Awesome, authentic Lebanese food, great service - overall excellent place. Adding to our list of go to restaurants.Hummus is excellent and authentic, spicy fries were great, all of the kabobs and mains were on point, and the rice was the best. Reminds me of living in the Middle East - this is the first place we’ve found in LA that actually tastes the same.Service was very accommodating. Changed the temperature of the restaurant to make us comfortable, did a special surprise for dessert.Love this place and can’t say enough good things about it.
Amazing shawarma and very nice staff. Would highly recommend!

Overpriced and small portions. I was the only customer and they still got my order wrong. Ridiculously slow service. It took over 20 minutes to receive my 1 item, AND IT WAS WRONG. Never again.

Stay far away from this place. After $26 and 30 minutes, I was handed a tiny tray of cold food that tasted terrible. I ended up throwing it all away and eating fried eggs for dinner. I don't know if they did me dirty because they expected a tip on my take-out order, or if they're just always this bad, but they shouldn't be in business either way.

I have been coming here for over a decade and the food amazingly keeps getting better every time!!! It's insane. The owner busts his butt working the shop alone half the time. My cousins are Lebanese so I grew up with these specific Mediterranean spices and it brings me to my childhood every time. The portions are amazing and it's always ready on time. I've been getting take away since covid but he's reopened the dining area. Sitting in their outdoor seating area on a nice day is really lovely as well. Great service. Great food. Never disappoints.

First time here. Waitress was lovely. Beef Shish Ka Bob was grilled fresh, turned out somewhat dry, we prefer juicy medium rare. Took a while to receive our kabob skewers. Baba ghanoosh was tasty, but we asked for more lemon. Nice neighborhood restaurant, stick w. already prepared items, if you're in a rush.

Best Lebanese food around! The Vegan plate is amazing and the falafel is so tasty and generous portions. I highly recommend.

I recently dined at Playa's Pita restaurant, and it was an absolute delight! The service was impeccable; the staff was attentive and friendly, making us feel right at home. The food was a true culinary masterpiece, bursting with authentic flavors and prepared to perfection. The ambiance transported me to the heart of the Middle East with its warm, inviting decor and soothing music. A must-visit for anyone looking to savor Middle Eastern cuisine in a cozy atmosphere!
What a gem of a Playa's Pita restaurant! The service was top-notch, and the staff's knowledge of the menu was impressive. I couldn't get enough of the food; each dish was a tantalizing journey of flavors that left my taste buds dancing with joy. The ambiance was a perfect blend of cozy and exotic, creating an atmosphere that was both romantic and inviting. A wonderful place to indulge in Middle Eastern cuisine while enjoying exceptional service and ambiance.
