“I usually get the chicken kebab plate or grill chicken plate but today I tried the lamb plate.I like lamb but it’s usually a bit too gamy for me.. this lamb was beyond extraordinary! Not gamy whatsoever! The flavor was immaculate! This has changed my life forever! Try it for yourself and I promise you won’t be disappointed!“
“Stepping into Seasoning Alley for breakfast turned out to be one of the best dining decisions we’ve ever made! The atmosphere was inviting, with a cozy vibe that set the perfect tone for a morning feast. My wife opted for the waffles, and I can safely say they were nothing short of spectacular. Each bite was a perfect blend of crisp on the outside and fluffy on the inside, drizzled with just the right amount of syrup to sweeten our morning.I decided to try something a bit different and went for the egg roll, and oh, was it a revelation! The flavors were perfectly balanced, with each ingredient standing out yet complementing the others beautifully. It was, without a doubt, one of the most delicious breakfast items I’ve had in a long time.Seasoning Alley didn’t just serve us food; they provided an experience that was both heartwarming and satisfying. It’s a must-visit spot for anyone looking to start their day on a delicious note. We’re already looking forward to our next visit to try more of their delectable offerings. Highly recommended!“
“One of the best places to eat Middle Eastern food in Los Angeles is Sahara Restaurant in Pasadena! ? I've been coming here since the 90s. The kebabs, hummus, tabbouleh, and Greek salad are my absolute favorites. Everything I've ever tried here is made fresh, yummy, and super delicious. ? The staff is friendly and attentive to your needs. They have an open-concept kitchen, so you can see them cooking all the food when you order at the counter. ?️ My family and I usually like coming here to have lunch on Saturdays before 3:00 PM (they close from 3:00-5:00 PM Mon-Sat, then reopen from 5:00 - 8:00 PM for the dinner crowd, closed on Sundays). They have parking in the back and two spaces for parking on the side of the restaurant. It's a fantastic place to relax and enjoy delicious food with family and friends. I highly recommend it! ?Parking: They have parking in the back of the restaurnt and 2 parking spots on the side, check signs for street parking in front of the restaurantWheelchair accessibility: They have a door large enough to accomodate a wheelchair“
“Lets see, where do I begin the SUPERLATIVE Impressions I got from this Sweet, Wholesome, Amazingly Mouthwatering Little Restaurant named "Mediterranean Grill". Now dont be fooled by its simple name. They have a lot of Soul and Heart: Charming, Quaint Location with plenty of Parking. Scrumptiously DELICIOUS, flavorful food; FRESH, Quality Ingredients. The Cleanliness of the whole Place is comforting, with a great flow of Feng Shui lol including the spotless Restroom. Coz you know Girls gotta go several times haha and Finally, the Piece the Resistance lol Management and Service. EDDIE the Manager slash Owner (Im assuming lol) is Such a Great and Pure Hearted Man of God. A Great Leader. With the most Positive, Welcoming, engaging, Kind Attitude to All the customers. I saw him delegating Tasks to his Employees and hes very well Respected. His ELEGANCE in professionalism and the attention to Detail is Exceptional. When I told Him how I wanted my Food in a certain way, he made it to grand PERFECTION. He even made sure to ask me "Did we get it Right, Miss? Do You like it?" To which I answered I LOVE IT. And I Love him, and I love this Place. And lemme tell You, as this is a very BOLD CLAIM to make, but Hey Im a Bold Woman. And I can say it with great CONFIDENCE, this is the best Mediterranean Place in all of Pasadena, perhaps even Los Angeles. Better than Raffi's in Glendale lol Yea I said it. Better than Zankous Chicken, and def Better than Cafe X20 . And trust me all these other places aforementioned are all Good! But "Mediterranean Grill" trumps All of them. You know the Saying "YOU COME for the FOOD, but you Come Back for the SERVICE" well it doesnt get any True-er and better than this wonderful, full of food Dopamine, Satisfying Food, and positive Aura place. Why? Coz Im DEF coming back. And if I cant make it, Im def ordering for Delivery.“
“We’ve ordered takeout multiple times here, and it’s a great neighborhood spot. The food is legitimately and consistently fresh and seasoned wonderfully.It’s so nice to have a place to eat that is affordable and actually good and satisfying to eat.We look forward to eating here more often, thank you for feeding us so well! Please don’t change!“
“There is not very much seating in the inside and it's a very small space. Luckily it was a nice day outside, so we ate there. The Lulu plate was very good. Great seasoned beef matched perfectly with the rice. The chicken gyro was just okay. I like having tzatziki sauce in the gyro and it was not present. Instead, they make theirs with a sauce similar to mayonnaise, so I don't recommend that unless you prefer a more mayo flavor. Overall, good service and sizeable portions.“
“Very surprised by the quality. Ordered the ground chicken kebab (koobideh) and the white meat chicken kebab. The flavor and quality was great. Getting chicken Koobideh to be flavorful is an uphill battle since it’s just ground chicken. This was beautifully seasoned, charred and juicy. Generous portions of beautifully cooked rice with salad and grilled vegetables and pita bread round it all out for a very competitive price in this inflation age. I wish there was an M Grill closer to where I live in Joshua Tree.“
“We had some delicious shawarma platters! The number of combinations you can make with the sides and upgrade to the fattoush salad is great. We had one chicken shawarma platter with rice, babaganoush, and labneh and one chicken shawarma platter with fattoush salad, garlic paste, and pita chips. All of it was very tasty. The garlic Toum was particularly good, as was the fattoush salad. Each platter comes with two thin pitas (the best kind). The shawarma was a more stewed chicken with onions and tomatoes than the usual kind of dry shredded off the skewer but it was so flavorful! Maybe best not to get it on rice because the ice absorbs all the liquid. We also got a cilantro jalapeno hummus that had a tiny bit of a kick. Everything was good, and the people were very friendly. We will have to come back to try more things!“
“Staff that cares! Great place. Wonderful food. Seems lately customer service is a thing of the past. NOT here. The staff if Friendly, they accommodate seating requests if possible. I get cold , so not sitting outside or by the door makes for a better dining experience.They do keep the door open for outside diners, which can be chilly for those on the inside.They are very knowledgeable in wine selection and know how to pair well with the entrées.One super bonus, lots of gluten free selections!!!Dietary restrictions: They offer many tasty gluten and vegetarian options. I'm neither, but my sister is gluten sensitive, and this was a fav of hers.“
