    Chicken Shawarma Plate and side of falafel
    Cassie C.

    Delicious and fast Greek food that's conveniently local for me! Great spot to stop for lunch with a lot of options. You can never go wrong with one of the shawarma plates - large portions and quite delicious. Easy order at the counter and seating indoor and out.

    It was our first time in that restaurant. It is clean and nice ambiance, service is good and quick and people are very welcoming. Food was not bad, I liked the chicken seasoning and it was juicy. But the bread was bad. I believe it is like a pita bread, which i have never seen before been used for Shawarma wraps. Usually places and even at home we use lavash. The moment we opened our shawarma it started to fall appart and made it very messy and uncomfortable to eat. And we ate in the restaurant, so it is not like pita got soggy and fell apart, we ate our food after it was just made. If they change pita to lavish it will be way better food. Overall, it is pretty good.

    I brought my son and his friend here after seeing a picture of the Dubai chocolate bar on their door. The inside was pretty underwhelming--felt more like a cafeteria than a café. Nothing special atmosphere-wise. Unfortunately, the staff wasn't very friendly or helpful when we had questions about the menu, so we decided not to eat there. But I had promised the boys the Dubai chocolate bar, so we ordered one to-go. I was shocked when they rang me up--$24.77 for a single chocolate bar! When we tried it, all three of us thought it was terrible. None of us could even finish it. It also came unwrapped in a plain bag, which felt sketchy--no visible brand, no expiration date. Honestly, skip this place. Trader Joe's sells like the same Dubai dark chocolate bar for $1.99--and at least there, it comes sealed.

    Looking for a fast informal meal with friends (preferably with outdoor seating on a warm summer evening). Mama's Hummus fit the bill. Lots of free parking in the lot in front of the restaurant. First time there so we had lots of questions about the menu. Kimberly, working the counter, was incredibly welcoming and helpful. I went with the chicken shawarma plate ($18) and my wife went with the chicken kabob plate ($19). The chicken shawarma plate came with a large portion of chicken shawarma over white rice, a generous portion of hummus, a salad, garlic aioli, pickled onions, and some very spicy peppers. Everything was delish (except the spicy peppers which were not suitable for a gringo palate). The chicken kabob plate was essentially the same except it had juicy chicken kabob instead of shawarma (the better of the two dishes). Can't wait to come back to try some other menu items.

    The food portion is very small and price is really high for the amount of food you get. Chicken plate is 19.99 and has a lot of rice underneath the chicken. You put your plates away by yourself so can't say there is a lot of service. The restaurant is just like a deli.

    Up in Camarillo for some business and I was early and also hungry, so I popped on Yelp to find something to satiate my hunger pangs and to fulfill a recent craving for Mediteranean food. Mama's Hummus popped up and I was in the next parking lot over, so it was a match made in Heaven. Well, a match made in Yelp... The menu was on a large set of screens above the order counter and kitchen, so you had to stand there and figure out what you wanted. It would not be bad if it was like In-N-Out and there were 5 choices, but this was an extensive display of plates and sandwiches and bowls. OH MY! While I was trying to decipher the choices, a gentleman kept asking if I was ready to order and I had to respond, "getting there" several times. At this point I would have preferred a printed menu and taken a drink to a table to go over what I wanted to have for lunch. I wanted hummus, I wanted kafta, I wanted falafel, I wanted some Greek like salad. Maybe I wanted chicken shwarma, maybe lamb kabob? Crap, I wanted the whole menu! The guy behind the counter was kinda patient, but relentless on asking me if I was ready. I had at least four other people order in front of me since I was not ready. Fast forward 3 hours (ha, ha!) and I think I was ready to order and here it is: Beef Kafta Kabob Plate: Skewer of ground beef kneaded with chopped parsley, onions and spices, served with hummus, Mama's Salad, pickles, chili peppers, rice, and pita bread. Of course, along with me taking forever, I needed to be high maintenance and asked to substitute fries for the rice and said I would pay extra if needed. The guy taking my order (not the guy who asked to take my order 23 times, he had given up and walked away) said that it would be an extra charge for the fries even though I had said that was OK. The original order pressure guy, who I assume is owner or manager, butted in and said there would be no charge for the fries substitute. I think he just wanted me to move on! There was a steady flow of people coming in to order, to pick up pre-orders or GrubHub types picking up food for their clients. Not many people were staying to eat. It took a bit of time to get my order, since they were pretty busy with all of the orders. That was fine, I had plenty of time and had some work to do. I was happy to see them so busy, not only for their finanicial stablity, but because it seemed like A LOT of people liked this place. Good for Mama's! My name was called and I picked up my meal at the counter. Initial reaction was that it looked and smelled great. I was happy already and I had not tried a single thing on the plate. For starters I tried the pita and hummus. Fresh warm pita was used to scoop up the smooth, creamy hummus. Hummus is one of my favorite foods and Mama's Hummus nailed it. Very good. Go get it. Now, go now! On to the salad which was fresh, cold, crisp and not overwhelmed by dressing. A good follow up to the delicious hummus. The beef kafta kabobs were nicely cooked with a decent crust on the outside, but the inside was moist and a wonderful blend of spices. Yum. I really liked it. The rest of my meal was combos of the kafta, hummus, grilled jalapenos and salad, all piled on to the awesome pita. If I find myself in the area, I will go and try other entree such as the chicken shwarma or the tri-tip. The tri-tip is cooked on a vertical rotisserie similar to how gyro meat is cooked. I wish I had taken a picture of that. Looked like something I would like. Maybe you should try it. Maybe you should! Go. Eat Well. HAVE FUN!

    Some of the best shawarma I have ever had. I ordered the tri tip and my wife had the chicken. Both were cooked to utter perfection. Hummus was spot on as well. Best kept secret? The garlic sauce! Only knock was the pita was very stale.

    $30 vegan kabob plate.

    I love this place! I literally make it a point to grab it whenever I'm in the area. My go to is their grape leaves, fattoush salad, and spicy chicken shawarma. Never disappoints. The staff is always friendly, food is always fresh, the space is always clean. I love this place!

    Horrible food. Got the lamb kabob plate ($16) and it was horrible. Lamb was tougher than any other meat i've ever had. Never going back.
