David Y.

This restaurant deserves nothing less than a 5 star review as an LA staple restaurant. Let me explain why: 1. I've been eating at Cafe Bravo since 2000, so that makes me a loyal customer for over 26 years. 2. Throughout the last 26 years, i've witnessed this business relocate, remodel and renovate, but the food quality has never changed. 3. Their chicken kabob plate and beef plate are my go-tos and they are absolutely delicious! Your mouth will know what I mean the minute your order your plate. 4. After growing up in LA my entire life, I've finally moved up north over 10 years ago and everytime I visit LA -- i stop by all the must eat restaurants and Cafe Bravo is definitely included in that list. Take a look at this beautiful spread! For under $15.00

Cafe Bravo will always be my quick bite spot for Mediterranean food. Always consistent. Juicy tender meats. Great service.

Don't waste your money. There was barely any chicken.  Very disappointed. Food was good but the quantity was ridiculous

It tasted fine but there was barely any chicken. I felt like all my money was spent on rice

Stuffed grape leaves, yogurt, and cucumber.

I've been coming to Café Bravo for years, and it has consistently been one of my favorite places to eat. I've never had a bad meal, and the food is always fresh and delicious. The staff is consistently friendly, attentive, and welcoming, and the restaurant is always clean and well maintained. It's refreshing to find a place that has maintained such a high standard over the years. I would absolutely recommend Café Bravo to anyone looking for a great meal and excellent service.

Pork Kabob a La Carte
Ernie S.

first thing I noticed when I walked in was how clean it smelled. veddy nice. restroom was nice too. not busy at the moment but i'm sure it picks up. small shared parking lot but street parking in front is an option. food tasted great other than the pork kebob. not what I envisioned. the cornish game hen is basically chicken from what I gathered-not too different for the price and the sandwhich was a miss. the rice and chicken kebob were perfect though. juicy and broiled just right and the rice was fluffy and perfect. next time cafe bravo.

Chicken Breadt Plate
Chris M.

If it was up to my son, we would eat here seven days a week :) The Chicken Breast Plate is the families go to with everyone enjoing their own sides... I prefer the Himmus and potato salad, wifey the cucumber yogurt and pasta, my daughter double pasta, my son Hummus and pasta. They cook the meats ro order so you only eat freshly cooked, which is always a plus!!! The staff are very friendly and after visiting a bunch they get to know your usual. They can know sell beer and have 2 big screens to watch the games. All you have to do is ask! They do catering for those who are looking to buy for larger groups or home events. If you have never tried thier food than what are you waiting for!!! If you're looking for a great Mediterranean food spot at even greater prices, then stop in and make this your place!!! Prices are super affordable, and the food is full of flavor and made fresh to order.

Bad service, very expensive higher prices. Cold food delivered. I've asked half and half salad and half rice but no rice it was half salad. No napkins and fork. Asked hummus and tomatoes with cucumbers but it was only tomatoes with cucumbers no hummus. Didn't enjoy my food. No sumac either. Very disappointing. All they care about money not a great service. I won't buy again and I will let my friends know too.

Veggie platter. Great! Edit: cabbage salad has NOO flavor or dressing. Wtf lmao
Melineh H.

Cafe Bravo I love you guys! The quality of your food is fantastic and it's always so fresh and hot when I get it. You have spectacular vegetarian options which of course I adore since I don't eat meat. Please can you include more mushrooms in your vegetarian platter? It is normally a staple in vegetarian grilled options so it would be fantastic if you did more mushrooms and less eggplant or zucchini. Thank you very much

We had dinner at the Greek Bistro in Glendale on September 24th. It was large for a bistro with…read moreplenty of tables indoors and a few outdoors. The restaurant was clean and decor was beautiful. George was our server and he was excellent. We were very fortunate to have George as a waiter because we love good food and like to pair it with good wine and George really knew his stuff. George started us on an appetizer he recommended called Grilled Spanish octopus. It was the best octopus I ever tasted full of delicious flavors. He paired that with a white Greek wine called Gavalas Assyrtiko Santorini. This wine opened with a beautiful bouquet of stone fruit that paired perfectly with spices of the octopus and was also delicious on its own. For the entree , George recommended the Moussaka eggplant and the pastitsio that is layered with pasta, sirloin , and bechamel sauce. Both were delicious. George recommended Naoussa Xinomavro red wine. It was delicious. I highly recommend Greek Bistro restaurant and if you like to pair wine with food , hopefully you will be fortunate enough to have George as your server.

TBH this place was one of the choices cause it was closest to us while we ran our demands. After parking in the garage, we gathered our dog and popped in fur lunch. Our server Derrick is memorable, exceptional, patient, knowledgeable, quick, intelligent, and friendly. The place is so amazingly designed. My husband was having a difficult day and Derrick truly had the best people skills navigating us through the menu and the tough day. Truly, after the whole 2020 pandemic thing - dining out has just about lost its shine and charm, but the restaurant's layout and the human experience Derrick brought to us was reminiscent of a time before. My husband felt at ease and even ordered a glass of wine which he took the recommendation with immediacy. He is usually resistant to suggestions too. Highly resistant. So that was even more pivotal to the experience. Our dog was even in the happiest of moods. All around this was therapeutic AND I haven't even go to the food yet. Wow. The FOOD. THE EFFING FOOOOOD!!!! Whatever the cook needs give it. The texture and creaminess plus tanginess of the tzatziki- it was delicious and perfect. The lemon potatoes - they reminded me so much of my grandma's growing up. The lunch special was excellent and truly it's a staple in Los Angeles dining because where else? For sure this is one of my favorites from here on out. My dog, my husband, and myself all satisfied. The day changed entirely after coming here- truly. This is a diamond of a place. Thank you.

If you're looking for a restaurant that serves generous portions, flavorful dishes, and consistently satisfying meals, this is definitely a place worth visiting. One of the things I really appreciate about Raffi's Place is the quality of the food. Everything tastes fresh, well-seasoned, and prepared with care. The kabobs are especially good, with tender, juicy meat that's grilled perfectly and packed with flavor. The chicken kabob, beef kabob, and filet mignon are all excellent choices. The rice is fluffy, the grilled vegetables complement the meat perfectly, and the appetizers are a great way to start your meal. The hummus, shirazi salad, and other traditional sides really bring everything together. Another thing that stands out is the portion sizes. You definitely get your money's worth here, and it's not uncommon to leave with leftovers. It's a great restaurant whether you're coming with family, meeting friends, celebrating a special occasion, or simply craving a good meal. The atmosphere is another reason I enjoy this place. There's a lively, welcoming environment that makes it enjoyable to sit down, relax, and spend time with the people you're dining with. The outdoor seating area is especially nice, and the restaurant has a great balance of casual dining and a more traditional restaurant experience. The service adds to the overall experience, and the restaurant's popularity speaks for itself. It can get pretty busy, especially during peak dining hours, but that's understandable considering how well-known the restaurant is. Overall, Raffi's Place is a Glendale favorite for good reason. Between the delicious food, generous portions, inviting atmosphere, and authentic flavors, it's somewhere I'd confidently recommend to anyone who enjoys Armenian and Mediterranean cuisine. Definitely worth trying!

I totally forgot the name of what I ordered, but it was warm pitas with tomatoes, olives, and feta cheese. I LOVE that they served it with warm pitas, I don't know why not everyone does that. My dish was a simple one, but it's exactly what I wanted and made me super happy. I only ordered water, but it did look like they had a full bar. The place is cute and comfortable. I enjoyed my lunch and suggest you should visit this place! Thank you for reading my review!

Their grilled chicken Caesar wrap is fantastic…read more Crunchy falafel bits and a spicy dressing make it stand out in a city with several very good chicken Caesar wrap choices. Here's how I think the ones I've had stack up.... 1. Mini Kabob. Non traditional dressing but the flavor is well balanced with fresh ingredients and tender chicken thigh meat on a very good tortilla. Slightly pricier than the others but worth it. 2. Ggiata. The best of the more traditional grilled chicken wraps with crunchy croutons inside and an outstanding tortilla. Their traditional Caesar dressing on the side is very good. The Venice location tastes better than the one in Highland Park. 3. Highly Likely (Highland Park). Very good wrap but without any croutons or crunchy elements. Solid tortilla but the dressing on the side isn't as flavorful as the top two. 4. Sweetgreen (Pasadena). Best of the chain restaurants. Good but can be a bit too salty. Their Chicken Cali Club wrap is actually better balanced flavor-wise. The wrap here is smaller but still good. All the above wraps were satisfying and filling with the one from Sweetgreen being the smallest.

While there's some seating in front of the shop, this place seems best suited for to-go orders. You can also order online, and when I tried online ordering recently I found the pickup time to be accurate. You can order a variety of kabob plates, and they also offer a falafel plate along with various sides. What brought me back more recently was their chicken Cesar wrap after reading the positive reviews. I liked the wrap though I wished it had more chicken to balance the romaine lettuce and croutons. It comes with a spicy garlic sauce on the side, but I preferred the standard garlic sauce that was also included with my order. I've consistently found one of the co-owners (who is usually at the front preparing food and interacting with customers) to be a kind presence whenever I'm picking up food, and I'm sure there will not be as long of a gap between orders in the future.
