    Pre-ordered for pick on the way home from work. Made it just right before closing. They were very nice and asked right away if we needed help. Got a baklava as well the triangle one. I enjoyed the food. Was able to substitute a side for more rice at no extra charge,appreciate that. I got a side of recd cabbage which I Loved with the pita. They gave us a whole pita per person plus extra again appreciate it you can never have too much pita bread. Rice did need a little more flavor but the meats had flavor so it went well together. Salad dressing went to the bottom I added a bit of one I made and was perfect. Glad I finally got to try this spot after living here so long. Will be back again.

    I was in Montebello & I needed to grab something fast. Food is made to order & services is fair. Place is clean overall. If you're looking for a healthy & low fat meal definitely go this route. I ordered a number six, which is the chicken kebab plate. Taste was solid. You may need to add some garlic sauce to enhance the overall flavor. Give them a try.

    Tasty Mediterranean food in an unsuspecting part of LA! Very friendly and hardworking owners/employees. Went above and beyond. Can't stress enough how welcoming and kind the staff was. Falafel was delicious as was the rice pilaf. Restaurant is quaint but welcoming. Really loved the sign on the wall. :)

    The good: Delicious lamb chops $17.99, not gamey at all. Super nice female cashier. Health rating is an A. Been here many times over the years. Def love their food. The reasons I gave 4 stars: 3.5% credit card fee. Altho there's a sign saying 3% fee, but the receipt came out to be 3.5%. Also, when it's 90 degrees outside and they don't turn a/c on, I have no faith in their food safety. It was really hot inside. I stopped going to all restaurants that don't turn a/c on in the summer. I'll visit when it's winter. Small parking lot with small spaces. Get here early. No street parking due to construction and lane closure.

    Came here tonight for the first time. My meal (chicken plate) was ok. I didn't have much expectation but enjoyed it just the same. The portions are nice and large, and I esp loved the rice which has a nice flavor. Just don't look at the kitchen (looks super dirty in the back), and you're good. My only wish as a sit in customer is that they would close the front door.... We were shivering as we ate our meal. My boyfriend loves this place, but I found zankou down the street, substantially better, esp as my chicken was dry. Not bad, but can't say I'd come out of my way to eat here.

    Best in all of LA. A+ all around. Chicken, beef and lamb all the best. You can't compare to Zankou. Zankou is trash compared to Ani's.

    Walked in and i didn't recognize any of the people working there...Is this place under new management?

    Not that I know of. Been going there for more than a year and it's the same staff.

The food was tasteless, the chicken was undercooked, and the tomatoes in the garden salad tasted spoiled. The garlic sauce was sour and tasted nothing like the garlic sauce I'm used to from Zankou. The turnips also had a very funky taste. I've been to several Zankou locations, and unfortunately, this privately owned location was nothing like the others I've experienced. If you're craving Zankou, I would recommend making the extra drive to one of the other locations. It's worth it.

I had the chicken lula plate; incredibly flavorful and excellent portion size. The tomato/cucumber/feta salad was great, and the hummus and garlic sauce were delicious too. There were a few things that are leading me to give 4 stars instead of 5. There were 6 of us, and we arrived around 11:30am - we were the only people until close to noon. So we were all surprised it took almost 30 min to get our lunch. One of the orders got mixed up, and we were also told we'd get complementary garlic sauce and hummus but we're still charged for it. It was also a *very* hot and humid day in SoCal - there was even a thunderstorm while we were there - and the little restaurant was getting so hot. Can't imagine how the chefs were dealing with the heat. Anyways, ultimately we really did enjoy this restaurant and all agreed we would definitely be ordering from here again as take-out place when we have work lunches but may not have time to all go out to eat.

The fact that they open at 10:00 AM is a huge plus compared to other local spots that don't open until 11:00. I ordered the Chicken Kabob ($19.99) via DoorDash. The order arrived exactly as advertised, and I appreciated that they included utensils, which is becoming a rarity these days. The meal includes two skewers of chicken with two sides; I chose rice and hummus. It would be great if they offered an option to add a side salad, as that was missing from the menu. Regarding the food, the chicken was well-seasoned, and the pita was served warm and soft. The garlic sauce was solid, and the rice was nice and moist--even with the addition of noodles, which was a unique touch I didn't mind. The hummus was a bit oily, likely from the travel, but the flavor was still good. My only real complaint was the peppers on the kabob; they didn't taste fresh and had an unpleasant burnt flavor. Overall, it was a solid meal and a good reminder not to judge a book by its cover. I'd definitely be open to ordering from here again.

Two fountain drinks Most of the people got to-go at this restaurant, so it was pretty empty when we dined in; however, they were very busy because they had so many to-go orders. Our food came in about 15 minutes later. Our orders also came with pita bread and yogurt. The pita bread was soft and perfect to dip in the Greek yogurt. I liked my beef Kabob; it was very flavorful. But the meat quality of beef and chicken was not very tender; they were a bit chewy. The Kafta was a Mediterranean dish consisting of ground meat; this one was ground beef. It was not bad. The fries and rice were also good. Make sure to order your food earlier because you may need to wait for a while. The service was friendly. The cashier was very helpful; she helped us to refill our drinks and also followed up on my fries that they forgot earlier.

I drizzled both on the kabobs and rice and everything blended perfectly. The salmon was seasoned so well and was so tender! It was perfectly cooked because it retained the softness salmon needs.
