    Aria's marinated meats are excellent, particularly the spicy chicken and the bone-in pork. The service is friendly and the prices are reasonable. I visited the Burbank location, unaware that there is a Glendale one (closer to me).

    This place is so amazing! We were already buying our meat from their other locations but this one does the catering side of things. The rice is so soft and fluffy. The meats so yummy and tender! We've decided to order once a week, especially when we're busy during the work week. They even sell some yogurt and sides as well. Very clean location. Very friendly staff. We recommend to our family and friends all the time! The one I'm referring to is 321 E Alameda #P cross street Glenoaks. (818) 859-7388 Patrick is always super helpful!

    Best premarinated chicken! Good, quick service. You won't be disappointed. I like the no spicy chicken breast but my family loves the spicy! Definitely recommend both!

    Amazing costumer service and good quality . Their koobide is the best.Their hot wings and hot chicken is really good too.Our favorite place for bbq. Highly recommend. I wish they had a location in Granada hills as well.

    Excellent quality for a quality price. Most definitely recommend! I am confident enough to say how much I love to grill. Like I LOVE it. I have grilled quite a bit in my day, and I can confidently say that Aria does it quite nicely. Their spicy chicken breast is where its at. Not only is the marinade unique and oh so delicious, but the quality of the chicken itself is outstanding. It just melts in your mouth. Their beef filet is also very good. Without any doubt, this will be my go-to meat market around the area. None can compare!

    Love their spicy chicken. They also do a good job with their cooked items. There is much competition in the area but this guys are always busy. Keep up the good work!

First, it's not in the menu yet, but the A5 CHEESESTEAK is FIRE... go now and get it! You'll see in the picture, it's the real deal.

The draw back is this place is very crowed during peak times and it a little too small considering the amount of customers that come. I've driven past Papa's Meat and Seafood on Glenoaks Blvd a dozen times, on our many trips to the area. We alway promising that we would stop in, and I'd finally stop in. Honestly, my only regret is waiting this long. I ordered the Luka Sandwich, which is loaded with their 14-hour smoked pastrami brisket, cheddar, pickled cherry peppers, iceberg, and Papa's aioli on toasted sourdough. The pastrami itself is a work of art--smoky, melt-in-your-mouth tender, and seasoned perfectly without being a total salt bomb. The pickled cherry peppers give it this incredible, bright pop of heat that cuts right through the richness of the beef. It's a messy, beautiful monster of a sandwich.  My wife went with the Surf 'n' Turf Bowl, which comes with their marinated "Crack Shrimp" and grilled angus beef over rice with a fresh shirazi salad. The beef was incredibly tender, but those crack shrimp stole the show--snappy, heavily seasoned, and completely addictive. You can clearly taste the quality of a high-end butcher shop in a casual, quick-service lunch.  The only reason I'm knocking off one star is the wait time and the seating is also pretty limited, so it's much better suited for a grab-and-go situation than a sit-down date night. That being said, the quality of the meat here blows standard sandwich joints completely out of the water. If you're in Burbank and want a lunch that actually feels high-quality and satisfying, do yourself a favor and drop in. I'm already eyeing the A5 Wagyu Cheesesteak for my next visit!

While waiting, I could see through the transparent glass window as generous portions of high quality meat were being grilled over Royal Oak charcoal. The aroma alone was irresistible and I ended up ordering beef lule and marinated ribeye as well. My family and I were blown away by the flavor and quality of both. The portions are generous, and the flavors from the marinades and spices are rich and completely satisfying. The kabobs are juicy and can be served on rice or in wraps. Personally, I appreciated the option to purchase just the skewers to take home, since we prefer enjoying them hot over fresh rice with melted butter. The menu offers a wide variety of kabobs, including chicken, beef, pork, quail, and cornish hen. The market and restaurant are exceptionally clean; very impressive!! That said, I would recommend ordring to go, as seating is limited and the atmosphere is minimal. While waiting, I noticed many customers doing the same and also purchasing meats to take home and grill on their own. Theres also a small market section offering drinks, breads, homemade Armenian specialties, and condiments. Parking is convenent, and the location is on the corner of Western and Glenoaks (easy to access from both streets). Bravo to the owners for creating such a high quality restaurant and market. I hope it continues to maintain this standard! We are a fan and I can't imagine getting my kabobs anywhere else in LA.

They changed the way they charge, and now it makes no sense for them to be charging $14.55 for a "skewer" of beef lule for it to not even be a full skewer. The total charge was $155 for bbq that is less than 6Lb. Absolute disappointment, sad to see businesses start off so well, but ruin their service and product so quickly once they establish their customers.

However, I am compelled to rate this establishment one star due to a particularly unpleasant experience with a female deli employee whose first name begins with the letter "J." Despite my frequent visits, the overall customer service in the deli and meats department has declined. The season butchers have been replaced with individuals lacking the necessary experience and customer courtesy that were previously present. Over the past three months, I have encountered the same issues with this particular employee. It is important to note that the fee charged for slicing a Tri Tip into a carton container is not the primary concern. The issue lies in the employee's behavior and attitude, specifically their unwillingness to properly wrap the sliced meat. This has occurred on multiple occasions, most recently at the checkout counter when the cashier pull the foil-wrapped package from the plastic bag causing the juices of the meat to spill all over the counter. This has happened to me every time this employee has served me. The Tri Tip sliced meat is dry and devoid of juices due to this careless employee's failure to wrap the meat carefully. It is imperative that this situation be addressed. Management should provide this employee, "J," with proper training on how to wrap sliced food correctly. Additionally, it is crucial the ambiance that all employees, including the deli and butcher employees, maintain a pleasant and friendly demeanor. A salutation is always appreciated. Despite these concerns, the BBQ remains outstanding as always.
