    This place is a gem inside the Glendale Galleria. They have good food, good service. Staff were efficient. Very patient with the needs of their patrons. People come and go, busy area, but they manage. Servers give ur food with a smiLe, giving all to your requests, plates utensils, cup for water and so on. Everytime, i visit the mall, i always have my food here. Meat was well prepared, and portions are shareable . Been to other kabob place in the area, including the well known ones, but they have this distinct flavor in their meats. I always end up going to this place, no matter how busy.

    I've been going to Massis Kabob at The Glendale Galleria for as long as I can remember. Not surprising, I just found out that this location has been there since 1976. I mean, if there's a constant in The Glendale Galleria Food Court, it's definitely Massis. (Panda Express & Hot Dog on a Stick are givens since they're mall standards all around the area). The great thing is that you're getting real, very minimally processed food that you can see cooked right in front of you. FOOD: #20 - Chicken Kabob & Beef Koubideh ($18.95 + tax) - 8.7 / 10 A really great choice if you want a "sampler" of what they have to offer. It's a pretty safe choice (who doesn't like chicken & beef? The generously sizable pieces of chicken breast are always, juicy & tender. Grilling over an open spitfire really allows the natural juices to come through. The beef koubideh is like eating tender piece of hamburger meat in the shape of a long sausage link. All served on a generous bed of basmati rice. The single roasted tomato & roasted jalapeño pepper are the perfect accompaniments. This meal comes with a choice of side. I always opt for their hummus because it's perfect for dipping the accompanying pieces of warm pita bread. I highly recommend downloading their app so that you can build-up rewards. (100 Rewards Points get you $5 off. $1 spent = 1 Rewards Point). One thing that I also like about this place is that you can be notified via text that your order is ready - a nice little perk if you don't want to hover around the pick-up area like an annoying vulture (let the staff do their thing), or if you'd like to sit down / check-out other food court spots while waiting.

    #12B Persian Koubideh Chicken

    I tried out this Mediterranean/Middle Eastern food spot at the Glendale Galleria and the quality is what you'd expect from a mall food court. I ordered the Persian Koubideh Chicken plate and it was decent, but could've been better. The Chicken Koubideh was standard, but felt and tasted like something from a frozen meal packet, not freshly cooked even though it looked like the meats were being freshly cooked. The rice to meat ratio was a lot which was common with these types of places. However, the rice was a bit dry. The tomato and pepper were cooked perfectly, so no complaints there. Finally, the cucumber salad was good and provided a fresh and crunchy element to the meal. I do wish that there was some sort of complimentary creamy sauce to pair with the meal since it was overall dry. They did give me some hot sauce upon request which helped, but a creamy sauce would've been better. The food was priced petty good and with tax it was about $15 which wasn't bad compared to the amount of food you get. However, I wish there was more meat. The staff were pretty nice and collected despite a heavy influx of orders. Overall, the experience here could've been better. If I were to visit this food court again, I would opt for other choices.

    I got the Steak and rice plate. It was very fresh and filling! I appreciated the quickness and great service! The meat tasted really good with a side of hummus and the sides are big so you should get a small! The pita bread was solid but would've preferred pita chips! Would go back for sure! Decently priced as well!

    It's alright. I had the beef and lamb and honestly it wasn't very well spiced. A bit bland. The cooking was fine but I would have preferred more seasonings. The rice was tasty and I did really like the Shirazi salad that comes with it. But overall I wasn't too impressed.

    First time trying this in Glendale but I've had it before at another location. Always delicious everywhere I've tried them. My favorite is the chicken kabob with rice, hummus, mixed salad. I definitely recommend if you haven't tried! The service is good. The ambiance is fast food style, You order and wait to pick it up. It's located inside the galleria in the food court area. There are places to sit down and eat.

    I really love Mediterranean food. It's very delicious. The meat, ground beef, and vegetables are always fresh. It smells amazing. The portion is large, and the price is very affordable, only 16 dollars for a big plate. I highly recommend it to everyone.

    everything was perfect The food is very tasty, fresh, the service is excellent and very friendly. I really like coming here and come often.

    A Big Bright Beautiful and CLEAN location in the heart of Downtown Glendale, Ca. State of the Art facility. A lot of Menu Choices. Super Fast Service. Very attentive floor staff. The place exudes Quality with a Minimalist touch. The Food is the Star! Absolutely delicious and natural tasting, not a lot of Salt. The setting is Gorgeous to compliment the Food and the experience. Bravo! Well Done. I will be Back!!!

    Well I had to stop by the Glendale Galleria to drop off something at a friend's s store. And thought I'd rather get some food before I had to sit in an hour of traffic on way home. How about some Persian food. Walk up to the counter where there are at least six people standing around, not serving, not plating. Just sort of hanging. Well are you going to help me? Wait for even a hello. Was about to go somewhere else when finally they ask for my order. I should have taken that as a sign. Because the food was also very mid. Considering that this is the valley where there are plenty of excellent Persian restaurants this place should have been on point but it was not and I will not be coming back

    i came here recently because i was in the area, and wanted to try middle eastern food. i ordered…read morethe hafle beruti, which was delicious. the service was great, and Negar R was super friendly and helpful. i would come back again just for the great service

    We consistently order catering at Carousel Restaurant as our go to place when we have friends and…read morefamily over but we decided to go to a dinner date last night and were truly blown away. Our waiter, Amen was fabulous. We wanted to try new appetizers, entrees and drinks so his suggestions were wonderful. The service he provided was perfect and we'll definitely be back to see him soon. The combo kabob platter with an upgrade of the filet was absolutely delicious. It's the next night that I'm writing this review but I'm still thinking of the tender meat and when I can go back to have it again. I always highly recommend their bulgur pilaf they do it so well. We also had the chicken shawarma platter. Each of these comes with a choice of a salad or hummus so we'll both got their fattoush salad because it's impeccable. And also ordered their jalapeño salad (it may be off of the menu but they still have it available) as well as their cheese borags. The pomegranate margarita was also amazing. Before I end my review I'd like to mention the beautiful renovation that has taken place since I've last been there. Not only have they spent a lot of money but the design was superb. It's super classy and it fit our date night perfectly. Thank you for having consistency and great quality food. See you soon!
