    Grape Leaves
    Erica V.

    Food here is fire!!! Definitely coming back as much as I can. The place is clean and casual. During lunch it wasn't too busy and had no trouble finding parking. Food came out fast and the staff were very helpful answering my questions. The chicken wrap is flavorful, not spicy and so addicting. The garlic sauce gives a welcomed creamy texture with a balanced garlic flavor. The grape leaves were so soft but not too soft and delicious.

    I had tried this place before long ago but I went back today and really enjoyed the food. I got loaded fries and I get them plain (cheese, beef, fries) so I really thought they would mess the order up, as most places tend to do, but they got it correct! My fries had a generous serving of beef and fries, I was so full I couldn't finish my plate. The prices were very reasonable for a halal spot. Will definitely be coming back.

    A great spot for a late night, middle eastern fast food option. The wraps are like long, skinny burritos--they are super convenient to eat and not messy at all! Both wraps have sauce, tomato, onion, and pickles packed inside the shawarma. The service is super friendly and they are very quick to finish your order. 5/5 - Chicken Shawarma, I was surprised that I preferred this protein to the beef. The spices were more pronounced in the chicken. The pickles are chef's kiss! 5/5 - Beef Shawarma, also a very delicious wrap! I just liked the chicken a little better. 3/5 - Vimto, an interesting mixed berry soda with British roots. I didn't love it, but it was fun to try!

    First time trying Abu Omar, and I was pretty satisfied with my overall experience. Their chicken shawarma was fresh, tender, and simple, just chicken, pickles, and garlic sauce. It's great for someone on the go or wanting a quick bite. My only gripe was the size was quite small compared to other shawarma restaurants in the area. Still worth a visit if you're in the area.

    Chicken shawarma wrap - 10000/10 Get a side of garlic sauce and hot sauce. EPIC. Could be a bit more crispy on the outside but not a deal breaker

    Nice spot located near Brookhurst St, AKA little Arabia. We tried the chicken shawarma wrap and family style plate. The chicken was juicy and flavorful. The garlic dip was a good consistency and added a great taste. The fries were just okay, plain. Quick service and nice seating inside with great Arabic music playing!

    The food is AMAZING! We had 2 meat shawerma sandwiches and 1 chicken shawarma combo for 2 people. The meat is tender, juicy and flavorful, it has pickles and tahini sauce inside the sandwiches. The chicken sandwich had toom sauce with pickles. Their fries was good. The place has tables outside and nice seating inside. They were busy but working fast.

    I really wanted to like Abu Omar Halal, but my experience was not good. I ordered the chicken shawarma, and it was very dry and tasted awful. It's just chicken, pickles, sauce, and bread. They are expensive, and you receive a small portion, which is not good for what you pay. They also charge 75 cents for additional sauce, which is unnecessary. We bought four shawarmas and received only three sauces. My brother asked for one more from the employee, and he refused, which was frustrating. It just doesn't make sense to serve three sauces with four shawarmas. My brother went so far as to offer payment for it, but by then it was a matter of principle. Arguing over a little sauce so we could fully enjoy our meal shouldn't be part of eating out. I am strongly opposed to any restaurant that is going to charge extra for sauces, particularly when the actual meal itself is mid at best. The shawarmas were a disappointment and literally a joke considering how much they cost. There are definitely better places around here like Shawarma Loca and Desert Moon Grill. Try those instead before visiting. The only good thing is that they stay open late, which is good for a late-night bite.

    The shawarma was incredibly delicious and flavorful. The owner, Sam, was incredibly hospitable and made me feel welcome. I would definitely visit again.

They also have sweet treats like mango lassi which is also good and cooling after the spicy food. Being 100% honest, the people make the place even better. Every time I've come in, the people working are so generous and hospitable- offering insight and even samples for their food. The inside is also super nicely decorated and the music is "vibey" too (my bf's exact words). They moving locations to Garden Grove, but I have no doubt that their new location will be just as amazing (and probably more amazing as well). Anaheim will miss you so much!!

Premium combo = entree + $10 Entree + premium drink + masala fries I tried the bowl with mild biryani, malai chicken, green (mild) sauce, and guava mango lassi. The bowl already comes with the raita sauce (a yogurt sauce), so I got the green sauce as my choice of sauce after asking the staff for recommendations. The protein portion was super generous and very well-seasoned with their spice. The green sauce was my favorite and everything in the bowl mixed well together. The whole bowl was delicious and it didn't feel heavy, wasn't greasy. The Kashmiri Chai and the guava mango lassi are the most popular drinks, so I decided to try the guava mango lassi. The flavors blended so well. One wasn't more overpowering than the other, and the sweetness level was perfect for me, also, not too much ice. Masala fries So crispy and well-seasoned!! Could be a little less salty. Gulab jamun cheesecake Also asked for recommendations for their cheesecakes and decided to go with this one. It has the fried donut ball in the middle with syrup. It didn't taste too sweet to me, but I also have higher tolerance for sweets. The center has so much of the cheesecake cheese and it was super soft and fluffy. So delicious! The samosas were also great! Crispy and not too oily. I also love that they use compostable takeout containers, including the lid! The interior looks nice and there are a few seats available. There's outdoor shaded tables and seats too. The only downside is that I wish the outdoor seats were a bit cleaner. There is a free parking garage, just make sure to park in the retail spaces. There was enough parking. The staff members are so helpful and very friendly. Can order with a staff member or using their kiosk. HIGHLY recommend!! Would definitely go back!

From the jump, my friends and I felt so welcome, all thanks to our man Jake, who so attentively took our order. This man was such a vibe and provided top-tier customer service in spite of being short staffed. He always had a smile on this face and handled everything so well, especially the 11pm rush that came shortly after we ordered. I can write so much more about him, but he honestly set the stage for what I think of the best dining establishments I've ever been to. Shoutout Jake! The food? No notes. It was tasty, scrumptious, divine, exquisite, all of the above. That food was made with love and care -- shoutout to the kitchen staff! I got the crispy chicken sandwich and woah, what a revelation! Eggplant on the sandwich? Such a game changer, like some next level stuff here honestly. My friend got a burger and oh my god, I only had one bite, but it was honest to god one of the best burgers I've ever had in my life. My other friends got chicken tenders. Tender doesn't just describe the chicken but also the souls who prepared and served this amazing platter. They honestly put every other chicken tender I've had to shame, I'm afraid I won't ever have another chicken tender without comparing it to YoYos. Sides were scrumptious and the sauces that came with them were so good too. I don't know how they did it, but the soft drinks had something special too. Nothing disappointed, I'm telling you! I wish I took more photos of the food but it was just so good that I didn't have time for that. I had such an emotional experience eating here, and I wasn't under the influence or anything -- it was just that good! I could preach to the choir and write a whole song (maybe album) about how amazing my experience was here. It was so magical, I nearly cried thinking about how lucky I was to eat here and break bread with friends. I live in west LA and I would honestly drive however long it takes, even in traffic, just to eat here again. It was simply that good. It's one of those places that you just can't gatekeep because I honestly think a visit here would heal so many traumas and bad days. This was the perfect end to a day with friends, and I will be coming back sometime soon. You will not regret coming here, I guarantee it! If you do, I just think you're lying for clout because I firmly believe this place could not disappoint anyone! P.S. just in case I didn't highlight Jake enough, I need everyone to know that he is the man! The experience would be nothing if it weren't for him. P.S. again: if I were on death row or another situation with a "last meal" type of arrangement, YoYos would need to be a part of that final meal so that I could die so happy and enlightened

Me and…read moremy friend are not lamb fans and was a bit hesitant on ordering the food so we did hold off on ordering for ourselves. And said we decided to share and eat off of my two brothers plate before we decided to consider coming back or eating more. There was only one worker that was working at the time, but she did a phenomenal job, considering she was holding down the fort for the restaurant by herself. She also mentioned she doesn't like lamb, but she would eat the one here herself so it gave me a pretty good first impression thus far. We ordered the lamb skewers, grilled rib, shank over rice, homemade yogurt, and Cole slaw. Lamb Skewers - 4.5/5 the portion was very generous! $15 for 3 large skewers that was about 1.25 ft length each. Was perfectly grilled and did not taste gamey at all. I believe it was Szechuan pepper that seasoned the skewers. I didn't eat enough to recognize if there was any numbing, but the bite that I took was amazing. Outside was crunchy inside was chewy enough to enjoy, but not tough. Grilled rib - 5/5 I was very pleasantly surprised at how although it was very charred and crunchy in the outside that the inside was very soft and fatty. The meat literally fell off the bone. Again, no gaminess and very pleasant to enjoy. Shank - 5/5 I would have to say that this was the hero of the evening from all the dishes we ordered. The meat was extremely soft, fatty, and literally fell off the bone as I was holding it up. It was very similar to pork flavor and extremely enjoyable for me. On a separate note, I enjoyed that so much but because I had already eaten before this dinner, I came back a separate day to have that dish for myself. The rice seems to be cooked in some type of protein broth and if I had to guess it's probably lamb broth along with carrot. It also came with size of pickled items to lighten the fatness from the meat as well as a small bowl of lamb based soup. Homemade yogurt - 4/5 had a slight tartness to it and light sweetness, but was more leaning towards the sweet side of things. I enjoyed it with the dried raisins and the granola for texture and it was a pretty good ending to the entire meal. Coleslaw - 3/5 it tasted average and didn't seem to be anything special. Though it was good to have it along with all the other protein items to lighten up each bite.

    Growing up in Hong Kong ,…read more lamb wasn't something I ate very often. It wasn't until I moved to SoCal that I discovered all-lamb restaurants like M Joy. It's basically a dream come true for lamb lovers -- almost every meat dish on the menu is lamb! This popular halal restaurant specializes in Xinjiang-style lamb dishes. The lamb rib with rice was incredibly tender and practically fell off the bone. The grilled lamb shank and grilled lamb ribs are also must-orders if you love bold, flavorful dishes. And don't miss the lamb skewers! They come in both spicy and non-spicy options. One thing that really surprised me was their classic sweet tea. They also have a salty version... but we definitely went with sweet. Oh, and you can request extra side dishes and soup too! Definitely come hungry. IG: socalhkfoodies

For two, we ordered the "individual portions" of Mandi Chicken (young chicken roasted with Yemeni spices) & Lalamb Haneeth (a roasted young lamb that falls off the bone). These were both served over a large platter of Mandi rice and came with Yemeni sauce and yogurt. It was expertly made, yet still gave us the warmth of a homestyle meal. The generous portions resulted in a second meal for me! On a Tuesday night, this place was quite packed with friends and families. It seems like wonderful place to host parties or business meetings. Someone nearby us had a birthday, and a group of staff came out with a dessert, blasting a traditional birthday song over the speakers and encouraged the whole restaurant to clap along! Despite the large gatherings, the restaurant is a no-reservation spot. They have a covered patio outside to seat an overflow of customers in case. Thankfully, my boyfriend and I were seated right away. They had a contactless menu, and we scanned a QR code to check our food options, but a server took our order and offered great recommendations once we waved him down. I would love to come back and try other dishes, like their grilled chicken or lamb--as well as the desserts and teas !!
