    Chicken Kabob
    Mike P.

    this is some of the best authentic Mediterranean food in Glendora. I ordered the beef shawarma and chicken kabob plate with seasoned rice, fresh Mediterranean salad, warm pita bread, and their garlic sauce and hummus. Everything was bomb, flavorful, fresh, and cooked perfectly. The beef shawarma was tender and packed flavor, the chicken kabob was juicy with the perfect char, and the garlic sauce took everything to another level. What impressed me just as much as the food was the service. Friendly, welcoming, and genuinely appreciative of their customers. We need to do a better job supporting small businesses like this. Get out of your routine, skip the chains for a night, and go experience some of the best authentic Mediterranean food Glendora has to offer. Thank me later. #GlendoraEats #SupportLocal #MediterraneanFood #BeefShawarma

    Pita comes with combo.

    OPEN UNTIL 11PM!!! If you come home late and don't know what to do but also don't want to get in n out or some fast food... THIS IS THE SPOT! The employee (owner maybe?) who helped us explained thoroughly about the menu and gave us suggestions. We ended up getting chicken shawarma combo and beef shawarma combo because we were hungry but the portion is humongous!!! This place has a shred style of meat (like al pastor in taco stand) and that's what I got but they should have the grilled meat on a sword looking stainless tool. The beef had the slight lamb-ish flavor which I like and the garlic spread wasn't too strong so I could smother everywhere. The salad was also very very good. I want to learn how to make the dressing. It was insanely good. The restaurant has a small eat in space. 3-4 two persons tables. We took our foods home but if you were to eat inside your food will be served on a wooden tray. I'll be coming back for their Borek and sandwich.

    Waited for almost 20 minutes in line to place order (only 3 in front of us) receipt 6:26 PM, did not get food until 7:23pm, 57 minutes.

    TLDR: 57 minutes from order to actually getting food, kabobs were completely overdone, order was forgotten and 3 orders after us already picked up. Couple ordered right before us finished eating and left before we even saw them working on our order. We have been coming to Damascquino for a few years now. As they have been one of the few places that opened late to midnight since COVID. I've been here enough times to have tried everything on their menu including all versions of their fries, broasted chicken mean, all the skewer and sides and have never been disappointed...until this last trip. We arrived around 6pm right around dinner service so obviously some wait is expected. There was 3 others that was in front of in line placing their orders. The person manning the counter seems to be newer and unfamiliar, we have never seen him before. It took around 20 minutes for him to take the 3 sets of orders in front of us and ours as well. At this point we got our receipt 6:26pm. Dinner service so we expect about 30 minutes of waiting or so, had a chat with one other person that was waiting for his order. Then starting to see one after another get their order. 3 more come in to place their order after us. The couple that ordered right before us is eating in and sat down at one of the tables inside. They get their order of 2 sandwiches and starts eating. Normally this place starts scooping the rice and sides for the next order to be fulfilled as those are prepared in advance, so as soon as the kabobs are done they can finish packing up and complete the order. We see multiple boxes on the counter waiting for the meat so we expect they were working on our order. The order behind us picks up their order. The next one after picked up their order. The 2 ladies that ordered last sat down and was served ....and no boxes were on the the counter indicating they were working on another order. At this point we are about 40 minutes in, so we walk in asking about ours. The guy turns at looks at the grill, then just says 15 minutes. Once we turned around he then starts to put our sides together completely forgetting our order. At this point we are 45 minutes in waiting, and it had better be the best kabobs we ever had. Finally they call us. 7:23pm. 57 minutes since we were rung up. On top of the lining up we are now about 80 minutes since we arrived. We are obviously frustrated but hey since they didn't have any more orders to work on our kabobs should be perfectly grilled right? COMPLETELY OVERCOOKED. It was chewy, dry, and any resemblance of flavor has been cooked to crap. And they just had the excuse of sorry it was dinner time we were busy, treating as if we are idiots and can't obviously tell they forgot our order. Unfortunately I doubt we will be returning again. For the staff: it's ok if it took a while during dinner service. We get it. It's ok if our order slipped thru the cracks. It happens. But what is absolutely not acceptable is lying about it AND completely screw the cooking up considering you have no more active orders besides ours. We would have been okay if you acknowledged the error and cooked our kabobs to perfection, maybe offer us a drink for the wait time as it barely costs you anything. You see 2 guys standing right outside of your store and have completely zero awareness of MAYBE we might still be waiting for our order?

    Ordered half tray of their Tabouleh and was delicious! We will be coming back here for sure and try the other items. The new owners are so sweet! It's a small family business that really care about their customers.

    Fries

    Visited here after visiting a nearby thrift store on a Friday night. We were instantly greeted by Hossam, and his warm and inviting smile. This was our first time here as we never really visit this area. The recommendations of the half & half plate was perfect, and exactly what my fiance and I needed after a long Christmas season. The fresh cucumber tomato salad and chicken were the absolute stars of the show. Such incredible flavors packed into each bite. Moreover, the fries were crispy and not overly oils as what tends to happen with longer French fry baskets. Hossam checked in on us throughout our dining experience and really made the quaint space such a warm environment to share a meal in. Highly reccomend!

    My hiking buddies, the chef and the best shawarma around!

    Stopped by Damasquino's on a whim after a long day of hiking and it hit so good. We had the beef shawarma "sandwich" (get it spicy), that's really a wrap and it was grilled to get it nice and hot. The flavors of the beef and its juices, mixed with the spicy sauce makes my mouth water just writing this. It was so delicious. And the chef was so kind and generous. I'll be back for sure.

    Chicken Shawarma Salad
    Liliana M.

    I got the chicken shawarma salad, I asked for it separately because I wanted to warm up the chicken later if I didn't finish! It's so good! Very flavorful!Everything I've had here has been great! And great customer service. I will definitely be going back and trying all the other items on the menu!

    Half and Half shawarma plate  Chicken kabob plate

    I got the half and half shawarma plate, and my girlfriend got the chicken kabob plate. Portions were more than enough! The owner was extremely kind and described in detail all of the sauces shown. The sesame sauce along with the beef was my favorite. Will definitely be coming again. Please support local businesses and come try this amazing food!

    Lamb and chicken combo plate...enough for 3 people.
    Sam H.

    Finally had dinner here...perfect for carry out or if you are planning a dinner party. Just three tables inside. I ate dinner inside...as I didn't want to bring home the food and have to share...lol The menu is set for lunch or dinner with great selections from sandwiches to combo meals. I had the chicken and lamb shawarma combo, comes on a huge bed of delicious rice. You add two sides...hummus and salad was my selection. The food is sooooo good! This family run business has that wonderful care environment and desire to please...so much food. I will for sure come back again...I want to try the steak.

    Chicken Shawarma Sandwich
    Michelle G.

    Cozy Mediterranean spot. Food was delicious and authentic. Large portions. I tried the chicken shawarma sandwich and it was so good. Their pickles and hot sauces are homemade and very tasty. Service was quick and friendly. We had a great experience.

    I have ordered from here for years. I keep coming back because the quality and service have stayed…read moreconsistent. My husband and I usually order take-out, but on our recent visit, we decided to dine in. We arrived on a Sunday evening (5pm). Parking is shared with other businesses in the plaza. We found one in the shade. The restaurant is small, but they utilize their space well. There are 4 tables and I believe 3 high-top tables as well as outdoor seating. The interior is well-kept and decorated nicely to match the Greek theme. Ordering takes place at the counter, no self-serve kiosk. They have many menu options like sides, gyros, plates, kids menu, family meal, lunch specials, soups, and desserts. My go-to item is their Greek Chicken Pita with Lemon Sauce in place of the tzatziki ($13). I would sometimes order this with a side of fries, but my husband got it in his combo. The reason I order this all the time is because the pita not only tastes amazing, it's also filling! There's grilled chicken, potatoes, pickled onions, greens, and lemon sauce. The pita is thick and has the perfect chew to it. There is so much flavor in every bite! The fries were delicious as well. They were soft on the inside and crisp and seasoned well on the outside. Overall, a great spot for Mediterranean food. I would happily recommend this to anyone!

Their team always greets you with a smile, remembers familiar faces, and genuinely makes you feel welcome and appreciated every time you walk up. Great food, great people, and a consistently great experience. see you soon!

    My parents and I eat at this restaurant often, we love the food! It's unfortunate that last night,…read morewe received pretty terrible service. I know the World Cup game was on last night, so the woman who was taking orders at the front was a bit distracted - I get it. I just don't think it's fair that I accept the type of service I received last night just because the game was on. It is totally possible to watch the game AND do your job...just not for the employees last night. My parents ordered the chicken and fries plate, they always get that. They put their entire order to go, when they didn't order it to go. My parents kept saying "why did I pay this much to put my own meal together?" About 25 minutes passed by and my order, the feta fries, was not out. I went up to check on my order and the woman working said "sorry he forgot to make it." And I replied, "my family finished their meal already". She said "do you not want it anymore? He's almost done." So I waited another 5 minutes (I guess he wasn't almost done...) and my order was ready. No apology. Also how do you forget to cook a meal when it's literally your task? While I was waiting for my food, there wasn't a single person in line, and the woman who ordered shortly after me got her food right away. While my family sat there and waited for me to finish my meal (cause they already finished their's) the same woman who took my order and didn't apologize for the kitchen staff forgetting to cook food, went over to smog city to grab a seltzer and Micheladas for her and the other guys working. It is really unprofessional to be drinking on the job. I'm really disappointed by this whole experience because my family and I really like this place. After that bad experience, we won't be eating here again. I hope management addresses this with their staff. It's also a huge safety hazard to have your kitchen staff drink while working, especially if they are working with knives and fryers. Yikes.

Disclosure: I've enjoyed Mediterranean cuisine ever since I attended elementary school on the UCLA campus in the early '80s and would get after-school Falafels or Shawarma wraps at the eponymous Falafel King in Westwood Village. Suitably armed with 40-pls yrs of dining experience amid the vast Syrian/Lebanese diaspora, what's a common complaint that grouchy naysayers may wanna level at Mediterranean fare? "Ohh, but all they serve are chicken/beef shawarma, falafel balls and lamb gyros! Not enough varieties of protein!!" [I've fielded this complaint from my grown kids for a few years now] Well- Leave it to your enterprising and innovative Uncle Omar to solve that complaint!!! These new brisket wraps are a wondrous hybrid of Mediterranean housing (the flaky but firm Shrek wrap) and All American (B-R-I-S-K-E-T!!) filling. The caliber of the brisket is top notch. Pull apart tendrils of low and slow cooked beef, sumptuously moist but not overly wet. Well seasoned but not deluged in 'cue sauce that obscures the unctuous beefy flavor... Commingle the brisket, lovingly slow cooked for sixteen hours, with diced onions, succulent tomatoes, Persian pickles and their strong-as-a-Rocky-Balboa haymaker garlic sauce...and you've got yourself a crave-worthy, eminently edible new addition to the Family! The ambiance at Abu Omar remains nonpareil. Luminously clean prep area openly visible so the OCDs among us can see their meal lovingly prepared; Sunburnt burgundy brick walls offset by striking Route 66 imagery; Floors so clean you COULD probably get away w/ the "5 second its still edible" rule we usta summon as kids. The service etiquette of Owner Wissam Shloul and his small but devoted staff is exemplary. Great food, meticulously fabricated while you wait. Pro Tip- Need your Mediterranean fix late at night? Fuggetabout "banker's hours," Abu Omar keeps hospital or casino hours! They're open til 1am, nightly. My meal was $19.01 with taxes.
