Jenny was very friendly and professional, and made the whole experience smooth and welcoming. I’ll definitely be back!“

“I had a great experience at CAVA thanks to Danna and Analeen. From the moment I walked in, they were both friendly, welcoming, and attentive. They took their time to make sure my order was prepared correctly and answered my questions with a positive attitude. Even during a busy time, they stayed professional, efficient, and provided excellent customer service. It’s clear they care about creating a great experience for customers. Their kindness and energy made my visit enjoyable, and I’ll definitely be coming back. Thank you, Danna and Analeen, for going above and beyond!“

“Healthy and Delicious! Luna Grill is my go-to when I want something that is absolutely tasty and makes me feel good. Their chicken, beef, (shrimp at some locations), salads, hummus, and warm pita slices provide a great source of protein, with flavorful Mediterranean seasoning. Their staff is always friendly and helpful - the location I take my elderly mother to always remembers to bring me an extra plate so we can share a platter (there’s plenty) without me asking. Food is made fresh to order in kitchens that always look clean. Get full and healthy here!“

“In town for business and DoorDash ordered the Skewers Mixed Grill platter. The portion was huge and everything in the platter were super delicious! I'm definitely ordering again from this Aladdin restaurant.

“This terrific restaurant has been my go-to choice for Mediterranean food in the Whittier-La Mirada area for years. Their plates are pretty to look at and filling. Today my wife and I split a kofta plate and a lamb pita sandwich. The kofta in a particular was wonderfully spiced and tender. Though we did not order it today, they have the best falafel. They also do a great job with large catering orders. We've used them for parties in the past, and our guests always came away happy“

“This is a food truck with several tables available if you want to eat there or you can take the food to go. The food is fresh and delicious. The staff is friendly and helpful. I LOVE this place.“

“First time here and what a delicious surprise. Ordered a Mediterranean chicken Doner Wrap and it was great. Decent portion, the combination of ingredients plus the garlic aioli sauce made my day.
And also the servers were so attentive too.
Highly recommended!“

“Amazing place and great people! The taste of the foods were impeccable. We went near the closing time and unfortunately the food served was cold. When I told them about it, they made a new one! Shows how well they care for their customers. Will definitely go back soon. Their Jerusalem bread+chicken shwarma is to die for 😁😁😁“

“Food is consistently good, service is great, had the chicken kebab and Barramundi plate, both were excellent. Will be back!“

“Good food and good service“

“The food was INCREDIBLE! Very large portions and fresh, healthy choices for all ages. We will definitely come here regularly after our first visit!“

“The Best of Mediterranean“

“Great food and great service!!“

“Great place and healthy food . Portion is big too“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Best Mediterranean food I’ve had in a very long time.“

“Delicious food! We loved it !“

“First time eating here. The food was fire! So fresh and delicious. The girl taking orders was very helpful and answered all of my questions. I ordered a build your own bowl. My base was French fries and Romaine salad. I got feta cheese to make feta fries. In my salad I kept all of the toppings it comes with from tomatoes, cucumber, pickled onions (the BEST here), and more. I added cilantro jalapeno humus, Caesar dressing on the side, kalamata olives, feta cheese, jalapeño, red onions and pita crumbles. For Protein I got the Chicken Shawarma and added extra protein-Shrimp. The shrimp was the star of the show. They were big, plump, deveined, grilled and seasoned to perfection! It also came with a thick, soft pita. One of my friends ordered a shawarma chicken wrap and it was huge. 2 other friends ordered the plate. The plate only comes with the protein and 2 selections and they got rice and veggies with a pita. The bowl and wrap are the best options.
I gave the atmosphere a 3 because the seats are hard seats and it’s not too warm and comfy but the food is worth it. I’m also glad they have Coke brand and also Poppi can drinks and bottled sparkling water.“

“The food is amazing! You can’t be the quality of the ingredients.“

“I was referred this hidden gem by a friend to try their bakery, namely the “Laham be ajeen” aka (Safiha) but I was tempted to try their spinach pies, which turned out to be a great idea. Family enjoyed the pies more than the famous bakeries of Brookhurst of Anaheim. I have bought some Baraze’ too but unfortunately they seemed to have been slightly under-cooked so I had to give them a little bit of toasting. Maybe it’s a personal choice of mine to have sesame on baraze’ cookies a bit darker and more toasty.
Their cooking menu is good. I would order in advance.
In the small grocery section, I was surprised to find some middle eastern delicacies at a decent price such as the coveted brown truffles in brine. I filled up 😎

While they have a couple of tables, I didn’t feel it was suitable to sit. The view is the parking lot and other businesses.“

“We love love your restaurant!! You have the best grilled chicken ever!! We dine here about twice a month. We love Paris she is a fantastic server. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience every time. ❤️“

“I loved the people helping they were fantastic and knew what they were talking about when it came to the excellence of Mediterranean cuizine. On TOP of that, the space is very neat and well organized. Overall very accommodating and excellent service.“

“We ordered the spicy hummus, garlic fries, beef shawarma, babakenush?, and cauliflower. My friend saw the baclava and had to try it. So we started with desser. The pistachio was very crispy and chewy and was my friends favorite. The walnut was sweet and chewy which was my favorite. Everything was absolutely delicious! The spicy hummus had a little kick at the beginning but as we ate we didn't taste the kick anymore. The cauliflower is lightly fried and so freaking delicious! I ate it by itself or with some hummus. My friend ate it with the babakanush and some cauliflower sauce and was in love. I tried her babakanush. I don't like eggplant but this was really delicious! Had a lovely garlic flavor that was slightly addicting. The garlic fries was just fries sprinkled with garlic powder but dipped it in the hummus and it was good. The pitas were really good too. I could've eaten more if I wasn't so full. But the beef shawarma was freaking AMAZING!!!!! We both said this was the best Mediterranean food we've ever had. I said no tomatoes to my beef shawarma which I'm glad I did. The flavor was absolutely amazing without it. Definitely 10/10 no complaints at all. And service was awesome too! So kind, friendly, and funny. I can't wait to come back again!“

“It was really goooooooood☺️“

“good and healthy food and very delicious too.“

“I visited Nick The Greek in Yorba Linda and had such a great experience!

We ordered the Gyro Plate, Greek Salad, Beef Gyro, and the Mediterranean Bowl, and every single dish was absolutely delicious. The flavors were fresh, well-balanced, and everything tasted authentic. The portions were also very satisfying.

One thing that really surprised me was that they even have Pistachio Cream Dubai Chocolate ice cream, which was such a unique and tasty dessert option!

The kitchen looked very clean, the staff were friendly and welcoming, and the overall atmosphere was great.

I will definitely be coming back next time. If you're looking to try authentic and flavorful Greek food, I highly recommend this place!“

“Went yesterday with my Daughters and can I say the food was so amazing. It was everything I hoped it to be. We came all the way from L. A and it was worth the drive. We will definitely be back! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥“
