The team members are always so friendly and attentive, and the restaurant is consistently clean and well-organized.

“Stopped in here today and glad we did. This is a very comfortable open air patio restaurant with outstanding food.

My wife had the chicken kabob plate and I had the beef plate. They were very tasty. Even the rice was very flavorful. My favorite was the beef shish kabob. It was tender with really good flavor.

The staff was friendly and helpful.

Overall a great experience!“

“Had a great experience at The Kebab Shop! The manager, Juan, was super helpful and welcoming—great customer service makes all the difference. I ordered the grilled chicken bowl and it was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The bathrooms were clean, which is always a plus in my book. Even though they opened a new location in Santa Clarita, this one remains top tier—the taste here is always on point. Definitely my go-to spot!“

“todo está súper rico de verda selos recomindo yummy 😋“

“Very nice meals. Good luck!“

“The food is amazing! I will definitely be going back. If you go for lunch order ahead, they make everything fresh.“

“Came on a Saturday to enjoy Mediterranean BBQ. Staff was amicable, a little slow in serving and taking orders and came to our table with someone else's order. I would highly recommend they do a number system (assign table number to customers for staff to reduce confusion). It was decent food, spices and grilled veggies were good. Chicken was a little thick and hard to cook all the way through those meats. Steak was a bit dry. Seasoned fries and hummus, Pita bread was good. Ambiance was settle, no music or noises. A little pricy but portions are good. Clean establishment. Parking can be a little tight in the parking lot.“

“I was leaving the shopping center and saw this new restaurant so I turned around and went in . The Manager Greated me as I came in his name was Carlos , he was incredibly helpful with the menu and how it worked, he was incredibly generous with his time and helped the entire time I was there eating . The Food was really good, the menu had lots of options . I would recommend to anyone that likes Greek still Food . Carlos made eating there a Great Experience I’ll be back for sure“

“Serra is amazing! and so is her food!“

“The food here is really delicious! Everything tastes fresh and full of flavor, and you can tell they put care into how it’s made. The people who work here are super sweet and friendly, which makes the experience even better.
The only downside is that the prices feel a bit on the higher side for a kebob stand. Still, the quality and taste definitely make it worth trying. Overall, great food and great service!“

“Have you ever entered a business and immediately feel like you just walked into your home where family is waiting to greet you? That was the very feeling I had when I stopped by the NoHo Cafe today. I knew the food was good as I used the delivery service before. Today I decided to visit the Cafe and I promise I’ll continue going frequently. The food is delicious but what won me over was the welcome and love you experience when you walk in the door. The staff is amazing... the Cafe has a very “welcome home” atmosphere. The complimentary cup of soup is AWESOME. I sat at a corner table allowing me to do what I love...watch people. As I enjoyed my delicious first meal of 2020 I watched as every person who entered was treated with care and joy. Just like being home the staff will keep checking to see if the food is ok and if you need anything. The NoHo Cafe is a place I recommend to anyone wishing to enjoy a good meal and to experience a “welcome home” feeling. Thank you NoHo Cafe for starting my 2020 with a reminder of the importance of kindness.“

“If I could give this place 10 stars I would. My husband and I love trying new places. We found this place on the hunt for the best khinkalis. We visited the actual store front first. The woman helping us could not have been more helpful, patient, and kind. I do sometimes look a bit Armenian which leads people to assume I can speak Armenian or Russian which is always a good laugh. She made excellent suggestions and gave us a very accurate timeframe of how long it would take to prepare. Since then we have ordered via UberEats 2x more and each time things were EXPERTLY packaged - literally the nicest to-go bag and perfectly portioned condiments. We were blown away. The food itself is so flavorful and the ingredients are high quality and you can tell they take pride in what they do.“

“After the 4th restaurant in Tujunga failed to make good Shawarma, I thought I would have to drive all the way to Glendale for the only good Shawarma I know, that I get from a food truck. I didn't know Shawarma House existed until today. The dine in place is nice and spacious, the service was kind, and for the first time in Tujunga that I know of, this a restaurant that didn't serve dry wraps with no garnishes.“

“Delicious dishes! Everything is recommended! But if you twist my arm, I'd say try the beef or chicken shawarma sandwich.“

“Coffee was delicious! And another time wine was awesome! Michal was attending to us and he was polite and helpful!“

“11/13/25
My name is Jon and today was my first time visiting Lemonzest. Mediterranean food is my favorite and I am extremely happy that I accidentally found this location while walking by it. I was immediately greeted by the two team members who both had amazing energy that made me feel welcomed!! The music and atmosphere was perfect for anyone to relax while simply enjoying lunch or dinner. Of course, the food... mmm mmm! I am in love with how delicious the food was. The rice was light and flavorful, the chicken was very tender, and the salad was perfectly fresh. For sure Lemonzest will be my first choice when I am too lazy to cook at home.
To the team members, thank you! I will be back soon.
Jon.“

“The food in this establishment is absolutely delicious. My favorites are the smash burger and cheesesteak!! I never thought I would find a burger that topped my all time fave (cali people will know the one) but this burger was tooooo amazing!! Check it out if you haven't already.“

“Best burgers in LA... come here at least once a month“

“Most delicious food you can ask for“

“Omg the most delicious breakfast I have ever had , mr jamshid is the kindest person, thank you always and appreciate your neatness for this wonderful restaurant“

“This spot is one of my go-tos when I want something quick but still really good. Everything tastes fresh, portions are solid, and the setup makes it easy to get exactly what you want. Jay stood out with his service—he was welcoming, patient, and just made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. It’s always nice when someone like Jay makes you feel appreciated as a customer. Definitely a place I’ll keep coming back to.“

“Nice food, cooperative staff“

“The Shawarmins are awesome! Very friendly and cool owners. HEY Guys! It's ME!“

“I was eyeballing this place for months, finally went and got #1 pork chops and it was just as good as I hoped. 2 big pieces of pork, well done, fluffy soft rice, the pepper & tomato were juicy (everthin just needed a little salt). It's a small place with about 10 tables inside. Lady at the front was nice, wait time is min 15min & prices are fair for the big portion. Located on the corner with parking. Will definitely be back to try the beef kabob.“

“Wonderful, fresh and yummy meat, and great veggies (potatoes and eggplant). All was well packaged and arrived safely.They delivered to our house which was super convenient as well and included yogurt/cucumber drinks. Overall, great service and nice folks! We'll happily order again!“
