Great place for lunch. I had the plate with grilled chicken kebab and a beef kofta kebab. With rice, and hummus with a thick nicely charred pita. So good!!! They have a nice selection of sauces you serve yourself. I enjoyed the garlic yogurt sauce, dill yogurt sauce, cilantro jalapeño sauce and the fire chili sauce. The sauces were very good although the fire chili sauce isn't very fire. More fire please!!! Service was quick and very friendly and Mark was awesome. Sat outside and enjoyed this yummy lunch. Inside was very clean and so were the bathrooms. read more

I recently visited a friend in Westchester and bought lunch to go from here. I placed the order online the night before for pick up next day. I love the app/ online ordering because it shows the specials. It scheduled it for 10:45 am pick up on a Saturday which worked out perfectly. I arrived by 10:50am and my order was already ready to go. Fresh and healthy food well made. I would definitely come back! read more

The Kebab Shop is a perfect spot to stop - like what I did there LOL but really... anytime I have a Mediterranean crave this is my go too. It can get a little pricy but honestly... if you try other Mediterranean restaurants nearby... the price is actually affordable here. Upon walking up you can tap in your order or order at the counter. I also love the space it's large inside and plenty of seating The flavors are always on point and surely fills me up. I love the different options and add ons they provide. Everything that I have tried so far has been wonderful. I always look forward to coming back. read more

This isn't go to place when I can't figure out what I want to eat. I really love the lamb , the flavor was good, though it was a little on the dry side this time. I'm a big fan of their fries and rice, both are consistently good and make the plate feel filling and satisfying. Service was also good -- friendly and efficient. Overall, still a place I enjoy and would come back to, especially for the sides and lamb. read more

Finally tried one this shop, and I was very impressed. It was huge, filling and full of flavor! I went with both chicken kabob and chicken shawarma in a wrap with all the custom fixings. I did go crazy and built an almost $30 wrap but when I tell you it was massive and large enough to share. Not dry at all, if you add the sauce and or hummus options. I added fries too! So many different plates available but I like the wrap a lot! Can't wait to explore more custom options to find my perfect wrap combo. read more

I was between 3-4. It was okay and I know LA prices are expensive but it was very elated prices for an okay food experience. The chicken shawarma bowl did come with a lot. I added the grilled veggies and idk it had a weird taste so maybe that's what took down the experience. My bf got the chicken shawarma plate and wasn't too happy. Service was quick, friendly, and patient. Has a fast food vibe. You can just come eat really quick and go. I would say give it a try, I would come back again if I was near by to see if I had a better experience. read more

Really good Mediterranean food. We ordered their family meal with a salad and beef kafta with rice, we added falafel, kebab fries, and baklava. It came with lots of sauces, OG sour cream, dill sour cream, cilantro jalapeño and hot chili - the cilantro jalapeño is a winner. Everything was so good including their grilled pita!

I really like this idea! It's like a jersey Mike's for kebabs. I had the lamb/beef wrap. The wrap is on the thin side, but it's flavorful because they grill it. I really like that part. Unfortunately I felt the lamb/beef is sliced so thin that it's very dry. You need lots of sauce to make it work. The flavor is good, but it's more like jerky than it should be. I'll try the chicken next time. The El Segundo location has a parking lot so easy parking. They were fast with the order. The place is clean with plenty of seats. Staff was also friendly. Not a bad idea to walk in so you can choose your toppings! read more

The Kebab Shop was right across the street from our hotel we were staying at, so it was a super convenient stop for dinner right before our show! I thought the food overall was very good. Me and my friend split the bowl with carved lamb beef, romaine, cucumbers, and pickled onion. We also got the saffron rice. I really enjoyed the taste of the carved lamb beef gyro and was very comparable to other spots I've had it. Being in a bowl, I do wish it was smaller chunks to make it easier to eat all the toppings in one bite. I also thought the price was very fair for how much food we were getting. I do wish it came with a little more rice, as I like to have rice in every bite. read more

Here, you don't worry about constantly increasing menu prices or garbage point of sale credit card machines that automatically prompt you to leave a 25% tip on your takeout meal. Owned by Greeks and run by Greeks, they serve the best Greek food you will ever find anywhere else. I have specifically searched everywhere in Los Angeles to find better gyro, and I've come up empty handed. The closest I've found is the sadly closed down Papa Cristo's. Let's get back to Aliki's. The gyro meat is carefully prepared out of Chicago and shipped here regularly, and don't let pita bread fool you - most places give you thin and unappetizing pita; theirs comes from a special bakery and comes out thick and beautiful, the way you want it when you dip it into their homemade hummus or melitzanosalata. Sometimes items are not available on the menu. In a world where high anxiety rests on heads of restaurant managers to never fail to have a menu item in stock, it's quite refreshing to know the restaurant is run by humans. Aliki's will forever be my favorite Greek Restaurant.

It's been a long week and I needed some comfort food. I was in the South Bay this weekend and…read moredecided to look for a place to get a good gyro. I dropped by on a Saturday afternoon, where a few other patrons were already dining. The seating has around 6 or so tables inside that can fit around 4 each, and they also have high chairs for children! I ordered a number 17, which is the gyro, and got a side of hummus and pita then found a table to sit at. I had just finished buckling my child into the high chair when my order was delivered to my table! They are super fast here! The super friendly waiter delivered my meal, and I dug in. The gyro was stuffed with meat! This is a huge deal, since a lot of places skimp and don't give enough. So extra points to Al Hamra for a job well done. The flavor of the meat was juicy and well seasoned, super delish! The hummus and pita was good, although I usually add a bit of spices to my hummus so this one was a little plainer than I'm used to. Either way, it was a nice addition to the meal. The grand finale were the desserts! I usually go for baklava, but decided to try the knafeh, a layered cheese dessert with syrup and pistachios. Get the knafeh! The warm cheese and syrup were so delicious and made for the perfect ending to a good meal! I will definitely be back, the food was super tasty, and the people working there were friendly and helpful. Thanks for the happiness, Al Hamra!

Our friend, who's been coming here for years, highly recommended Al Hamra and we weren't…read moredisappointed! The food was full of flavor, and the portions were generous. Our group of four adults and two kids came in starving. I had the chicken kabob wrap, which was a perfect burrito-sized meal, while my husband enjoyed a beef and chicken kabob plate that fully satisfied his appetite. Honestly, the highlight for me was the warm pita served with garlic mayo, so much better than the cold or room-temperature pitas you often get at otherMediterranean spots. We also shared dessert, the kulfi cheesecake, and left completely stuffed. Al Hamra is a cozy family-run restaurant with just a few tables, but the food makes it well worth it. I'll definitely rotate between this spot and Chicken Maison for future visits.

I love the Nick The Greek franchise. The food is a bit different in every location and this was the…read morefirst time I tried this spot. I had the pork belly gyro plate that comes with fries or rice, pita bread, tzatziki and a salad. It's a great deal for the amount of food you get. I also tried their new side dish, spanakopita, and it was pretty good. They also have Greek desserts like loukoumades and baklava. There are a few tables inside but most of the orders are to go. Free parking is available at the front of the store.

It was my first time at Nick the Greek and I absolutely loved it!…read more Parking in the plaza was limited but easy to find that day (despite being on the weekend), right in front of the restaurant. I was looking to find something quick to take out and enjoy on a beautiful day and The Mediterranean Bowl + small drink were perfect. The bowl offered a great balance of flavors and was of good size. Basmati rice, Kale/greens, Tomatoes, Cucumbers, Basmati rice, Chickpeas, Pickled Onions, Lamb. It was so delicious! Service was pleasant and the wait time minimal. I'll definitely try the other items on the menu and I'm glad to know of the multiple locations.

Food was good, portion size was good, pita bread was cold and chewy, no soft and warm like it should be, humus was good, Lulu kabob was a little tough to cut considering that it is minced meat. Staff was friendly and attentive. Nothing really special that would cause me to make a special trip here for lunch or dinner.

Now y'all, I'm going to be truthful here -- wrapped in a little grace…read more Petit Café has good food -- I mean the kind that makes you smile before you even take the second bite. The flavors are on point, the portions are just right, and the kitchen clearly knows what they're doing. But Lord... the service? That's another story. Our waitress acted like she had somewhere better to be -- and honestly, she looked irritated the moment I walked up to the counter. She was selectively dropping plates at certain tables and skipping others like we were invisible. And let me be clear: Petit Café is the kind of place where you place your order at the counter, whether you're dining in or taking it to go. But whew... the impatience was loud. You'd barely get a word out before she was sighing like you were ruining her whole day. Listen... I don't expect folks to roll out a red carpet, but I do expect common courtesy -- especially when the food is this good. It's hard to enjoy a great meal when the service feels like you're bothering somebody. Petit Café, the kitchen is shining. Now it's time for the service to catch up.
