“One of the best 100 meals we've had. If you are traveling between Ventura and Pasadena, a great place to stop. Located in a strip mall, just off the freeway. We shared an Armenian salad and a lamb shawarma. Perfect amount of food for two people. Don't miss this place!“

“Such a great kebab and in convient place to“

“The kebab here are delicious. I was finally able to try this place for lunch and it did not disappoint. The staff were very friendly and polite with us. My wife and I came here after her doctor appointment because it's in the same plaza.

My wife got the chicken kebab plate with hummus and macaroni. I got the beef lule kebab plate with Shirazi and French fries. They make it fresh right when you order so it can take a couple of minutes. We are our food inside of the place so they brought our dish out to us. They also give complimentary lentil soup for my wife. We both really like how seasoned the chicken and beef lule kebab were. We'll be sure to come back again to try another dish.“

“Lemon Zest consistently delivers delicious food with the convenience of easy app ordering. Their new location on Reseda is beautifully designed, creating a great dining experience. The portions are generous, offering excellent value for the price. My two kids love the beef lule kebab plate—it’s big enough for them to share, with leftovers to spare. As someone who eats mostly vegan, I really appreciate the variety of plant-based options. I’ve tried the falafel plate, falafel wrap, veggie wrap, and several appetizers—all have been flavorful and satisfying. Highly recommend!“

“This is not just a kabob house, it’s also a specialty butcher with good quality meat. Their kabobs though, are very tasty, one of the best in SoCal. I always order luleh kabobs to go whenever I’m around and for family gatherings. I’d definitely recommend everyone to try it.“

“this place by far has one of the best Kebab plates ever growing up eating kabobs it was very hard to find original here in the states very few places can make it as good as this place does the chef here is as original as it gets juicy and tender and full of flavor I love this spot it is gem in the neighborhood great place in San Fernando Valley I've had the lamb shank also and they're filet mignon skewers are delicious in the portions if you're not super hungry you're going to have some food for later on humongous“

“This sharwama restaurant is a must-visit for anyone craving authentic Middle Eastern flavors. The shawarma is perfectly seasoned and juicy, wrapped in fresh bread with crisp veggies and a tangy sauce. The falafel is also fantastic—crispy outside, tender inside, and packed with flavor. Portions are generous, and the hummus is smooth and balanced. With a cozy atmosphere and friendly staff, and also offers a delightful experience at a great value. Highly recommend!“

“Very impressed with Javan! Service was so helpful and friendly, especially our server Victor. The food was outstanding and so fresh. The combination of flavors in the Alex salad was absolutely outstanding. Our vegetarian Koobideh was delicious. The hummus and babaganoush were perfect. Thank you - we will be back!“

“I recently visited Vanak restaurant, and it was a pleasant experience. The place is cozy, with a relaxed atmosphere perfect for a casual meal. The staff was very friendly and quick to take our orders.

My son ordered Joojeh Kabsb, which was juicy and flavorful, served with a side of rice. I ordered Abgoosht, and I loved how fresh and well-seasoned it was. It reminded me my childhood traditional abgoosht places in Tehran.

The prices were reasonable, and the portions were just right. Overall, Vanak is a great spot for a quick and tasty meal. I’ll definitely be back.“

“Tried a sample of "Breathe" from the Crooked Path and it was lovely! I was kind of mad I didn't have more of it.“

“The food and service was excellent and it also has good hookah!“

“Got there right at closing time with our online order mistakenly scheduled for the next day, and manager Juan and server Vanessa could not have been more gracious and professional in how they handled the situation. They rallied to make sure I got the wrap I ordered for my son, and I am extremely grateful for the team taking the time to make him a delicious meal even after all the food was put away for the night. Kudos and thank you!“

“The hummus tree was incredible. Some of the best how much I’ve ever had and that says a lot congratulations.“

“This is amazing place - VERY FRIENDLY SERVICE AND SUPER TENDER FIRE GRILL BBQ MUST TRY !!!! BEST BBQ IN D VALLEY ❤️I'm sure they changed the people since I'm shocked with previous reviews 5 months ago! KEEP DOING THE GREAT WORK ?“

“This is a hidden gem. These guys are super friendly, accommodating, and provide amazing service. The food is superb and it reminds me of some of the famous food trucks in the plethora of other countries that I've visited. The prices are fair and the amount of food you get for that price is astounding. Great work guys.“

“I love coming to this place for the Lamb Gyro! It is so delicious and savory with veggies and sauce. The owner is very kind and always treats me and my friends like kings. He is always busy making delicious bread but finishes the gyros so fast! MUST TRY“

“1st time eating here , I came with one of my coworkers and all I can say the guy who helped us is very nice, prepared our dishes very fast, I had the lula kabob wrap, huge wrap btw and very delicious I couldn't finish all, just half, my coworker got the combination kabob, I'm looking forward to go again , I highly recommend this place

Parking: Is a small parking lot , plus is not parking only for magma, there are other shops“

“Food is really good, good prices, lot of food“

“This place is really REALLY good. To give you folks context, it’s a small restaurant off the food court in a Mall. So, you kind of go in thinking you’re going to get “mall food”.

But, no. Not at Kabab Lab (silly name, AMAZING food). Their combo plates come with a lot of rice, salad (with a great dressing), pita, humas, and excellent chicken and beef. Well cooked, juicy, well seasoned… it’s one of those places that “you have a taste for…” once you’ve tried it.

I cannot recommend it highly enough, but i can tell you that I keep coming back. I’d rather endure The Mall and have an excellent, delicious, well prepared meal instead of hitting some of my local places that aren’t nearly as good.

The restaurant is always very clean and well lit. It can get crowded but it’s the Mall so there is a lot of fast turn over. Plus there are another 100 tables in the common area if you aren’t in the restaurant itself.

The staff is always friendly and the cooks clearly know what they are doing.

Do yourself a favor and give it a try.“

“I only recently went into Cicek's Chicken and couldn't believe how delicious it was. The quality is consistent every time. The moutabal is to die for, and the garlic sauce hits so good with the chicken. Speaking of which, the chicken is juicy and perfect. The filet mignon is so delicious too. Just tried the baklava and WOW, didn't expect it to be as delicious as it was. I was genuinely surprised. So happy to be a semi-regular now, this place rules. Give it a shot.“

“Incredible food with Incredible prices. We had the chicken wrap with fries and fountain drinks. Total bill under $15 each. Seats are hard, unpacked for your discomfort but hey... who cares! A bit noisy too with piped in music. Also took longer than I expected to receive our food but it's scratch made. Some of the moistest flavorful chicken I have ever had. I'll be back!“

“I love this place! I have been coming here for over 5 years now, and the food never disappoints! Their kabobs are so delicious with their buttery rice very delicious! They recently added manaeish to their menu which is a Lebanese flatbread and they are all amazing especially the cheese boreg!“

“love the food. Had the chicken plate, meat was moist, the rice delicious and the salad fresh. My friend had the salmon and loved every bite. The service is great very polite, the waiter came by to check on us a couple of times.“

“Service was friendly !! Food was so amazing“

“Always love the food. You have perfect chefs. I've noticed that when I ask to toast the bread, the sandwich is way more fun. Thank you thank you. It's not surprising how busy your restaurant is. Makes sense to me.“
