We tried out three plates and all the sides with it too. It was delicious and came with a lot of pita bread. Overall, this is a great restaurant and the owner/chef makes the ambiance fun.

This Granada Hills location is the flagship location and it was ranked #39 on Yelp's Top 100 Places to Eat for 2018 ( https://blog.yelp.com/news/yelps-top-100-places-to-eat-for-2018/ ). [Parking]: The bakery and restaurant share the same parking lot as Trader's Joe and I had no issue finding an available parking spot on Saturday afternoon. The bakery and restaurant share the same parking lot as Trader Joe's and I had no issue finding an available parking spot on Saturday afternoon. [Atmosphere & service]: There is a mural with two people baking saj bread and there are about half a dozen tables for in-person dining. I placed an in-person order and unfortunately the service was very slow. I eventually got my order after waiting close to 15 minutes despite the lack of customers. [Menu]: Yelp's top highlighted items are Chicken Shawarma, Beef Shawarma, and Spinach Pie. They also have a display case of various baked items. Other items they sell here include Mediterranean specialty pizzas, plates (e.g. lamb gyro), Mediterranean breakfast, and flatbreads. *** Beef Shawarma Wrap (Beef, spread of hummus, fresh tomatoes, onions, and tahini sauce rolled and pressed to a crunchy toast - $18.00): The order came with two wraps. The filling was gooey and messy, but it had a very distinct flavor profile. Not too bad at all. Mini Spinach Pie (Raw spinach mixed with diced onion and sumac herb - 1 piece $2.00): It was not my cup of tea as it tasted very sour. *** A solid 3.5-star for the wrap, but bumped down due to inefficient service.

It was my first time going to a Lebanese restaurant and Hayat's Kitchen was spectacular!…read more Hayat's Kitchen located in the center corner of a mini shopping center on the corner of Vineland Avenue & Burbank Boulevard in North Hollywood. Beautifully shaded outdoor patio with lush green astroturf carpeting. The outdoor seating area is dog friendly. The tables are decorated with beautiful placemats, plates and rolled up silverware. The waiter was friendly, placed a basket of pita bread for the table and helped describe some of the Lebanese dishes for me. Ordered an iced tea, fries and a chicken wrap. Went inside of the restaurant to use the restroom and on my way I saw the amazing desserts station, vintage serving trays & gold coffee pots, some classic framed photos of Lebanon on the walls, the kitchen and the indoor dining area. This was an amazing lunch and will come back to try more of the delicious food!

We really loved everything except the pitas. Would have been nice if they were warmed up at least. Everyone was very helpful in the restaurant and we also loved the lemonade with rose water and dessert. They even gave us some ladyfingers on the house. Would definitely return!

Dear Owner, Your…read moreresponse to my review says considerably more about your business than my review ever could. After 19 years, apparently you've decided that the solution to customers not wanting onions is to remove them from everyone's food, leave them listed on the menu, and then insult the first customer who notices. That's certainly one way to run a restaurant. And your comment that I "lowered myself as a Middle Eastern man" because I complained about onions is honestly the most absurd part of your response. I didn't lower myself. I simply expected the food I ordered to contain the ingredients your own menu says it contains. You say that everyone has asked you to remove onions for 19 years. Fine. Then update your menu. This isn't complicated. If onions have supposedly been gone for years, why are they still being advertised as an ingredient? Customers aren't mind readers. And let's address your claim that the chicken was "very moist and delicious." How exactly would you know? You weren't there when I ordered it. You weren't there when I opened the sandwich. You weren't there when I ate it. You weren't even the person working that day. Yet somehow you have enough confidence to tell me what my own food tasted like. That is an impressive level of certainty for someone who wasn't even present. What I actually experienced was dry chicken, lettuce, no onions, a menu that apparently doesn't reflect what your restaurant serves, and an employee who argued with me rather than simply acknowledging the discrepancy. Then, instead of apologizing or explaining why your menu is inaccurate, you came into the comments and attacked the customer. That tells me everything I need to know. And as for the "Middle Eastern" aspect of your response, I find it especially disappointing. Onions aren't some obscure garnish that I'm demanding out of nowhere. They are a foundational ingredient in Middle Eastern cooking. If you've spent 19 years serving Lebanese or Middle Eastern food, you should know that. If your restaurant has evolved into a watered-down, Americanized version of Lebanese food to accommodate customers who don't like traditional ingredients, that's your choice. But own it. Don't pretend the menu says one thing while serving another, and don't insult someone for noticing. You could have simply said, "We no longer include onions, and we apologize that our menu hasn't been updated." Instead, you chose to attack my character, question my identity, and insist that food you didn't taste was delicious. That was a spectacularly poor business decision. So yes, I stand by my review. The missing onion wasn't the real problem. The problem was the dry food, the inaccurate menu, the poor customer service, and an owner who apparently thinks insulting customers is an acceptable substitute for accountability. After reading your response, I'm even more confident that I won't be returning. Nineteen years in business should have taught you how to handle a dissatisfied customer. Apparently, it didn't

We've been going to Furn Saj in Calabasas since they first opened and love that it is closer for us…read morethan the location in Granada Hills. It is definitely one of our favorite local spots. The staff is always incredibly friendly, and we love seeing one of the owners working hard behind the counter - it really shows how much they care about their business and customers. My husband and I hadn't visited since the beginning of the year, so we were pleasantly surprised to see some upgrades during our recent visit. Their dishes are now served on actual plates, complete with beautiful gold-colored silverware. It may seem like a small detail, but it really elevates the dining experience compared to having everything served in paper wrappers. Great decision! The food is consistently delicious, and the restaurant has a large outdoor patio with plenty of space, making it a fantastic location for parties, celebrations, or larger gatherings. We always enjoy our visits and look forward to coming back again soon.

I had a very disappointing experience at this restaurant…read more When I arrived, I observed a kitchen employee lying down on one of the benches and taking a nap in the dining area. This was very unusual and not professional. More concerning, my wife and I ordered a salad, and shortly after eating, both of us developed stomach pain and diarrhea within a few hours. Based on the timing and symptoms, we strongly suspect the food may have been the cause. I contacted the restaurant the next day and spoke with a staff member (name starting with "A"). She took my number and said management would call me back. No one followed up. I called again a few days later, and was told the same thing -- still no response. It has now been about a month with no communication or resolution. Very disappointed with both the food quality and the lack of customer service. I would not recommend.

They've also done a great job evolving with the times, offering plenty of clearly marked vegan options along with choices for other dietary needs, including gluten-free. Everything we ordered was excellent. The grape leaves were fantastic, the eggplant dishes were so flavorful, and the portions were very generous. The foul (bean dish) was delicious, and when we asked if they could add a little extra to it, they were happy to accommodate us. The service was warm, welcoming, and genuinely attentive. And don't skip dessert--the baklava is some of the best we've ever had. I understand they've recently changed how they make it, and the result is outstanding. It's wonderful to see a restaurant that has stood the test of time while continuing to evolve. We can't wait to return and explore more of the menu.
