    Beef and chicken plate

    Clean environment, friendly staff, food was good. I do wish it came with atleast one pocket bread for the price. Although generous amount of salad given. Overall pretty good might come back in the future.

    Don't bother coming here. Everything was tasteless. I had to salt everything to give it some flavor. The garlic sauce tasted like garlic-flavored ranch. So disappointed as I was so hungry after a 3-hour drive.

    We ordered takeout from here and it was ready in 20 minutes. The place seemed nice enough. You order at the counter and then take it to your table. My wife got the shish kebab dinner and it actually came rare like we ordered it. We have often had problems with Mediterranean food not coming rare. My wife says it was some of the best shish kebab that she has had. My daughter and I ordered the kafta kebab which is a combination of beef and lamb and it was a touch dry. One of the options on the app was to get half Bulger, but neither of our dinners came with it like we ordered. The salad was excellent with pita chips and a nice subtle dressing. All in all, I recommend it.

    Garlic sauce is worth the hype! So good and able to be spread unlike garlic sauces at other places. Chicken is always good quality. The food was hot, fresh, and came out quickly for the 3 of us who dined in. Even the fattoush salad(which I'm usually not a fan of) was so good, I don't know what they put in their dressing but it's delicious. Two girls working the front answered questions and were friendly, they also seemed to have a lot of regulars come in. Inside is clean with minimal decor, no clutter. Just very open and fresh. Only drawback was the pita wasn't too good. Not very soft, I don't know if it was old or just not the best quality. It doesn't affect the rating, everything is great! I'll have to try their baklava next.

    Fresh salad, hot spicy chicken, rice, side of pita and garlic dipping sauce.

    4/27/25 5:45pm We have discovered a new favorite. The combination of friendly service, great atmosphere, and AMAZING hot fresh meal was impressive. I appreciated the attention to detail in packaging my takeout order, which kept my salad fresh and crunchy. Serving portions were also impressive. I will be back and I recommend!

    I did not realize this place was so close to my home. I was pretty exhausted from a long day of work and didn't feel like making dinner. I called and placed my order around 4:20 PM. The clerk on the phone said my order would be ready in 20 min. I got there about 4:45 and it was ready to go. The place is nice inside with modern and clean decor. I didn't take a photo of the soda fountain but it was at the end of the dining area and kind of hidden around the corner from view of the cashier counter. They also offered sliced cheesecake and some sort of chocolate pie in the refrigerated display case. I was a little shocked when the cashier told me that my order was $51. I also always tip on take out because I know small businesses took a big hit during this pandemic. So after tip, it was $61. It was my mistake but I didn't realize there were 2 different prices for lunch and dinner plates. Dinner plates cost about $3-5 more. Dinner prices run about $19-20 an entree. It didn't even make much sense to me that the 2 beef kabob dinner plate is $20 while the chicken and beef combo is $19.75. We all know chicken is cheaper and it should have been more like $17-18. The prices are the only reason why I knocked off a star. My order was for 2 people. I ordered one beef kabob entree, one chicken and beef kabob entree and an order of 4 samosas. The kabob plates come with a fattoush salad, rice pilaf and garlic sauce. The salad was actually really good. No cheap iceberg lettuce here. It was all dark leafy greens. There are small pieces of baked pita crisps in it with an ever so light mint flavor. The kabobs come with 4 pieces of meat with a slice of onion and green bell pepper. The chicken had good flavor and wasn't dry but I really enjoyed the beef. I am eating less beef these days and prefer chicken more often but honestly get the beef! The rice was well seasoned, al dente firmness with a buttery flavor. The samosas were a little smaller in size than expected but they had a very nice crispy dough and nice soft curry potato and peas flavor inside. I think if I were to return, I would come for lunch. That dinner price is hard to swallow for take-out.

    We ordered a kebab dinner via Grub hub. We got it in about 15 minutes, so excellent service. The dinner was delicious, the beef was delicious and very tender, food was still warm. We may try the chicken next. I very much recommend them. No comments on Ambiance as we didn't go to the restaurant. If you want kebab dinner give them a try!

    Beef kabob, rice and salad. Lunch serving. Very delicious

    The service was excellent. Very friendly and helpful. My order was cooked fresh after I ordered it. I had the beef kabob, rice and salad. The seasoning was very delicious Cooked to perfection.

And so, the rice was so delicious, lamb so succulent that it almost melted in my mouth. The server was so kind and sweet, even with a jam packed midday lunch crowd. Everyone there seemed like they were being treated like family and like they eat there all the time. Aside from the above, which would easily be enough for a positive review here, there's even more. As I rushed out of the restaurant, I left my credit card. In my haste to be the 3-hour traffic back up to the Bay Area, I completely forgot until I got halfway back home, stopped for gas, and realized I couldn't pay for my gas with my card. I called them and luckily the same gal who was my server picked up and remembered me, confirmed she had my CC and told me to come back and get it. I told her I was back up in Oakland and asked a HUUUUUUGE Favor of them, to mail my CC back to me to save me the 6 hour round trip drive and ALL the headache I'd incur of getting a new card and having to redo all of the auto-pay set for countless bills with a new card number. Guess what? They did it! They took time from their busy lives, put a customer's needs first and saw past my human error and so generously sent my card to my home. Places like this family owned, down home place restore my faith in humanity and make me wish more places like this existed all over. "Thank you" doesn't even do justice for my gratitude to these folks. Can't wait to sit and dine with you all again. Huge thanks Phoenician Garden Folks

    This original location remains my recommended spot for Mediterranean food. Many Mediterranean…read morerestaurants in Fresno County are Armenian-owned, while only a small handful--like this family-run restaurant--specialize in Lebanese cuisine. Lebanese food is widely considered among the best expressions of Mediterranean cooking due to its vibrant use of fresh ingredients, particularly herbs, lemon, garlic, and olive oil, along with a strong emphasis on healthy, plant-based, and grilled dishes. It offers diverse, shareable, and nutrient-dense options such as tabbouleh, hummus, and falafel, making it both flavorful and nutritious. I always enjoy dining at Golden Grill because they exemplify Lebanese cuisine so well. Their dishes highlight fresh herbs like mint and parsley, along with garlic and lemon juice, rather than relying heavily on spices. The result is a light, refreshing, and aromatic flavor profile that feels both vibrant and balanced. The kebabs are excellent. The grilled cubes of beef, chicken, and kafta (ground beef and lamb) skewers are flavorful, tender, and juicy, topped with herbs and grilled to perfection. They carry a subtle smokiness and savory aroma, and the meats are beautifully charred with vibrant color. Their pita and saj sandwiches are also very well done. Each sandwich is warm and carefully assembled, forming a sturdy pocket filled with high-quality ingredients. They combine savory meats (or falafel and vegetables), creamy sauces, and crunchy pickles and onions into a balanced bite. The bread holds generous fillings without collapsing while still being tender enough to bite through easily. The pocket opens cleanly, creating the perfect pouch for the ingredients. For a small restaurant with limited seating that appears to receive many to-go orders, the presentation for dine-in guests is especially thoughtful. The dishes are served on clean white ceramic plates and trays, with the food carefully arranged and portions balanced. It is simple yet elegant and visually appealing. Golden Grill also captures the Lebanese mezze-style dining experience. As someone of Korean heritage, I appreciate this approach, since it is similar to how Korean meals are served with many shared dishes that provide variety in every meal. Some of the shared plates include Lebanese staples like hummus, falafel, tabbouleh, baba ghanouj, and fresh flatbread. Everything here tastes fresh and well-prepared, with distinct textures and aromatic flavors. The signature entrées come with two cold appetizers. The hummus is silky smooth, a velvety blend of garbanzo beans and tahini that almost melts in your mouth. The baba ghanouj is creamy, garlicky, and finished with olive oil. The tabbouleh is bright and balanced with lemon juice, garlic, and a generous drizzle of olive oil that ties together the citrusy and earthy flavors. The restaurant itself is clean, with tables and chairs wiped down quickly after guests leave. Service is friendly, welcoming, and helpful when placing orders. Prices are also reasonable, especially considering many competing Mediterranean restaurants do not place the same emphasis on presentation or on creating a mezze-style dining experience at no additional cost. While some may prefer other Mediterranean cuisines, I personally enjoy the fresh, light, and diverse flavors that Lebanese food offers. Golden Grill's citrus-forward dishes and extensive mezze options make it one of my favorite Mediterranean spots.
