“This San Fernando Valley Israeli restaurant opened a location in West Adams, bringing its delicious, satisfying healthy(ish) fare to the neighborhood. ”
This place was great. I got a chicken shawarma and I don’t know what kinda sauce they put in that thing but it was very sweet with a little citrus taste, the chicken was very well seasoned, and it was tasty. The fries were also very well seasoned and crispy. Overall, the food here was very delicious! The outdoor patio had a very relaxing vibe with trees and lights above us which I also loved. I hope to come back to this place again and I recommend it to anyone looking for some delicious Mediterranean food.
I enjoyed the meal here but it’s not a place I would probably rush to get back to. The options are a bit limited, especially in terms of sides and appetisers. The food quality was good. Not amazing but good.
I had to try this little eatery on a warm Summer evening. The ambience is lovely. The kitchen sits in the back and it is small but always bustling with movement. You have to walk through the outdoor only dining area complete with potted Olive trees to place your order or peruse the menu. It's nice, clandestine and inviting.
The young lady who took our order did not smile and seemed to have a perpetual scowl on her face. She was not very warm and friendly when I first met her. I went back a second time and she was a bit more welcoming but thank goodness the food is delicious or I would not keep coming back. She isn't the reason you go anyways (the guy that takes the orders as well is way nicer and friendlier).
I ordered the chicken plate with salad but my date got his usual salmon plate and let me tell you...after sampling his meal, I was disappointed I didn't just follow his lead. The chicken was tasty and very good but that salmon!!!!!! Wow...nicely cooked and seasoned and just DELICIOUS! We also ordered the brussel sprouts and those are delicious as well.
I've gone back two more times after my initial visit to get the salmon and brussel sprouts.
Things to consider: check your food before you leave. They missed my rice the second time I ordered and forgot my pita bread. They kinda apologized but basically told me to check my food. I'm passing that advice on to you.
You have to grab the plastic utensils and napkins yourself as they do not add that to the bag.
The salmon is 20 something and the Brussels are 10 something...so you are paying close to 40 for one meal but it is worth it.
Parking is terrible.
Dine in at least once to enjoy the ambience.
Happy Eating!
Yo this place was way better than I expected. I have high standard for this kind of cuisine and they knocked it out the park. The chicken was so juicy and succulent. The rice was divine and the sauces and pickled dishes they added were amazing. A great place for a quick bite to eat or to chill with friends. I can’t wait to try the fish as well as their beef and lamb kebab. I felt very full after finishing this def counts as a good healthy meal with lots of green options
Eat in an outdoor garden. Heaters were blasting so felt warm. My friends first time and she liked it so recommend to show off the neighborhood!! I like the falafel plate or the fish plate. My partner gets the brussel sprouts as a side. Fries are solid.
