    Greek Bowl
    Alexis B.

    On Tuesday, May 20, 2025, I placed an Online DD Order that included 2 Greek Bowls with Chicken, a side of Fries, and a side of Fire Feta Dip. When I received my DD, I noticed the driver forgot one of the Greek Bowls so I asked if he can go back and he said no. I then called in to see if I can come pick it up myself, to which the Cashier, Eric, said no I need to take it up with DD and abruptly hung up. I decided to "take the L" and forget about it. I then opened my plate to the worst plate I have ever received by Daphne's. The plate did not include Veggies, as the Greek Bowls states, the bowl also came with a glob of regular Fire Feta Dip, not rhe sauce. The chicken was charred, as if it was overcooked and old, the rice was so hard and tasted of char, and again, they forgot a whole other plate. When I opened and saw how the plate looked, I called back and asked if I could my money back because the bowl given was not what I ordered, Eric and/or Anthony, then proceeded to say they could not refund me because I already received the plate. I let Eric know there were no Veggies and the Fire Feta was a Dip and not the Sauce, he then said they were out of Veggies and FF Sauce. I let him know I've worked at plety of restaurants/fast food places with DD to know, there is the customer's # on the order and they should have called. I also want to make note that I specifically called to place the order for the Side of FF Sauce, which would've also given him the opportunity to let me know about the No Veggies or FF Sauce and I would've cancelled the order then and there, but he unfortunately, did not take that opportunity. All in all, this was the worst plate I have received and the worst service I have received in all the years I've been a customer to Daphne's. I have watched this building get taken over by different owner and different owner time and time again, but this time makes me never want to attend this location again. Just want to note, Anthony and Eric need a lot of customer service training. Again, this is coming from someone that has been a server for years and I have managed many other restaurants/fast food places, so I know how customers can be. This means I also know how rude the employees can also be to guests and just blatantly show they do not care about the guests at all.

    Do not take without asking.

    First time here. The front cashier was welcoming and helpful, answered all my questions. That's the extent of my positive experience in the lobby. I waited for my food and heard one of the employees casually cursing every other word he spoke, calling everyone bro, all while the few guests in the lobby were watching them. I got my food, but no napkins, silverware, etc. No problem. I got up to get my own from a customer facing tray full of napkins, disposables forks, knives, etc. I smile at the guy behind the grill and grab a fork. He says I need to ask for any of those things, "bro." I couldn't tell if he was joking at first, but he affirmed any forward facing napkins and utensils, I need to ask to be given to me because there's other customers. No sign saying we couldn't self serve. I didn't expect that given it's customer facing. Between the lunch full of F words and being unkindly told I couldn't have a napkin and fork without asking, I probably won't come back. Professionalism is pretty low here. The food was good though.

    Funny story on how I came to visit Daphne's... well, I was at R&B Tea getting my Vietnamese sandwiches & boba drinks and I wanted to check-in via Yelp. Somehow I clicked on Daphne's instead of R&B Tea. So I took a second glance and said what kind of foods does Daphne's sells. Surprise surprise... they sell Mediterranean foods. I love Mediterranean foods! So I headed over here to check them out since I already checked in LOL... Daphne's have very good space for dining. Quite a colorful joint. Lots of food options to choose from. I ended up getting the mix & match plate with 1 chicken kebab and 1 steak kebab... it also comes with roasted veggies, Spanish rice, some kind of yogurt called tzatzit, and pita bread. I was hoping to really like my plate. Unfortunately, the chicken was a tad dry IMHO... I don't eat steak so I can't comment on it. Rice was on the harder side... needs more water. Veggies were good. Yogurt was light. Chunks of the meats and all the sides were on the smaller side... wished they were bigger in portions especially with the price paid at $23+. Staff was pleasant and friendly. Ambience was bright especially with the red and blue chairs. Will I be back? I really don't know. They are better than Zaky's Mediterranean so maybe I'll give them another try. At least now I know they exist and I can drop by when I'm in the area. Happy Daphne'ing!

    Delicious food great atmosphere highly recommended! I got the spicy chicken pita, rice, and baclava. So tasty!

    Where's the rest of the food?

    SKIP THIS PLACE!!! This ain't it chief! Food was half empty. Overseasoned and over priced steak. They didn't even fill the plate with rice they banked on stuffing it with vegetables to make the plate look full. The pita bread was as dry as the desert. We paying 25$ for what air? Pathetic bland food and the place can't even cook rice it was undercooked and dry. How do you not know how to cook rice?

    Looks like it was thrown together in a hurry. Smh

    They will never get another dime from me. Came in around 5PM today and witnessed the young kid working behind the counter (wearing a black tee shirt and gold chains around his neck) laugh and make fun of a lady for telling him to have a good night. Yes, the sun was still out when she said it, but why disrespect a paying customer? She was just being polite. I ordered the classic pita with gyros. They gave me a classic pita with falafel. When I asked for the correct sandwich, the cook was visibly annoyed and had an attitude. How dare I ask for the thing I ordered. Maybe if he wasn't so busy trying to have a conversation with me, he would have actually listened and got it right the first time? Also, the first sandwich they gave me looked disgusting. Thanks for coming to my Ted talk. Never again!!

    I was in the area and decided to try this place. I almost didn't walk in because the restaurant appeared to be closed. I'm glad that I did approach the place. The cashier was very nice and helped me pick a dish. The place appeared to be clean but empty. The dish that picked didn't have a variety of items on it but the portion was a good size...and I'm not a big eater. It was delicious with some spicy yummy sauce. I've attached a pic and I'll be back if I'm ever in the area.

    I have ordered from here through UberEats twice. The food is always amazing, but I have one serious bone to pick. They require you to make the order a combo when you order a pita through uber eats. The cost is $7, which is outrageous for fries and drink. Both times I have failed to receive my drink. When you charge customers that much for extras, they had best recieve those extras. On top of I didn't even want the soda and fries, you have to pick it to finish your order.

    Mix and Match Plate

    Poor quality, under seasoned, cold vegetables. Everything was very dry and and pretty disappointing for a $20 plate of food.

Not a lot of Arab/Lebanese spots do it well or even offer it, so I'm glad this place does. It's easily one of the underrated items on the menu. Tony and his son are always there taking care of people, and at this point they honestly feel like family. That kind of hospitality is a big reason we keep coming back. Reliable food, welcoming people, and one of those local spots you're always happy to support.

If you're looking for the definitive Lebanese experience in the IE, this is the order to beat. The Breakdown: * The Trio Grill: You get a sampling of everything--chicken, beef, and kefta kebabs. The chicken kebab was the standout for me; it was incredibly tender and had that perfect open-flame char that you just can't replicate at home. * Baba Ghanoush: This was a smoky revelation. You can taste the fire-roasted eggplant in every bite, and the texture was perfectly whipped and creamy without losing its soul. It's easily some of the best in the area. * Tabouleh: So many places use too much bulgur, but Mezzaterranean does it right. It was a bright, herbaceous explosion of fresh parsley and lemon that cut through the richness of the grilled meats perfectly. * The Extras: It all comes together with their fluffy rice and warm pita. Pro tip: use the pita to make little "mini-tacos" with a piece of chicken, a dollop of baba ghannouj, and a pinch of tabouleh. The Verdict: The portions on the Trio Plate are massive (definitely enough to share, though you might not want to). Everything tasted fresh, vibrant, and authentic. It's clear this family-run spot puts a lot of heart into their recipes. 10/10, will be back for more of that garlic sauce!

It's unfortunate because I genuinely enjoyed coming here and was a frequent customer. However, since the staff has changed, the quality of both the service and overall experience has noticeably declined. Sadly, this experience has convinced me not to return to this location. I hope management takes customer feedback seriously, improves employee training, and focuses on providing the level of service that loyal customers have come to expect.

Found them at Terra Vista Town Center in Rancho Cucamonga. Plentiful parking. Cool! Got here close to closing time and they were still packed with customers. It's a good sign when customers are still coming in till the end. Well done CAVA! Interior was bright and clean. Non-occupied tables were busted. Both indoor and outdoor seatings are available. Fountain drink station and selective standalone drinks are present for your choosing. Restrooms are in the back of the restaurant. Got in line with maybe about 10+ people ahead of me. I feel their system needs to be improved a bit. I understand they can't move forward with the bowls until the bowls in the front are done. Every step of the way, our bowls were filled, but just sitting there getting cold until the previous bowls are done. Not sure how they can improve the assembly. Btw, their ingredients stations were messy not the most organized bins. Crumbs of stuff all over the place. You'll see what I mean when you see the photos. They really need to keep their stations clean and organized. Anyway, I wanted to try the Spicy Lamb Bowl, but the meat didn't look as great as the ones at Pasadena. So I got the Harissa Honey Chicken Avocado Bowl again. The chicken was not in big chunks like the other place. Oh well. Got the bowl as the chef curated plus a few more toppings such slaw, tomato + cucumber, and tomato + onion. Unlimited toppings as many as you choose. Selective toppings such as avocado may have an extra charge. Soda water wasn't working great at the fountain station. Someone needs to check it out. Bowl was good, but was not as good as the one I had at Pasadena. Something was off about it. Maybe the ingredients did not have the same level of preparation and freshness. Not really sure. One more thing, this bowl doesn't normally come with a pita, but I was offered one pita free of charge at the Pasadena location. I wasn't offered the same here. Bummer! Staff was okay not the most welcoming and smiliest. Nonetheless, still a great place to get one of their Chef-Curated Bowls at varying prices or Build Your Own (BYO) bowl starting at $12.95. Just be mindful the price could add up with BYO. I may return again, but during earlier hours and not at almost closing time. Hopefully the stations will be much cleaner and organized. Thanks CAVA!

Since then I tried their express locations including the one in orange and now in Chino hills. I usually get their plates with shrimp or salmon and a choice of 2 sides.

Fountain soda was only $2 and I decided to try their baklava. Meal came out to about $32. I think their rice and garlic sauce tasted consistent to their other locations. Salmon was okay, Mediterranean salad was decent, but their grape leaves weren't great. I ate 1 out of 3 pieces. Should have gotten their hummus. I also didn't get any olives and pickled veggies with my order and I usually enjoy those. I also got a small piece of baklava which was a very small portion compared to what they had on their display. It was quite oily so I didn't finish it. Given that there were only 2 customers in person at the time including myself, my order still took 25 minutes. I would also advise them to clean their soda fountain. Liquid that collects at the bottom of the tray seems to be very dirty. Anywho, I would give the food 3 stars. It's so-so.
