They were in a plaza that shared parking with the Tesla Superchargers. Parking was limited. Came on a weekday night an hour before closing. The waiters were nice and kept us informed of the closing time. Place was pretty empty. We were seated immediately. Place appeared clean. We ordered the Mixed Kabob Platter for $33. The platter came a row of Shish Tawook or chicken, a row of Kefta or beef, and a row of Filet Mignon. All three meats were really good and flavorful. The Shish Tawook was absolutely delicious. Some of the Filet Mignon were pink, others were fully cooked even though we asked for medium. The rice was really good with the meat. Didn't care for the pita bread as we found it cold and flavorless. The dish was enough to feed the both of us. Really enjoyed the food and would could back.

Finally had the opportunity to try Aleppo Kitchen. We started with the fattoush salad which was plentiful, flavorful and delightful. Followed by the Aleppo kibbeh, I am a big fan of kibbeh but sadly this was not my favorite. We then had a mixed grill which was the star of the day. The filet of beef kabob was probably the best I have ever had, seasoned perfectly and oh so tender. The chicken and kefta kabobs didn't disappoint. All in all I'd say we enjoyed Aleppo kitchen and will definitely be back. Edith was our amazing server and the ambiance is authentic Arabic. A classy dinner house motif.

Lunch plate for 18.00
Mister R.

Went in with enough time to get the lunch specials that are over at 2pm. Service quick and excellent... had the Koobideh meat platter. Humus very good, rice light and seasoned/ meat firm and good flavor. Been wanting to try this place behind Angel Stadium for awhile. Only thing maybe to improve is the pita bread was hard .... Not as soft as I like.

Chicken Kabob plate lunch special
Chris G.

The Mediterranean food here is really good I have tried the chicken and steak kabobs both are great it has a lot of flavor very fresh the rice and hummus are good the employees have always been nice the inside has a good amount of seating they also have outside seating .

Cheese rolls

I honestly wish I never tried this place. Reason being is it's some of the best Middle Eastern food I have ever tasted yet one of the worst parking lots I have experienced. Now I will be craving the delicious Aleppo hot sauce knowing I have to brave a nightmare parking lot. It's a teeny tiny parking lot with odd angles and bottlenecks with a surprising amount of restaurants sharing it. Makes zero sense. After circling three times I dropped my wife off and parked across the street risking getting towed. There's a ton of construction so hopefully more parking is on the way. That said, food is outstanding. Service was also perfection. Cuisine here is from Syria so there a lot of interesting dishes I haven't seen before. We started with deep fried spring rolls stuffed with akkawi cheese imported from Syria. Expensive but order it. I ordered the "khashkhash" kabob plate which was 4 grilled kefta kabobs served on a surprisingly spicy sauce of tomatoes and Aleppo peppers. It was served with a mound of buttery rice sprinkled with Aleppo peppers and a cabbage salad. Honestly the best kabops I've ever had. Absolutely loved the flavors. I devoured the whole plate while eyeing the parking lot across the street for tow trucks. Portion could easily be shared. My wife went with the Gyro flatbread. I scoffed saying "this isn't a Greek restaurant" but the joke was on me because I was envious. House made flat bread topped with gyro, tzatziki, pickled onions, tomatoes, feta, sumac, and Aleppo peppers. I took a few bites and retracted my previous scoff. They had a large list of mocktails. I had the Vimto Mojito and my wife had the margarita. Both creative and flavorful. Lastly I tried the "Ashta" for dessert. It's an Aleppo signature per the menu and is a pudding like dessert of clotted cream, pistachio, strawberries, and honey. It's simple yet satisfying. Took me a few bites to acquire the flavor but I loved it more with each bite. My wife didn't care for it. They moved by Angel Stadium from their Brookhurst spot. Great place except the parking. Reservations are odd too. $25 penalty PER PERSON if you miss your reservation. It was definitely motivation to find parking.

The menu has a wide variety of Syrian and Mediterranean dishes that work well for sharing. Our group tried: * Hot Traditional Tea * Mediterranean Dip Trio * Persian Chopped Salad * Chicken Kabob Bowl * Shish Barak (Syrian Ravioli) * Gyro Lavash Wrap * Chicken Shawarma Wrap * Mixed Kabob Platter *Chocolate Mousse Cake Everything was flavorful and well presented. The kabobs were the standout, and the meat was some of the most tender I've had. The dining room is spacious and welcoming, with beautiful decorative touches throughout. Tavin provided awesome service throughout our meal!

Mixed Kabob Platter & Kibbeh
Randi B.

This place is good! I ordered ahead and the hubs picked it up and brought it home for dinner. He had a chicken shawarma bowl and really enjoyed it, said he wants it again. I had the mixed kebab platter, which comes with lots of yummy rice, a mild grilled pepper, grilled onion, a small side of slaw, and three kebabs - chicken, filet mignon, and kefta (ground beef). This does not come with any sauce, I ordered a side of garlic sauce. My plate was very good! I found the garlic sauce to be really mild, I am used to a very pungent garlic sauce. The filet was hands down my favorite, soooo tender! Chicken was really good, kefta was ok. I also ordered us pita bread and the kibbeh appetizer. Their pita is really good! So fluffy and had a great taste. Kibbeh was not my favorite, it was very crunchy, which I am not accustomed to, and the flavor just didn't work for me. We are definitely fans and will be ordering from Aleppo's again.

I had such a great experience at Aleppo's Kitchen! It's a perfect spot for getting together with family and enjoying a variety of Mediterranean dishes. We tried the Shish Tawook, Kefta Kebab, Chicken Shawarma Wrap, Chicken Shawarma, Lemon Chicken Wings, Meat Topped Flatbread, fries, and the sampler appetizer. Everything was flavorful and there was plenty to choose from, making it easy for everyone to find something they enjoy. I would definitely recommend Aleppo's Kitchen if you're looking for delicious Mediterranean food and a great place to gather with family or friends!

Mezze
Lamia A.

This is a cool spot to check out. I love how they sell Turkish coffee sets and goodies you can check out. The food was quite good. We got the fattoush salad with chicken shawarma and lamb kabsa. The meat was tender and fell off the bone. YUM! The service was great and everyone was nice, professional, and kind. I like the ambiance and how they have an outdoor patio just for hooka smoking if that's your thing. Good spot to check out at leash once! Will definitely have to come back!

Mediterranean Dip Trio
Guillermo G.

This restaurant was recommened by a Yelp friend. Now I recommend it to everyone. This was probably my favorite meal during our recent visit to Anaheim. I loved the watermelon and grilled halloumi cheese appetizer and the Mediterranean Dip Trio was a great way to sample their different dips. Their chicken is excellent, juicy and tender. A must try you an't go wrong with, but it you want to try something different I recommend the Mansaf. Service was great. Helpful and friendly. Don't sleep on this place. Put it on your shortlist.

salad
Kayla R.

Aleppo's might actually be my new favorite restaurant. Every single dish on the menu has been phenomenal, I feel so lucky to have this so close to home. Out favorite is obviously the mansaf, it is tender and crafted to perfection. I would have this every single day if i could. Inside is very sophisticated and comfortable, while outside has a beautiful view with bonfire tables that set the vibe for a great meal. The staff is friendly and helpful when submitting orders, so really everything about this place is amazing.

Mocktails (the mint one and the cordial one)
Eileen A.

There are not enough good things to say about Aleppo's Kitchen. Go before an Angel's game or after a day at Disney for quality food. It is pricey but I feel it is warranted. I have dreamt about the mint lemon mocktail whose name is slipping me. Can't wait to come back when next I'm in the area.

Rosa M.

The food is great. I have chicken with a green salad and rice. The server was whatever it didn't get the best service from her. The desserts were not that great either the pistachio ice cream was all right. I think overall the places is pretty pricey and probably wouldn't go back.

They also have sweet treats like mango lassi which is also good and cooling after the spicy food. Being 100% honest, the people make the place even better. Every time I've come in, the people working are so generous and hospitable- offering insight and even samples for their food. The inside is also super nicely decorated and the music is "vibey" too (my bf's exact words).

Premium combo = entree + $10 Entree + premium drink + masala fries I tried the bowl with mild biryani, malai chicken, green (mild) sauce, and guava mango lassi. The bowl already comes with the raita sauce (a yogurt sauce), so I got the green sauce as my choice of sauce after asking the staff for recommendations. The protein portion was super generous and very well-seasoned with their spice. The green sauce was my favorite and everything in the bowl mixed well together. The whole bowl was delicious and it didn't feel heavy, wasn't greasy. The Kashmiri Chai and the guava mango lassi are the most popular drinks, so I decided to try the guava mango lassi. The flavors blended so well. One wasn't more overpowering than the other, and the sweetness level was perfect for me, also, not too much ice. Masala fries So crispy and well-seasoned!! Could be a little less salty. Gulab jamun cheesecake Also asked for recommendations for their cheesecakes and decided to go with this one. It has the fried donut ball in the middle with syrup. It didn't taste too sweet to me, but I also have higher tolerance for sweets. The center has so much of the cheesecake cheese and it was super soft and fluffy. So delicious! The samosas were also great! Crispy and not too oily. I also love that they use compostable takeout containers, including the lid! The interior looks nice and there are a few seats available. There's outdoor shaded tables and seats too. The only downside is that I wish the outdoor seats were a bit cleaner. There is a free parking garage, just make sure to park in the retail spaces. There was enough parking. The staff members are so helpful and very friendly. Can order with a staff member or using their kiosk. HIGHLY recommend!! Would definitely go back!

I've states my favorites above. You cannot find the level of quality and the depth of flavors for authentic Yemeni food, as you would at House of Mandi. The restaurant itself feels like you stepped out of OC into somewhere else. If you are somewhat adventurous, they have these really cool floor seating style tables - if you can find them available! This place is often busy and for good reason, their food is good, like really really good. The staff does a good job keeping up with everyone, and the food comes out relatively quickly even on busy days, given how many people they are serving. The hardest part about this place is the parking. It's to no fault of the restaurant's - it's just a really small shopping center that happens to have a fee popular spots, so it is always packed.

Eventually got the food at 5:58 after arguing with the front desk. One hour after pickup time confirmed. Never doing this again. As I said the food is good but the service is awful! Just DoorDash it if you really want to eat here. Totally worth the delivery cost. I may just skip it. I hate businesses that are dishonest. Just be honest about the pick-up time. My time is just as valuable. Since you didn't value or respect my time you lost a customer.

Food *Hot Cheetos Burrito ($16): 5/5 taste, but way overbuilt. It's nearly double the size of a normal burrito. The Carne Asada is generous and the flavor is solid, but it falls apart as you eat it and the Hot Cheetos go soggy fast. Feels sized for TikTok, not for eating. I would love this more at $7-10 and half the size. *Hot Cheetos Birria Balls, 3pc ($21): 4/5 taste, poor value. this is packed with birria! I don't even typically like birria but this was tasty, but it's one-dimensional and you might get sick of it fast. The Cheetos aren't really adding flavor, but more of a crispy breading on the outside which is nice. *Street Taco ($1.50, Taco Tuesday; normally ~$3): 3/5. Massive portion. This could easily split into two normal-sized tacos, but feels unbalanced and hard to eat as one. Decent value on Tuesdays. *Fish Taco ($2.99, Taco Tuesday; normally $5.99): 2/5. Skip it. Deep-fried but not breaded. Tastes more like grilled fish. It's going for Baja-style without the crispiness that makes a Baja taco work. The Good Vibe: Classic hole-in-the-wall. Good for a quick lunch but not really a sit-down spot. Service: Cashier David was kind and gave solid recommendations. Portions: Everything is huge but that's why it costs more. The Bad Value: The viral items are priced high for what you get, especially the birria balls. That's like $7 per "ball". Execution: This is size over substance most of the time. Several items feel built for TikTok rather than eating experience. Fish taco specifically misses the mark on texture. Would I Return Rating? Probably not. My girlfriend loved the birria balls, so that might pull us back once. But nothing here is a must-return. The Hot Cheetos is a gimmick that doesn't work really. I'd rather buy a bag of Hot Cheetos and dust my own food at home.
