Ordered a family meal to go. I should've check before leaving. They forgot the tabbouleh salad and pickled turnips which I was looking forward to eating. What a disappointment! My first time here too. read more

Don't come here often, but I may be changing that. Had a great experience here last night and although I thought it was still a bit overpriced for what you got, it does seem better than my previous experiences. I got the half chicken dinner for my husband. They asked me if I wanted rice (or not?) ... Don't recall them giving or asking that question previously. Maybe it's something new? He likes the Mediterranean cucumber/tomato salad, so I ordered that for both of his sides. While waiting for my order, I decided to get some hummus also, so I ordered a small side which was only $5 and included 2 pita breads. So, once again, my husband made the comment saying he really likes this chicken because it's so moist. Trust me, he doesn't keep track of where I'm purchasing from. I just know he means it cuz he said it more than twice now about Zankou chicken. So, for the price, I got one entire half chicken meal, two nice scoops of cucumber/tomato salad, two pita breads & two single containers of (delicious) toom. ... AND container of hummus & two more pita breads! He almost ate it all, but there was enough chicken left to make a sandwich for his lunch today. I slathered hummus on a pita and shredded the leftover chicken. I brought the half container of leftover hummus to work and put some of it on a low carb tortilla with egg & stir fried veggies. Even more delicious and healthy with the hummus!! Thank you for stepping up your serving sizes. I'm sure it depends on the server, but hopefully it stays consistent. Maybe I just had a few bad previous experiences with very small portion sizes. It's well worth the price now. read more

I recently visited Zankou Chicken for the first time, and Karla made the experience so welcoming. She took the time to walk me through the menu, answered my questions, and recommended the half chicken, half beef plate with three sides. She also suggested trying the famous garlic sauce. I ordered the garlic sauce, hummus, tzatziki, and rice. The garlic sauce wasn't quite what I expected--it was very firm, almost like a butter spread, which made it a little difficult to spread. The tzatziki was thicker than I'm used to, more like a paste, but it had a really great flavor. The rice was a simple, well-cooked white rice that paired nicely with the meal. Both the chicken and the beef were flavorful, juicy, and well-seasoned. Overall, I really enjoyed my first visit. If I'm ever in the area again, I'd definitely stop by. The food was delicious, and the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming! read more

Zankou Chicken - Mediterranean Near Me - Huntington Beach, California

Okay, the food here is incredible! I've been getting the shawarma combo plate and it has quickly become one of my favorite go-to meals. The shawarma is flavorful, tender, and perfectly seasoned, and everything on the plate comes together so well. But the real star for me is their garlic sauce... it is SO good. Creamy, garlicky, and honestly the perfect addition to every bite. I loved it so much that I ended up coming back 4 days in a row It's the kind of place where you crave it again right after eating it. The fact that it's fast-casual makes it even better -- delicious food, quick, and consistently satisfying. Definitely a must-try! read more

Zankou Chicken - Tarna & Shawerma Combo Plate - Mediterranean Near Me - Huntington Beach, California

Zankou is a great Mediterranean food chain with just a few locations in the OC (which I rather go to avoid L.A.) I've been to this store a few times and enjoy all the menu items I've tried so far. The chicken is tasty, but a tiny bit dry; not juicy as I like. The variety of sides, ie., the hummus, rice, vegetables are very good quality. The service here is always good, and expedient, and the inside of the restaurant is always immaculate. When it comes down to it, I like coming here because the food is healthier and the prices are decent. read more

Picked up some food for my guests, we got the chicken family meal with rice, the tarna & shawerma combo plate, a chicken tarna wrap, and an order of the pita chips with muttabal. I ordered in store and they were very quick! Took about 10 mins and my food was ready. There was a lot of food and we had plenty of leftover rice! My friends and I all loved the garlic dip and enjoyed the muttabal, hummus, and tzatziki. The chicken was pretty standard rotisserie chicken, nothing toooooo special. I would definitely be back for the wraps tho! read more

We get takeout from here every once in a while and the food never disappoints! Some might even say this place has the best Mediterranean food in town!! Great service and ambiance. It's a great restaurant for families that's not too noisy. We usually get the chicken and steak platter with Basmati rice and cucumber salad. I love how fresh the salad is and how tender the chicken+steak are! The rice is so flavorful. Everything pairs so well together. Come try this place if you want high quality, authentic Mediterranean food right here in HB! read more

Delicious!! I love a good Mediterranean restaurant and this one always hits the spot. The steak kabob and chicken are always so tender and flavorful. All the sides are great and you know it's an amazing place if the rice is da bomb. I could just eat the rice by itself, it's perfectly done and has so much flavor on its own. Plus you can order one piece of Baklava and is also out of this world. Perfectly crisp and moist and buttery. Chefs kiss! read more

I have been ordering from this location for pickup. Recently they have been making mistakes on orders. It happened three times on different orders. On every order they forgot to include my side orders. Really Disappointed. Also they have been giving skimpy serving except rice. Today's I order bowl and they were stingy on protein portion, cucumber salad & taziki. read more

I placed an online order for pickup and drove all the way to the restaurant, only to be told when I arrived that they had sold out of chicken and it wouldn't be ready for another 40 minutes. It was frustrating because no one contacted me beforehand, even though the order had already been placed. A quick phone call or notification would have saved me the unnecessary drive and wasted time. I understand items can sell out, but better communication would have made this experience much less disappointing. read more

Latía, was extremely rude; how can she be in management? My phone in order was wrong, had to wait an extra 20 minutes and Latía was unprofessional by making a sarcastic reaction to me. As you can see from my previous 5 star review, I used to live and recommend this place. Latía has brought this place down. read more

This place is clean and I mean spotless clean, they do a really good job of keeping the restaurant clean. The food I love their sides and for me the best part of the meal is the garlic sauce, I could literally eat that stuff out of the container it's so good. As for the chicken itself, there was nothing wrong with it, it's moist, juicy, and healthy. But the thing about their chicken is that imo, if I were to go to Costco, buy the $5 chicken, put them side by side and did a taste test, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference, so I would definitely come back for the sides but I'm gonna buy 2-3 chickens at Costco to enjoy the meal. read more

Zankou Chicken - Chicken and more chicken - Mediterranean Near Me - Huntington Beach, California

Combo plate w shish + lule kebabs + rice, cucumber salad, hummus - lule kebab tasted like typical ground beef, fairly standard in flavor and is a bit dry. the shish kebab was incredibly tender with a perfect hint of smokiness from the grill - would highly recommend! Rice fluffy and savory, cucumber salad added a fresh tang, hummus creamy. Tri-tip shawarma plate w rice, tzatziki, mutabbal - meat was a bit dry and chewy. garlic sauce was a little greasy, but luckily the tzatziki came through as the perfect balance, adding coolness and a refreshing tang. the mutabbal was the best I've ever had - not overly sour and had a deep, smoky richness that elevated the entire plate. Service quick and friendly. Easy and free parking. Lots of table and seating inside, perfect spot for healthy takeouts or lunch/dinner! read more

Where do I even begin with Zankou Chicken? I first fell in love with it when I lived in LA with a location nearby because it was the only really healthy food around, and I have to say that no matter the location, the quality and consistency always is the same! My husband and I now live in Irvine and we will take the trek to go to this location since it's the closest to us! They make ordering very easy with online, call in or at the establishment options so there's no excuse to not try it! This location in particular have the SWEETEST and most personable staff! You have to try their garlic sauce!!! I absolutely love their hummus but every time I start on the garlic sauce, that is the only thing I reach for! I always get the chicken bowl, and my husband always gets the combo plate with lule and grilled chicken - and everything is absolutely delicious! I will be back forever!! read more

We went to eat at your zankou location on beach blvd in Huntington Beach on 02/25/2026 at 3:43PM and tried to use a paper gift card for $20 which was given to me as a gift. Unfortunately there was a rude employee by the name of Frank with glasses who refused to honour it. He claimed that it had to be like a credit card. My card number is 5235233202434323 it was a paper one with a QR code. I end up paying for the food which was $22.60. Can someone from your company explain to me what is the process. It was a bad service and inconvenient. If the paper card is NOT valid please let me know how can I fix it. Your upper management need to have a conversation with frank regarding his attitude and poor service. Sincerely Malek Erem read more

I have been MANY times! Its a hit or miss, but the last couple times its been a total miss the chicken was soooooo dry and the guy yesterday helping me was so rude. I was just asking a couple simple questions. I would really like a call from corporate and not deal with the store staff. read more

Exceptional rotisserie chicken that is not only savory and delicious, but all of the sides are amazing as well. The garlic sauce is their secret weapon to making the chicken even better. The portions are decent and when we order the family meal, there is enough food so that we are satisfied and still have some leftovers. Overall, this is probably our favorite rotisserie chicken spot in the area. Every time we've been, they are always consistent with up-keeping their quality and you can always count on them to cook their chicken perfectly. read more

Zankou Chicken - Inside dining area - Mediterranean Near Me - Huntington Beach, California

This place hits the spot! I was recommended this place by a few of my Lebanese friends and they did not disappoint. The combo plate has everything you need, definitely filling alone. It comes with two pita bread slices too! The rice was moist and flavorful, it soaks up all the juices from the meats sitting on top. The chicken was moist and explodes with flavor. The meat that came within the plate itself was soft and tender. The only issue I had with this was the side of Shish that I got, was on the dryer side and overcooked. I think it might be due to the small container a that might have caused it to overcooked. Other than that, I would 10/10 recommend this place! read more

My goodness. Zankou chicken will always the go to place when you are craving something refreshing. Seriously when you do not know what to eat. This is the place that comes to mind and it hits the spot every single time. Their tri tip plate was so tender and moist... not dry at all especially with the organic tasting hummus and tableau. The service is quick and always so accommodating especially in giving extra sauce. And there is a massive ambiance olive tree in the middle which gives a taste of the food! We are definitely regulars here and you should be too! read more

Zankou Chicken - Combo Kabob Plate - Mediterranean Near Me - Huntington Beach, California

My cousin introduced me to Zankou, and I haven't looked back since my first bite! This place is so good! The tri-tip shawerma wrap is tasty! The breading is nice and soft and fully supports its content without being too thick and overbearing. If you're looking to control your portions, this is a great choice, as it is not heavy nor large. The combo plate is filling and comes with two choices of skewers/kabobs, cucumber salad, spiced onions, rice, a roasted tomato, hummus, and pita bread. The chicken is perfectly-cooked and well-seasoned, and the shish kabob is tender and juicy! I love hummus, and this hummus is on point! The onions were the perfect complement of flavours, too. The cucumber salad and rice were fair, but I was so happy to get two yellow chili peppers to add some spice to the flavour profile. There is both indoor and outdoor seating, so you can choose to enjoy fresh air and sun or pop music with air conditioning. The parking lot size is fair, but there are many businesses in this plaza, so during peak hours, I can see how parking can be a burden. Staff has always been friendly and helpful, answering my questions about the food and quick to offer recommendations. Pricing can be a bit much for the portions you receive, but you pay for quality and flavour! Everything is freshly made and tastes accordingly! read more
