    Recipe proof

    This is my recipe of my order that I placed. Not only was it not ready its 7:32pm and my order is wrong. No one bothered to ask what was wrong with my order just got ignored. We spend a good amount on this restaurant every friday. Very disappointed with this location. Staff needs to be trained better. And try to get my order ready or at least correct. Will skip a few days and try a different spot since we don't seem to matter.

    Is it me or are the portions getting smaller? I remember loving to go to Zankou and when a new location popped up it was definitely an option to note if and when I am in that area. Burbank location has been my local spot but as the times passed I found myself visiting less frequently. It may be 5 years has passed since my last visit to this location. While in the area I thought it would be great to grab a meal to go. Although everything was just as I remembered, the portion seemed lacking. I can't tell if I am comparing to my previous visits or other restaurants that serve similar plates. Parking: medium sized private lot VERDICT: Rinse and repeat

    Huge shout out to Yesenia, Kim, and Ronald for making my experience at 10/10. They went above and beyond to make sure the food and experience was a great one for my sister and I. As soon as we walk through the door, they gave us a warm greeting and smile. This was the greatest experience and ambience that I've had at Zankou chicken. I came from out of town and can easily say that I will definitely come back to this location because of the outstanding experience.

    The chicken of my childhood! Used to eat Zankou when I lived in LA. Shout out to Zankou for their tabbouleh and garlic spread. This bright, lemony, bulgur salad is so refreshing and just compliments the chicken so well. Spread a little garlic love on the pita and perfection. However, I had neither one of those things during my meal here. On this day, we made about stopped at the Burbank location. I was tempted to order a chicken plate but I kept it light with the bowl. My side order got switched with my coworker, so I had the cabbage instead. They went a little heavy on the hummus but then again, it was still tasty.

    Ended up being too much food for 3.

    Been to a few Zankou's throughout the years and up until today the Hollywood and Pasadena stores were the best while the montebello one is the worst. But the Burbank store has been the best 2 days in a row. The girls at counter were very friendly and knowledgeable. Also, this store is beautiful like none of the others I've been too. But the true star of the show is the whole roasted chicken. I've always been a fan but today and yesterday it was perfection. I had never had their spicy harissa sauce and it's for sure a winner. This will be our special occasion Zankou for sure, worthy of an out of the way treat. One thing we didn't like was the rice. It tasted funny. The black girl was super nice.

    Chicken Kabob with Rice and Hummus only. It's my weekly lunch tradition. Love the Chicken Kabob. Takes 10 mins, but it's worth it.

    Tasty chicken abounds at this LA chain. It may have its detractors, but for a plate of cheap & tasty chicken, it doesn't get much better.

    This review is long overdue. My family and I have been coming here regularly for around a year, and…read moreit has truly become our home away from home. Whether it's a quick weekday lunch or a relaxed weekend dinner, this is always the place we look forward to. Of course, the food is consistently delicious, but what really keeps us coming back is the amazing team. Nikki, Helen, and Lauren make every visit feel special. They always greet us with genuine warmth and kindness, making us feel more like family than customers. Their hospitality and the care they put into every interaction never go unnoticed, and it's one of the biggest reasons this place means so much to us. And if you're a coffee lover, be sure to ask Nikki or Helen to make it. They make the best coffee, and you can tell they put the same care and attention into every cup as they do with every guest they serve. Thank you to the entire team for creating such a welcoming place. It's rare to find a restaurant where the food is excellent and the people make you feel so valued. We can't recommend this place enough.

    Three of us had dinner here on June 5th... the food was excellent and the prices amazing. large…read moreportions & so very fresh... Service was friendly & very helpful. Ambience was modern... We ordered chicken kebab plate, various vegetarian sides, & the lule (sirloin) kebob... The desserts looked to die for, but we were being good & passed, besides, we were too full to eat dessert anyway. We are definitely going back (this coming Friday for lunch)

    I stopped by Mediterranean Cafe recently and was honestly blown away. From the moment I walked in,…read morethe staff was welcoming and friendly, and the food came out fresh and beautifully prepared. I ordered the salad, and it was anything but ordinary. Every bite was packed with flavor crisp vegetables, fresh ingredients, and the perfect balance of seasoning and dressing. It's rare for a salad to be the star of the meal, but this one absolutely was. You can tell they don't cut corners when it comes to quality. The restaurant itself was clean, comfortable, and had a relaxed atmosphere that made it easy to enjoy the experience. Whether you're stopping in for a quick lunch or a casual dinner, this place delivers. If you're looking for fresh Mediterranean food with generous portions and incredible flavor, Mediterranean Cafe is definitely worth a visit. I'll absolutely be back to try more of the menu!

    I don't usually write reviews but this place was actually so good…read more I got the salmon croissant and it was perfect. Buttery, flaky, and the salmon tasted really fresh. Not heavy, just really well made. The owner is such a sweet lady, super welcoming and kind. You can tell she really cares. They also have Armenian-style dishes which is really cool, and the desserts in the front all look amazing (I regret not getting one). Definitely coming back.
