“Could not believe how delicious and authentic is the food every body loved and had the best compliment for the food
Also love the amount of food for the price
Thank you so much for making a great dinner for all of us
Feraydoon and Farzaneh ??“

“Nice service but the food can be improved. Hummus was excellent as well as the salad. The Israeli salad wasn't chopped small enough and could have had additional lemon and spices. The megashnitzel was nicely breaded but the chicken was dry and tasteless.“

“Ohhhh my gawd! This is the best middle eastern/mediterranean place that I have tried. It is so delicious. I can't believe it is just such a small place inside a cute little middle eastern grocery store. I am so glad I stumbled upon it. I have now eaten there twice. The food was cooked perfectly both times and the presentation was bea-u-ti-ful. They give you so much food for your money. It is sooo worth it! It is scrum-dili-uptious ha! Highly recommend it-I will definitely be eating there again.“

“Great and Tasty Halal Food in town.“

“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!“

“The outside look of this restaurant does not represent the Inside. Very lovely décor inside. Lunch was pretty busy but service is great. Food does not take long.
I had Ghormeh Sabzi. The stew as its described, is different from my understanding. Basically had one type of herb and meat plus the sauce. The sauce taste very strong. I cannot describe the flavor.
The prices are not bad. Very reasonable.
Stick with the Kabobs.“

“Highly highly recommend. Awesome food. Great owner. Great servers. Best babaganoush ever!“

“Delicious!!!!! I want to try everything on the menu!!! Order the Adas rice, amazing!!“

“Grade A (96): Food was excellent, Had 4 different type Kebabs and they were all amazing. The Antakly Bread was the best I've had, (Awesome and rich with veggies and Pepper paste). Krdiyeh (Cheese, Tomato & Jalapeño inside a toasted bread. Tabbouleh was very good with the right amount of lemon juice. Hummus & Babaghannouj were very good, but we had to order another Hummus because the quantity is a bit thin. Price per person can be anywhere from $20 to $50 depending on how much you want to eat, but I think $25 is a port good standard portion.

Vegetarian options: Middle Eastern food has a lot of vegetarian options like Tabbouleh, Fattoush, Hummus, Mutabbal, Falafel, fries, Krdiyeh Cheese beureg etc.

Parking: There was parking when we went.“

“Orla did not disappoint! Based on my experience at Mother Tongue and … by Michael Mina restaurant has earned a I will 100% try it and trust it to be excellent. As I said Orla lives up, from the views to the impeccable service, this place could get a pass on a miss on a food item. We went for Thanksgiving so it was a different menu than usual, and honestly all the items were spectacular, except the Turkey that only one person got, so I’ll overlook that slightly dry Turkey and still go with a must visit on this one. Price points are high, but this is in a Regent and the atmosphere and service can warrant the price tag. Treat yourself!!! Michael Mina has delivered once again.
10/10 - GO

Parking: Valet, excellent service, restaurant validates to a reasonable discount“

“I’ve been coming to Safir for 10 years.
This is the best Mediterranean Restaurant in the valley.

Food is freshest and very delicious.
They use quality meat/ingredients. The owner never compromises anything even during the Covid pandemic. It is so wonderful to see the owner caring about quality these days when everyone is cutting corners.

Safir has live music on weekends and the place is very spacious (you can dance too) & also there is covered outdoor seating.

Everything is excellent when it comes to ambience, food, and services.
I highly recommend Safir!

Wishing you much success! I love Safir!

“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….“

“Edit: I love coming here and eating every chance I get. Too bad for inflation but I still get 2 meals out of the $15 meal. I came back and they have ice cream now!!! Of course I had to try.

The guy added a lot of Oreos and they’re nice and crispy. I should have gotten the Hersheys hard shell though.
—
Delicious food here! Fast service. The platter can last me a good 2-3 meals. The meal is so flavorful.

My bro likes the mixed platter, I like the chicken platter. The hot sauce is spicy, but so good. They give hot sauce and extra white sauce on the side. Pita costs extra, so I just used some I had at home.

The parking lot is small, so I park on the street when I can.“

“I love this spot the owner has great Persian food , the kinda flavor that is so different then the rest of the Persian res in the area, I swear the owner is this older nice men the place has home made food smells so good !He makes the best horash sabzi it’s the green herbs stow it comes with a side of rice and it’s really delicious!My friend loves kabobs so he orders that and says it’s very good !All the locals of the area eat here :)So in case you are in the Woodland Hills neighborhood I recommend grabbing lunch at this placeI enjoy every time I come here it reminds meof my moms food , so thank you for this“

“I stumbled upon this bakery while visiting a different shop in the plaza and was pleasantly surprised by the owners' hospitality. They kindly offered to prepare fresh lahmajun if I could wait a bit and even treated me to complimentary Armenian coffee during my wait. The highlight was that my family absolutely adored the lahmajun! It's definitely a place we'll keep coming back to.“

“Friendly staff, good menu options, I selected the Cornish Hen kabob with barley soup, both of which were tasty. I wish I had asked for some lemon to squeeze into the soup as I think it would have elevated it just a little more.
The baclava for desert met expectations.“

“Yes I highly recommend the food, the service, and atmosphere.“

“Wonderful place for kids to have fun and enjoy pizza and fries etc while the grownups can relax and have a gourmet meal The food is just delicious I love Big Z a treat for all ages“

“Most delicious food you can ask for“

“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.“

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