STOP SCROLLING AND GO - NOW!Oh wow!! This was on my list of places to try and I'm sooooo glad I finally did. From the moment you enter, warmly welcomed and seated, the experience begins. Starting with a beautiful environment that's so pleasing to look at. The booths are incredibly comfortable - perfect for enjoying your forthcoming gastronomic experience.We had two the exceptional pleasure of having Samir graciously attend to us. (We'd go back just to see him.) With this being our first time, we placed our trust in his knowledgeable hands - and were DELIGHTED!!!!We had the appetizer sampler and house combo. Each bite was delicious. Fresh and hot: The lamb kebab and beef/lamb kebab was truly exceptional. I'm so-so about lamb as it can be "gamey", but it was sublime.We ended with the most incredible Arabic coffee (I'm ordering more next time!) and perfect dessert topped with crushed pistachios on what looked and tasted like panna cotta. Just the right blend of sweetness and cream.Throughout our meal Samir was there - attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. It's not often you have the owner so passionate and caring about their guests. He was the icing on the cake.Next time I'll have to remember to take some pictures before devouring every delicious bite.

Desert Moon Grill definitely serves up delicious Mediterranean food! We tried a plethora of different foods including Taboulah, Falafel, Hummus, Pita, and Desert Moon Mix. The Taboulah was delicious and the favor was very refreshing. The hummus and pita combo was tasty. The thickness of the pita bread was fluffy and puffy. The Falafel was also crispy and delicious.The piece de resistance was the desert moon mix. With its beef, lamb, and chicken mix. It certainly hits the spot. Having both kinds of flavored rice was also delicious. The decor and service were also great as it definitely felt authentic. If you like Mediterranean, you can't go wrong here!

Great food, nice ambience, service was also fine.Come here for the Kabsa which they make on Saturdays!Chicken Kabsa: chicken is soft and goes perfectly with the rice. The rice was the highlight and there is plenty if you want to share this along with an app amongst 3-4 people. I suggest adding more meat.App platter: really good, but the baba ghanoush and hummus were the highlights. Comes with dolma and feta as well, which I would request to substitute next time. The pita was a nice accompaniment.Service/ambience: nice family setting and they have many booths. Service was fine as well. Parking: plenty in the same lot.

My husband went here to have lunch with his dad and he ordered me a meal to go because he said "you've got to try this food, it's amazing" and it sure was! I had the beef koobideh, it was sooo delicious and the rice is extremely taste. We also had the humus which was so smooth and full of flavor. I definitely want to come back here and try other foods!

Came here for dinner with coworkers and wow everything we ordered was so delicious. We got the large mixed meat platter to share amongst 6 people and all the meats were cooked to perfection. We didn't finish all the food, but we were excited to relive this meal through leftovers. Service was quick and the waiters offered us samples of their coffee. The interior was nice and spacious and felt cozy at the same time. The food was soo yummy - I will definitely be back for more!

We tried Mansaf (Friday Special) for the first time today, and it was delicious! And as always, the service was amazing! Shoutout to Nooreldeen (sorry if I spelled the name wrong) and Mustafa. Thank you for the complimentary dessert, it was unexpected!

Food is great, but service NOT. Even with a few patrons in the restaurant. Staff really needs more knowledge of restauranteur etiquette.

Love the ambiance there. They also don't serve alcohol if you're wondering. We got the Muthawama, garlic dip= very garlicy but so good!! Amazing with the hot pita bread! We got the Desert Moon Mixed Grill and chose the hummus as the side. The hummus is huge! The platter itself is huge too! So so good! We got the Mixed chicken and meat shawerma, it came out super late.. so barely touched it since I had the pita bread with the other entree. But it was good and had a hint of curry. The service was quick. This place is yummy

We had an amazing experience at Desert Moon Mediterranean Restaurant in Anaheim! The Chicken Kabob Plate was perfectly grilled, tender, and full of flavor. The Falafel Platter was crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and paired wonderfully with the sauces. To top it off, the Lemon Mint Tea was refreshing and the perfect complement to the meal. Everything was fresh, delicious, and well-seasoned. This place is a must-try, and we're definitely coming back! Great service.
