Came all the way here from Long Beach because we heard the food was excellent. It did not disappoint! We eat Turkish food everywhere we go as we are Turkish Americans. This is some of the best Turkish food I've ever had and I've eaten in kebabs in Istanbul. We got the family plate, which included döner, Adana, chicken şiş and rib eye şiş. So good. The pride was fluffy and tasty. The baba ghanoush was so incredibly creamy. The Turkish salad went above and beyond. Highly recommend. Afiyet olsun. read more

Service was great here. I got the Turkish kebab plate. 4/5 stars. The meat was very tender and sour flavorful. The spices were perfect. Price was a bit high but because of the meat quality and portions of the plate, I will give that a pass. Bonus - they have coffee shop inside that make Turkish coffee the right way. I haven't tried it yet but I will soon. The inside is spacious and clean. They have the coolest oven for pizza and naan. It super legit. read more

Almanjal Restaurant - Middle Eastern Near Me - Anaheim, California

Delicious food and warm hospitality! I came for the manti because it's the only Turkish manti place in our area. The manti was comforting, savory, and perfectly cooked. We also ordered the Turkish Kebab grill plate. The kebabs is a MUST! I have been to many Kebab restaurants in this area and theirs has to be the best in my opinion. It wasn't dry at all and the meat was so tender with a smokey aroma from the grill. You can smell the grill going from the parking lot before you even come in. The cheese rolls were flaky and crispy. I like how the cheese filling wasn't heavy or too greasy. It was paired with a light and refreshing tzatziki. If you have kids who love french fries.. order it! The serving is large and it comes out hot and fresh. I'm so glad I found this place! Will be back for sure. read more

Man, you must try the Iskender plate. It is FIRE in taste. Some of the best Middle Eastern Turkish food I have had in a long time. It has lots of the Middle Eastern flavors with almost a rich taste to it. Nice looking restaurant inside and out. Servers are nice as well. I will be back for more. read more

Almanjal Restaurant - Iskender plate - Middle Eastern Near Me - Anaheim, California

The service was lacking at this spot. Maybe the server was new? But we were the only table sitting for a late lunch. It's a huge restaurant. Great for larger groups and plenty of parking. On to the food. We had the fatoush salad which was quite good. The hummus was creamy and smooth. You can tell they shelled the chickpeas. I prefer this version so much more than the chunky kind. The falafel was also delish. They weren't dry at all, which doesn't seem hard to do but it was so much better here. The zaatar with cheese manakeesh was delicious. And we got the family size grill. I don't usually like chicken kabab but these cubes were so good and you can taste the grill flavor. The ground beef kabob was also equally good. But they burned my favorite, the lamb cubes. Very sad. All in all I'd say pretty good food. Can they add kibbeh to the menu? That would be fab. read more

Since my last review, the restaurant has changed chefs and menus. This review was right before Ramadan, and was the standard menu. For anyone who was familiar with Castle, this is the same chef and menus. To keep the review simple, most the food was tasty. My particular highlight had to have been the muhammara and tawook. The prices are a bit steep, which is where I personally lose a point. read more

Where do I start? I discovered this hidden gem when I went to Essential Nails for my mani/pedi. While sitting in the chair, the heavenly aroma of spices and charred meat convinced me to place a to-go order. It quickly became the norm when getting my nails done. Tonight, we decided to eat inside the restaurant. The staff was warm and friendly. We saw these beautiful dishes on other diners' tables and wanted to try them. They did not disappoint! We ended up going with a family style dinner that came with three appetizers, kabobs, rice, grilled vegetables and the fresh baked Turkish pita. They brought us some perfectly brewed Turkish tea, the best pistachio baklava and Turkish ice cream. We will definitely come back! Please support local restaurants read more

I had an excellent experience at Al Manjal Restaurant! I ordered a pizza and it honestly surprised me in the best way. The crust was perfectly baked -- crispy on the outside but still soft inside -- and the toppings were fresh and full of flavor. You can tell they use quality ingredients, and everything tasted homemade, not rushed or frozen. The restaurant itself is very clean, welcoming, and comfortable, with friendly staff who make you feel appreciated as a customer. Service was quick, and my food came out hot and fresh. If you're looking for great pizza, delicious food, and a local restaurant with good service, Al Manjal is definitely worth visiting. I'll be coming back to try more items on the menu. Highly recommend! read more

The atmosphere is wonderful, cleanliness is excellent, service is amazing, and the food is incredibly delicious; the meat is tender, the Turkish kebab is appetizing, and the taste of the *lahmacun* and baklava rivals exactly what you would find in Antalya, Turkey. You feel as though you are in Turkey--in fact, the flavors even surpass what you find there--not to mention the coffee and the warm, generous hospitality. I highly recommend visiting this place and trying their food. read more

In our family, the birthday person gets to choose the restaurant, so this year I dragged my wife and kids to Little Arabia for Palestinian food. Why??? Because recently I have been diving deeper and deeper into Palestinian history (1890's to Present). Long story short, with all my heart I stand on the side of Palestine, and I stand for the just struggle of the entire people against this horrible genocide that Israel has been executing upon the land/people since the Naqba (1948).... And I say this sincerely, as an American Christian who sees the true evil in Zionism. I'm sorry I got carried away. Back to my birthday experience at Al Manjal. It was amazing! The restaurant is very bright, clean, and welcoming. The staff was even more amazing. We got to meet our waitress, who was from Egypt and I believe her name was Salma. She was so wonderful and friendly. Then we met our chef for the night who manned the stone oven. He was from Palestine(Nablus). I'm sorry but I forgot to get his name. Finally, we had a chance to meet the kind owner named Hani, who is also from Palestine (Jerusalem). He brought out a special Manakeesh, on the house, that he said my kids would love. We all gobbled it up! The owner and staff made my birthday really special. The food was amazing. We ordered hummus, Chicken Tawook, the Al Manjal salad, french fries (for my 10-year old daughter who is a fry addict), beef Kufta, and two kinds of Manakeesh. The hummus was the best I've ever had and the Chicken Tawook was some of the juiciest and most savory chicken too. Can you believe I was so excited to eat the food that I forgot to take pictures of the dishes that came out???? I still think about how creamy and delicious the hummus was.... I will definitely be returning to this place to try the other delicious items I saw on the menu! شكرًا لك "Thank you!" May God continue to bless this restaurant and the staff, and may God bring justice and liberation to the beautiful land and people of Palestine! read more
