    Hidden gem!!!! We were going to another Mediterranean place, but that place did not have seating. So we quickly Yelped and found this place!! We parked in the street. I think they recently opened. There was nobody inside. Beautifully decorated and with a piano up in the window! We picked our table and was immediately served hummus and pita chips. I'm not a hummus person, but this fish was delicious, but the thin and crispy pita chips put the combo over the top! I wanted to try everything so we decided on the chef's combo cuz it had the lamb chop and other meats with rice and pita. Oh... don't forget the side salad that comes on the plate! I usually don't like salad, but these had the Persian cucumbers, tomatoes, and a wonderful dressing! Meats were tender and juicy. Of course the lamb was the best! Don't neglect the rice! Perfectly cooked! Even the roasted jalapeno was on point! We also ordered baba ganoush. Also amazing! Hummus and the baba ganouch is the perfect glue to hold everything together! The lady who served us is precious! She barely spoke English and tried her best to communicate. Well it ended up that she worked in the kitchen. The server called out or something. Absolutely love and admire her effort! That combo was only $24! The baba ganoush, like $5/6? If I went to Georgie's or some other restaurant, it would have been so much more expensive! Trying to take my others friend there to introduce them! Until next time!

    Humus and pita chips for starters Ordered Chef's Combo

    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!!

    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!

    The best Iranian food I've had (bar none) and probably the most delicious meal I've had this year…read morethus far! Raffi's Place was my most anticipated restaurant on my SoCal trip. The soltani kabob was to die for; the flavors in the beef barg and koobideh were so rich and cooked to perfection. The mastery of these dishes was absolutely on display. The mast moosir was a great creamy and savory side dish to complement the entrees. I HAD to get the tahdig (crispy rice) too! I also had a bit of the lamb shank which was really flavorful, tender, and paired perfectly with the baghali polo. The yogurt soda was a bit of an acquired taste for me, but I'm happy to have tried it for the full experience. We finished off our delicious meal with a floral and sweet Persian ice cream wafer sandwich. The portions were enormous, so we left feeling full with leftovers to look forward to! We came on a lively weekday evening. They don't do reservations, but we were warmly greeted and quickly seated with lavash and butter on our table immediately. The restaurant has a beautiful and romantic atmosphere, with hybrid indoor/outdoor courtyard dining. Our waiter was attentive and made us feel very welcomed. I'd give this restaurant more than 5 stars if I could!

Only note for next time: I'll ask for it a little more well-done (just personal preference... I like my chicken with a little extra bite ). The eggplant caviar was solid and a generous portion, but the real standout? The Caesar wrap. It completely lived up to the hype -- bold, flavorful, and honestly addictive. I almost ordered a second one to take home. Also worth mentioning: the son of the owner who took my order was super friendly and had great customer service, even with a long line. He kept things moving while still being engaging, which I appreciated. I was excited to hear they're opening a Studio City location -- I'll definitely be back. This place is a must. Get the Caesar wrap.

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!
