This was my first time visiting this restaurant, and I really enjoyed the food along with my coworkers. Located one block from Little Tokyo / Arts District Station, there are many competing restaurants and dessert spots nearby. You order at the front then seat yourself. There can be a lunch rush because a long line formed after we had ordered. The ambience was casual but interestingly retro with an old television show playing in the background. It took around 20 minutes to get our food. There is self-serve water available with big cups. I ordered a remix bowl with beef and lamb ($15.50), which came with a variety of ingredients: lemon-herb tahini dressing, marinated garbanzos, harissa, cabbage slaw, feta, roasted corn, kalamata olives, tomatoes, cucumbers, and sumac. The bowl was filling, and I enjoyed the diverse mix of spice and flavor. Overall, the bowl was refreshing because of the rice, vegetables, and different sauces. The marinated garbanzos were crispy and a delightful detail to the bowl. I've never had these before, but they bore some similarity to croutons. The beef and lamb were thinly cut, but they still had an adequate portion size. I also tried some waffle-cut sweet potato fries. These were so delicious; I enjoyed the seasoning and light crisp. read more

We were around Little Tokyo and decided to eat here since it may be a "healthier" alternative. We ordered a Street Cart Doner Wrap (with mixed meat) and fries to share, and my bf ordered a salad. You pay at the cashier and then seat yourself. It wasn't too busy when we arrived, so service was very efficient! There were also plenty of seating available too, so it's a very nice, casual, quick-to-eat type of joint. So it didn't take too long for our entrees to arrive. The wrap definitely is enough for the both of us to share. We also had fries, which the fries were really good! They were very crispy and fragrant. The sauce that came with the fries and wrap pairs very nicely with it all. My bf also enjoyed his salad as well! So the food was great, although I feel like the restaurant is not as clean? It's generally tidy enough, but can be cleaner. I was also unsure about the condiments since they were no labels. They had a side of plates on the side they didn't look unused, but I didn't want to take any chances and maybe thought someone just left it there used lol. read more

Came here on a Tuesday afternoon with my dad and husband and it was the perfect place to eat, sit and chat. Service was excellent. Restaurant was clean and of course the food was delish! I ordered the Medi Bowl with Falafel. Super yummy and filling and great for vegans. My dad had the Original Gyro as that was why we chose to come here..he requested a gyro when we picked him up. He loved it and it was also easy for him to eat as he has some dental issues. My husband ordered the Street Wrap which he enjoyed. We also ordered a basket of fries to share which were crispy and flavorful. Loved that they were playing I Love Lucy on the tv. It was muted but me and my 88 year old dad enjoyed it. Definitely reminded me of when I was a kid. Parking can be tricky as it's pretty busy in this area but we parked at the mall next door. read more

Nice gem in the heart of little Tokyo. The vibrant interior and great music already give off a good vibe. But the reason to come back is the food!!! So excellent!! Everything was fresh and complemented each other so well. I got the wrap and was able to make it into two meals so extra great! The employees were all friendly and helpful, will absolutely be back for more! read more

I love that Spitz little Tokyo is still around after these years, especially since it's something different aside from Japanese food in the little Tokyo area. I came for happy hour (m-f 4-7 pm) and had the rose sangria. It was tart and refreshing. The pita strips which is basically fried pita bread and the house made hummus was delicious. The bartender who served me was friendly and helpful. I miss their fries and wraps, can't wait to come back. also the music selection, 2000-2005 pop punk rock made me feel like I was meant to sit and vibe there for this moment as a millennial trying to unwind at the ends of the week. read more

My wife LOVES Spitz so I'm familiar with the excellent food. Never been to this location before. Blasting music from my youth(TBS, Sum41, Blink, etc) I knew I was in the right spot. Ordered the Spitz gyro and the falafel & hummus as I waited for my little brother from the big brother big sister program. Food was excellent and filling. I love how they list the ingredients in their sauces which gave me peace of mind as someone who is deathly allergic to dairy. Service was great and provided free refills on my coke. They even have board games to play if interested. read more

Ordered through Postmates recently and it was decent. I ordered the Street Cart Doner Wrap since I was feeling something somewhat healthy lol. The wrap was filled with veggies and meat. The meat was somewhat dry and the seasoning was just ok. For the price, I was a bit disappointed with the wrap. I also ordered an extra chili sauce on the side for an extra kick which was pretty tasty. The food came neatly wrapped and stapled in a paper bag to prevent tampering. There were so many menu items via the app. The next time I'm craving salad, I would definitely give this place a try! I've dined in before and recall service being kind and helpful. The parking situation may be tricky since this is located in DTLA/Little Tokyo area. The place was neat and tidy. read more

My friend took me here for lunch and everything looked so good it was hard to order! We settled on a large portion of half and half fries, the doner salad with mixed meat, and the berliner bowl with quinoa. We also added two cups of beer. The portions are huge and I couldnt finish the salad I ordered but it was so flavorful, nothing was dry or overcooked. I would highly recommend this to friends and would come back as I left feeling full and satisfied. Service was amazing! read more

Good food, good drinks, nice spot! We stumbled upon this place by accident because we needed to use the bathroom. Nowhere had a bathroom, and this was the first place to let us use the restroom (cool points! Nowhere in LA lets you pee lol) We ended up grabbing some typical bar bites and a drink. The food was pretty good, service was nice, and the ambiance was everything. It was a good vibe, in a cool area. Luckily we found street parking nearby. There's both indoor and cute outdoor seating if you want a nice photo-op :) The design of the place is nice, and there are plenty of fun shops nearby. An ice cream shop next door. A modern plant and abstract shop across the street. Just a nice little bar in a fun area. No complaints! And thanks for letting us use the bathroom :) read more

I was recommend to try this place out while I stayed in the little Tokyo area, and it did not disappoint at all. I got one of their bowels I believe the remix bowl( I meant to ask for rice but never did so it has quinoa). The tahini sauce was delicious! The fries that I got as my side were a healthy portion and very fresh and tasted amazing. They had a few TVs with sports on and then also great music playing for a chill ambiance! I had plenty of time to decide and think about what I wanted and there was lemon water available self serve which I enjoyed. The lady who took my order was very polite as well. It's definitely a place I would visit again and recommend for others looking for some flavorful and fresh tasting food. read more

Spitz is excellent. I've only been twice to this location. My most recent visit wasn't the best... but the food was delicious just like the first time. The service is good, but apparently something was wrong in the ordering system, so everyone dining in was not getting their food... they fixed it but we waited like 45 minutes. In general, it does get packed (order online or get there early!). Other than that, it's good!! LOL read more

Came with a coworker and tried the Street Cart Doner Wrap ($14.25) with chicken as the protein this time. It was still very filling for this price. Now for the service... this is where they lost a star. My coworker's salad had a bug in it. When she brought it to an employee, he said "maybe it just flew in it." Then he said he'll look into it and asked if she wanted a new bowl, to which she declined. Another guy gave a refund but he took a while to do so. Very mixed feelings. Update on the refund- we got it. Hopefully this issue won't happen again. read more

I love this place. The food is on point: fresh and delicious but not "healthy" tasting. They've also got a well curated beer selection. Both the hazy and the west coast IPAs were great. I also like the vibe. Good music. Cozy interior. Feels like home. I also need to shout out Juan, who was working the bar on my most recent visit. He took the time to explain their beers, did a great job handling a diverse set of customers and let me know about their catering options, which we might just use. My place of work is just around the corner. Whenever I'm back in LA for work, Spitz will be my go-to for lunch, dinner, and drinks. read more

Love Spitz! The service is fantastic. We usually pick up to go but enjoy when we can sit and have a drink. The vegan wraps, Doner salad (no cheese or cream), sweet potato fries, lavash strips are my favorite. Great place to hang out or grab food to go read more

THIS PLACE IS AWE*BLEEPIN'*MAZING!!!!!! @ this point, I mean, I could be being a touch BIASED but... I live close by. The person pictured in this video, working, his name is "Juan" & there could never be 'JUAN TOO MANY' Any guey! Sure, such like ANY business, they've had their ups-their downs. But, look. I've BEEN coming here WELL-OFTEN; when I had cash flow, I've been here 2-3 X's a day, almost every day of the week!!!! Thru time, I've seen so many changes between clientele & staff. HowEVER! 1 way (or another by Blondie), 1 thing that has remained the same here for me, is the remaining & continuing AAAAMMMMAZING STAFF!!!! There's Juan, JAZZ (whom I believe is their LEADER) (there was SOCRATES, who is off to bigger & better things but, thru this PLACE, he was originally unsure abt becoming GM but, eventually, he powered thru it & ultimately learned to love & embrace & imo, became a GREAT GM!), JOLENE, BETH!, ISAAC, SAVANNAH, VICTOR, ERIC, JASON, DANNY, JOEL, NESTOR, & now, DOPE NEWCOMERS: Monica/Ree/Alex. What I see in ALL OF THEM? Look, coming from doing 22yrs of SBUX (me), they provide UNDENIABLE customer svc, personalities, warmth, protection, laughs, among other great things, here, in Little Tokyo-day in, night out. But... enough w/ the staff. SO! Alright-SPITZ has approximately 13 locations throughout the US. RIGHT! We're here for this particular location in DTLA Little Tokyo! So, THIS specific location, out of their other locs like EAGLEROCK (the original), Studio City, & Los Feliz, THIS 1 is THE ONLY location that is equipped w/ a FULLY-STOCKED BAR-beer, wine, cocktails, micheladas, & delicious sangrias! Not too long ago, they were trying to hype up their business by doing "Open-mic Karaoke Wednesdays", welcome to anyone who came in & had ordered a drink/food. It was a whole lot of fun! The FOOD? The drinks/alcohol/the drinks that Jolene CONSTANTLY intends to create for upcoming holidays-BEYOND ENJOYABLE! The food, omgosh-THE FOOD. Kinda like a Mediterranean vibe-they've got choice of proteins like beef + lamb (it's already mixed-can't get 1 or the other), chicken, & falafel (which, ISAAC, himself, makes from scratch!) You can order them in these DEEEEELICIOUS BOWLS w/ the choice of rice or quinoa. SO DELECTABLE. NOT a fan of having a BOWL-you can get it in a wrap or a salad! This place is VEGAN/GLUCOSE-FREE-DAIRY FREE-FRIENDLY! Their MOST-ordered item (of course, IMO) is their "STREET CART FRIES: "Our famous fries topped with garlic aioli, feta, onion, green pepper, tomato, olives, and pepperoncinis." I constantly hear ppl ordering this item They have an online app to order ahead of time w/ crazy 1st-time members to rack up rewards. Spitz Little Tokyo is located across from WOLF & CRANE & right next door to the new BUM*SAN ice cream shop. Whether it's for a nice lunch/dinner or are here to drink & have great conversations w/ the bartender staff & cool customers @ the bar, one is sure to enjoy the awesome atmosphere @ Spitz! read more

Make sure to double check your online order, if you're picking up, they screwed my order up.

After spending the morning walking around the city, my wife and I got hungry and ended up at Spitz in Little Tokyo. This place is so visually appealing thanks to the painted walls and neon signs that I've been wanting to check this place out for a while now. The menu here consists of wraps, bowls, salads, and French fries that make me want to physically turn into a potato. After I struggled for 15 seconds, I ordered the Street Car Doner wrap that consists of Garlic aioli, fried lavash chips, romaine, cabbage, tomato, onion, green pepper, cucumber, and tzatziki with an order of French fries to split between the two of us. The wrap itself was pretty darn big and tasted absolutely delicious. All the ingredients seemed to be fresh while the mixture of chicken, beef, and lamb were a top notch mixture. The French fries that we split were pretty dang good as well, being extra crispy and having a really great flavour. Overall, Spitz was a great place to go for lunch and definitely somewhere I see myself returning to in the future. The food was great, the atmosphere was fun, and the staff was friendly as well. Another highlight? This place has board games in the back so you can hang out a little after you eat and have some fun. read more

I've come here for happy hour before and ordered a 10$ cucumber margarita.. it was so refreshing & tasted just like cucumber 5/5. I came back for food and it was good. So the doner wrap was really flavorful with the extras (veggies/fries) but the meat lacked flavor & was a little dry. The sauce made up for it a little but I didn't want to just have to drench the wrap in sauce. The service is a bar feel, you wait in like to order & take a number and sit. I'd come again and try some different dishes. read more

I'm not sure how I have never reviewed this place, yet. Been coming here for some years now. It was one of my stops during my bar hopping days. It was nice that they had a full bar and while enjoying one of their craft cocktails I decided to order some food. After that I was hooked and it definitely became a place I would like to stop at and recommend to people. Their donner kabob wraps are so delicious! My most recent visit I decided to try something new. I had the medi bowl and although the bowl wasn't large like typical salads are, it was packed with flavor and lots of different ingredients. I would get it again the next time I visit. Well, I'll probably get a wrap. lol I know there are various locations of Spitz in the Los Angeles area and there is one more local to me, but if I need some Spitz with a full bar, Little Tokyo location is where its at. Parking: paid private lots, paid structures in surrounding areas, metered parking VERDICT: Rinse and repeat read more

On Sunday afternoon, the bartender/cashier gave my order to another customer. I saw him do it, because I was a little surprised that her order came out before mine even though I ordered first. He went off to do other things, then I saw them talking about her order. He took the food from her and proceeded to try to give it to me, after she already touched it. I can't believe anyone who works at a restaurant would do such a thing. I was grossed out, so I asked for a refund. He said he couldn't give me a refund and asked me to put my phone number on the receipt. It's now three days later, and the transaction posted to my credit card. I also sent an email to the company website. I haven't received a call or response to my email. I don't understand why he refused to give me a refund. Terrible customer service. I also tried calling today and they don't answer their phone. read more

We grabbed a bite here before going to MOCA Geffen monuments (highly recommended!!!) Nice casual, order at counter Mediterranean place. We loved our falafel bowls. My sister got doner mix with falafel, which had more fries than she would have like, but everything was yummy. I got a GF falafel bowl, excellent, would have liked even more cabbage. The crispy garbanzos were fabulous. Really good seasoning, even before the lemon herb tahini dressing, Harrisa and zhoug. K got gyros with side of falafel, another winner. Cool inside on a hot day, fun decorations and the best music! I want their Playlist from that day. read more

Awesome selection of beers and liquor. Some quality tequila lined up at the bar such as Lalo and Fortaleza. Plus more. Had the street cart wrap with extra meat. Awesome and enough to share. Their fries are cooked perfectly for a crisp on the outside and soft inside. The sauce they served with the fries was fire. We sat there and enjoyed our food while planning a trip back to sit at the bar and enjoyed our food some drinks in this great ambiance. read more

Nice to see a Spitz in downtown right by Little Tokyo. The food was good. The doner basket was very filling and perfectly filling. I was able to save half for dinner. Wish there was more seating but the inside is a little narrow and tight with seating. Not bad for to go. read more

Holy moly! Food was incredible! We had street cart fries. The gentleman who took our order suggested adding protein so we added the lamb! When I tell you, 10/10 100% recommend SO SO DELICIOUS OHHHH AND AND IT WAS A SUPER GOOD DEAL! $30 for the fries and an alcohol beverage and a fountain drink! Fed two very hungry ppl! The music was a vibe! The restrooms are clean! I am a super happy customer. Thanks for the great service and overall experience! read more

*Do not order from this location on delivery apps!* I used to love going to the Los Feliz location, so I thought I would order dinner for my household on Postmates. It cost $100 for 3 entrees and 4 sides, even after a $20 coupon. When the order arrived, we only received 2 entrees and 2 (incorrect) sides. The only sides that we received were the fries in our combos, which were supposed to be the street cart upgrades, but neither came with the upgrade. In addition, the fries were extremely cold and stale, despite only being ordered 15 minutes prior. The only correct items in the order were the 2 wraps. Only half of my family were able to eat from Spitz. I received $35 as a refund, and to reorder the same exact items it was going to cost $50 before taxes, fees, and tips. I am so disappointed with the quality control at this location and unfortunately will not be returning to Spitz, despite the fact that I used to love going there. Don't waste your time and money ordering from here. It will just result in a massive headache, lost money, and stale fries. read more

I was actually surprised at how good the food was here! I had never even heard of this place until one of my Actor friends told me about it... Will definitely be back. They have really unique flavors and a cool Spin on Mediterranean. Definitely a great place to take a meeting or a quick lunch. read more

A hidden gem in the little Tokyo area! I've only ever had the spitz fries and they are so good. The fries are seasoned super well and fried to a crisp. You can add protein for $3 extra but it really isn't needed. These fries are dressed up super well and the garlic aioli they put on it is just right! I usually always come by here to get the fries after having a drink. read more

The fries and pita strips were yummy, all the sauces were uniquely delicious! The hummus was so good.... My buddy and I debriefed our main plates, the food definitely tasted more fusion inspired then what one would call "authentic" The falafels were pretty solid; I was expecting a bit more flavor inside the wrap. I tried a bit of my buds bowl, it was refreshing, but a bit underwhelming. She mentioned that she usually eats all the food on her plate but wasn't able to finish everything this time. convenient spot if it's late and you're in the DTLA area, but I'd say you're better off looking somewhere else for falafel(if you want a certain taste) Host was a bit condescending 0 . 0 bathroom code is 2863. read more

This is a great spot for a quick, delicious, & filing lunch. Inside is colorful, service is quick, & make sure to grab their sauces from the condiment bar. 10/10 - The Donner Basket with Beef & Lamb: this was really a bit of everything & more; the meat tasted great, crispy garbanzos gave great crunchy texture, & the fried pita strips were addictive; falafels were the only miss as they were too cinnamony & dry. Having salad & fries made this filing but still refreshing. read more

I only did take away, so I can't really flesh this review out, but I liked their Mediterranean doner wrap. It was fresh, flavorful, and plus points for being so neatly wrapped that nothing spilled out (I feel like that's worth mentioning). My only issue is that on DoorDash, it said it came with zaatar but I didn't taste any:( I want to come back here with a friend because this place is a great vibe to it, and lots of music. read more

A little disappointed that they put cucumber in my bowl when I requested no cucumber. It really sucks that I had to waste them due to the lack of attention.

My advice is to check the bag to ensure u get what u ordered. read more

A decent standout Mediterranean joint in the heart of Little Tokyo worth checking out if Japanese food isn't what you're feeling while in the area. Spacious seating inside and out, with definitely a bar vibe with the TVs on in the background. Service is fairly quick and attentive, with the bartender quick to make recommendations for indecisive me on what would be good on a Sunday afternoon. There's lots of great locally crafted beers and booze on tap to match their diverse menu. The menu isn't what you'd typically expect for Mediterranean food. However, given that they're inspired by street food, it's a great spin on it with lots of variety and customization to match every taste. I ordered the street cart fries with mixed meat added on. Boy was it loaded! There's definitely a lot going on, and honestly sometimes the flavors were a tad overpowering. However, it was still a fantastic meal that was generously portioned with plenty leftover for later. Each bite was immediately hit with the garlic aioli and feta cheese, followed up by the crunchiness of the fries and richness of the mixed meat. The olives, peppers, tomatoes and onion were great in cutting through the many flavors and added a touch of lightness to an otherwise heavy meal. There's also a small condiment bar off to the side with a couple of sauces, as well as a self-serve water station. Overall, worth checking out for wanting to try something different! read more

The last time I had jury service around 2017 I came by to try their fries. I don't quite recall my experience then but I decided to try it again when I was yet again called for jury service. There was an optional meat add on, for which they had a beef and lamb, chicken, and falafel options. I went with the beef and lamb (I thought I could order just lamb but it was a combination). The fries were excellent- the right balance of crispy and fluffy. There was a side of some sort of feta (maybe the orange color was spicy?) and I also asked for extra sauce. They have a sidebar that has a green and red sauce, they were reminiscent of red and green salsa though the guy at the front said it was harissa and something I forgot, respectively. The red tasted like pico de gallo and green like chimichurri. The meat was decent, it did not have that big of an influence on my opinion. I prefer really juicy meats like al pastor but this didn't really fit the bill, but for $3 extra I think it was a fair price. Everything else including the (cotija?) cheese, onions, peppers, and sauces worked well together. One notable thing was the customer service from the front of house was impeccable. read more
