I brought a friend for lunch today, to say the least, it was a very enjoyable experience, the food was excellent and very tasty, great atmosphere, the workers attentive and polite, as we were new they suggested what to eat, their choices were great. Welcome to Walnut Creek.“

“Great food!“

“Truth be told I would rate it 4.6 stars cause it’s pricey, but with anything you order they give you a very generous amount of food and a balanced healthy and good meal. I felt like I had to write a review because the customer service was fire. I ordered, they gave me complimentary pita bread for the Muhammara I ordered in addition to my kebab plate which came with a good portion of chicken, vegetables, rice, and hummus. Also gave me Turkish coffee and then extra sauce while I was waiting for no extra charge. Customer service was on top. Especially that dude Shaheen who took my order he did all that stuff I’m talking abt and was so nice the whole way through and answered every question no problem they gotta give that man a raise he doing a great job he bringing in business. They had some jazz playing in the background so the atmosphere was vibey. Overall great experience despite the price.“

“The chicken gyro bowl here was super good. The food came out really fast and the fries were super fresh. Everything in the bowl was really good, fresh ingredients, and hot. It was the perfect amount of food and the packaging was so cute. We had a miscommunication about the student discount, but the owner reached out to me and was super kind about it. This place is owned by good people and has amazing food! I highly recommend :)“

“My first time here. Got a bowl with lamb and beef shwarma and added some veggies. Wow. I thought it might be small portions, too much greens or rice. Nope. It was really nicely balanced with plenty of meat. I really enjoyed this and it was VERY filling. My wife could only est half of hers. Delicious and reasonably priced too! We'll be back!!!!!!“

“Savoring Lebanese cuisine; like never before . una reunión de amigos ... y una comida excelente ... de falafel boy quede impresionado. más que recomendado.“

“YUM!!! That’s all I have to say! I LOVE the food here! Healthy, tasty, and pricing is decent for the amount you receive (bowls).“

“For years now, Sam's has been my family's go-to for celebrations if we don't want to make food ourselves. The food is great and our guests look forward to it!

At this point the owners remember me and treat me with a warm greeting every time. Very much family feel.

My family's favorites are the rice, beef gyro, and chicken gyro. And I often get a portion of their homemade yogurt just for myself 😋“

“I'm not from around here. Finished a work meeting and someone recommended a nearby kebab shop for Shawarma, but I prefer to support local over a chain--I'm sure both would've been good. Food was prepared fresh (didn't seem to be frozen falafel, for example). I ordered the combo (chicken + lamb) shawarma (wrap) with a side of falafel. Was fantastic, hot, prepared quickly, and service was ON POINT. Super friendly. Very pleased with my decision. The dining room isn't anything too special, but the food is what mattered. Highly recommended!“

“We had dinner here last night and truly enjoyed the whole experience. The food was fresh, delicious, and full of flavor. What made our visit even better was the excellent service — everyone was so kind, welcoming, and attentive. The staff made us feel comfortable from the moment we walked in. It is not easy to find a place with both great food and such warm hospitality. We will definitely come back again. Highly recommended

The atmosphere is soft and sumptuous, layered with rugs and sheepskin. The staff invited us to kick back and get cozy, and you can hardly help but relax and enjoy. Can't wait to come back!“
