    Mixed Combo Kabob Plate with tabbouleh, rice and cucumber salad. An extra skewer of shish kabob and a small side of tabbouleh.
    Noor A.

    Allow me to share with you why the Zankou Chicken in Glendale is the best of them all. It begins with the chipper, professional attitude that Carlos has when taking your order over the phone. When you arrive to the restaurant, you are greeted with a kind smile and your order is made promptly and completely. They're even generous with their garlic paste and extra peppers that are asked for, free of charge. But most of all, I was incredibly impressed with Ruth's humility and compassion. It is very clear that she and the team work very hard and have pride in their work. This team offers exemplar customer service! The food is clean, well made, and delicious. The team is efficient, professional and polite! I highly recommend Zankou Chicken in Glendale!

    Another delicious Zankou Chicken location. This location is just as busy as the others I've been to with the same old school decor. There is a small parking lot in front and an underground parking structure that has an elevator if you are concerned about accessibility. I was in the area and decided to drop in for takeout. Took home chicken, hummus, garlic paste, tabbouleh, pickles, and tzatziki. Every single item was so good. They forgot my baklava though hence the one star down.

    I've come back here a few more times since my last review; mainly because it's the closest location to me, and let's be real, I love my chicken. I'm someone who prefers healthy, smaller meal portions, and Zankou definitely delivers on that (They offer other, large portioned items on the menu, but this is simply what I like). That said, I really want to point out how much the service has improved for me since my original experience. Tigran (shoutout to you!) has been amazing every time I've come in these past few months. He's taken care of my order with no issues, and even when he's not there, the other staff members have been nothing short of great. I always get the Chicken Tarna in a large container or the Tarna bowl with rice. And since I've become a bit of a regular lately, Tigran and a few of the others have remembered my name and my order, which honestly makes me feel so welcome. I'm really glad I gave this place another shot; now it's one of my favorite quick food spots to stop by.

    My wife and I went to this location with 18 dollars, the remaining balance I had left on my debit card. We were unsure of the potential vibe of this Zankou location, but as we walked through the door, we were eagerly greeted by three chipper employees, and immediately knew our lunch had the potential to be fantastic. We were having trouble figuring out the optimal meal for our budget so I explained the situation to Sipan & Kim. I have only 18 bucks. What could I get to satisfy two hungry artists?" Immediately, Sipan and Kim were actively racking their brains to find the best bang for our buck. They were contemplating between a 1/2 chicken plate, or a chicken bowl with extra protein, or maybe even a schwarma plate (no, that would be too much after taxes). We finally went with Kim's suggestion of the 1/2 chicken plate with a side of hummus and cucumber salad would be the best option with our price constraint. We placed our order and it came out to 18.70. I placed my card on the machine, with a slight fear I wouldn't be able to pay for it. The card beeps and I'm 70 cents short. Sipan, the main cashier helping us, assured me that it was completely fine and placed his card on reader, covering my charge. Then I thanked him profusely, as he handed me water cups and my receipt. We got our food three minutes after paying for it, which was life saving, like finding an oasis on a long Saharan trek. We were very hungry. As I went to pick up the tray with the food, Kim threw on an extra pita bread. Thank you Kim. We got our food and it was as incredible as the service. The crispy skin and juicy meat of the chicken, the perfectly smooth and grounding hummus, and refreshing crunchy salad, was wiped clean, eaten, and appreciated as we felt its its nutrients convert into energy for us to live our blessed lives. Lesly then handed me a drink on the house, which was really kind too. Overall, I'd give this Zankou chicken experience a 10/5 stars. The true definition of quality and fast food. The team is vibrant, uplifting, and inspiring. Thank you especially to Sipan, Kim, and Lesly for creating an experience to remember, on the first day of 2026 to say the very least! What a way to start the new year.

    Best food!

    Chicken Kabob Plate with Extra Chicken Skewer
    Francisco P.

    Me and my cousin were on our way home from Los Angeles after a very long day at work and I still had about an hour and a half left to go, so I decided to look up a spot to eat. I was craving mediterranean food and after a quick google search, I found this particular spot and I figured I'd give it a try. Parking isn't the easiest as its very limited, however I was able to find a spot close by and I walked in. Upon walking in, I was greeted by Tigran and a friendly and welcoming personality. I stood in life while I looked at the menu and he had asked if we were ready, however I needed a bit more time to see what I was going to order. Once I was ready, I walked up to the counter and Tigran proceeded to take our order. My cousin ordered the Chicken Tarna Plate with the basmati rice and garden salad, while I opted for the Chicken Kabob Plate with basmati rice and their tabbouleh salad and an extra chicken skewer. We also ordered two drinks, my cousin had the hibiscus tea and I had the cucumber mint lemonade. The hibiscus tea was not sweetened as most places, which is actually a good thing and pairs up great with this good. My cucumber mint lemonade was the BEST lemonade I've ever had, it was extremely delicious. I must admit I did have to add extra ice and dilute it slightly by adding some water because it was the taste was strong, but in a good way. After serving our drinks, we walked over to take a seat by the windows facing south, the overall seating area was really nice and open, with plenty of space around each seat. I wanted to watch the Dodger game and so I chose this seat where I can have my iPad streaming the game while I enjoyed my food. While I waited for my food, I realized this place is fairly busy, lots of traffic, however it is not overcrowded by any means. I believe majority of orders were to go, however seeing a lot of people made me think this food was going to be really good. After waiting a little bit of time, my order was ready and I called up. I grabbed my tray and walked back to my table. I realized they had these little clear containers with something white inside, looked like some semi-clear white paste but I wasn't sure what it was. Curious to know, I walked to the front and asked Tigran what it was and with a smile he said "That's garlic sauce", I told him I wasn't sure but not once did he make me feel odd or weird about asking what it was. He continued to have a friendly personality. I finally decided to try out the food and oh man, the food was DELICIOUS, I have only had mediterranean from a few places, 5 to be exact, and this one was definitely on top of the list. Each one of our plates had 2 pita breads, which I really appreciated since all the other spots only come with 1 bread and I have to purchase additional ones. I realized maybe I shouldn't eat more than 1 but it was really good, you know I ate both of them haha I could not finish my meal, perhaps because I had 3 cups of the lemonade, or the two pita breads, so I decided t take it to-go. I walked to the counter and asked Tigran if i could have a to-go box for my food and he gave me a very sturdy box, which worked perfect compared to some other flimsy containers other restaurants hand out. I also ordered an extra side of hummus, trust me its REALLY good! Tigran asked me what my name was (for the new order) and I said 'Francisco', he said "Ok I'll try to remember that, I sometimes forget but I will try to remember your name next time you come in" with a smile again. I said I wasn't from this area and I lived out of town, I was just passing by. Overall, I give this place 5 start but I would give it 10 if it was possible. To the staff at Zankou Chicken, thank you for keeping a clean place, to the kitchen, great job, everything was delicious, and last but not least, to Tigran, thank you for everything. If you read this, thank you for the welcoming and friendly customer service, keep it up. I will DEFINITELY stop by for lunch or dinner again when I drive to Los Angeles. Sincerely, Francisco P. P.S. Too bad I did not take a better picture of my food or my cousin's plate.

    The food is delicious. I like the variety of food options, there is a lot of seating, and the customer service. If you are craving middle eastern flavor, this is a must.

When I say no, I don't want a 40 minute round trip for missing fries, they tell me they will credit my payment method instead. This has never actually happened once. The most recent time, I left a message to complain and someone called me to apologize. I told him they never follow through with their promise to credit the missing items.

I was overwhelmed by the lit up menu above the cashier counter since it ranged from grilled plates to salads and even wraps I finally landed on the Chicken & Salmon Grilled Plate for dine-in since I was indecisive on what kind of protein I wanted and got a Loaded Grilled Corn to go. I opted for half and half which was rice and salad as well as the spicy hummus. I liked how open the restaurant is with the tables spread out far enough from each other that it felt like I was in my own bubble as I read my book while waiting for the food to be done. I was surprised minutes later that they brought your food to the table and was excited when the plate came out and my corn already packed up. I was expecting the corn to be like esquite but it was corn on the cob, but that was my bad for assuming. Between the salmon and the chicken, I loved the salmon since it was crispy and juicy as well. Chicken was good too. Not a big raw veggie person when it comes to tomatoes, but happily ate it with my salad and proteins. Definitely only ate half of my meal since it was a lot and got the rest to go with a bunch of sumac packets since it's my fave seasoning with this food. So glad I was able to find and try this place out! Definite felt pricey when paying at first but the quality of food and service you get is worth it.
