Split a mixed kabob plate and 4 pcs of the worlds best fluffy light falafal and wonderful tabouli with my adult son for lunch. Great service, great food, reasonably priced. Be mindful they are closed between lunch and dinner.

Family owned and operated with care! Three sisters run the restaurant, they are incredibly kind and friendly while the food is absolutely delicious! The beef kebab is unmatched - flavor, juiciness, and quality is out of this world!

I am addicted to the sahara fries. I have been there 3 times and everytime I say that I will be trying a new dish but their sahara fries (half cream chop and half chicken shawerma) always seem to be calling my name, the atmosphere gives a very casual semi fast food vibe but the food is quality. HIGHLY recommend this place.

Great place for delicious and authentic Mediterranean food. They have lunch plates that come with rice, hummus, and salad, and you get to choose the type of kebab meat. The beef was very juicy and tender. The staff are very friendly and welcoming, treating everyone like family. You order at the counter and they bring the food out to you.

A fantastic family run restaurant. The skewers are cooked over charcoal - giving it a nice smoky flavor. The meats are Feay and tender. The rice is buttery and perfect. I come here so often the staff knows what I order. Really friendly and great food.

It's very pricey, and food gave all an upset stomach and more. Hadn't been there in year's. The rice is ricearoni. I thought it would be like Massis or Raffis in glendale. I was wrong. Never again.

We came here with my wife's local family, who come here often. The med food was fresh and filling, and the baklava was different but good. we also tried a Lebanese beer.
