It's a warm chicken sandwich with pickles, bacon, lettuce and a rich & creamy sauce. I got the combo with a fountain drink and a bag of chips. They surprised us with the chocolate chip cookie! After a 10% tip, it set me back about $22 bucks for everything. The sandwich was rather large and heavy so you can technically split it with someone. Lots of free parking and the restaurant has ample seating to accommodate a lunch rush.

My family and I had been looking for a good BBQ restaurant in the Valley and came across Bludso's…read morein Van Nuys -Take out only. We were genuinely excited to find a BBQ spot we enjoyed, and for a while, we were happy customers. Unfortunately, over time, our experience became increasingly disappointing, particularly when it came to the size and consistency of the ribs. The first couple of times we ordered, the ribs looked like a standard, reasonable portion. But on our later visits, we noticed that the ribs appeared noticeably smaller. It wasn't just a one-time observation; after seeing the difference several times, we decided to call and ask about it. We weren't looking for anything unreasonable, we simply wanted an explanation and some consistency in what we were paying for. We were told, "Sorry, we'll have our manager get back to you." We appreciated that someone would supposedly follow up, so we gave them the benefit of the doubt. It has now been a couple of months, and we have never received a call, email, or any kind of follow-up. That part is honestly just as disappointing as the portion issue. Bludso's prices are high, and when you're paying premium prices for BBQ, you expect the quality and portions to be consistent. We understand that food costs, labor, and operating a restaurant are expensive, we're not expecting bargain prices. But when a restaurant charges what Bludso's charges, customers have every right to expect that the portions will be consistent and that legitimate concerns will be taken seriously. In a time when the cost of everything continues to rise and people have to think carefully about where they spend their money, spending more at a restaurant should come with the expectation of getting a quality experience. If we're willing to pay higher prices, we expect the food and customer service to reflect that. What really sealed the deal for us was that we actually tried to address the issue directly. We didn't immediately leave a negative review or complain online. We called the restaurant, explained our concern, and gave them an opportunity to respond. Unfortunately, the fact that nobody ever bothered to follow up after promising that a manager would contact us left us feeling like our business and feedback simply weren't important. We enjoyed Bludso's when we first discovered it, which makes this even more disappointing. But there are plenty of BBQ options out there, and at these prices, we don't feel there's a reason to continue spending our money somewhere that doesn't provide consistency or follow through with its customers. We tried. We gave them multiple chances. We reached out and gave them an opportunity to make it right. Unfortunately, we've moved on. No more Bludso's for us.

Both were good, but if I'm being honest, they just didn't live up to the expectations we had going in. The biggest disappointment was the fries... they arrived cold. Maybe we caught them on an off day because I know this place has a loyal following. Based on our visit, though, it just didn't quite live up to the hype. We'd definitely be open to giving them another shot... because every restaurant deserves a second chance. But next time, we're hoping the only thing that's cold is our drink.

If you happen to go during the weekday lunch rush make sure to order ahead. It gets pretty busy and everything is made to order. They take cash and credit cards. Definitely recommended if you're in the area and looking for some solid fast food.

I went with the bacon cheeseburger deal that they had that comes with fries and a drink. The inside of this place is very small like four booth and they also have outdoor seating. It took awhile for my food to get made. The burger was okay with nothing special to it, the fries were very plain so I think they forgot to add salt and the coke tasted more flat. If you never came here then I would say try it once at least but I wouldn't come back especially with my favorite burger place down the street.

So they rushed to make it and boy did it suck, got the chicken Caesar wrap and the majority of the wrap was croutons, in fact the croutons were larger than any single piece of chicken inside and outnumbered them 2:1, it seemed like a joke. Honestly I should have taken my tip right back out of their jar, don't know why they ask for a tip if they don't offer any additional service besides handing a bag over. I think worst of all, the young lady at the cash register offered NOTHING to make it right.

Souvlaki delivers on all cylinders with great customer service from Mr. Tony, who mentioned it was him and his mom working the kitchen that night (we came in around 9:10pm). Tony was very friendly and helpful to us in making a decision by describing the menu with detail which made it easy to decide what to order. Tony explained that they want to be a healthy late night option for patrons as they close at 11pm, also, the featured meats are halal. We ordered the lamb and beef shawarma wrap which come with fries. Canned and bottled drinks are availible to order as well. I really enjoyed the freshness of the Ingredients in the wrap, which was a pretty good size. Crunchy veggies, savory meat and sauce wrapped in what I believe is lavash thin flatbread. A classic wrap which did fill me up in a good way, it did feel like a healthy and nutritious type of full. It is complemented by salty fries which were cooked to perfection, we dipped our wraps and fries in some Tzatziki to top it off. The ambiance is chill, since it was late, we were able to get the bar style table availible at the window to dine in. Since it is located in the LA collection of chefs kitchens, they have a very small lobby/limited dining space so plan to enjoy 'to go', I'm not sure if the collection has a cafeteria style dining room somewhere. Parking is limited, sidewalk spaces. Give them a try if youre in the mood for some good late night Greek food!

While their lamb shawarma has been my go-to, I've tried a more affordable option that's new on the menu: beef lule shawarma. The lule is sized over average in comparison to other Mediterranean shops, I would say 1/3rd pound uncooked. Very juicy and savory. Pairs well with the sumac onion salad and the aforementioned condiments. No fries with this, but at less than $11 out the door, this high protein shawarma was a no brainer. Will make a lot of nearby burrito shops a run for their money. I will definitely come back for more! Thank you!

I was really happy when I went in than the restaurant because of the size didn't have a super over powering greasy food smell.

When I finally got to eat the sandwich was still hot which was great. However by the time I ate it. I'm T was a little soggy too. I ordered a chicken Philly sandwich. It was good with a lot of chicken and cheese. I got it with onions peppers no mushrooms. Cause that's how I like my cheesesteaks. You have two options for size. A six or nine inch. I went with the nine inch. I'm not sure if I was just done but 6" with all of the meat would have been plenty. It ended up being a little on the salty side. The chicken was in chunks which made it a little unpleasant versus having the chicken in thin strips. At the end I enjoyed it but definitely think I would do the traditional Philly if I make it back. I would give 3.5 stars if possible but giving this place the benefit of the doubt based on other reviews and my choice of sandwich.
