Middle Eastern restaurant in downtown LA. I didn't realize this was the sister restaurant of…read moreBestia. Overall, I enjoyed every dish we got. I would consider reordering everything we got. Definitely on our list of restaurants to visit again when we're in the area. Ordered: - Hummus Duck 'Nduja - First off, we need to take a moment for the blistered pita. That stuff was soooooo yummy might be my favorite pita I ever consumed. Hummus was also good, nice balance of flavors that complimented each other well. - Grilled Octopus - Had a good amount of chew and wasn't too chewy. Dill flavor was a bit on the strong side but I don't mind it. - Potato Flatbread - Very light and also good. - Slow Roast Lamb Neck Shawarma - Soooo tender fell off the bone so nicely. My favorite dishes were the lamb neck shawarma and the blistered pita. Family style restaurant. We were recommended to order 2 spreads, 3 appetizers, and 1 entree for 3 people. We ended up doing 1 spread, 2 appetizers, and 1 entree and I'm very happy with our decision. We were soooo full after our meal. I think if we did the 2 spread and 3 appetizers as recommend we wouldn't be able to eat the entree at all. Seems like a really popular celebration restaurant (saw many graduations). We did make a reservation and I would recommend doing that. All tables were filled when we were there, not sure how the walk in situation is. Music is a bit loud inside the restaurant but I don't think it was as bad as Bestia. The outside patio was good though in my opinion. I didn't feel like i was yelling across the table to talk on the patio.

The food is still stellar - updating to state that the new-to-me-menu items (peach salad, smoked…read moretrout, chicken tagine and whole lamb rack) are all superb. The tagine in particular was a pleasant surprise; I almost never order chicken, I can cook it plenty fine at home. However: this dish was a revelation (the olives transform during the braise - so creamy/delicious). The only nit to pick: Bavel please change up the playlist; I enjoy Bad Bunny as much as the next person, but the same 4 songs were on repeat all night long.

I had such a great experience at Lucia Mediterranean Grill. I paid $1.25 for an hour of parking,…read morebut it was absolutely money well spent. The restaurant has a really homey feeling inside, with about four small tables that make it feel cozy and welcoming. It's the kind of place where you immediately feel comfortable. My partner and I ordered the chicken shish kebabs with mejadra rice, salad, and sumac fries. Everything was delicious! The plate also came with hummus and pita, which were incredibly fresh and flavorful. The hummus was smooth, rich, and perfect with the warm pita. Hermon helped recommend our food, cooked it, and even served us. She was so kind and made the whole experience feel really personal. She also offered us complimentary baklava, which was amazing. It had the most soft, chewy texture with just enough sweetness. When I asked her what the secret ingredient was, she just smiled and said she couldn't spoil it so you'll have to try it for yourself! Definitely recommend stopping by if you're in the area.

What a great kick off! As for our mains, we both ordered a variation of the combo plates. I had the chicken tawook and beef. The Mrs. had the chicken and lamb. All good. Based on the food alone, we would recommend this place to anyone with a beating heart and more importantly, a mouth. This is quality food at a quality price. The atmosphere? Really great. It's a little dark and twinkly inside which sets a nice tone. There is cool artwork adorning every piece of wall, the place is very easy on the eyes...including the restrooms. Very clean. Our sever, didn't catch his name, but what a nice dude. Was super helpful without being "too much" he should teach a server class. He's pretty much who you want taking care of your table. He knew the menu well and made great suggestions. It was actually refreshing. We will come back, most likely with the family. Our waiter told us that they can accommodate larger groups which is great. I recently ate food at Saffy's and I didn't enjoy it one bit. The servings there are too small, too pretentious and too overpriced. Open Sesame is the exact opposite and that's why it rules. A wonderful experience in Beverly Boulevard.

Tender, boldly seasoned chicken that stays moist and flavorful in every bite. Fluffy basmati rice topped with saffron, fire roasted vegetables that actually taste fire roasted, and a grilled tomato that melts into the rice beautifully. The hummus is smooth and rich, the pink garlic sauce is bright and addictive, and the fresh salad with lemon ties everything together. Every detail feels intentional and homemade. Even the bathroom is impeccably clean, which says everything about the pride they take in this place. I was in the area for training, just eight minutes away, decided to give it a shot and was not disappointed. If you are anywhere near this part of town, come to this spot. I highly recommend it. The service beyond amazing. Thank you

During the online checkout, the website surprisingly still asked for tip (what?) which I politely declined because I was picking it up in person. Total cost for the family plate was ~$83 at the time of writing this. When I went to pick it up around 12 pm lunchtime the next day, the restaurant pick up line was full, but the in person, dining was relatively empty. The restaurant just doesn't have the same atmosphere as it did pre-Covid. The employees were friendly but probably overwhelmed with the amount of customers impatiently waiting to pick up their food. The food was decent, although the quality might taste better sitting down at the restaurant, since the meal is cooked immediately rather than waiting in a to go box. The charboiled chicken shish kabob is still the absolute recommended when eating at Panini Cafe.
