Been eating at this mall for 30 years - every week at Rock-On Pizza next door. This clown (Mujeed) moves in and has my car unlawfully towed ($600) because I'm not "his" customer (was not parked anywhere near his business btw) and he "thinks" I'm not a mall customer. Hey Mujeed, did you even talk to me? No, you just randomly had me towed. Great job damaging the businesses of your neighbors and pissing off repeat customers! Avoid this place and this jerk, eat at Rock-On or Himalayan Chulo instead. At least those owners are decent human beings. By the way the owner of the mall is also a piece of work, just laughed at me when I brought it to his attention. On second thought, avoid this mall all together! read more

Came here for an impromptu late Saturday lunch, sat on the patio, and our food (beef/lamb wrap and chicken kabob plate) came out fairly quickly and seemed freshly made! The tzatziki sauce was really good, and the spices on the meat were too. Give this hidden gem a shot! read more

Healthy Grill - Chicken kabob plate - Mediterranean Near Me - Escondido, California

I asked if the beef kabob was pure beef, and after tasting it I could tell it was mixed with lamb. Once I tried the food, I asked again if it was pure beef, and the employee told me that today it wasn't, and that it's usually 80% beef and 20% lamb. I feel like I was misled. read more

This place is a tiny spot that is a great to go spot. Seating inside is very limited. I have been here twice and both times it was excellent. The Greek salad with a kebab was delicious. He gave me a dressing as well as taziki which was so good. The feta cubes are so soft and creamy. Since it comes with some flatbread on top (not sure if it's called something specific). I made my own wrap with it and it hit the spot! There's only ever been one guy working who I assume is the owner but not sure. He makes your order himself and it comes out great each time. It's worth the wait for it to be made with care. I want to try all their things so I'll be back! read more

Healthy Grill - So good! 2 skewers - Mediterranean Near Me - Escondido, California

This is a gem being a hole in the wall place located inside of a plaza. Serving Mediterranean food, I was craving something tasty and healthy. I ended up ordering a combo plate with both chicken kabob and Koobideh. It came with a salad, rice, and grilled tomato. The meats were FANTASTIC! Both the chicken and koobideh were so flavorful and tender. I've had a lot of meat that is too dry or bland, but this is definitely not one of them. The service was very good. They definitely value customer service, as evidenced by checking in on me and offering me water. Due to being such a small establishment, it definitely helps to have good service and great food! I'm not in the area often, would definitely come back when back in the area. read more

Healthy Grill - Kabob Koobideh & Chicken Kabob w/ Basmati Rice - Mediterranean Near Me - Escondido, California

Really good. Some of the dishes are similar to how my grandma and aunt used to make them. We ordered for delivery and the food arrived quickly and well packaged. We had the Barberry Rice with Chicken Kabob, Fesenjoon w/ Basmati Rice, Hummus w/ Pita Bread, and the Mediterranean Chicken Soup. The Hummus is spicier than the more Lebanese Hummus, probably with a Persian touch or another country in the region. Either way, it was a healthy and enjoyable meal. read more

I love this Persian kabob spot! They have the juiciest beef kabob plate with fluffy basmati rice. We grab a plate and enjoy the comfort of delicious and healthy food. read more

Healthy Grill - Mediterranean Near Me - Escondido, California

Located in a small shopping center. Parking is decent. Once inside the menu is either on a TV or laminated on the front counter. A bit confusing for a 1st timer. Also to-go containers and other stuff are stored on racks in the front of the Store, where usually you would find those things in a back storage room. Tables and chairs are stacked on the inside, but not allowed to sit outside. "For Take Out Only." Even though other food places have outdoor seating available. Not sure why they don't bring out the tables and chairs. Had to wait a bit fir the food. I ordered a chicken kabob with pita bread. I was Pleasantly surprised on how tasty the food. The chicken had great flavor and the Tzatziki sauce went well with the wrap. Had plenty of veggies stuffed inside and the pita was thin and not too thick. read more

This place has no flavor. The vibe is weird and the owner doesnt seem to think hes doing anything wrong. The chicken comes out juicy but has absolutely no flavor its just all wrong. I asked for chili and he gave me a ramekin of red hot smdh not authentic really bad! I really hope they rebrand themselves something spectacular including the use of spice or close theres no need for another horrible place to eat. They wont be remembered and should be forgotten . read more

Got the chicken kebab wrap, low quality ingredients. tatziki was decent. guy took painfully slow to make it

My favorite place for Kebabs. Very delicious, juicy and great portion size. The owner and his wife truly care about their business. They are very nice people. read more

The rating is not about the food but rather the owners attitude. We parked the n their stall before they open not knowing until he place his sign behind my vehicle. Keep in mind they open at 1130a, we parked at 11a. He a rude and racist saying we don't speak English. Our family is well educated and have degrees with American college/university, born and raise in US. I'm sure a video will go viral because I saw someone video and I hope it does. It stated because he put a sign after we parked for 30mins. He threaten us with police being called and ready to tow our vehicle away. He claimed he has it on video, well if he does then he can clearly see that we parked there before he open. He alway came us aggressively which was on called for. We called the police on him but we cancelled the call because one, we felt we are using police resources which in my view was not worth their time. Second, we had places to go, three karma will be ten fold. My view and opinion is if you want to support his racist business that's fine. But I will not support his business and wish him luck. read more

Was pretty dissatisfied with their food. Tried the kabob koobideh, chicken kabob and the eggplant boorani. Let me just start and say that this food does not represent authentic Persian food and anyone that has tried Persian food would tell you the same thing. And, I'm Persian for that matter and kabob and saffron rice is my jam. The koobideh had an off-putting smell and was clearly not fresh ground beef. It was lacking flavor and I don't believe they season it that well, which results in a rolled up meatloaf without the Persian style sumac and onion characteristics that makes the meat juicy and succulent. As for the chicken kabob... Oh boy, let me tell you... As a Persian, this was the biggest abomination that I've come across from a place that is clearly persian-owned. They don't even use saffron on their chicken!! Every Persian would tell you that a chicken kabob ALWAYS has saffron & yogurt marinated chicken. Their chicken does NOT have any saffron and is over-cooked and dry. As for any Persian kabob dish, there should be grilled tomatoes which they also mess up by not grilling them enough so you'll end up with a near raw tomato. No grilled onions or any other veggies in sight, so that's pretty disappointing. The rice was pretty low grade basmati and not the fluffy kind your Persian maman would make. Again, no sight of saffron here either. The eggplant (bademjan) boorani was decent and had walnuts inside which is not common, but interesting although I personally prefer the smooth boorani without any nuts. It comes with a couple of small pieces of pita. Overall, pretty lackluster and not authentic. The food felt rushed, and the meat was not fresh The chicken did not have any saffron color or taste. And I'm supper bummed out that I'd have to give a low rating to a place that clearly could have made a better effort in representing our food and culture and is instead cutting corners to make it another day. Won't be going back here, unfortunately... Addendum: It appears that most (all?) top-rated reviews are from non-persians so I'll hold my breath for a Persian to give their 2¢. read more

Don't pass up this place next time you are by Shell gas station off the Rancho Pkwy exit on 15. Not many reviews yet because they haven't been found by Yelpers yet! Good serving size, yummy treats, fresh grilled meals food made with awesome ingredients. They will do catering too so consider for office lunch or family party. The owner says they are not able to do indoor seating due to pandemic rules, but you can sit outside with your take out. P.S. The chef stays masked when he prepares meals, and the owner says staff are all vaccinated. Also check hours and days off (Sunday and Monday) right now. If they close at 7pm, they can still make your food fresh by 615pm order. read more

This place feels very homey and the food felt like it was made with love. Very happy with my meal. I got a chicken kabob meal and everything was perfect! read more

Let me start by saying I don't usually order out, but today I had a craving for a delicious salad. I came across Healthy Grill on Uber Eats since I was unable to pick up this evening. Everything looked good online. I proceeded to order a Greek salad with koobideh kabob, pita with hummus and some baklava. Once I placed the order, I realized my address was incorrect on the Uber Eats App. I quickly called Healthy Grill and spoke with Mike. He was very professional and offered to take down my address for the address. Mike went one step further to call me once the driver picked up my order to assure me the driver had my correct address. I will be returning for this kind of customer service! The food was all delicious ! My kids especially loved the baklava !! A big thank you to Healthy Grill! read more

The kebabs are decent but the stews aren't very good. Not much tomato sauce or stew and the quality of meat is sub par.

Iv tried this restaurant many times so my review will be fair. Their Beef Koobideh does not taste fresh, it is more on the bland side with not much flavor. Also They don't give you things on the side like all of the other restaurants, fresh Sabzi, butter, bread and onion. To me a restaurant should always include this. There's many better Persian food restaurants I prefer in both quality and service. read more

We ordered dinner for our family vacation of 11 people. We decided to give this Mediterranean/ Lebanese place a try as it was close to our vacation house by Lake Hodges. We ordered everything from chicken and beef kebab, salmon to lamb shanks. EVERYTHING tasted fresh, tender and delicious!! Hummus was also good and creamy with the right spices. The owner or the manager was nice and super attentive. Great prices too!! We will definitely come back the next time we are in Escondido. Well-deserving of 5 stars !!! read more

Amazing. Real Persian food; better than Luna grill! Fresh and authentic, healthy and deist. Try the combo kebab - you won't be disappointed read more

We ordered the beef-lamb kabob and Barbary chicken kabob for takeaway. Both were tender and juicy. I'm getting hungry just thinking about it. Maybe we'll order from them tonight. read more

Not good food. Are here one time and taste is not good. I have had kabob several times at many places. I like this one the least.

Not a good experience specially with the owner, no smile no welcoming at all. Food is not close to the Mediterranean food. Not recommended, Also the place is so small. read more

Horrible food- rice was burned and inedible - no utensils provided so not sure how i was expected to eat it. salad was awful and dressing had no taste do not recommend!!! read more

I really wanted to leave a positive review, but the food quality was not good. This is a one star review, but I did get a refund with no fuss. The food tasted old. The rice must've been 3 days old at least. The stew was maybe same or older. Then the owner said they had prepared that morning. You can't lie about that to foodies. Hope this was just a one time event and food is does taste good and fresh in the future. Also, food is is expensive. read more

This place just opened a couple weeks ago and we're so happy to have a healthy and tasty Mediterranean place close by. I had the Chicken Wrap and my husband had the chicken Kebob with rice and salad. The chicken is very moist and flavorful. The rice was extremely fluffy and light. Everything tasted fresh. I would probably get what my husband got so you can really taste the chicken vs being in a heavy tortilla wrap. We will definitely return. Also very reasonable price wise. read more

I would give 0 stars if I could the food is never tasty or authentic and it saddens me this owner uses our hard earned money to front his lavish lifestyle by serving us food that isn't authentic. I've taken my Persian friends here and we can all agree they do not know what they are doing, I wish people would know that before they tried it but I guess this why I am here to let people know. What a rip off. Over priced bs. read more

Poor ambiance was exacerbated by EVERYTHING plastic. No restrooms? Oh my! Basically, an expensive food truck without wheels
