    Fattoush salad was fresh crisp and delicious, dressing was light and lively.
    Steve S.

    Really enjoyed my dinner at Rosine's. Haven't been there for a while. We had the fattoush salad and the lamb kebab. The fattoush was perfect, fresh and crisp in every bite. The lamb was ok but we would have preferred not having essences of rosemary. The service was GREAT,Chris made sure every request was delivered quick and with a smile, the ambiance was delightful, dimly lit and trendy. Will definitely be back.

    We finally decided to try this place and it was great. The place is packed but spacious. We got a seat pretty quick for coming in at 6pm. The food quality is awesome. We tried the garlic butter with the naan which is complementary and the garlic butter was good 10/10. We got the wild calamari and quantity was apt and great quality 10/10 no fishy taste. Then we ordered the ultimate kebab that serves two people and with beef, chicken, lamb , and something else with sides of mashed potato and pasta salad 10/10. Everything was so good and We will definitely be back again for dinner.

    Waking from a drunken stupor and realizing I had already started off my day late, since waking up before noon was a biological impossibility, I started the painful process of getting ready. I had agreed to meet family friends for lunch, or was it a group of friends I hadn't seen in a long time or was it that I hadn't seen them since last night? It was all a blur as were the usual pleasantries when I arrived at the restaurant. As I sat in my seat and wiped away the lost sleep from my eyes, I smelled something in the air as there was a slight mist of smoke in the restaurant. It was tenderloin kebabs, lamb shanks, roiteserie chicken accented by the smell of fresh tabbouleh being eaten by the table next to us. As I processed these smells the waiter approached me, asking what I would have to drink. "Is Bloody Mary on the menu?" I asked. And like an angel he said yes. Well bye bye hangover, hello shwarma! With the rejuvenation of the Bloody Mary I suddenly recognized the people at my table. Laughter began to echo from the table between bites of kebabs and hummus filled pitas. Worth a visit and maybe worth the stay. Stay curious my friends.

    Rosines is my favorite restaurant and has been for years. Every single thing on their menu is amazing and they provide excellent service. This family owned restaurant is a staple in the community and I cannot recommend enough if you've never been (or even if you have)! My go to order: Caesar salad with steak skewer, side of rice, orange blossom lemonade (sometimes with alcohol sometimes without) Their garlic sauce is amazing and they always put love and quality first. Looking for a wine pairing? Their selection is incredible. In restaurant or take away this restaurant does it all!!

    Our women's league President treated us board members to an end of year thank you dinner catered by this establishment. Big compliments and kudos as we feasted on grilled chicken kabobs, ratatouille, Rosine's salad with lemon vinaigrette, hummus and pita, and rice pilav. I came back for seconds! This is definitely refreshing from the chain Mediterranean restaurants like Panini Kabob, Luna Grill and Doner G. Their extensive menu entices me to check out their restaurant for choosing more good eats!

    Glorious menu alert! I want everything! Today we exercised a tiny bit of restraint... barely.

    Rosine's Mediterranean Cafe is truly one of those places that gets everything right. We came here for our New Year's Eve dinner with family, and from the moment you walk in, it already feels special! The lighting is beautiful, the tables, the flooring, the entire space is elegant and warm. The bar is stunning, and as soon as you enter there was a beautifully decorated Christmas tree with twinkle lights that instantly set the mood. After being seated, there was another gorgeous Christmas tree in the back, and even the restrooms are beautiful. Every detail feels intentional and thoughtfully done. We were greeted right away with a cheerful Happy New Year, which immediately made us feel welcome and made it such a wonderful way to ring in the new year. The food is always amazing here, and this visit was no exception. I had the fattoush salad with a tenderloin kebab skewer added, and it was incredible. Everything tastes so fresh and real. You can truly tell that everything is made from scratch using quality ingredients. No shortcuts, just clean, authentic flavors that speak for themselves. The drinks were phenomenal. Niko was our waiter and he was absolutely perfect. Friendly, attentive, and with such a great personality! Everything a waiter is supposed to do, he does effortlessly, and he truly elevated our experience. Ryan was our bartender and made what is hands down the best Sidecar I have ever had, and that is my favorite drink of all time. We finished with dessert and an espresso martini, and WOW! It was so refined and delicious! You can tell the espresso is fresh and that everything behind the bar is made with care. Nothing tastes artificial. Everything tastes pure and intentional. We have been coming to Rosine's for special occasions for years, and I cannot believe I never wrote a review before. Not a chain, not overdone, just consistently amazing food, drinks, service, and atmosphere. If you are looking for a beautiful restaurant with exceptional Mediterranean food and top tier hospitality, this is it! We will absolutely keep coming back.

    Is this halal?

    I just called and asked them over the phone. They said it is not Halal.

    I see it says Mediterranean, but is this food Arab/Lebanese ? This would technically not make it Mediterranean right ? Just a question because I only like Persian rice and need to know what kind of food this is

    Armenian. It is amazing

    Do they have any delivery options?

    Don't see it

    Anyone know if they are still open for pick up with the covid stuff going on? Thanks.

    Yes! They are open for pickup and curbside takeout!:)

    Do they have a Cork fee?

    Yes

    What are the weekend lunch hours?

    12-10 Saturday 12-9 Sunday

    Is the meat served here halal?

    Probably not- they are Armenian (christian)

The beef shawarma was juicy and seasoned really well, and watching the shawarma spinning while they prepare everything was such a nice touch. The kafta was also delicious. Freez mix drinks so refreshing from Cyprus. And the pita was so soft and fresh -- definitely worth getting with your meal. Creps with nutella were perfect deser. The interior very traditional Lebanese. Taboleuh salad I highly recommend to try. Overall, great Mediterranean food, good portions, and lots of flavor. I'll definitely be coming back to try more from the menu!

It's only about 7 minutes from the parks, making it the perfect lunch or dinner spot if you're craving something flavorful that won't leave you feeling heavy. Everything we ordered was incredibly fresh and full of flavor. The spinach pastry was hands down my favorite, perfectly flaky with a delicious savory filling. The potato pastry was a close second and just as satisfying. If you visit, don't skip the pastries! We also tried the steak and chicken kebab combo plate, and both were cooked perfectly. The chicken was especially tender, juicy, and seasoned beautifully. You can actually watch the meat being cooked fresh in the back, which made the whole experience feel even more authentic. I ordered the veggie plate with falafel, baba ganoush, tabbouleh, hummus, and tahini sauce, and every single item was delicious. The falafel really stood out. It had a perfectly seasoned, crispy exterior with a soft, flavorful center. Dipping it into the baba ganoush, hummus, and tahini made every bite even better. One of my favorite things was that the meal was incredibly satisfying without feeling greasy or overly heavy. It was fresh, filling, and packed with flavor, but I still felt great afterward. The staff was warm, welcoming, and genuinely friendly, and the service was impressively fast. They also have a great selection of Mediterranean spices if you want to bring some of those incredible flavors home. Huge compliments to the chef and the entire team. Between the fresh ingredients, authentic flavors, generous portions, and excellent service, Zait Zataar has definitely earned a spot on my list of favorite Mediterranean restaurants. I'll absolutely be coming back!

But the "Catch Feelings" Chicken Wrap at Kareem's? It genuinely needs a emotional warning label. I ordered it thinking I was just grabbing a quick bite on the go. Big mistake. Huge. Now I'm driving down Brookhurst having a full-blown existential crisis because a wrap has better structural integrity and emotional depth than most people I've dated. First off, whoever is back there assembling these wraps isn't just making food; they are practicing architectural geometry. Most spots toss your veggies in like they're launching confetti at a parade, leaving you with one bite of pure lettuce and another of pure existential dread. Not Kareem's. Every single bite is a masterclass in balance: vibrant, bright, colorful veggies that actually crunch, perfectly seasoned and juicy protein, and a sauce so ridiculously good I'm convinced it's strictly classified under international law. It's colorful, it's mouth-watering, and yes, I absolutely caught feelings. I am now in a committed relationship with a pita-wrapped masterpiece. And can we talk about the hummus? Smooth as a smooth-talking salesperson, richer than a crypto influencer, and paired with proteins that are cooked with actual respect. If you are anywhere near 1208 S Brookhurst St, do yourself a favor and stop by. Just be prepared: you will leave addicted, you will crave it at 2 AM on a Tuesday, and you will never look at a standard wrap the same way again. 10/10, no notes, sending Kareem's my therapist bills.

The ingredients in the bowl were quite fresh though. I also had a side of garlic and wow the garlic made is veryyyy flavorful, including the hummus. I thought it was pretty good! The pita chips were also very nice as they were definitely very crispy, although, not as good if you save it as leftover, but still not bad. We also had a few pieces of falafels on the side, which they were surprisingly pretty good! It was not as fried dense ball as I thought it would be, which it actually made me enjoy or appreciate falafels more. I would definitely try the falafel instead of the chicken next time in my bowl.
