“Food is excellent. Ordered the chicken thigh kabob and they were juicy and perfect amount of seasoning. We dined in and the portions were a lot. Get the grilled tomato! The pink dressing (I think they use beets) was a nice change. It’s not a fancy place, but it’s clean and employees were very polite. Would go back to try other menu items.“

“Love this place, my go to. I’m a vegan and there is a huge amount of option for me. The reward program is really awesome too. Today, I was served by Becky, Jenny and Savannah, all of whom were incredibly courteous and efficient. Sometimes when it’s very busy the line can be a bit of a slog (still worth the wait!) but these three had me zooming through!“

“This was my third visit to this location, and today was by far my favorite experience. Ruby was incredibly kind and helpful, and she had one of the most welcoming faces. She really made the visit feel warm and enjoyable. She made it worth 5 stars“

“Made a last minute decision stop at this tiny place (after an appointment at Kaiser down the street) and was VERY pleasantly surprised! It was DELICIOUS! The air-fried falafel was UNIQUE and perfectly crunchy on the outside! It's a MUST try and I'll definitely be back.“

“Absolutely fantastic food!“

“Great food, decent portions and pricing is very fair for the quality of food. They are a must try if you enjoy fresh prepared, and BBQ style plates you can share from. You'll know once you get there and the aromas from the kitchen hit your nose. The creamy hummus was delicious.“

“My family and I were looking for a restaurant that serves halal food on our way home. We found this on google maps and had minimal expectations.
Honestly, we were glad we stopped here, We loved it! The gentleman who worked their was super kind and friendly and went above and beyond to make sure we felt comfortable and pleased. So i would give the service 20 out of 10 !
We had kebbeh, lamb chops, and chicken tawook. Kebbeh was served super hot and crispy. Yum.
The other plates were delicious but there is a room for improvement. I would have prefered my tawook to be a little more juicier. But the flavor was their and I would order that again, no doubt.
They also provided us with lentil soup as an extra (probably coz it's ramadan?) And it was a super nice touch. Loved it.
I would come to this place again inshaAllah!
Thank you!“

“Great ambiance and amazing food. I had a lot of food… falafel, spicy hummus, kafta kabob, tzatziki loaded with veggies, cheese balls, and baklava. All so delicious and fresh. I even loved the fresh pita and dipping sauce that was complimentary. From the manager and many servers, everyone was pleasant and friendly throughout my time there. I went during happy hour so the specials were great during that time. I’m definitely returning to this Mediterranean restaurant for sure. I loved it.“

“They have very friendly staff and the food is fantastic.“

“We ordered this takeout. I must say, even with a 15 minute drive home, the food was delicious. The food was very, very tasty and cooked to perfection. It was a little pricey but worth it.“

“Delicious and amazing service!“

“Such a cute coffee spot with great attention to detail! One of my favorite things is that they can customize the cold foam with any logo or design you want, which makes the drinks feel extra special and perfect for photos. The coffee itself was smooth and delicious, and the presentation was amazing.
Their pastry selection is just as impressive. We tried a few desserts and they were fresh, beautifully made, and tasted as good as they looked. The food menu is also worth mentioning—everything was flavorful and well-prepared.
The atmosphere is cozy, stylish, and perfect for catching up with friends, working, or treating yourself to a coffee date. If you're looking for a café that combines creativity, great drinks, and amazing pastries, this place is definitely worth a visit!
☕🍓🥭🥐 Highly recommend the custom cold foam drinks and pastries—you won't be disappointed.

Loved!!!“

“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.“

“We ordered this takeout. I must say, even with a 15 minute drive home, the food was delicious. The food was very, very tasty and cooked to perfection. It was a little pricey but worth it.“

“Delicious meal. I ORDERED the kafta kabob to go and was amazing....it totally met my expectations. Generous portion, the garlic sauce was so fresh, salad, hummus everything on the dish was so tasty.... great value for your buck. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone searching to eat authentic meditation food. Can't wait to visit their meat market next door.

Thank you so much A+“

“The BEST pita chips and hummus!“

“The food is quality service is great. I will come back for sure.“

“good and healthy food and very delicious too.“

“Tried out your Cerritos location, I lived in LA almost 3years and food especially the kebab wrap was the best by far and I have tried different kebab place’s before in LA. One of the best Kebab place in America, the lamb was moist and very tasty with great flavors, the combination of the hummus, salad, fries combined with the lamb was delicious, the fresh flat bread was soft and crispy on the outside. Add the garlic yogurt sauce wow your tastebuds explodes in your mouth, the food was very lite and not heavy like most kebab place so they got the right balance by using the flat bread and not pita bread that most place use on the wrap Well done this place remind me of a place back home in New Zealand. I give The Kebab shop in Cerritos 10/10 Highly Recommend this place to my friends and family and different locations in America. Will go again and try something different on the menu.“

“Su comida deliciosa, la atención al público excelente. me encanta visitarlo.“

“Absolutely loved the food at Kababji Grill — the Beef Kafta, Kibbe Nayye, and Beef Shawarma were all bursting with flavor. The service was top-notch, and the atmosphere made the experience even better. Truly one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a long time!“

“Walked by and walked in for the first but definitely not the last time. Great food that is filling and reasonably priced. The line to order started growing and an employee who was on her break ran over to open another register. That kind of service is seldom seen and is appreciated. In fact I went to a chain restaurant a couple days ago and I was told I would have to you their kiosk to order so I walked out. Touché to Zankou! Mmm chicken!“

“The best food in Santa Clarita“

“My tummy is so full and happy. The staff was so very friendly (cashier). Definitely coming back!“

“my favorite marinade and cucumber salad. like Pico de galli but with cucumber🤌“

“Good food. Good portion. Highly recommended!“

“Nancy at the counter is always fast and efficient. She really knows her menu! They have a variety of plates, salads, wraps, and sides. A few of my fan favorites include the works, which comes with a little bit of everything, kafta, beef, chicken, two falafel balls and two step grape leaves. Chicken wrap is made with pita bread, garlic paste, lettuce, tomatoes, and homemade salad dressing. The sides forBesides for your wraps are pickled turnips and your choice of spicy potatoes or salad. My favorite salad would be the grilled veggie salad with protein optional it has onions, bell peppers, zucchinis, yellow squash, and corn, all grilled and topped with their homemade balsamic dressing and feta cheese. Their stuffed grape leaves and falafel are always a hit as well. I have yet to try their baklava, but that is next on my list they’re located in a food plaza, so there are a bunch of other eating establishments as well and their dining areas and restrooms are always spotless. Most of the establishments have the restroom code and Wi-Fi password posted or if they don’t, you can always ask! The TVs mainly play the news and they have connections if you need to charge your phone or laptop overall, this is one of my favorite places to eat. If you decide to go check this place out at the counter know Roxy sent you!

Vegetarian options: Falafel balls, hummus, grapes leaves, eggplant wrap, fattouche, tabouli, baba ghanoush, grilled vegetable salad, house salad, Cesar salad, Greek salad.“

“My wife and I realized that we had not thought to stop here in quite a while and so we stopped for lunch today and we were immediately reminded why we like the food here so much. I like the chicken kabob wrap and my wife typically gets the chicken bowl. The staff is friendly and helpful and the food is consistently good. We will definitely have to keep the Hummus Factory on our regular list of places to visit for lunch and dinner. A photo of the chicken bowl shows just how appetizing it looks.“

“This is by far the freshest food I’ve had in a while. I ordered the gyro bowl, one pork and the other beef lamb with rice and fries. I’m not even kidding this taste so fresh and clean and you can taste the love in the food. I need to go back and try everything!“

“Great environment, classy entertainment and the food is very delicious with reasonable prices. And, when it comes to their service it’s outstanding“

“Great Lebanese taco joint. Vegetarian options. Generous portions. Very satisfying.“

“The best food, people and everything is amazing 🤩“

“Love this place, we try to go and have breakfast every Sunday.“

“We arrived earlier than the food truck and almost missed them, but luckily right as we were looking for dinner alternatives they pulled in! Absolutely delicious, we ordered the 24" chicken shawarma meal with extra pickles. The chicken was super delicious, and the fries really hit the spot. Highly recommend!“

“Great experience eating here chicken is delicious“

“I recently tried Kimo’s Shawarma and it was honestly one of the best shawarma spots I’ve been to. The meat was incredibly flavorful, juicy, and perfectly seasoned, and you can tell everything is made fresh. The garlic sauce was rich and creamy without being overpowering, and it paired perfectly with the warm, soft pita.

The portions were generous, especially for the price, and the staff were friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. The place itself was clean and had a relaxed, casual vibe.

If you’re craving authentic, delicious shawarma with great service and value, this place is definitely worth checking out. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Wife got the Falafel plate, I got the 3 Skewer Kabab combination plate“

“I know a lot of are going to say no way! So on the 2025 Super Bowl a specific taco vendor was highlighted I’ll say. Without name dropping we all know who I’m talking about, if not look it up.
I e definitely had both… But I guarantee!! Tirzaha is 100% better!!
Try them both as I did I’m stuck on Tirzahs Mex-Terranean!!“

“Omg the food was so good I loved everything. It was seriously delicious I will definitely be coming back. The hummus was amazing, the salad was not only fresh but a type I’ve never had before. The flavors and ingredients had me like what is this I was honestly blown away at how tasty a salad can be. The fish was cooked perfectly and the rice was on point. All the sides were so good too I honestly can’t find anything wrong. You can really tell the cook puts love into the food. The staff was also very kind and welcoming. I really hope it’s just as good next time I come. Their jamaica tasted super fresh and natural. My kid loved it too!“

“I luv this place! I usually order for pick up. I recommend the Chicken Kabob plate with Basmati rice and a Ceasar salad. Don't forget the pita bread! 😋👍“

“This place may fool you by it’s size but the quality of the meat is amazing, perfectly cooked and so flavorful, crisp salad and the whole plate put together fresh and tasty ✨ definitely my new go to!!! Customer service is friendly and fast 💨“

“Dined here this evening. We enjoyed some Cocktails to start then ordered Beef Tartare, Shrimp with Veg and Roasted Carrots. Entrees varied from Pasta to Ribeye steak and Burger. All delicious. The Carbonara needed more bacon but that was the only issue. Desserts were great. The Espresso wasn’t hot enough for my guest but overall we enjoyed the evening celebrating a birthday. Will recommend to my friends for sure. Would recommend a reservation as it was very busy by the time we left at 6.30 pm“

“Good service, good food friendly staff“

“I just got a bowl at the new spot by USC. Juicy chicken, nice fluffy rice, The chipotle sauces are tasty and service was fast. I'll get another bowl for sure.“

“I'm so used to getting rice that is room temperature at best. So I ordered the chicken shawarma rice bowl, and the first thing I notice is the rice is warm . . . like really warm. I also have a fear of really hot spicy food because it makes me sick. No problem here - the chicken was so delicious, and not "hot" spicy at all. Just a really great flavor. My friend ordered the same, and her reaction was the same. Great flavor, so tasty! The service was great too! But the very best part was the size of the serving - it was such a generous serving, I had to ask for a to-go container, and enjoyed it again later that day. The restaurant was light, bright and clean. I totally recommend this restaurant.“
