“We stumbled upon this gem while visiting for a trade show. Looking for a fresh, nourishing salad we wandered into Kareem’s. Not only was the food beyond our expectations (falafels to die for) but Nora and her Motger were delightful hosts! We will be back and maybe even again tomorrow night!“
“City of Paramount and local restaurants partnered up and gave away $50 gift cards. Lucky for me I scored on one, took advantage and chose Fatima's to finally try it out. The Downey location is always packed so I was happy to see a new location closer to me and hope I'd like it. My chile relleno burrito did not disappoint! I recently tried one at a different restaurant and felt the relleno was pointless and was not impressed. Fatima's burrito changed my perspective on that and the chile relleno with all the cheese was life! 4/5 only thing I wish they had was a good spicy/hot salsa to pair with it. I snagged the roasted hot jalapeno off my friends Chicken Kabob plate. Chicken 4/5 was good, juicy & flavor able but the rice 2/5 I was not a fan of. Tried the Birria Taco 3/5 they are generous with the meat because it came in 2 tortillas I was able to make 2 tacos out of the 1 and share it. The fish taco here was not to our liking. I do look forward to returning and trying other menu items. Also had good service.“

“Have been coming to LBX for a while now to try new things and I can definitely say that this is now one of my favorite places to go to. Shout out to Jesus for being extremely nice and recommending me a dish that was absolutely delicious! I will definitely be coming back and bringing my friends and family along with me next time.“
“I went for some mole chilaquiles and they were super delicious. Reminded me of my Mama Lolitas mole. She made the best in Boyle Heights...memories of my mom when she was here on earth. Now, i know where i can find a bit of my mom's spirit. Thank you and Blessings to this heavenly spot. Great food. Loved it and will go back again.“

“I’m so so sorry for all those that miss out on this little gem tucked away in this little strip mall cause you’re certainly missing out on some of the best Mediterranean food I’ve had in ages. Superblylicious!!! The place is small and very unassuming and in fact I thought I had walked in the wrong place if not for the yummalicious smell of the food in the air that had pulled me further in…my son picked this place out but I’d been wanting to try it for several months. I had the Lamb kabab dinner my son had the steak and then ordered a chicken kabab on the side. They were so delicious and tender I will order all 3 again. Yep. All THREE and share. Oh oh…the Garlic potatoes are off the rocker. So Ah-May-Zing! One order is enough for 2 people. But let’s talk hummus…seriously let’s talk. I love hummus and they do hummus. 5 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ for the hummus. So to recap we ordered the kabab dinner which are served over a huge bed of fluffy flavored rice with a grilled onion and tomato, huge serving of hummus ❤️ plus pita bread, salad, pickled spicy onions and the best garlic dip EHVERRRR! They have wraps, bowls and all kinds of items. The food is done right and I’m already planning to go back this week. They have 2 other locations. The one in Long Beach is a larger restaurant that is a larger dine in serves wine and beer. Going to try there too.“
“So much to choose from! So happy two gentlemen outside recommended this one over the other place a couple doors down I was considering! I ordered a veggie baked potato with a side salad and I could not finish everything! $10!!! No added protein for me but there were plenty of options for additional $$. Ambiance- one table indoors, the rest is all outdoor, which was decent. I ate with no inconvenience at all! I was planning on getting a smoothie or fresh Agua Fresca after I was done but I was too full! They also have sandwiches/panini's and burgers, so something for everyone! Great service, smiles and kind help for the newbie! I appreciated their patience.“
“It's always seemed to me that chain restaurants tend to be best right after they've opened up, and that's definitely the case here. Zankou Chicken is always good but this new location seemed just slightly better than the older ones. The food came out immediately and yet it was hot and fresh, like it had just been made. My only complaint is the complaint I have about Zankou in general, which is their portion size. Their quarter dark meat chicken plates are too small, but a half chicken would be too much (and I don't like white meat anyway, so it would be wasted on me). I always leave a Zankou still somewhat hungry, and that shouldn't happen, not with the prices they're charging. Please, Zankou, offer a three-piece chicken option! Either that, or get bigger chickens! The chicken legs you use are tiny!“
“Food was delicious & portions were quite large for the price. They have a big variety of options for all diets. It is s a bit loud & my only problem is that they served us an agua fresca that was about 1/4th foam. We would definitely come back, though!Wheelchair accessibility: Lots of space! Movable tables!“
“Admittedly, I've not tried the food yet but I had to come and leave a review about my recent experience. I placed an order online and the. Went today to pick it up. The two ladies in there working were exceptionally friendly and accommodating. Bonus points for them answering all of my questions with care and also for letting me know to not put these meals directly into the freezer. Also, I had no problem with picking up my order. They were open and there was no delay or wait time. I can't wait to try my first meal for dinner and am looking forward to returning very soon.“
“I didn't know what to get..I allowed the cashier to recommend one of her favorites and I got it... Delicious ? I should have got water to drink with it. She did ask if I wanted their lemonade (I'll try next time) but instead I got the hibiscus tea...which was probably more healthy than tasty...“
“I'll start off why I didn't give 5 stars. TOO MUCH SODIUM. I suppose this may be the reason why the meals are so good lol. It's a must to ensure you drink a lot of water if these meals are your go-to like they've become mine. My favs are the turkey taco bowl, and chicken shawarma. The last two times I went, unfortunately the chicken shawarma was out of stock which was a bummer. I do appreciate the buy 5 get 1 free and the discount for cumulative points. I think the meals are fairly priced and affordable so I hope they don't increase. If they could use less sodium they would definitely have 5 stars from me!“
“Omar provided the most excellent and warm customer service I have experienced in a long time. Not only was the food great but the customer service was even better. My family almost ordered everything off the menu and we enjoyed everything. The shakes are the best !“
