    Chicken Shawarma Plate

    My favorite shawarma spot. Fries are so good here. Food is very fresh. They have tables but this location is quite small so I recommend taking it to go.

    Lunch special again, God, I love this place

    Food is fantastic. Service is out of this world. The ambience. It is what it is but you gotta love it and if it's a lot of it doesn't matter it. It's still great Food.

    One of my favorite spots when I want something comforting yet healthy. I always go for the plate cause I think it's perfectly shareable with someone else. Me and my husband eat a lot and we always end up so full and satisfied! From the hummus to the meat, every little element of the plate is perfectly made and seasoned. These two photos are equivalent to one chicken plate. The line and wait can be long, I'm not gonna lie, but it's totally worth it, and the line just reinforces that the food you are getting in exchange is worth the wait. Everything comes fresh, warm, the servers are super friendly and efficient. A lot of older people go there and the young servers are patiently explaining everything to them. Highly highly recommend.

    First of all... Tel Aviv Grill take my money! You have can have it for this amazing food. I have been driving by this place for two years and never went in because I saw the prices online for Shawarma plate and thought it was a little steep. Well.. I did not know all of the food that you get! It's enough food for me to eat for two lunches! And the service.. AMAZING! I asked them to give me everything because it was my first time there and I didn't want to build my plate, I just wanted a little bit of everything and boy did they give me a little bit of everything! When they handed over the bag, I was shocked at how heavy it was, filled with bread, french fries eggplant, and my chicken Shawarma plate and tons of sauces. And the spicy orange sauce, I have no idea what it is, but it is addictive and delicious. I got home and put the french fries in a dish and put the toppings on top and it was amazing, I'm going to save the pita and the rest of the food for later. Highly recommend! Chicken was bomb and I can't wait to go back.

    The eggplant was to die for

    I absolutely love the food here--it's always delicious. However, today I ordered the chicken…read moreshawarma wrap during the buy-one-get-one-free promotion, and the free wrap was extremely disappointing. It was mostly pita bread with very little chicken inside. After just a couple of bites, it was practically flat because there was barely any filling. It honestly felt like I paid for air. If you're going to offer a promotion, the quality and portion size should be consistent with the regular item. The food is fantastic, which is why this experience was so disappointing. I hope this was just an isolated incident and not how promotional orders are normally prepared.

Killer Kabab (fast food mediterranean) has two locations, with the other being in the Sawtelle area near West LA. There are multiple Kabab shops near the hotel that we were staying, so chose the closest one. It wasn't too busy inside, with plenty of seating so placed our order and paid through the kiosk. The food took a bit of time to come out, delivered to our table. No soda fountain, so got a can of soda ($1.99) which you pick up yourself from the nearby bev fridge. We shared a Mix Grill plate ($21.95), consisting of a variety of things, all of which we enjoyed. The bed of tumeric rice was well cooked. The beef fillet, chicken breast chunks, and the beef kofta were all excellent: very tender, well seasoned, and well grilled. A few grilled vegetables were added, along with a really good plain hummus and pita braed. It also came with two side dips/pastes: a really good garlic paste that went great with the grilled beef and a yellow 'buttery' sauce that was great with the chicken. It also came with a small side salad, and some really tart pepperoncini. All of this added to a good light(er) meal, mixing various tastes and textures really well.

I've also catered from Felafel Queen, they out together some great trays. You get a lot of food so you can order for fewer people than you're actually feeding. Very nice service too.

    Well, to start off, I must admit I drove by this place about 10 times before I finally went in. All…read morethose times, I never saw people inside. Which I understand why. I finally went in today and sadly, was not only disappointed, my fantasy of Falafel King was destroyed forever. I know Benito used to work for Falafel King, but this place is nothing like it. The service was horrible. The guy behind the little counter was not nice at all. In fact he was rude. And didn't like if you asked him questions. But that aside, sitting in this little tiny restaurant was not a good feeling. We were the only ones there. They have a seating area outside, I'm guessing for overflow - yet, the table and chairs were right there in the middle of the restaurant. Piled up. They didn't even bother to take it outside. Put all that aside - we get to the food. One of the best things Falafel King has were the "chips", which were battered slices of potatoes that were deep fried. These were slices of potato, they were potato chips. Thin. No "meat" on them, if you know what I mean. And sadly, they were fried either early this morning or last night. Terrible, cold, hard, no taste - not even salt. We move on the falafel - which tasted good. The taste of the falafel itself was good, but the oil dripping down my hand an face was not. I blame that on the oil not being hot enough when he put the falafel into the oil. Next, the actual shwarma is not really shwarma (like you all know it). There was no revolving slab of meat where the fat melts into the meat and makes it so so special. No. This was a little baggy of already cooked meat with no spices on it thrown on the plancha and heated up. Hard and tasteless. Very disappointing. I picked it out of my pita and ate the salad with tehina and spicy eggplant (which WAS tasty). The pita is also a thin hard pita - not the nice fluffy type. I didn't finish my food, and my friend didn't finish the food, as you can see in the pictures. Sorry to give it a 1 - but to say you have ANY connection to "Falafel King" is a disgrace. Sorry if I sound brutal. I tell it like it is.

I hunted a bit before tracking down a spot and paying the meter. I have not been to Dune before, but the value of the lunch special along with the promise of a fried chicken shawarma, coupled with unexpected free time, sounded like a promising moment to stop by. Walked up to the window and after no acknowledgement, I peaked inside the door and asked whether I place an order at the counter or wait to be seated. When I tell you the jarring elder Gen Z stare and incredibly unfriendly direction to sit on the bench and wait my turn (in the literal sense that I was told to sit on the bench and wait my turn. There was only a party of 2 seated at the bench and no line to speak of) made me regret coming out to eat entirely. I'm not lying when I say I thought about leaving immediately and driving home in my air conditioned car instead of sitting on a hot bench in nearly 100 degree weather with no acknowledgement of party size, no offer for a drink or water while I wait, and just existing in my bizarre humiliation ritual for having asked what the procedure is here for any kind of recognition of my interest in dining or simply existing. And yes, after sitting down I saw there is a small low contrast sign on a post stating to sit on the bench and wait, but it is positioned parallel to the counter window and only when turning away from the glass toward the seating area was it placed in a way that I would see it. Not very useful for someone who is walking up or down the sidewalk as it's not visible. I held my breath for about 10 minutes before being asked my party size (one) and seated at a shaded table. I regretted my choice to dine out the entire wait time for the table, while ordering and then being required to pay upfront before my meal was even presented to me, while seated awaiting my order, while my food (loaded fries, fried chicken shawarma, date shake and an added unsweetened iced green mint tea) was dumped at once on the table in front of me, while eating feeling humiliated for existing inside human skin, and again when having to walk to the window and ask for a to-go box. I felt like a massive inconvenience for the staff and fully regretted bothering them every step of the way for normal things like a Dine LA menu which was not initially offered, adding an iced tea to my order, existing in a metal folding chair and generally taking up space. I don't like being treated like a turd by people, and certainly don't want to be treated this way when I'm paying for a service. But after the initial flubbed interactions, demanding payment with tip upfront before receiving any kind of service was rendered, and then dumping my food at the table without ceremony, it's truly no wonder why the LA restaurant scene is dying. Between poorly trained staff, rising costs in rent and utilities, the outrageous cost of staffing and the fact that eating at a restaurant is completely unnecessary when cutting household expenses, restaurants are disappearing left and right. Some of the foods I still dream about are lost forever to closure after closure. Customers being treated like they're inconsequential isn't the only reason people like me usually choose to dine at home, and it's not the only reason restaurants are disappearing. But it's one of the only controllable elements in a world of runaway hospitality expenses. Customers deserve even a modicum of respect if restaurants are going to survive. $48 for the meal including tax and tip. More than enough food for lunch, I took home half. Loaded steak fries / wish they were served with a whipped feta or dipping sauce instead of ketchup but they're good. Generous portion of steak. 9/10 Fried chicken shawarma / fun idea, execution made it difficult to pick up to eat. Serving in a metal basket made it impossible to cut in half since there was not a solid surface to cut against. Flavor is yummy, wish those middle eastern flavors were more prominent in the batter but the chicken is extra crispy. Enjoyable. 8/10 Date shake / luxurious, creamy, flavorful. No notes. 10/10 Unsweetened green mint iced tea / overpriced, underdelivered. I'd skip it unless you're parched. 5/10 **written without the assistance of AI**
