    Heard from a fellow yelper that Cicek's Chicken was just as good as Zankou, so I had to try this place out. I ordered a 1/2 chicken Lunch Special with green salad and hummus (you get to pick two sides) and with tip, comes out to around $20. Chicken was tender, juicy and had that crunchy flavorful skin (just like Zankou). The green salad was just chopped romaine lettuce with a choice of Italian or Ranch dressing (kinda disappointing-see my pic). My lunch special came with 2 pita breads. Very casual, simple and basic restaurant interior. Service from Vartan at the cashier was straightforward and direct. Lots of free parking.

    Parking can be a little challenge depending on the time. They have reserved spaces on the Mason side. Outdoor looks very unassuming. In fact you may never even know they're there. I dined in. Ample seating space accommodates small groups. Ordered the 1/2 Chicken with a side of fries and hummus. They don't sell fountain drinks which is a bummer but I got a tall Mexican Coke in a bottle. The chicken was perfectly seasoned and cooked to a golden brown crisp. Quite honestly ranks high on my list of favorite roasted chicken. The fries are large thick Cut. Do yourself a favor wrap some of the chicken into the pita bread they give you, dip it generously into the hummus. Absolutely incredible flavors. I'm so glad I gave them a try. I'll absolutely be back. Highly recommend if you're looking for that bomb ass roasted chicken fix! Just Phenomenal!

    Move aside Zankou! Cicek's is in the house! This spot is SO unassuming. There is zero ambiance, but it doesn't even matter because the food is THAT good. I was craving Mediterranean food and Cicek's popped up on Yelp. I wanted to order a kabob plate and they said it would take 15 mins. I was in a bit of a rush, so I opted for 1/2 a rotisserie chicken instead. When I tell you this was the BEST rotisserie chicken I have ever had...holy smokes! It was completely juicy and tender. The skin was perfectly crispy, but not too much. The garlic sauce was super flavorful and paired with the chicken so well. The plate same with your choice of sides and I went with rice pilaf and hummus. The pilaf was delicious and I thought the hummus was just OK. Loved the pickled veggies! It was a lot of food and I was a satisfied customer. I got it to go and the food traveled well! Customer service was excellent. Loads of parking available. So happy I got to discover Ciceks!

    Had the beef filet kebab plate. Portion was mediocre. Overall good tasting. Service was good. The place was kept clean.

    This place used to be a 10/10 5 stars for me for years. Order through Grubhub and got this. What the f*** is this? $21 for this plate and they halved the portions??? Not wasting my time here again. It's a shame when a good place goes this way.

    Not good! Hummus was bitter, the pickled radishes was dry and the shawarma was bland, no taste

    The shawarma is so tasty and never dried out. We sometimes get a pound of it to take home and make pita sandwiches for dinner. Always fresh.

    What a delicious hidden gem in Canoga Park. Was craving Persian food but did not want to drive out…read moreto Northridge to my other favorite Persian place so did a yelp search and Kababe Grill came up. Did not know what to expect because it's located in a building that only has a kitchen facility. I walked in, went to the kitchen door and was greeted by Fred. sweet, caring man that just wants to make delicious food served with a wonderful smile. Since my son was coming over, I ordered two koobedieh combos (beef and chicken ) and a falafel plate. OMG, so good, so much flavor and huge portions. The rice is perfectly seasoned and fluffy, the skewers were juicy and tasty. The falafel, the best I've ever had! So yelp community, I would be so grateful if you support this small family run business. You will not be disappointed. They also cater, score!!

    Scrolling through Yelp in Canoga Park thinking, "I want Mediterranean... specifically…read morePersian/Iranian?" Look no further. This spot is takeout only, hidden in what basically feels like a restaurant warehouse, and as you walk down to pick up your food you genuinely start wondering, "Where the hell am I?" Then the aroma hits and suddenly you're floating like a cartoon character following the smell trail. I got the beef koobideh and WOW! Perfectly seasoned, insanely flavorful, fluffy rice, and the shirazi salad absolutely slapped. All this for $15 in 2026 when gas is $6.30. And the service? So kind. The person I called taking my order was sweet, everyone at pickup was welcoming, and I swear someone's grandma was in the kitchen because the food tasted like a warm hug. I don't usually write reviews unless the food is genuinely special, and I definitely don't gatekeep good food. So if you're craving Persian food, place the order now.
