They are known for their eggplant kebab. It stands out because it's tasty, juicy, and not dry. Their meat is also very juicy. We also were addicted with the sauce that we had to ask for it three times. The restaurant was spacious and had a really nice aesthetic in the bathroom. I'll definitely be back when I'm in the area.

Amazing food. Prob the best seasoned lulu kabob I've ever had. Only downfall is the rice portion is…read morea little disappointing. Rice is such a cheap filler I don't think it would hurt to give the general amount of rice that I am personally used to from other middle eastern restaurants.

Well, today marked my first visit to this restaurant. We had been next-door ordering food from…read moreanother restaurant, but I decided to try their wings and pizza. I compared them to other places, and I must say, they were hands-down the best. The flavors were authentic, the food was clean and unblemished, and the portions were generous. The owner was incredibly generous and offered to give us the food back if we didn't like it. I was so impressed with the quality of the food that I decided to pay for it myself. The staff was kind and courteous, and the atmosphere was educational. Some of the pictures on the wall were beautiful, and the place was clean and well-maintained. I really appreciate these things in today's society. Overall, I had a great experience at this restaurant. The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and the atmosphere was pleasant. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great meal. I also had lemonade, which was just outstanding not too sweet not too tired just right.

For this visit, we tried an eggplant style zaatar "pizza", the chicken shawarma wrap, a falafel wrap, and baklava. The pizza was a delicately thin but fluffy treat with small crispy chunks of eggplant and a thin layer of juicy meat hugging the pita-like bread. The zaatar seasoning was a nice balance of nutty and zesty stop the savory goodness. For the wraps, the star was very clearly the chicken shawarma wrap. With fluffy pita wrap that was just the right thickness filled to the brim eith incredibly tender chicken, pickles, and a lovely soft fried potato that gave additional body and texture to the wrap. And the garlic sauce smeared within is fantastic, with a nice creamy consistency. This was perfection. Even the baklava and a really rich but pleasant sweetness to it with plenty of pistachio embedded between the layers of phyllo. This is nearly a two hour drive for us, but I would try to find another reason to make the drive. Zaatar N More is really exceptional and worth a try!

I order from Lemon Zest at least twice a week for lunch, and they never disappoint. Whether I get…read moreone of their plates or a wrap, the food is always fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. The BBQ plate is outstanding--the meat is perfectly seasoned, incredibly juicy, and packed with flavor in every bite. You can tell they take pride in the quality of their food. Their wraps are just as impressive. They're loaded with ingredients, bursting with flavor, and the portions are huge. One wrap is more than enough to leave you full and satisfied. Consistently great food, generous portions, and excellent quality keep me coming back week after week. Lemon Zest has easily become one of my favorite lunch spots. Highly recommended!

Omg! I cannot believe I have never tried this place. I have always seen it when I drive on Reseda…read morebut never gave it a try. The parking situation is tricky if the lot is full because the lot is super narrow and if the restaurant is full you won't find parking in their lot. Their staff is sweet and helpful. I really enjoyed their food! For the amount you pay, you really get a lot of food which is important to consider in this economy. I ended up getting a combo plate of chicken and beef kabob. It was super good! I also really enjoyed their hummus as an appetizer. Overall will definitely be coming back and would recommend this place!

Been to Sadaf several times, and every time, it is excellent. Ambiance is beautiful and clean…read more Food - I think their chicken kabob is the best I've had in LA. It is better than their beef koobideh and barg, though those are still good. I have had better beef koobideh at other restaurants like Raffis or Shekarchi. Their bread is so fresh and is an elevated experience compared to the usual lavash bread that restaurants give. My friends had the salmon and they really liked it. The maast o khiar is really good too. The service is excellent - all the food came out quickly and the servers were nice. I will say I am Persian (and look very obviously so) and for some reason one lady only looked at/spoke to my husband and not me. I would say it's 4.5 stars because I was put off by this. Parking is tough right next to the restaurant but can be found metered down the street if you don't want to valet. We were a party of 4 at 7pm on a Saturday night and were seated right away at a booth.

Been going to Sadaf for the past 15 years. Past few years they have increased prices and made their…read moreportions smaller. Just until recently we have been experiencing changes in flavor and food presentation, still no excuse to serve people that have been supporting their business with tasteless and cold food. Last week I had enough and called over the manager. He did mention due to the high cost, they had to cut back and raise prices. Giving us the typical excuses to weasel their way out. Order 1 was tri stews that came out cold with small portion of rice. The stews were tasteless and meatless. Menu states chunks of beef but yet nothing in our dish. Maybe they gave us the veggie option for $28. I scream middle eastern from a mile away do you think I would go there for a veggie dish? I don't think so. Discrepancies can elevate a dish but unfortunately I don't think the new management in the kitchen has any clue on culinary arts. If you lack that part in your business at least serve a warm dish with decent size rice which is cheap to buy or add some side greens that can fill a normal size man so I don't have to stop by In N Out after. Order 2 was chicken barg that was cold as our stews, tasteless and strange color to it which manager claimed it was a new marinate and also agreed it was small. Small portion and cold but yet they charged $28 for it. No mention if their cuts are organic or not is very troubling as the chicken felt it was frozen with a chewing texture and a strange aftertaste. The icing on cake was a $5 premium charge for a small bottle of sparkling water that's normally at most at local gas stations for a $1.90. The manager had the nerve to tell us they have been cutting back including the small slice of lemon that they used to offer with a glass of water. This place is a joke and ran by people that just care for money as they have been opening new locations with our support. They have forgotten when you claim superiority over other restaurants you better deliver as presentation is key which this restaurant lacks as well. Manager claimed they focus on healthy marinates and oils and provide healthy meals which as if he was selling me on a gym membership! Maybe he should save all that talk and had refunded my money. I paid, even gave a healthy tip as the server had nothing to do with it and I would have ordered desserts but everything on it was unhealthy and store bought contradictory to his long speech. Save your money and don't go here.

This place has been here for a very long time. I used to come here often, but then I stopped, but…read moreI only stopped because it's just not really on my radar of places to go to eat, as it just blends away into the valley with so many other dining offerings. The staff is always amazing and attentive here. I've never left here feeling the same as when I came in, instead, I am always leaving here happier, that's what good service is about! Anyway, give them a try. It is definitely worth it. Great service, great food. Always clean and fast.

And the interior is changed. No more outside seating. The reason I won't be returning, however, is that I was given spoiled food. I've been coming here for a long time and have never had this issue before. The tabbouleh I was given was clearly spoiled. Instead of its usual fresh green color, it was yellow and had a horrific smell. It was obviously well past its shelf life.
