“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.“

“We had such a wonderful experience at this restaurant! Our group included seven adults and three children, and everyone truly enjoyed their meal. The food was absolutely delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. We ordered our meat well-done, and it was cooked perfectly—tender, flavorful, and surprisingly juicy, which can be hard to find with well-done meat.

The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and welcoming from the moment we arrived. Even though we were a large group, everything was handled smoothly, and the service was truly exceptional. This was our first time dining here, but it definitely won’t be our last. We were very impressed and will absolutely be returning as regular customers. Highly recommended!“

“Hands down the best middle Eastern restaurant in the Valley. The Adana kebab is to die for: they serve it with a pita bread that is full of the meat juices and spices. It pairs well with their babaghanoush and French fries. The Fattoush salad is also really good and fresh. Also, try their Ashta desert, so yummy!! The service can be a bit slow sometimes, but I think it is meant for you to feel like you are in the Middle East and not feel rushed. This place is a MUST try.“

“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.“

“delicious food in a beautiful setting.“

“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.“

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

“Everything is perfect , me and my family love the food it’s so yummy , Thank you.“

“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.“
