Middle Eastern Restaurants near Tujunga, CA

“Excellent veggie and cheese pizzas and spinach/ chicken with crumbled blue cheese!!“

“This place deserves 10 stars I could not take pictures of the food because I inhaled the food. I got 3 shawarma and finished in less than 5 minutes and almost ate my finger with it it was so good. You guys have to go heavy on that yellow sauce have no clue what it is but woowwwww that’s crazy. Also they are very generous on the meat, on top all that firework tasty food. The service is even better, the guys name is Avi and his such a welcoming and genuine. I literally felt like home honestly would have got a 4th shawarma if I had space in the stomach. Overall stop reading this and get over here try it yourself“

“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! 😍“

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

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

“This place shares the parking lot with a gas station has a pretty sufficient of parking (by the alley, the far corner of the gas station or directly in front of the restaurant). It’s very clean inside, well-designed, and they always play pretty good music. The girl who works at the front is very friendly (and also good looking) and the food itself is fantastic. Ever since Zest restaurant closed down, I tried to find something good and, after having tried 6 different locations around the area, finally settled with this one as it seems to be the best one out of all of them!“

“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.“

“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“

“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.“

“Dear Nerses vanak, I don't want to give a bad rating. Maybe it was a one-time fluke. So let me explain, I have been ordering the koodideh for two years, It was great, especially the taftan bread. The last time I ordered it, the kebab had shrunk, and the meat wasn't the same quality. The taftan was smaller and doughy around the corner, and the middle was paper thin. I know the cost of doing business has gone up last few years, but to compensate for it by sending out a meal like that will only cost lost business.“

“Reasonably priced and delicious food!“

“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“

“It’s the most place to hangout and enjoy caravans meal. Great food and excellent service Caravan restaurant is the best and awesome place“

“This is a grown-up restaurant where you sit down and a waiter comes and takes your order. They have the best hummus in town. The portions are good, the food well prepared and presented and the staff professional and friendly. We've only been during the day but they have a keyboardist who plays often enough to keep a piano set up and ready to play. I give the highest recommendation for food, service and atmosphere!“

“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….“

“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.“

“DELICIOUS 😋HEALTHY FOOD AND VERY NICE AND FRIENDLYCUSTOMER SERVICE .“

“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.“

“I liked it! I usually stick to the better known restaurants. Had a lunch meeting and my guest suggested this restaurant. I was pleasantly surprised! Food was great, didn't have to wait to be seated and good price too! Highly recommend and will repeat.“

“Yes I haven't been here since the pandemic but I recommend it with all of my friends and family“

“One of my favorite place. I love the food and especially the kobedeh. :)“

“Most delicious food you can ask for“

“I love it here, and just doing a review as I was about to go a 2nd time this week (I usually only get to go once a week due to my schedule, but I’m on vacation this week) and was checking the menu online and noticed a ridiculous review from someone scared of the dark and unable to digest iceberg lettuce (seriously, buddy learn to cook and stay away from restaurants ) . So this place is a hidden GEM! The food is fresh and amazing, the staff is sweet, caring and highly efficient, the prices are fair and reasonable, and the hummus is literally my favorite hummus and I’ve had many. I normally go once a week and get 2 of the chicken bowls, one with lettuce (because I’m normal) and shrazi and hummus and cucumber yogurt, and a 2nd bowl for my wife that is exactly the same except every item is separated (she is a Virgo). After only the first few weeks they remembered my order including my wife’s packaging modifications. Some months back I came in after a bad hand injury, and to this day they always check how it’s healing.
I could go on but getting hungry and have to get my bowl (or might try a wrap for fun)

“Their gormeh sabzi is so delicious… I can’t even say enough about it.Very authentic, delicious Mediterranean food made with love. I’ve only gotten food to go from here (never eaten in the restaurant—but I will—so can’t speak to atmosphere yet) but I loved how they so carefully packaged the order. It was a dinner celebration for my son’s birthday, with my husband’s middle eastern relatives (who have high expectations for food) and Olive Branch nailed it. The yogurt dip also is thick and creamy and amazing. Their dolma are so delicious, chubby and full of yumminess with very tender grape leaves wrapping the contents.I literally couldn’t wait for my lunch today and it Olive Branch leftovers. I mean who can say that about leftovers?! You can’t go wrong with this place. Their food is craveable.“

“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.“

“Byblos Mediterranean bakery has the good food , amazing and excellent service, and all the staff at Byblos are very nice, helpful and friendly too. Wishing them all the best And the prefect place to sit and enjoy the meals I rate Byblos Mediterranean baker 5“

“Nice place to enjoy well made food. The owner was super friendly and let us try a number of different appetizers on the house. We tried the beef and chicken lulah platters and they were nice. Would return again to try more of the menu. The plaza had plenty of parking. Prices are reasonable.“

“Beautiful place“

“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.“

“Excellent Lebanese restaurant! The food was authentic, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The service was attentive, and the ambiance was warm and inviting. Highly recommend for anyone craving genuine Lebanese cuisine!“

“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!!!“

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

“The chicken kabob plate was excellent. Perfectly marinated and flavorful chicken served a delicious Greek salad and perfect rice. The server was very knowledgeable and helped us choose our courses wisely according to our rates. They have a beautiful bar area and we will definitely go back later one evening for cocktails“

The ladies came out and asked how my meal was and if I needed anything more..The location was very very very clean with good seating and a clear menu... Parking was also ideal and easy to get in and out..This place has potential to grow and I would love to see more locations with the same quality..“

“Been going here since I was in middle school

They have the friendliest staff. It's run by a lovely Armenian family

They always have great hospitality service and a smile. I also love seeing Salvadoran soda available as a fellow Salvi ??

They used to do onion rings back in the day but they're not on the menu. I wonder what happened because I used to love them

But the food here is straight up. Amazing! You can't go wrong with anything on the menu, but what introduced me to this place was their burgers which are just incredible. I just got one after so long and I just couldn't help but notice that it looks like the Real life version of the Krabby Patty

Love to see this place is still going strong“
