Can you reach nirvana with a burger? After trying the lamb burger at Olive Pit Grill, I'm convinced…read moreyou can. Juicy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly, this burger was absolutely to die for. On a whim, I asked our server what I should pair it with, and he recommended the Hazy Little Thing IPA. I have to give him credit--it was the perfect pairing and took the whole meal to the next level. The service was just as memorable as the food. Our server was friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely steered us in the right direction with his recommendation. If you're a burger lover, do yourself a favor and order the lamb burger... and don't skip the Hazy Little Thing IPA alongside it. You can thank me later.

I visited Olive Pit Grill in downtown Brea with two friends because we wanted a healthy meal…read more The three of us ordered Dolmades, a Margherita pizza, grilled chicken kabobs, and a sirloin steak kabob. Everything was delicious; I especially enjoyed the Dolmades, which I was trying for the first time. For dessert, we had Greek yogurt mixed with nuts and honey, which was a perfect way to finish the meal.

My family liked this place, so we decided to give it a try. We sat outdoors to sit with a dog…read more(they're dog friendly for patio) and we were handed menus right away. After a bit of time, we ordered with a server that was very friendly. Our hummus trio came out first after our drinks and it was pretty good. Best out of the trio has to be the red pepper hummus for sure. We also ordered a side of cucumbers to eat with the hummus which was good too. I will say the lemonade and the arnold palmer was quite subpar because I was expecting nice freshly squeezed lemonade flavor, but it didn't really taste what I was expecting. Our mains came out after a bit and we each got a plate with different meat selections. One with chicken, beef, and lamb. They were all pretty good and I really enjoyed the roasted veggies paired with the meat and the basmati rice. One plate was a huge portion that I could probably get another meat out of it. Overall had a good experience and would come back!

I usually love Panini Grill and count on them for consistent food and service, but my first visit…read moreto the Brea location today was a total mess. My friend and I had lunch on the patio and waited a solid 30 minutes just to get water. The service was painfully slow and careless; tables around us were left uncleaned, and when our food arrived, we had no utensils. After asking the food runner and waiting around while our meals got cold, my friend finally had to get up and track down silverware herself. When the waiter finally acknowledged us, he literally threw the utensils onto the table. Then, when we asked for extra napkins, he actually put his hand up to block us and just walked away. I was so shocked by the blatant rudeness that I called for the manager. While the manager apologized and gave us a free dessert, a sweet treat doesn't fix a total lack of professionalism. If employees hate being there that much, they shouldn't be working in hospitality! Management is also to blame by keeping them employed. When reading some of the other reviews, seems like service is really lacking here and the waiters have major attitude problems. The food is always great, but this type of behavior and level of disrespect makes me never want to come back. I will take my money elsewhere.

Today I was craving Pita Hot, but I wanted something fresh. Inspiration struck: I could make my own…read moretabbouleh bowl! One of the wonderful things about Pita Hot is that you can order dishes a la carte. I got a side of shawarama meat with tahini and a medium tabbouleh, and the portions were great!!! Behold: a gorgeous, fresh tabbouleh shawarama salad. I also ordered one of their coffee drinks for the first time. I really liked the cardamom latte: it was at a great price point, and not too sweet. I will definitely be coming back!

Pita Hot has been around a long time. Tucked inside of a mini-plaza on Chapman in Fullerton, Pita…read moreHot has long been surrounded by Fullerton food staples such as Huntington Ramen, Roll & Grill, and Curry Hut. But where Pita Hot sets itself apart from those places is the community. When you walk in, you're greeted with smiles, a question about how your day is, and if you've been there a few times, a quick "how's the wife and kids?" Although some people may see the price tags and wince, they do not skimp on portions. They will fill your plate to the absolute brim, give you one huge pita, and send you on your way. The flavors on the food are nothing to scoff at either. The hummus, tabbouleh, and beef skewer are absolute hits. Flavorful bites with the perfect amount of balance between the acidity of the tabbouleh, the light and rich hummus, and the meatiness of the beef. The shrimp skewer is tasty as well but not something I think I'd get again. The rice pairs well with everything, and as I've mentioned before, the humongous pita they give you is delicious as well. A three skewer plate is enough for two people! All in all, Pita Hot has been around this long for a reason. Their business model and recipes are tried and true. Overall, 9/10.

This restaurant is consistently excellent, especially when it comes to flavor. The portions are…read moregenerous, making it a great value. I recommend the chicken or beef shawarma, as well as the combo or veggie plates. For sides, you can't go wrong with the tabbouleh, baba ghanoush, hummus, potato salad, or fattoush salad. The service is friendly. Ambiance is pleasant but casual. Decor is ok. Wished they had more photos or artwork showcasing Lebanon, Egypt or other Mediterranean countries. It would add more character to the space and create a stronger sense of place. In a strip mall near CVS, the restaurant has a clean, casual interior that isn't memorable, but the food and service stand out.

There is a bell that you have to ring in order to get one. Remember to get it! It's very tender. The salad section was great. It had a good variety of greens, and they were all dressed and seasoned very well. I liked the big cucumber salad and the kale with pita chip salad the most. The pita chips as croutons were very nice and crispy. The hummus section was awesome. My favorite one is the green one. I think it's avocado? You should try them all! Don't get filled up on it, though--save room for the meats! Besides the lamb shank, I liked the kofta and the gyro. The first batch of kofta I had was very juicy, and the second was more on the drier side. Same goes for the gyro. It was cut kind of thick and was a little dry. The garlic sauce they have went very well with it! I also got the beets, and they were my favorite item. They were sweet and tender, cooked to perfection. The cantaloupe and honeydew were both very sweet. I think that's kind of hard to come by these days. Their pudding was okay, not my favorite. I also tried the baklava, and it is definitely one of the better ones I have ever had. Definitely recommend this place, and I will come back.

The food overall was pretty good. I think that the gyro could have been thinner, a by thick for me,…read morewould still eat it though. They sort of got an Indian mix in their buffet, the problem is that the curry is watered down, and the chicken over done or too loose. Luckily I'm not here for the Indian food. The grilled veggies was the real star of the show, I can't wait to go again to try their greens, but since there's that recall I'm playing safe, looked amazing though. The lamb was tender and great, although it's one shank per person there is a lamb rice dish on the buffet line and you can get more lamb meat. The beef kebab is pretty standard and the rose water is uniquely good. Although I did water mine down a little to reduce the sweetness. The desserts are great, usually the fruits at buffets aren't sweet but these were! The pasteries felt like it was Greek restaurant grade. Would come here again when I'm in the area, the price is great if you typically can eat two plates - cost of plates nowadays are too much elsewhere.
