Okay... FIRST THING'S FIRST. Their hours say open til 5, but really, they STOP SERVING AT 4pm. Not sure why their hours say otherwise. they need to change this, or continue serving til 5. I've been burned multiple times. arriving at 4:30 (sorry, we're closed) and arriving at 3:50 (sorry we're closing)CHANGE YOUR HOURS.other than that....their food IS INCREDIBLE. the chances that I HAVE gotten to eat their food have never disappointed me. everything is flavorful and fresh. their service is a little slow, but they are nice people.HOURS.... PLEASE CHANGE YOUR HOURS.

Ambiance: it's a hidden gem located in a small alley in jewelry district in downtown, amble outdoor seating and indoor tables Service: very friendly and patient with questions, served water and food attentively Food: the kebab house serves Mediterranean food and their speciality here Manti Sini - **** Mediterranean ravioli, interesting presentation and crispy texture, tasted good with garlic yogurt and hot tomato sauce, recommend Price: moderate portions and affordable prices, it costs about $20~$25 per person

Their hours were wrong. Went all the way other here and they were closed even though yelp said they were open. Annoying when businesses do this. Very inconsiderate of them.

Go to spot the best in la!! Little whole in the wall wait is a while and not much service but worth it because the food is just so good

I went there for lunch. Its an interesting layout. I ordered a Lule kebab plate with salad and rice. The order was served very quickly, It was served with bread and hummus. The bread was served warm but oddly a bit dry, That was no concern once slathered with the hummus. The hummus was very good. The Lule was very tasty and rice was on point. A pepper is seved to add some spice. I'll have to try their other menu items. The only complaint is that they are not open for dinner.

We initially visited this place during one of our visits to the jewelry district, and now when we're in the area we look forward to our meal here. It's definitely a hidden gem (literally) and the service can be very standoffish, but it's worth the flavors you get. My favorite has been the beef gyro plate that comes with a salad, humus, and rice. The chicken kabobs are also just as good. Their gyro wraps are TO DIE FOR. All in all, we'll continue to visit this place as it never disappoints.

Here's an honest review of the 3 plates I ordered using Uber Eats. I would give this place 3.5 stars but Yelp doesn't do half stars. The Adana / lule kebab was good. The hummus is good.The rice is plain but good.Side salad is good.The doner is bland and slightly dry.The fries are bland, dry, and unseasoned. Some salt would go a long way. Don't get fries here.The tzatziki like side sauce that comes on every plate needs some more salt. The cicak could use salt as well.. The filet was average/ a bit dry.With that being said I would eat the Adana plate again only and try the lahmacun next time around.

Finding anything close to Turkish Doner (shawarma, gyros, you name it) is impossible anywhere outside of Turkey itself. But craving it sooo bad have very few options so decided to order from here.The salad and hummus with the Doner was good; it arrived in about 20 minutes good too. The doner itself is decent. Again nothing close to Istanbul but will take it these days. Lots of rice and very little meat however for 19 bucks delivered, or else would order more frequently. I got full eating almost all the bread and rice. 3.5 stars rounding up to 4. Better portion of meat to rice for the price charged would make it 4-4.5 stars.

I can't believe this vendor came from LA to December nights! The line for their food was the longest, so we decided to try their doner sandwiches since they had the beef cooked on a vertical rotisserie that looked so good.You need to pay first, then get in another line to get your order. We ordered two doner sandwiches, which came with a white sauce and veggies. It was smaller than I expected, but the beef was very flavorful and delicious! I had a craving for fries and initially wanted to get this topped with the beef, but thought it was too expensive ($14) for such a small side item. I'm sure they hiked up the pricing for this event because every other vendor's prices were extremely high as well. I'd still love to check out their restaurant on my next trip to LA though, to see other menu items they have to offer.

At the end of St. Vincent Court is a Turkish restaurant called Sevan Garden Kebab House. It looks like an unassuming place, but the food here is delicious. Everything is made-to-order so do not expect to get your food right away. Expect to wait between 10 to 20 minutes. However, pickup and delivery options are available, but the delivery minimum is $30.I always order one of the kebab meals, which is a lot of food that is easily shared with another person or split into two meals. Get the combination kebab platter if you want to try the different meats. The lamb chops are a solid option as well. The meal comes with salad, hummus, pita bread, and either white rice, bulgur pilaf, or french fries. Choose the bulgur pilaf. It is really good. If you order the iskender kebab, substitute the pita bread that the meat is topped on for french fries instead. Aside from the meals, there are also soups, salads, wraps, and a few other specialty items. There are also seafood and vegetarian options too. The restaurant is open Monday through Saturday from 10 A.M. to 5 P.M. so this is a lunch option rather than a dinner option. If you are dining in, you order at the counter and then sit down. The interior of the restaurant is kept clean and simple, and the owners seem to be huge fans of some Turkish sports team since pictures and newspaper clippings are framed up along one of the walls. Overall, the staff members are pretty nice and helpful. They will explain the menu items and give recommendations if you need help deciding. There are plenty of food options in St. Vincent Court, but take walk down the alley to Sevan Garden. Sevan Garden is at the end of the alley, but it a short alley and therefore a short walk. Enjoy the walk though and the interesting architecture of the buildings too. It is a nice little escape from the hustle and bustle of DTLA, and the Mediterranean diet is supposed to be good for you.
