    This is one of my go to lunch place from time to time. I like it that it is healthy and there's tables inside. Everything is nice and clean. The servers that are helping to put your food together is wonderful. You can also order ahead of time online and pickup your food in the pickup shelf section. All in all, it is a nice place to have a quick lunch.

    Chicken bowl with lentil soup.
    Laura P.

    Love how you can customize your order (similar to Chipotle). The pomegranate chicken rice bowl was great and there are a lot of options for add-ins and sauces. All plates/bowls come with lentil soup on the side. The portion sizes are decent too!

    vegan protein plate
    Grace X.

    This was really good! I had the vegan protein plate which came with rice, falafel, eggplant, chickpeas, cauliflower, pickles, a tiny bit of salad, and hummus. Everything tasted delicious, my favorite part was probably the hummus. Menu has lots of vegan options and is very clearly labeled.

    Chicken Shawarma Rice Bowl with Fries
    Alisa B.

    Good lentil soup and fries :D I had a really great experience here! Big portions, solid quality ingredients, and it's convenient. I recommend the Chicken Shawarma Rice Bowl! Well seasoned and tender chicken. Definitely try the eggplant and cauliflower too. Sooooo good, especially with the Tzatziki, Hummus, and Garlic Spread! Staff here aren't the nicest... but I'll overlook it since they gave such genereous scoops of food. Thanks SAJJ!

    Steak Shawarma salad bowl with lentil soup
    Josh S.

    This place is best described as being like Chipotle for mediterranean food. You walk down assembly line and decide which sides / proteins you want in your order. I opted for the steak shawarma in a salad bowl and my wife ordered a similar salad bowl but opted for chicken. I wasn't the biggest fan of the seasoning on the shawarma, and preferred the chicken when I took a bite of the other bowl. But it's still super great. The portions are super big and I'm sure many people could turn a single bowl into 2 meals. They also add a small lentil soup on the side which is really nice. Overall, can't complain with the price / value of this place. Great spot for some filling mediterranean.

    Got a bowl with pretty much everything in it except for olives. This is like Chipotle but Mediterranean food. It was pretty good and obviously fast. Was quite filling since I finished the entire bowl. Came with lentil soup also.

    Rice bowl w/ falafel

    Came here for dinner yesterday and really enjoyed it! Sunday evening so there was no wait, staff were nice and filled a good amount of food. I got the chicken shawarma bowl and I really liked it, love that you can pack lots of toppings and get a lot of flavor. We also got falafel bowl and the pita bread and both were good, and we also have leftovers!! The lentil soup that comes with it is also really good. The strawberry lemonade and mint lemonade were also really yummy and refreshing. Good amount of seating as well and clean space.

    Silpa D.

    The chicken shawarma was perfectly seasoned and juicy, and the falafel was super crispy and fresh--just how it should be. Great quality, fast service, and everything tasted authentic and well-prepared. Definitely coming back!

    Mushy couscous
    Mai S.

    Came back here for second time and ordered chicken shawarma again, this time with turmeric rice and i like it much better than couscous as rice was fluffy. Also customer service was better as she was being helpful. I would come gain if I want to eat quick and healthy meal !

    Dana L.

    A chain where you can order things similar to how you would in Chipotle. This location was quite empty, so we were able to quickly order our food. Everything about the food was really fresh, delicious, and satisfying. Honestly nothing to complain about. They even give you lentil soup! It's such an easy and healthy meal that I can see myself coming back quite often.

    Best Mediterranean food I have had!!…read more And the staff was incredible!! D was the best host ever!!

    Social media strikes again…read more.. I came across a reel on IG featuring Iraklis. The food looked intriguing and scrumptious...in other words FIRE! I would not have known about this place if it wasn't for the reel. I'm also not familiar with Syrian and Lebanese cuisine. Thought I'd give it a shot. Not the biggest of venues, it a bit small on the inside, they have few benches and tables outside. Parking wasn't an issue, plenty of spaces in the parking lot. The staff was very helpful and informative. This is a fast casual spot with table service. They do bring the food to you, but you can help yourself to everything else afterwards, is: water, sauces, napkins etc. #SyrianEats: WRAP: ~ SHAWARMA: Damascus style CHICKEN - 5/5 Absolutely DELISH!! Love the garlic spread that came on the side. The wrap was already tasty enough, but somehow it was even tastier with the Garlic spread. Even the fries that came with it were spectacular! That drizzle pomegranate molasses... just DELISH!! This was one of the best wraps I had Stateside. Actually the best! PLATE: ~ MANSAF - 5/5 The Lamb shank was excellent as well! Tender fall of the bone with flavor galore, and the butter sauce was amazing as well...delish! The rice that came with the Lamb shank was OK. It was probably good, but the flavor profile didn't stand up to the rest of the food. I thought it could use more flavor, but that just me nitpicking... 4.5 ***** rounded up to 5***** for me This food here is amazing. I'll be back...

I paired my meal with a Nepal Ice Beer, which was refreshing and complemented the food perfectly. The highlight, without a doubt, was the Chicken Chilli.

I've traveled across four continents--Asia, Europe, North America, and Australia--and I can honestly say this is one of the best Chicken Chilli dishes I've ever had. The flavor balance and execution were simply outstanding. Unfortunately, I had to rush to catch my flight, so I couldn't stay as long as I wanted.

    Unique food truck in Bay Area! This isn't just a food joint but it's an experience!…read more Vegetarian reviewer: To start with, I am not usually a big fan of too many eggs on my plate, but I thoroughly enjoyed their innovative creations. They have interesting dishes with paneer and chicken as well. We ordered two dishes- Leela lasun keema - This dish was intriguing, with cheese, grated egg, and a rich, spicy gravy. The portion size was generous; a single person won't be able to finish it with just three breads. It was very filling, we took back home the leftover and enjoyed it later with some rotis. They have another version of this- "kachu" with runny eggs instead of grated eggs.. well thought option! Volcano egg biryani- The dish is as interesting as its name suggests. The base is an omelette, and the rice is flavorful with bell peppers, finely chopped veggies, and aromatic spices. The center is with a tomato-based curry. The cheese on the side was amazing, and I loved it. The spicy guava drink is super refreshing with a playful mix of spice, salt, sourness, and the sweetness of guava. I really enjoyed it! They have music playing and the place is lit, creating a total vibe for spending time in the evening on a lazy weekend/ after work, or post-workout. The food is pure indulgence and covered our protein requirements with eggs, along with some fat to burn off. Kinda guilt free. Also, they have games, garba events and other many interesting things going on at different times. Superb vibes, never disappoints! Conveniently located in Sunnyvale - easy to find parking. Ask the owners for their recommendations based on your preferences. They are very nice to talk to and are super passionate about this truck, having brought something they loved from New York to the Bay Area.

So, the charbroiled lamb chops were the only ones that I was able to eat since it was only salt and pepper. Overall, great price and friendly service.

What's challenging is if you're unfamiliar with Turkish breakfasts - the menu is very confusing as you're not quite sure what everything else. You order at the counter and pay and then go to the dining area to get your free tea. Unfortunately the guy behind the counter had no interest in explaining anything to us and it was apparent with his attitude - not the friendliest nor welcoming. But we decided to go for it and got the Nahita Special which basically had mostly everything. The things we loved: The cheese Borek, I wouldn't mind trying the spinach one if we come back here. Huge fan of their Pida bread which is unlimited - you can get more at the counter when you want more. OH and the Turkish tea is unlimited as well. unfortunately I am not familiar with the best way to prepare or get my own Turkish tea? They had some made and some you got from the machine... tons of sugar cubes... Will stick with ordering coffee next time. We also loved the different cheeses paired with different breads, honey and that homemade jam!! SO GOOD... you can make up any tasty bite you want which I think is the nice thing about the turkish breakfast - you create your own bite each and everytime!! It's fun to try different combinations but I will say I love the salty and sweet combo so either feta cheese with jam or honey on the different breads was my favorite bite. What I didn't care for was the Shaksuka - I've had this dish before at other places and usually it's more flavorful with more eggs - this was bland runny eggs in a dish. Not my favorite and I wouldn't choose this again. And reading some other reviews the eggs with sausage didn't sound like a hit either so am thinking maybe we skip getting any egg dishes from here. I think now that I know more about the dishes I can maybe be more selective but overall it's not inexpensive but worth trying at least once.

It did have a lot of sugar, but it was pretty similar flavor-wise to Indian chai (sans milk), so it paired very well with our order. We ordered the chicken suqaar and the beef wrap. We opted for the chapati (sabaayad in Somali) with the chicken suqaar, but would love to try their rice or their version of injera during our next visit! The menu at first glance looks kinda confusing since they have Lunch in big letters on one side with a ton of their dishes and Dinner on the other side with the remainder of the dishes, making it seem like a few items are available during this time... but the Lunch portion just states that it comes with a side of rice, pasta, chapati, or injera (which is the same as Dinner...) so kind of an interesting stylistic choice there, but this is to say that everything on the menu is available the whole time they're open. The meals were so flavorful- the chicken suqaar had a ton of onions, carrots, chicken, green-bean like veggie, and spices, and was served with a green sauce that had kind of a habanero or jalapeno taste to it. The beef wrap was huge and I only ate half of one for dinner- it was flavored so well and the beef was cooked perfectly. This came with a side of the green sauce and a white sauce. I'd love to return and try their injera with chicken, kay kay chicken, beef suqaar or beef steak, and their sambusas! I saw some on another diner's plate and it looked sizable and filling. Jubba is located right next to a VTA light rail and an apartment complex so there's decent foot traffic, but overall, a wonderful place to try and eat!
