    Chicken shawarma wrap
    Steve S.

    I'm so happy I found this spot on Yelp! I am constantly in search of new shawarma places and this one truly blew me away! You order at the counter with a nice gentleman and then you grab your table. I went with the chicken shawarma wrap. When it was brought to my table, it was of a massive size and was served with very yummy golden, crispy garlic potatoes on the side. The wrap itself tasted incredible -- the shawarma was very juicy and nicely marinated. No better feeling, when a marinated chicken kabob skewer is getting fire grilled right in front of you, then gets cut up into small pieces and gets placed on your flat bread. In addition to the protein, the inside of the wrap contained some greens, a bit of cucumbers, tomatoes and onions. Some of their yummy house sauce was added into the wrap as well. All of these ingredients were nicely wrapped into their tasty, fresh thin bread. With each bite, you could taste this freshness of the ingredients and the plethora of flavors, were all beautifully working together to create this masterpiece of a shawarma. I was truly impressed and this spot, although small and super casual, belongs in its own league as far as quality of the food. Can't wait to come back again and try something else from their menu!

    wrap size is huge
    Tim H.

    Online experience only, the process was smooth Why A&V Grill Kitchen? - VERY generous portions FOOD 4/5 Chicken Shawarma Wrap - PROS: moist chicken, wasn't dry - CONS: WAY WAY too much sauce which made the wrap soggy + additional sauce when I was eating it. For my personal taste it was overall too salty - see pictures Chicken Lula Kebab Plate - Much better than the wrap with a generous amount of chicken kebab. Would opt for the plate over wrap SERVICE 4/5 Friendly service, no bad vibes PARKING 4/5 Depending on the time, ample parking in their small shopping plaza AMBIENCE 4/5 Small amount of seating inside, though it seems most ppl get it to go

    Beef and chicken combo plates.
    Alaina S.

    We walked in tonight for the first time (Saturday 6pm) and the owner greeted us with a huge smile. Hubby ordered the chicken combo plate and I got the beef combo plate. It took a little while to get the food, as they cooked it all fresh. And it was SO WORTH THE WAIT!! Every. Single. Thing. Was. Delicious. The meat was all so juicy and well seasoned. The salad is good enough to order alone. The hummus is perfection. The rice fluffy. The pickled vegetables refreshing. There was so much food we brought a bunch home. OMG! Please go to A&V, keep this nice business owner with his incredible food in business and thriving. I'll wait longer because they are busy.

    Combination chicken and beef
    Lonnie M.

    The food is excellent. Great value. I ordered the chicken and beef kabobs combination. One of the best I have had. Service was fast and very friendly. Definitely worth eating at.

    The front end

    Valleys hidden gem, food is outstanding. Always fresh, prepared to perfection. Honestly these guys are 2nd to none. True and tried they are consistent, otherwise I don't leave reviews to mediocre experiences. I will only rave about an establishment or express my disappointment. I'm fair but I expect a level of experience and this place is super. Guys speak Armenian English and Russian

    How are the grilled vegetables?

    Our grilled vegetables are fresh, flavorful, and cooked over an open flame for a smoky taste. We use high-quality seasonal veggies, lightly seasoned so the natural flavors shine. Perfect as a side or a healthy main option!

    I've been coming here for years, and while there are plenty of great options on the menu, I always…read morecome back for two things: the tabbouleh and the chicken shawarma plate with homemade fries. The shawarma plate also comes with a delicious lentil soup that perfectly starts the meal. Everything tastes fresh, flavorful, and consistently delicious. The service has always been friendly, and one of my favorite things about this restaurant is the people it brings together. During a weekday lunch, you'll hear English, Arabic, Armenian, and Hebrew all being spoken in the same dining room. It's a reminder that good food has a way of bringing people from all walks of life together. I wish the world mirrored this environment. The only thing I miss is the original décor. Before the remodel, the walls were decorated with beautiful photographs of Lebanon that gave the restaurant so much character. The updated space is clean, but it feels a little plain in comparison. If you're visiting on a weekend, expect a wait because this place is popular. Be sure to save room for the homemade baklava. I also appreciate that they're one of the few restaurants in Los Angeles that serves Coke Zero. This is one of those places I keep coming back to, and for good reason.

    Just had a very disappointing experience with Carnival…read more I ordered a combination plate through Uber Eats, which includes two sides. I selected rice as one side, then paid an additional $4.50 to upgrade my second side to grilled vegetables. When my order arrived, there was no rice--only the vegetables. I called the restaurant, assuming it was a simple mistake. Instead, I was told that ordering grilled vegetables automatically replaces the rice because it's considered a "double side." That makes absolutely no sense. I paid extra for the vegetables, yet somehow ended up with less food, not more. The worst part is that this policy is nowhere on the menu or website. If ordering grilled vegetables means you forfeit your rice, that should be clearly disclosed before customers pay extra--not explained only after the food arrives. So here I am, standing in my kitchen making my own rice because something needs to accompany these dry ass kababs. There are far too many honest, customer-friendly Middle Eastern restaurants in the area to waste your money on a place that charges you more while giving you less. I don't care how long they've managed to survive on these sneaky ways- I'll be taking my business elsewhere.

I contacted corporate to let them know what happened, but their response was essentially a brush-off--basically saying it could have happened anywhere. That was quite surprising and very disappointing. Based on this experience, it's not worth the risk of trying again.

His greeting and every interaction with us felt monotone, rushed, and completely lacking any warmth. There wasn't a single smile or welcoming gesture throughout the meal. At one point, I walked to the restroom and, on my way back, saw the same waiter enthusiastically speaking Farsi and providing attentive, friendly service to several other tables. The contrast between how those tables were treated and how we were treated was impossible to ignore. Based on my experiences here, it certainly felt like customers who are Persian or speak Farsi receive a much warmer level of service than those who don't. The food is still good, but service is a big part of the dining experience. I left disappointed, especially after recommending this place to others. Unless you speak Farsi or are Persian expect mediocre to poor service. This shoutout is for you Amir! Hopefully management reads this review.
