"Amazing Middle Eastern food. I think it starts with the authentic flame grill. You can smell and taste the char from the chicken. Amazing. Tried lamb, beef and chicken kabob combos and I loved it all. The salad, the garlic sauce, the dressing, rice and meat. I'm only disappointed that I didn't try this place earlier despite passing by for several years now. Location is unassuming. The great reviews are legitimate."
"Came here for lunch buffet 10+ years ago. It was so cheap and delicious. Great indian buffet. I remember the tikki masala and the tandoori chicken.Should come back again, glad they're still open."
Enjoy our house-made soup featuring red lentils infused with cumin, creating a warm and comforting blend of flavors.

"This place has 5 stars for a reason. Awesome service and even better food. It looks like they now have a restaurant on one side with the other being a to go section. This place is a must try if you're in the area."
"I was coming to Riverside for a concert and wanted to grab a bite and found this spot on the way to our destination. It was perfect because we were looking for something healthy, yet fast. We arrived early and had about 40 minutes, so we decided to sit-down to eat rather than take it to-go.I got the chicken kabob sandwich and my brother had one of their plates. Their food is SO delicious and flavorful. It's a pretty decently sized portion as well, so I didn't get hungry later in the night. The food was fast and the service was great! Probably one of the best Mediterranean food I've had in awhile.Definitely check this place out if you're in the area. Great food at an affordable cost!"
"Food: oh my my, went here with my bf and two other people since my friend highly recommended the place, and I was not disappointed at all. Holy moly this is literally the best Pakistani food I've had in my entire freaking life, each dish were just so flavorful and absolutely delicious. We got a whole bunch of dishes which we finished down to the last bite. Crazy tandoori chicken was juicy and came out sizzling hot, baingan bharta was my favorite, so yummy with slight sweet flavor from the eggplant. Aloo gobi potatoes were perfection and great addition to the feast, lamb karahai just melted in my mouth, vegetable biryani was seasoned so well and great pairing to all the curry dishes, onion kulcha was the best naan with onion pieces inside.Price: can be found online but was about 13-18$ for most dish, definitely worth every little cent, although it was my bf's treat heheAmbiance: nice casual restaurant with big space and many tables inside, looks like it can accommodate large groups as well, looks clean inside, located in a mall in ColtonService: the waiter is the son of the owner/chef, he makes little casual banter and jokes here and there, very kind and friendly, responsive to all the requests we madeParking: like I said, restaurant is located in a strip mall, has parking attached with plenty of parking spaces, had no trouble finding a spot"
"The drive from Whittier is so worth the food and service!! Thank you for such delicious food and wonderful ambiance! Keep it up!!!"
"Perfect, tasty and delicious halal place. Highly recommended. Thanks guys keep it up."

First time trying this place, very good customer service. Clean, small family owned restaurant. The menu looks amazing. We went with what we we've eaten elsewhere, kabob. The lamb kabob was not disappointing, 2 skewers packed with deliciousness, so flavorful. Basmati was freshly made answer so aromatic, love that it's such a light rice. Hubby had the chicken, very tender with alot of flavor. The hummus and salad was also fresh, very tasty. We will be back to try other items on the menu!Oh their baklava is homemade so good!!!!

Always love this place! Service is top-notch. Our server asked our desired spice level and we said spicy and he kind of reacted in a way that made us question our decision, so we bumped back down to medium. He offered to bring the spice separately so we could manage it ourselves. We ended up dumping it into the lamb vindaloo and it was incredible. We told him we were able to handle the heat and he was impressed! It was busy but not overly so and they have nice sized tables for dining in. Always enjoy a refreshing mango lassi too! We always enjoy ourselves here! Thanks, Koyla!

I highly recommend getting creative with your selections, as the range of options are impressive. From vibrant salads to hearty entrees, there's something for everyone. The combo dish was a symphony of flavors and textures that truly showcased the restaurant's commitment to quality.While I appreciated the effort to provide bottled water, I found it a bit of a turn-off for an otherwise wonderful dining experience. Nonetheless the exceptional tea brought the experience up a notch. I couldn't get enough of it - whether it's the unique blend or the charming teapot it's served in, it's simply irresistible.In summary, this place is a fantastic spot for anyone looking to explore the delightful world of Mediterranean cuisine. The friendly staff, inviting atmosphere, and delicious food make it a must-visit. Just be prepared to indulge in more tea or coffee than you ever thought possible!

While visiting friends in Jurupa Valley, we discovered Sam's Pita and Kabob through Yelp with an impressive 4.9 stars rating. Eager to experience what made this establishment so highly rated, we decided to give it a try. Upon arriving, we were promptly seated in the spacious dining area. The staff quickly provided menus and water, setting a positive tone for our meal. After reviewing the menu, we decided to order the following dishes:Family Size Kabab Tray ($72.99) - This tray includes 4 chicken, 2 Kefta, and 2 lamb kebab skewers, as recommended by the owner. It comes with rice, hummus, salad, pita bread, Tzatziki, and garlic dips, comfortably serving 4-5 people. The lamb kebabs were delicious, especially when paired with the dipping sauces and homemade chili sauce. All the kebabs were cooked to perfection without any charring. The chili sauce is a must-try for spicy food lovers, enhancing the flavors of both the meat and rice. The Tzatziki and garlic sauces were outstanding, complementing the meat and pita bread along with the hummus.Lentil Soup ($6.99) - This soup was one of the best lentil soups I've ever had. It had a perfect consistency--not too pasty--leaving you wanting a second serving.Baklava Pistachio ($3.99) - The texture and taste were nice, making for a good dessert option.Baklava Walnut and Dates ($3.99) - This dessert was decent, albeit a bit too sweet for my taste.Italian Cream Cake ($8.99) - This cake was quite good, offering a unique dessert experience beyond the usual tiramisu.Turkish Coffee - Served in a specialized small cup, this coffee was very interesting and paired well with the sweets.The service was excellent, with the owners and servers being very friendly and welcoming. We had a great conversation with the owner, who is extremely hospitable. The family, originally from Lebanon, used to own an American restaurant there before starting this kabob restaurant in America.This is a 100% legit and tasty choice for kabobs. We are definitely coming back and will be recommending Sam's Pita and Kabob to our friends. The combination of exceptional food and outstanding service truly justifies the high rating.

1st time here, but it won't be the last time!This place is awesome! We ordered the "Crazy Tandoori Chicken" and it's delicious! I highly recommend this! So good! As a vegetable special we got the Palak Paneer, also very good!As an extra, we were given Green Chutney, which is like a sauce. Combine that with the chicken or whatever we ate and it just brought the flavors out. This is a must. last, but not least we checked-in on Yelp and claimed the free Mango Lassi, which technically is only avail with a lunch special, but they still were generous enough to honor. It was the perfect way to end the meal as a dessert. On top of all the delicious food, enough can't be said of the great customer service provided by one of the owners, whose name is Fisan. Such a friendly, courteous and helpful guy! He elevated our dining experience and made it better!The restaurant itself was nice and clean, & open set up. The food and service is definitely worth giving this place a try. You will not be disappointed. Highly recommend!

Th BEST Mediterranean food in Corona. The food is always fresh, consistent and delicious! It is a bit pricey, but it is most definitely worth it. Our favs are the filet mignon shish kabob plate, beef koobideh, hummus, and house salad. The house salad is too diee foor, especially with their sauce. I recommend calling in first then picking up because they do make everything fresh, it does take some time! But other than that, no other Mediterranean food near by can compare!

My wife and I are new to the area and we were looking for a small local business to support and get some delicious late night eats. We popped in to Nice Guys Burgers and taken our order and had our food within 10-12 minutes. I watched them put fresh patties on the grill, and drop fresh fries for every order. And that's exactly how it tasted: FRESH! Tried and true whole in the wall spot with cans of soda in the cooler. The burger was well seasoned, and their burger sauce was really solid-- complemented the burger super well. Buns were soft and their cheese melty. Michelin may need to get Michelin's attention. Not sure if they've got a star or rec but they should at least be in the conversation They were fast and friendly. My wife's and I new late night spot.

Located inside the Victoria gardens food hall by the north covered parking structure on Main Street. A fast one stop shop to please everyone's tastebuds. From the main entrance walk straight back and it'll be to the right side. Friendly service! At the time we were first in line.. after we ordered there were three more people behind us ready to order. The staff was only one person so she was hustling to get orders prepared. Our food didn't take too long. It had a nice flavor to it. Unique spices to biriani very tasty. My meal came with a side salad which added a perfect balance to my dish. I would definitely come back to try more of their menu. Plenty of indoor seating areas for large groups. Would definitely recommend for cheaper eats, on the go or where little ones can have some extra room to roam.

"Vito's Italian Pizza serves up a 100% HALAL menu. They have pizzas, wings, salads, and 2 types of desserts. I tried their meat head pizza and an order of their cannolis.Meat Head Pizza ($28 - XL size) - This is a 16" pie with pepperoni, beef sausage, meatballs, turkey ham, and ground beef. The crust was slightly thinner than most pizza place, which I appreciate for the lower carb factor. However taste wise, it was nothing out of the ordinary, tasted similar to the pizza dough recipe I make using Bobby Flays recipe. I did appreciate that 5 meats were utilized, but unfortunately I could only taste 2 meats, the pepperoni and ground beef. I couldn't really taste the other meats as I could at other halal pizza shops.Cannolis ($6) - A single order consists of 3. The outer shell was on the harder side and the cream inside was ok. I thought these were just average in taste.Overall I'm glad to see that there is another halal pizza option and the pricing is almost $10 cheaper than Big Als. However I think they need make their meat toppings stand out instead of tasting similar."
"Fresh healthy food served hot and yummy. Small kitchen type restaurant that is clean and comfortable. Staff is friendly and efficient. Great place for Thai food."
"Excellent food at Halal Guys! We are trying this Halal Guys for the first time located at the University Village and the entire experience was excellent. Great food, generous portions, friendly and efficient customer service, coupled with a nice clean dining area.., everything was seamless and on point. We opted for the Chicken Platter with all the fixings and it was DELISH! The food was flavorful, not greasy, and tasted fresh and clean... we are super happy and will definitely be back soon!!By the way, their Baklava is also very good. :)"
"Grand opening of this location was about a month ago. Had to give it a go. Menu is diverse and crowd pleasing for all stomach types. Very bright and welcoming atmosphere. Big screen to watch the games. A few standard sized tables inside and out. Good amount of foot traffic for orders while we were waiting always a great sign. Soda fountain is a little hidden on the right side hallway just past the order counter. Staff was diligent in their service, cooking and cleaning. Order arrived in a timely manner. Lamb and Falafel gyros, chicken sandwich and Mac & cheese bites. Really enjoyed our selections. Would definitely come back to try more of their menu."
"Entered the place roughly around 1:00pm on a Friday. It's basically you order at the counter and get your own canned drink in the ref.The place has roughly 4-5 tables x 4 seats per. So roughly 20-25 could fit. So it's small and definitely just for quick bites. When I arrived almost all the tables are occupied. I ordered to go, and got their lunch special which had a wrap, either beef or chicken, fries, and a soft drink. I also got a side order of falafel. 6 pcs for 5 dollars with tahini sauce.The service was quick and prompt. I saw the cashier / (which seemed to me as the owner) got my order, then went to cook the falafel I ordered. While the other staff, assembled all the other orders...Got my order quick and checked out the items on the way home. The falafel was wayyy flavorful compared to other places. It had the right texture. On the other hand, the tahini sauce was a little watered down. It was good that this was placed in a foiled line bag. The chicken shawarma was pretty good. I was actually surprised that they didn't serve garlic sauce on the side as some places would.... but after a few bites, I understood. It was already incorporated in the shawarma. The chicken was moist and flavorful. According to my middle eastern friends, this was extremely similar to the ones they have back at home. They all like it too. Unfortunately, the fries were meh. You can skip ordering it. If it comes with the meal, that would be fine, otherwise. It's a skip for me. Would i be back, I will. :)Good food.Only problem is the traffic in the area.Also... lunch special is 11-3pm it has a wrap, fries and drinks. Pretty good deal if you ask me."
"Such a hidden gem inside the Corona Marketplace plaza off the 15. Our business is in the same plaza but it was my first time trying the food here a few weeks ago. Even though they sell Bangladeshi food, they also offer burgers and tacos which is interesting. We stuck with the Bangladeshi food and ordered their chicken biryani and chicken curry. Both were delicious. Loved the buttery rice that came with the chicken biryani and the roti was super tasty with the curry. The curry is served a la carte so you either want to add roti or a side of rice. It's not a full service restaurant - you order up front and they bring you your food but the workers are friendly. We'll definitely frequent this place since it's so close by."
"Shout out to the Homie Alex solid jente for the food highly recommend I'll be back Big portions and food is cooked well and not over done like other trucks"
"I must declare that this spot has some of the best dishes you can get when you have a chicken craving. Do not miss out on the bowls, hearty, packed full of deliciousness and are worth the price. The seating are comfy enough for you to enjoy your food and their are charging plus all over so you can grub while watching your favorite show on your phone. The staff were friendly and can answer any questions on the spot. This is a must try while you're in the area. Last bust not least.... Get the sauces, mix and drip it'll send your taste buds on a new trip."
"2nd to review. Sweet! Glad to have a middle eastern option at the Tyler Mall. It's been shown that the Mediterranean diet can help you live longer. Just sayin'"
"Orders food to be delivered! I must say I was surprised at the freshness of food upon delivery. Food was separated accordingly and STILL fresh!! Thank you thank you thank youuu for considering the travel time and delivery of your perfectly portioned food and great lunch specials! Even online for delivery."
"Great place to go, but don't expect fast service.The food was great! The people were nice. If you want some great Mediterranean cuisine, this is one good place to go to. The restaurant is a nice place to dine, as it was quiet with a street view. I would go here again for food as what I ordered and had soothed my hungering body at its core. I absolutely would return instead of dining at a Cava. The food at Cava is more like caca. Elias Pita place is halal, everywhere else is haram. Come to Elias Pita.The speed at which my food was ready was my only complaint. It took about 20 minutes. Otherwise this would be a 5 star review."
