    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.

    Ordered the fries, tri-tip wrap, and Mama salad for about $35. On top of that, I was charged over $2 for an extra side of white sauce, which felt excessive. The tri-tip was overcooked and burnt, giving the meat an off flavor. The wrap itself was rubbery and not enjoyable to eat. The fries were good, and the Mama salad had decent flavor, but those positives weren't enough to make up for the disappointing main dish. For the price, I expected much better quality and portion value. Unfortunately, I can't recommend this spot based on my experience.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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!

    Very clean establishment , hot food , quality food is great and Abby that works up front is great ! Very kind and a bring personality she was very nice to everyone that walked in and welcoming . I highly recommend this place

    Lilian C.

    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.

    Chicken Shawarma Plate
    James J.

    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.

    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!

    One of my favorite places for a great meal. My order every time : Chicken kabob plate makes me happy every time! Everything about it is superb . Especially with their garlic butter, drooooooooool! It's enough for me to share with my little one but extra filling if I devour it myself .

    $30 vegan kabob plate.

The upgrade came with a free drink and the guys threw in another drink at no charge. I also added their spanakopita and the baklava at the end. The portions were huge and even 2 adults and 2 kids couldn't finish everything. The Lamb gyro wrap was delicious, topped with multiple sauces and veggies. The lamb was just brought out and tasted very fresh, juicy, savory and delicious. The french fries was very yummy and the spanakopita was super crispy on the outside and very soft on the inside. The baked spinach filling tasted superb. To finish out our huge meal, the baklava did the trick. It was also super fresh, pretty hot temperature-wise and the nutty filling tasted very yummy. The spot itself is spacious, has many tables of a cool light-blue color. The customer service was excellent. The guys working there went above and beyond to make sure my family was satisfied. Great spot and no wonder it's ranked very high on Yelp. Well deserved! We'll be back for more!

I've…read morebeen to this plaza many times I've been to all the stores next to it and used to come here when it used to to be another business. To be totally honest, I was a little bit intimidated by how the process works. But I assume caught on that. It was almost like a chipotle kind of style place. I decided to go with a bowl. I was able to choose between three types of different bases, and I went with the basmati rice and the couscous was able to choose a couple of salad options as well. Luckily, we were able to mix and match since I can never make a decision on getting All three types of greens that they have. Then moved over to the hummus section and I was able to get the three most popular hummus flavors, which I actually don't remember what I got. I know one of them was an olive flavored one and another one was a little more spicy. Then over to the protein side of things, you can mix up to two different choices, and some of the other options there is an upgrade fee. Then removed over to the toppings and these are all unlimited and so I was able to get feta cheese, tomatoes, olives, purple cabbage, everything was so endless and amazing At the very end, you're able to choose two different kind of sauces and at the very end, my bowl was actually pretty heavy in weight but most importantly it was very delicious Thank you to the team member here that was very helpful and walked me through the process. I think I might've been too overwhelmed. Otherwise I might've just opted for the burger which I may still have to try next time. The sweet potato fries also look very good and I will have to try those next time for sure. There's a ton of parking spots right outside. I can't get a little bit busy here so she'll be so many different food options but generally, I haven't really had an issue with finding a spot.
