    Humus and pita chips for starters Ordered Chef's Combo
    Harout K.

    The starter's humus, without ordering is very tasty and the pita chips. Nice relaxing crisp music in the background that soothes you. Chef's Special is delicious Piano for live music

    Filet mignon, chicken and lamb!

    I found this place by accident, and I'm so glad I did. At first I was a little hesitant because the restaurant was fairly empty, so I read some reviews while I waited. They all said the food was great and they were absolutely right. The flavors were fantastic and everything was perfectly cooked, not overdone at all. I have to give a big thumbs‑up to the chef; the food was that good. I truly recommend this place, especially since they just opened not too long ago. It would be great to get the word out so they can start drawing in the crowd they deserve.

    Chef's Combo Plate and  Beef Shawarma Plate

    My wife and i got here at around 4pm and were immediately seated. The waitress was very attentive and well informed about the menu. The ambiance in the restaurant was very calm, calm piano music filled the dining room and really allowed for calm conversations. Ordered the Chef's combo and the Beef schwarma. Both were delicious but the chef's combo offered more variety, and that house salad that the plates come with, was incredibly refreshing.

    This place is a delight. I 100% recommend it! The food is fresh and deliciously cooked, the staff is extremely friendly, and there's usually little to no wait to get a table

    Everything exceeded our expectations. The portions were generous and everything tasted fantastic. Thanks for a lovely meal!

    My wife wanted a chicken wrap for dinner tonight. I found Asteria, a quaint restaurant away from the traffic and people of downtown Glendale. Located on the corner of Pacific and Palm, this restaurant has the look and feel of a family restaurant serving Mediterranean style food. I ordered a chicken wrap for my wife and a falafel for myself. My wife loves the chicken but did not care for the yogurt sauce. She likes the Greek version that uses Tzatziki sauce. My falafel was good. I liked that they made it with dill pickles. Large wraps for $10. Great value. DJ's rating; 4.35/5.00 Would I come back? Yes.

    This was the hummus appetizer they gave me with the pita chips after I took a bite Yum

    Hidden Gem! I come to Glendale once or twice a month for business and decided to try some of the local restaurants. Well today, I found Asteria restaurant on Pacific Ave. and it did not disappoint. I was greeted by a very kind and polite server who took excellent care of me for the entire meal. I decided to try it because it already had a high rating of 4.8 stars on Yelp, which I truly believe now should be a five 5! When I sat down, they served me a complementary appetizer of hummus and pita chips that was delicious homemade and perfectly seasoned. I decided to try their chicken breast kebab, which was served with salad, rice and tomato and the chicken was cooked to perfection the entire dish was plated beautifully, and best of all I found the prices to be extremely reasonable. The ambience was chill and relaxed and I'd be lying If I didn't tell you I happily cleaned my plate. Asteria is definitely a find I told them I wouldn't change a thing and I look forward to coming back again and again. If you're up in the air and deciding where to go for delicious Mediterranean cuisine, this is your place. Enjoy!!

    Lule Combo Plate
    Emily C.

    So glad I found this place! Food here was so delicious and also there was someone playing piano live - such a lovely dining experience. I ordered the lule combo which was delicious. The meat was packed with flavor and the salad on the side was really fresh. Portion sizes were generous too. Staff was super friendly and welcoming. Would definitely recommend checking it out!

I usually come right before the dinner time crowds so the restaurant is empty most of the time. Today I decided to try their protein bowl which is a menu item only offered during stated hours which i believe is 11am-4pm. The description of the dish sounded up my alley so i decided to give it a try. With the restaurant being empty, this bowl took longer than expected to arrive at my table. The server even said a light hearted joke about the time it took. No biggie to me, at least I know the meat will be piping hot. What arrived at my table was a pleasant surprise. Half brown rice, half kale Caesar salad with one skewer of shish kebab. As seen in the picture the bowl features a sole 3 pieces of beef, with onions and tomatoes between each piece. For the price of $17, I guess this is the standard for today's time. Oh well at least my late lunch will be on the healthier side as for portion size. But the real deal was the meat itself. Usually with beef kebab you tend to find places using filet or flap meat, a more tender cut. This is more enjoyable and packs better flavor. THIS on the other hand was definitely a tougher cut of meat maybe shoulder or top sirloin. I struggled really hard to cut it into pieces, and even harder to chew. After reading other recent reviews, this has been noticed by a decent number of patrons. Unfortunately with being able to find Mediterranean food readily easily in the city of Glendale, I will be more inclined to frequent other restaurants after this experience.

Parking is a bit challenging since it's only street parking, but that's Montrose :P

    The Seasoning Alley Mediterranean restaurant in Montrose…read more showed promise but landed somewhere in the middle. Here are some impressions from our visit earlier today. The restaurant is a casual, clean spot and has a welcoming environment. Service was attentive and friendly. Our salad was fresh and delicious and the meal portions were large and plentiful. Good hearty sized plates but low on taste and quality. Unfortunately, the pita was one of many low points. The pita arrived cold and slightly stiff, not warm and soft as we'd hoped. It lacked the toasty, chewy texture that makes pita so comforting and effective for scooping up dips and bites. Another low point was that our rice was barely warm, almost cold. Not good. The worst part of our meal had to be the hummus. It was almost frozen and tasted as if it was just scooped out of the freezer. Terribly disappointing. Our Chicken Kabob had a tender interior with a nicely charred exterior. The spices and marinade showed potential, but the overall flavor profile didn't quite soar beyond the ordinary. Wouldn't call it standout, yet it wasn't bad. It was just barely okay. The falafel tasted fresh, but the exterior could have used a bit more crispness. Interior was moist enough, with chickpea flavor present, though it didn't leave a lasting impression. Our overall impressions were that our meals were just barely okay for a casual dinner, but it didn't move into the "great" category. We were disappointed. We expected better quality. For improvement, heating the pita and rice to perfection and dialing in the falafel crust would elevate the overall experience. A touch more depth in the chicken kabob seasoning or a signature sauce could help distinguish the dishes. If you're in the mood for a low-key Mediterranean option with reliable service, this spot is worth a try. It's a safe bet for an okay meal, with good service and good size portions for a casual night out with friends or family. Considering their prices, for repeat visits, I'd hope to see more consistency across staples like the rice, pita and falafel, and a bolder finish on the kebabs to push the overall rating from "good but not great" to "really good." Pita and rice arrived cold. The Falafel could have been crisper. Chicken kabob flavor could be more distinct. The Hummus was horrible. Next time, I'll pass on this place. Cheers!
