    Chicken kabobs plate
    Wayne G.

    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

    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.

    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.

    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 has great flavor and the quality is better than any rotisserie chicken I have ever had…read more The hummus delicious and all the food tastes fresh. My kids also enjoy the chicken, fries and cookie.

    I wasn't expecting to be this impressed, but every single thing we ordered exceeded expectations…read more The Gaucho Bowl was outstanding. The chicken breast was incredibly juicy, tender, and perfectly seasoned. What really made the bowl special was how many fresh toppings it came with. The sweet corn, flavorful kale, fresh tomato salsa, and perfectly seasoned garbanzo beans each brought something different to the dish, so every bite had a little variety. It never felt repetitive, and every ingredient elevated the bowl to the next level. The crispy pita and hummus were another highlight. The pita had a satisfying crunch, and the hummus wasn't the usual plain version. It was topped with a blend of flavorful spices that added depth and made it seriously addictive. We also ordered the quarter dark chicken, which came with two very generous sides. Both the regular fries and sweet potato fries were hot, crispy, and seasoned perfectly. What impressed me most was that every component of the meal was thoughtfully prepared. Nothing felt like an afterthought. The portions were generous, everything tasted fresh and healthy, and the seasoning was spot on from start to finish. It's rare to find a place where even the kale, garbanzo beans, and side dishes are memorable, but Girl & the Chicken pulled it off. If I'm back in Burbank, this will definitely be one of my first stops.

Who doesn't love a $3 beer with lunch? As for the food, I was thoroughly impressed! Pastrami melt was amazing! Full of delicious pastrami, melted cheese, and pickles. So delicious!

Side salad was super fresh. Everything was so delicious! Portions nice; prices fair. I am impressed with Wild Carvery because I could tell that the ingredients are fresh and the quality is high. I also suspect that they make their own pickles? But I'm not sure. If quality and freshness are important to you, I highly recommend checking out Wild Carvery. I can't wait to come back and try their burgers.

There is plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors at the restaurant!

The restaurant itself was clean, comfortable, and had a relaxed atmosphere that made it easy to enjoy the experience.

I don't live in the area, but I have friends who do, and I often swing by when I'm in town because I also get my hair done at Dylan Keith salon nearby. What I love about it: it's a perfect place to pick up a thoughtful gift for the foodie in your life, and the food is consistently fantastic with something new to try each visit. The display and packaging feel special--even the jars add a cute touch. Recent highlights: I went with the Lil Guy sandwich with French ham and a chocolate chip cookie to-go. So good on the drive home to Orange County. I also grabbed a jar of their buttermilk dressing to save time at home, and I brought home a quiche and a biscuit--both were amazing. They rotate items based on what's in season, which keeps things exciting. Why I'll be back: it's a small business that truly cares about quality and presentation. The location is convenient, the staff are friendly, and there are plenty of tasty items to bring home, including make-at-home pizzas and a rotating seasonal lineup. If you're in the area, definitely stop by Little Nelly. It's a delightful spot with great food, thoughtful gifts, and a memorable neighborhood vibe.

The lamb was incredible, very tender and flavorful in a nice lavaosh. The chicken had great seasoning and the fresh bread was so good. Both were very large, like almost too much for one person.
