Middle Eastern Restaurants near Sun Valley, CA

“My husband and I were looking for a spot to eat after running some errands in the Sun Valley area and my goodness Paros food was amazing. We had the chicken breast kebob, seasoned feta cheese, hummus and a side salad. Without exaggerating, their seasoned chicken was the best from any Mediterranean place I've had, and my husband and I are foodies. We enjoyed it so much we HIGHLY recommend Paros. Christina was a sweetheart. She asked for our opinion on their food to make sure we were enjoying their food, and YES, we absolutely did. This family restaurant is super clean and very welcoming. Please try it, you'll love it!!“

“Don't let the name fool you, they're more than just a bakery. They also serve absolutely killer kebab plates. Portions are great, they're my go to when I'm craving a kebab. The employees are nice and it's a great experience overall. I highly recommend this place!“

“Great food and cocktails!! 🍸“

“Very good food Fresh and healthy Owner is always there With a nice smile !“

“my boyfriend and I came here for the first time and LOVED IT! I’m middle eastern and was drooooooling over the wagyu shawarma. I was on the fence about getting the hummus side and ultimately decided against it bc I wasn’t sure how much food I wanted - but then 5 minutes later the lovely man working ( I didn’t get his name but he had tunnels ) very very kindly brought out a small side of hummus for us to try and it was bomb! the fries also fantastic and only $5! i’m pretty sure they make the ketchup because it was delicious. next time i’ll be getting the full side of hummus and adding a side of hot sauce. one of my new favorite spots“

“Reasonably priced and delicious food!“

“Really awesome place to get a shawarma. Big portion, quality ingredients, just very tasty overall. Highly recommend it!!!“

“Thank you to the Raffis staff for their professional work, friendly approach, and delicious food. A funny story happened today. My friend and I had lunch, had a good time, and forgot the envelope with money on the table. A few hours later, we remembered that we had forgotten the money on the table. We went back and they returned our money to us.Thank you very much:Rafuel,Martin,Luis❤️you are professional👍“

“Amazing and well seasoned food. Comes out piping hot. It’s a small-to-medium sized restaurant with fast turnover. We had the luleh kobab and lamb kobab, which were both delicious. The bread is fresh and homemade.

The servers work extremely hard, but because of volume are not extremely attentive to any one table. They will take your order fast, but you have to have patience to get the bill.“

“This is the best Mediterranean/Lebanese food in LA. I have not tried a better falafel anywhere in the world yet... Definitely 10 stars!!“

“I went there yesterday for the first time. I got the lamb shawarma plate, and it was wonderful. I will be returning. It may seem a little pricey, but the quality of the food and the generous portions is well worth it.“

“Great Chicken 🐔 Kabob plate.“

“Came to Carousel with a party of 9. Our table was waiting on arrival and the staff was fantastic especially given our time constraints. We let them know we had to be out the door in 90 minutes for a show and they ensured we were fed a feast with time to spare. We did the family style - Hollywood Feast which was a lot of fun. The Hollywood Feast will leave you with days of leftovers which we are now enjoying. Would recommend family style for large groups. All the food was great, everyone agreed the chicken stood out as superb, very juicy and tender. Definitely coming back.“

“Amazing food. Great family run business. It’s just like eating a home cooked meal every time. The family is one of the nicest you will meet. Been coming here for a lot of years and the food is consistently great. Also, they do catering for any sized parties.“

“I’ve gone to Rafo’s so many times and haven’t left a review. The chicken thigh sandwich is always so fresh, easy, and juicy. The chicken?! I’ve gotten it at least 5 times now. I had the chicken and beef lule plate once as well and the lule was also super tasty.“

“Overall I will give this place a 4 starts. The concept is great and I’m sure it was initially running super great. Right now it feels like is missing more attention, service was ok, not rude just ok, food was good, not necessarily the greatest but I think a 4 starts is well deserved.“

“Was craving some Armenian barbecue and happened to be in Sylmar thought I’d try this local spot out for the first time. Glad I stopped by Hovo recommended me the Lule kabob plate and it was truly delicious, very fresh. I highly recommend this spot if you want some Good barbecue.“

“Have gotten takeout from here a number of times. Never disappointed. Flavorful chicken that's nice and tender, ingredients always seem fresh.
All of the sauces are very tasty and they are very generous with them. The chicken plate and The Get Greeky bowl are, so far, my favorites. Pricing is fair compared to some other places.
Staff is friendly and attentive.“

“We just had dinner here for the first time, and the food was absolutely amazing! We were warmly greeted by Vanessa, who was incredibly kind and welcoming.

We ordered the Branzino and the Chicken Combo Plate, and everything was delicious. We also tried the hummus, strawberry mojito, and baklava—each dish was full of fresh, vibrant flavors.

Thank you for the excellent food and outstanding service. Our entire experience was wonderful from start to finish.

May God shower this restaurant with blessings, prosperity, and continued success. We will definitely be back!“

“After waiting a long time while they did renovations they are open again and the food and service are excellent! I love what they did to the place.

The filet mignon was grilled perfectly and was so tender I was able to do cuts using a butter knife. The beet hummus was unique and flavorful. The eggplant was not overpowering and was also a nice dip for the filet. The complimentary bread is handmade and I could eat 10 of them. Highly recommended restaurant. I'm gonna come back lots. :)“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Cafe Elegante in Burbank is truly a hidden gem and one of the most enjoyable dining experiences I’ve had in a long time. From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed with warm hospitality and outstanding customer service that made me feel right at home.

The food was absolutely incredible. The chicken dishes were perfectly seasoned, tender, juicy, and packed with flavor in every bite. The beef was equally impressive—cooked to perfection, rich, flavorful, and incredibly satisfying. You can genuinely tell that great care and attention go into every dish that comes out of the kitchen.

What really stood out were the mouthwatering appetizers. Every appetizer we ordered was fresh, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor. They were the perfect way to start the meal and left us excited for the main courses. Each bite showcased the quality ingredients and passion that Cafe Elegante puts into its menu.

The atmosphere was welcoming, clean, and comfortable, making it a wonderful place to enjoy a meal with family and friends. Between the exceptional food, generous portions, and attentive service, Cafe Elegante exceeded all expectations.

If you're looking for delicious chicken, flavorful beef dishes, unforgettable appetizers, and a dining experience that leaves you smiling, Cafe Elegante in Burbank is a must-visit. I cannot wait to return and try more of their amazing menu!“

“Delicious , authentic Israeli food just like I’ve had during my visits to Israel. Great staff and welcoming to all!“

“Seems like a training day. When you are a new customer and you order a plate, you have no idea what comes with it and no explanation. I ordered a two meat chicken beef combo and was asked if I wanted meat. It was off but the food was delicious...“

“review_stars 01/04/2025 - Ray Beker The Best Lahmajune in All of Southern California. They have Zahtar Maneishe. Cheese Beorek. Spinach Beorek. Spicy Cheese Beorek. Meat Beorek. Potato Beorek. Special order Mini Party Sizes . The Best prices. No order is too big or small.“

“Extensive menu with lots of options for sides, toppings and sauces. But the meat itself isn't that great. Both the chicken and lamb/beef were dry and not flavorful on their own. That's too bad because otherwise it's a pleasant venue with fast service. I won't be going back“

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

“The best of the best Israeli/Mediterranean kosher food home made and you can taste the diffrence! I cant praise them enough. Try and you won't be disappointed! Amazing!!!“

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

“Food is great and service was fine. Unfortunately, the location lacks any charm. It's dark, cavernous and lacking in any charm or warmth. I love the location on West Adams, but will not return to the Sherman Oaks location unless it's for takeout. They really need to find a new space“
