“All……. Everything!!!!!!!!“

“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!“

“Luna Grill was looking real clean when I walked in, so off to a good start. Ordered the chicken and beef kabob plate...solid portion for the price. Flavors were nice, but the beef leaned a little salty. Now, about those metal chairs… rock hard. Felt like I was sitting on a slab of concrete. A little padding wouldn’t hurt. Food was good, though, so I’d come back...just maybe seat on the booth next time.“

“Incredible Mediterranean flavors! ?
The hummus was creamy, the falafel crispy, and the kebabs juicy. The service was impeccable, and the atmosphere was cozy. I highly recommend it! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Shout out to Jasmine.

“A wonderful place! We ordered takeout for dinner, and everything was top-notch. The portions were generous, the food was delicious, and the service was great. The menu variety was impressive, with something for everyone. The prices are justified by the quality, and we were very satisfied. It’s a great spot to enjoy a good meal. We’ll definitely be back!“

“My first visit to Caffe Noor didn’t disappoint. The service was excellent and the food was so fresh and delicious. I recommend the falafel pita with roasted eggplant.“

“The Lule kabob is very juicy and tender! Full of flavor! Very friendly staff, ready to take your order. Catering services are excellent too. They are closed Sundays, but they may cater food for special events on Sundays is you ask!“

“This is the first time I have ever been to one of the Bacari locations. This one, in Sherman Oaks, is excellent. My daughter, Lauren, picked this restaurant. I was surprised, because Lauren usually picks out more expensive restaurants.

Bacari is a tapas type restaurant. The prices are reasonable because the portions, and the plates, are small. They recommended ordering three plates per person.

We ordered one plate for each of us and a Margarita pizza to share. The pizza was excellent. I had the Bacari burger. It was amazing. My wife had sea bass, and our daughter had a filet. We all enjoyed our meals.

Service was prompt, friendly, and efficient. In this restaurant, they bring out each plate as it's ready. That encourages people to share and socialize.

The restaurant was quite noisy inside. They have a nice little courtyard with outdoor seating. It was slightly less noisy in the outdoor courtyard.

For people who want to lose weight and still have delicious meals, I recommend Bacari Sherman Oaks.“

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

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

“Most delicious food you can ask for“

“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!“

“Delicious love coming here“

“Such a wonderful vegan oasis in the San Fernando Valley! As locals know vegan offerings in the valley are limited compared with the rest of the city. I am so happy that I found this place I will be coming here often! Great food and atmosphere all around!“

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

“Absolutely amazing! Went here for Mother’s Day and had the lamb combo. I love lamb and this was delicious with a great portion. Had it a couple weeks later with some beef and also amazing. I’ve been eating Mediterranean food since a kid and this is definitely my go to spot now. The price and portions and quality are the absolute best! Highly recommend :)“

“Great food and friendly staff. Owners greet you and serve!“

“The food is amazing! I will definitely be going back. If you go for lunch order ahead, they make everything fresh.“

“The food was very tasty and fresh. The drinks buffet was very generous.
We found it problematic that the food was also served in plastic bowls in the restaurant.
It would have been nice if the owner had prepared tables for us outside - there were only tables for two. So we had to start moving tables ourselves.“

“Great food, visiting from Chicago and we have an amazing Persian restaurant at home (top rated in Chicago) and this place tastes just as good.Very happy we found this place, meat was on point, my son had a cheeseburger and that was amazing. Definitely recommend.“

“Wooooowwww such a gem of a find! I was hungry looking for a kebab and came across A&V. The warmth and hospitality I encountered were when walking in from A&V was amazing! They explained everything patiently when I asked what to order.

I ended up selecting a chicken shawarma plate and soup and wooooow it was the best chicken shawarma I’ve had in SoCal and I’ve tried a loooot of shwarma places. The chicken was cooked fresh over a charcoal grill infusing it with so much smoke and flavor only a charbroiled cooker can have.

The combination of everything in the soft lavash was sooooo delicious and super generous in terms of portions! I could only eat half of it. Another main highlight are the potatoes! While most kebab places just give fries, A&V hand cut their fires and infused them with garlic oil and cilantro which paired super well with the shwarma.

I would whole heartedly again here again for a shwarma fix.

Even paired it with an Armenian tarragon soda to wash down the deliciousness, amazing!“

“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!!!“

“Lemón Zëst is an absolute gem! It's the perfect spot for a satisfying meal that leaves you feeling energized. The menu offers a wonderful variety of light yet flavorful dishes that are ideal for any time of day. What truly sets this place apart is the delicious food that tastes so fresh and authentic. The interior is bright and inviting, with cute lemon-themed decor that gives it a cheerful and refreshing vibe, making it a great place to relax and enjoy your meal. Parking is super convenient, with a lot just around the corner, making it easy to access. If you prefer, there’s also metered parking available right out front, which is great for a quick visit. Whether you’re stopping by for a casual bite or a more leisurely dining experience, Lemón Zëst provides a nice and enjoyable atmosphere. I highly recommend giving it a try!“

“Ok place .. food is not so great.. the hummus is fine .. except of that the rest is really so so .. I’ve eaten in a better places ..but again it a matter of taste .. they still got for me 5 starts as they are a local business and I support their efforts to hire local people.. but they need to improve the service and the quality of the food..“

“Susan is delightful, and the food is FRESH & DELICIOUS....oh, that laffa bread!!!!!!!“

“Omg the most delicious breakfast I have ever had , mr jamshid is the kindest person, thank you always and appreciate your neatness for this wonderful restaurant“

“I have been coming to Plateia for almost 3 years now, I love their food. The ambience is great so is the service, Celestino and Dalia have been my/our server for a number of times - great shout out to him!

For the longest time my favorite has been the Harissa Lamb Pita with Reggiano fries - 5 star each time. But today I tried the local fish sandwich with rockfish, mind blown!

Fyi, thats how our plates look after we're done ... EVERYTIME

We walk across campus once every few weeks to grab a quick lunch here, the staff are super accommodating and nice.“

“Nice food, cooperative staff“

“The food is absolutely delicious, whether you’re enjoying an appetizer or a main course—everything is packed with flavor. The hookah is top-notch, smooth, and enjoyable. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure you have a great time. And the weekend live music adds such a fun and lively atmosphere! Highly recommend this place for a fantastic night out.“

“This is one of my go-to lunch spots. Everything I've tried is absolutely delicious, and the service is amazing, they are truly kind people. Prices are very reasonable, especially for the portion size. I can't recommend Lusy's enough.“

“Great food great experience loved it would come agin.“

“The Shawarmins are awesome! Very friendly and cool owners. HEY Guys! It's ME!“

“Amazing food! We tried everything from their beef, fish, chicken kabobs to the variety of rice! Our favorite the lentil with raisens, super delicious! Highly recommend🔥“

“Great service, lovely restaurant. We ate outdoors and loved it. Really good food!!! Went there for lunch and we will go back again!!!!“

“Dietary restrictions: This place follows the Kosher laws, and cooks accordingly, no mix of meat items with dairy items, no cheese burger here! And the meat is slotted according to the Kosher rules, which means that it’s more expensive, and it reflects on the price of the products.

Parking: It’s a busy shopping center with many business, they all need the parking throughout the day, must be lucky!“

“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.“

“The place was described as a vegetable based, salad, fresh ingredients version of Chipotle's. I was taken by the acidity of the food, along with its sweetness, which made it particularly enjoyable. There was a very short line, and the menu took some time to comprehend. In terms of decor, and feel, it did have the same feel as a Chipotle's, although I think the focus on greens and salads helps differentiate its line-up of dishes. Otherwise, it was not a particularly remarkable experience but rather enjoyable to spend time with friends in the patio space outside.“

“Tried to order on line and couldn’t. Usually order online from stores. Heard good things about this cava location. There’s a black girl who works there who could get it but she’s afraid of the…. She could get this 5 star any day if you know what I mean.always get the Harisa chicken. I like the spice“

“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“

“Where to begin? The food is outstanding, and the service gives it a familial touch, making me feel more like a cherished guest than just another customer. The ambiance is vibrant, with a steady stream of high profile celebrities frequenting the place. I tried the lemon chicken, and it was fantastic! The owners are incredibly down to earth and wonderful people. It truly feels like a home away from home or should I say in this case home close to home!“
