! You have the best grilled chicken ever!! We dine here about twice a month. We love Paris she is a fantastic server. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience every time. ❤️“

“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 !!!“

“Golden Olive in Huntington Beach is a hidden gem—authentic, family-run, and absolutely worth it. We had the grilled Singari sea bass, sea bream, fried calamari, and shrimp—everything was fresh, perfectly cooked, and full of flavor. Portions were big and satisfying, and the owner and his wife were incredibly welcoming and genuinely kind. You can feel the love in both the food and the atmosphere. If you're craving real Mediterranean seafood, this is the spot.“

“My wife and I realized that we had not thought to stop here in quite a while and so we stopped for lunch today and we were immediately reminded why we like the food here so much. I like the chicken kabob wrap and my wife typically gets the chicken bowl. The staff is friendly and helpful and the food is consistently good. We will definitely have to keep the Hummus Factory on our regular list of places to visit for lunch and dinner. A photo of the chicken bowl shows just how appetizing it looks.“

“I’ve been eating Zankou chickens since they opened their first location. Recently after relocating to Huntington Beach I ate at the local Zankou on Beach Boulevard a couple of times in early 2024 and was pleased with the food. However, this last time, December 2924, after they have changed their menu options with more to choose from, the beef Shawarma did not taste nearly as good, and the garlic sauce seemed to be several days old. Not what I’m used to.“
