Middle Eastern Restaurants near Sunland Tujunga, CA

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

“I order from here almost every week. Favorite pita and hummus in town. Adding the wagyu to the hummus is great, but honestly love just getting the hummus straight up. The chicken and wagyu shawarma sandwiches are good, though a bit greasier than the average shawarma spot. Overall one of my favorite spots!“

“Excellent food and service. I tried the regular as well as a few breakfast lahmajos. Special kudos for the dough - freshly baked, well cooked, crispy and chewy. No yeast, of course! The toppings were even better. The meat, cheese, seasonings. Yum!

Don't skip the dessert. I tried Baklava. So soft and balanced. No overwhelming honey or sugar taste.

I'll be back for a bigger meal !“

“Great food! Excellent service! 😍“

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

“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.“

“My aunt, daughter, and I popped into this place for lunch on our way home. The food was delicious with a good portion size. My daughter and I shared the chicken and beef combo plate and still had quite a bit to take home with us. Food has really good flavor and the owner was so nice. I’m definitely saving this place for the next time I’m driving through the area.“

“What a wonderful experience! I brought my family to enjoy a meal here, and it was pure joy from start to finish. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully served, every bite felt like comfort. My kids were happy, my wife couldn’t stop complimenting the hummus, and I was just grateful to see everyone smiling around the table. The staff treated us with kindness and made us feel right at home. It turned an ordinary evening into a special memory. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Came on a Saturday to enjoy Mediterranean BBQ. Staff was amicable, a little slow in serving and taking orders and came to our table with someone else's order. I would highly recommend they do a number system (assign table number to customers for staff to reduce confusion). It was decent food, spices and grilled veggies were good. Chicken was a little thick and hard to cook all the way through those meats. Steak was a bit dry. Seasoned fries and hummus, Pita bread was good. Ambiance was settle, no music or noises. A little pricy but portions are good. Clean establishment. Parking can be a little tight in the parking lot.“

“Great food fast and great service“

“What a Great Find! First time there and Junior took time to explain the whole menu to us. He also prepared the Delicious meal! We tried the chicken kabob, Shawarama, rice, Mediterranean salad, and hummus with pita bread. Fantastic meal!!! We also watched him prepare a Wrap which was Huge. We definitely be back!!! This great little place is located in the CVS shopping center on Hollywood Way and Verdugo.“

“I absolutely Love Love Love this place! If you haven’t tried it yet you are missing out big time. The pastry can’t be beat. Delicious, scrumptious, lick your fingers good, you will want one of every thing. Don’t take my word for it. Don’t wait! Run now. Go. What are you waiting for….“

“Excellent food here. Plate of raw onion and basil set out first. Our Soltani Kabob and Luleh Kabob plates were enormous. We probably should've just split one. They were both delicious. Meats were tender and flavorful. Rice was awesome. The fresh bread was warm, and great. Service was good. The restaurant is in a 3 store corner mall, so the parking is really tight (lot is shared by a liquor store, a pizza place, a bar, and the restaurant). The inside is fairly basic but nice old photographs on the wall. Highly recommend.“

“Today, for the first time, I had the pleasure of tasting borsh (soup) and I have to say was the best soup I have ever tasted. It had enough spicy-tart ratio. I appreciate good food and this was absolutely perfect. Thank you!“

“Loved this place AMAZING service with the friendliest staff and the food was delicious reminded me of real home cooking I also had the vegan options Delicious delicious and delicious“

“Reasonably priced and delicious food!“

“Asteria Restaurant in Glendale is a true hidden gem that delivers an unforgettable dining experience from the moment you walk in. The ambiance immediately sets the tone—warm, cozy, and authentically nostalgic. You're greeted by the sight of an old-school piano, vintage black-and-white photos lining the walls, and charming little chandeliers hanging from the ceiling. It feels like stepping into a timeless Mediterranean home.

But the real star is the food. I ordered the **Chicken and Filet Mignon Beef Kabob Plate**, and it was nothing short of extraordinary. The filet mignon was melt-in-your-mouth tender, perfectly seasoned, and grilled to perfection. The chicken kabob was juicy, flavorful, and had that irresistible charred edge that makes every bite better than the last. Served with fluffy basmati rice, roasted vegetables, and warm pita, the plate was a masterclass in flavor and presentation.

Asteria’s menu is packed with mouthwatering options—from classic Mediterranean appetizers to hearty wraps and kabob combos. Each dish feels thoughtfully prepared and full of bold, satisfying flavors. Whether you're dining in for a special night or grabbing takeout, Asteria delivers on every level. This spot is the real deal—authentic, flavorful, and absolutely worth the visit.“

“They have great quality products and they are very friendly“

“Have you ever entered a business and immediately feel like you just walked into your home where family is waiting to greet you? That was the very feeling I had when I stopped by the NoHo Cafe today. I knew the food was good as I used the delivery service before. Today I decided to visit the Cafe and I promise I’ll continue going frequently. The food is delicious but what won me over was the welcome and love you experience when you walk in the door. The staff is amazing... the Cafe has a very “welcome home” atmosphere. The complimentary cup of soup is AWESOME. I sat at a corner table allowing me to do what I love...watch people. As I enjoyed my delicious first meal of 2020 I watched as every person who entered was treated with care and joy. Just like being home the staff will keep checking to see if the food is ok and if you need anything. The NoHo Cafe is a place I recommend to anyone wishing to enjoy a good meal and to experience a “welcome home” feeling. Thank you NoHo Cafe for starting my 2020 with a reminder of the importance of kindness.“

“ABSOLUTE GEM. We were lucky enough to find Cafe Elegante after a long travel day. Was just dumb luck that we found it but BOY did they delivery.

The staff were unimaginably kind to our weary travelers and provided a truly memorable dinner experience. The soltani and everything else) was AMAZING.

We'll be back many many times...“

“This bakery is ok. Read the reviews and they were all falling over how greta the place is. While the food I ordered was very good I would not say it was amazing. The tahini bread, however, was very good. It is very cheap so I can see why the quality compared to the price gives this place high ratings.“

“The cashier was rude , I asked her if they sold carne asada fries. She pointed to the menu. I said it only says nachos. She replied " no" our Antonio's nachos are fries. How would I know that! I'm not a regular customer. And with that type of customer service surely I will not be a regular customer.“

Their food is authentic and amazingly delicious.
Their shish kabob, chicken, and lule is the best from the many we have tried over the last five years.
The owner, Harry, is such a nice person and it shows in the food he makes.“

“First time coming here and the food was fantastic. I honestly can’t wait to try their other offerings. Located on the east side of Glendale Ave, just north of the freeway. Small parking lot, but street parking is also available. Outdoor seating is also available. The lamb shank was calling to me and I absolutely enjoyed every bite. Substituted for a different rice as well.“

“I always love coming in here. The vibes and the staff are really nice. The food is delicious. The pricing can get a little high but they compensate for the excellent portion sizes! Hummus is literally solid ??

Parking: It’s in the center“

“great food, We ask for napkins she forgot, we never got refills they never ask“

“This place is amazing! The gyro beef and lamb with hand cut french fries is phenomenal. The Boreg crispy cheese is very tasty! The Tabbuleh, hummus, eggplant Babaganoush, Muhammara, and Labni (Armenian yogurt cheese topped with dried mint, crushed aleppo peppers, and diced tomatoes) from the “sampler for two” is absolutely brilliant. The beef Lula kebab and the chicken shish kebab are excellent as well. Noah was our server and did a great job as well. The picture is of the sampler for two. We will be back!“

“Delicious dishes! Everything is recommended! But if you twist my arm, I'd say try the beef or chicken shawarma sandwich.“
