    Tried chicken shawarma kebab and food was actually good, I finished it all. Although this was not a typical Shawarma, it was cooked on a horizontal grill like Greek souvlaki. Service was also good. Restaurant needs a little bit of cleaning, tables and seats were clean, but under the chairs and beneath seating area did not look clean. Plenty of parking outside.

    Food was great ! We enjoyed lunch very much . My husband was disappointed they didn't serve beer but they do have a wine selection . You order at the counter but food comes out to your table ! Nice touch ! It was surprisingly slow for a Sunday lunch . You are only about 1 mile (or less from the beach) they also have a few tables outside which later in the afternoon would be better to sit at (the building will provide the shade) . I enjoyed the music . We both ordered the smaller meal (they offer two sizes) Husband ordered the lamb kebabs (loved it ) and I got the falafel plate !!! Delicious!!

    Great food great service nice people friendly little place to have some fantastic Mediterranean food. You have to try the pork chops.

    Beef Kebab Plate

    Decided last minute to try this spot. Walk in and order the kebab plate to go. They were very quick on completing my order. The kebab, cucumber yogurt, and humus were amazing. Highly recommend this plate and very filling.

    Nice and creamy hummus with pine nuts.  Very good!

    I've had lamb before, but I wanted to try it again. It's tender, but a bit too gamey for me. I was told the beef chunks are filet, so obviously very tender. Not too sure about Falafel, but the influencer on the reel I saw said it was the BEST he's ever had. The hummus was very creamy and I love pine nuts! Thumbs up on the hummus. Got the beet salad (which was just roasted beets, and the Mediterranean salad, which I've had way better. Just ok) Next time I need to order more veggies. Spent about $60, but we got 3 meals out of it, so not bad. It's in the Mama's on 39th Center. The owner was nice & friendly.

    While not located within South Coast Plaza, D'vine is a popular dining option especially the Santa Ana location is near the intersection of South Bristol Street and MacArthur Boulevard, which is close to the South Coast Plaza Mall and Segerstrom Center for the Arts. DVine is known for the quality and flavor particularly the chicken shawarma, filet mignon kebabs, grilled chicken and hummus. The garlic sauce is fluffy, flavorful, and a perfect complement to any dishes. The restaurant is cleaned and well-maintained, with a pleasant ambiance. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating. DVine Mediterranean Experience is a popular choice for those seeking authentic and flavorful Mediterranean cuisine. For dessert, they serve the classic Baklava. The Baklava is rich and perfectly sweet topped with chopped nuts. DVine recently launches the Dubai chocolate cookie skillet topped with ice cream and drizzled in chocolate and pitasio sauce. The cookie is freshly baked and simple melt in your mouth. It tastes amazing with Turkish coffee. Turkish coffee $2 The service is friendly, professional, and attentive. I appreciate the staff's willingness to offer recommendations, answer questions, and ensure a positive dining experience.  What I got: -Half Chicken -- Grilled -Chicken Shawarma-- Thinly sliced chicken seasoned with shawerma seasoning. -Beef Kebab -- Grilled Filet mignon -Falafe -- Lightly fried Chickpeas - Parsley - Onions. -Mix Any 2 Or 3 Proteins-- Beef and Chicken -Shrimp Kebab-- Grilled Marinated Shrimp.

    Ordered a falafel sandwich and fries to go Fries are seasoned fyi - but I wish they were plain fries They seemed to be understaffed and there was a new employee there so food took a little bit of a long time The falafel was pretty good but what I didn't like was it was wrapped up tight like a burrito and not cut in half This steamed the Lettuce salad and pickles and made all the stuff that should be cold and crispy warm and soggy instead

    I eat Mediterranean food pretty often, and this place honestly stands out. You can tell the meat is cooked with care, and I liked that they grill it fresh right in front of you when you order. The owner, Steve, was very friendly, and the staff overall were welcoming and easy to talk to. Portions were generous, especially for the price. We ordered lamb, beef, and chicken. The chicken was tender, and the lamb didn't have that strong smell that sometimes turns me off. What surprised me most was the beef--it was much better than I expected and reminded me of a steak. I'd recommend ordering it medium. I've mostly had Mediterranean food from chain spots around OC, and this felt more like a proper, well-made meal rather than fast-casual. Definitely a place I'd come back to.

    How have we not been here! Such a hidden gem! Delicious juicy meat and a lot of sides to choose from. The flat bread was so fluffy and yummy i wanted more! Must try! The place is hidden but in a busy strip mall. Service was great.

    Dvine is divine! We came in the late afternoon and perhaps since it was outside of the normal lunch/dinner rush, there was only one person working and had to do all the order taking/cashier and also food cooking/bringing dishes out to the customers. All that being said, it meant that there would be a longer wait for our food. But the food was worth the wait! The plates all come with 2 sides. The hummus (always the obvious first choice!) was great and the pitas were amazing (slightly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside). The other side we had was just ok - mediterranean salad was not so much a salad but just some veggies (cucumbers/tomatoes/bell peppers). Kefta was tasty, and the chicken kebab was quite soft and not dry at all. Beef skewer was a bit chewy but also flavorful. Also, the rice the plates came with was *chef's kiss* with the flavor and I couldn't get enough of it. I was underwhelmed by the chicken shawarma wrap though. I wanted to like it with all the ingredients. The size was massive (good for sharing unless you're really starving), but it was too much oil inside and felt like a bit mushy overall. Kids meal - one skewer and either fries or rice. Ample seating inside, and just a nice casual vibe. All in all, would definitely come back!

We moved further away, so it just slipped out of the regular rotation--but it's one of those places I've always remembered fondly and definitely missed. Happy to report it's still very good. I came in craving a shawarma combo, so I went with the chicken and lamb combo and chose cucumber-tomato salad and tzatziki for the two sides. Everything was well prepared and flavorful, just like I remembered. The portions are big, the kind where if you're not a huge eater you can easily turn one plate into two meals. Always appreciate that. Service was friendly and welcoming, and the place felt clean and well kept. It has that family-run feel, which adds to the experience. The only thing that's changed a bit over the years is the value. Prices are definitely higher than I remember, but honestly that seems to be the case everywhere these days. The generous portions help balance that out. Located in a strip mall in Westminster, it may not be flashy, but if you're looking for solid Mediterranean food, big servings, and friendly service, it still delivers. Glad I made the return visit. Definitely won't let it be so long next time.

    Don't come here often, but I may be changing that…read more Had a great experience here last night and although I thought it was still a bit overpriced for what you got, it does seem better than my previous experiences. I got the half chicken dinner for my husband. They asked me if I wanted rice (or not?) ... Don't recall them giving or asking that question previously. Maybe it's something new? He likes the Mediterranean cucumber/tomato salad, so I ordered that for both of his sides. While waiting for my order, I decided to get some hummus also, so I ordered a small side which was only $5 and included 2 pita breads. So, once again, my husband made the comment saying he really likes this chicken because it's so moist. Trust me, he doesn't keep track of where I'm purchasing from. I just know he means it cuz he said it more than twice now about Zankou chicken. So, for the price, I got one entire half chicken meal, two nice scoops of cucumber/tomato salad, two pita breads & two single containers of (delicious) toom. ... AND container of hummus & two more pita breads! He almost ate it all, but there was enough chicken left to make a sandwich for his lunch today. I slathered hummus on a pita and shredded the leftover chicken. I brought the half container of leftover hummus to work and put some of it on a low carb tortilla with egg & stir fried veggies. Even more delicious and healthy with the hummus!! Thank you for stepping up your serving sizes. I'm sure it depends on the server, but hopefully it stays consistent. Maybe I just had a few bad previous experiences with very small portion sizes. It's well worth the price now.

She also suggested trying the famous garlic sauce. I ordered the garlic sauce, hummus, tzatziki, and rice. The garlic sauce wasn't quite what I expected--it was very firm, almost like a butter spread, which made it a little difficult to spread. The tzatziki was thicker than I'm used to, more like a paste, but it had a really great flavor. The rice was a simple, well-cooked white rice that paired nicely with the meal. Both the chicken and the beef were flavorful, juicy, and well-seasoned. Overall, I really enjoyed my first visit. If I'm ever in the area again, I'd definitely stop by. The food was delicious, and the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming!
