The food here is absolutely incredible! The waitress that helped us was so sweet. Love it here!

We had the loveliest night ever at Dandana cafe yesterday . We were a group of 12 guests celebrating a birthday . The food was super delicious , the service was outstanding , the prices were very reasonable despite the high cost of food everywhere around , the singer Ibrahim and his team were great and went far and beyond to make everyone happy even till after midnight . Thank you Mary for having us at your restaurant yesterday and making sure we're having an amazing unbelievable night . Hamsa and the group read more

Dandana - Beef shawerma plate very delicious - Mediterranean Near Me - Glendora, California

Was here for a show. The food and wait and service was terrible. Took way too long for our orders to arrive, and by long I mean at least over an hour. The food was not worth the wait time either! The beef was definitely not a filet mignon cut like it was advertised and was bland. Plus, some of us got sick the next day from the food! Overall, I wish I had more thumbs so I can give this place 10 thumbs down. read more

We walked in to an empty restaurant and we had to ask the man that kept staring at us if it was even open. He said yes but then Asked how long we would be. I've never been asked that as I entered a restaurant. It was all down hill from there. read more

Words can not express how amazing this restaurant is. The food is amazing! I have tried so many dishes thinking eventually something will miss the mark....NOPE! They nail it every single time! Now that's outstanding/rare in my opinion. I make a habit of ordering hookah whenever i come. The hookahs are all brand new and flavors are on point(sadly I have to mention this because not all hookah spots nail the flavors.. maybe the tobacco will be dry and therefore make you cough or it will taste like blah.. not here)! The workers are super attentive and refill your coals before u ask as well as check on how you're doing(without annoying or pressuring u in anyway(any other ++)) . Ambiance is chill and you can get work done here, hang out with friends or have a party(as I've seen many people have). Speaking of partayyyyss, there is a gorgeous banquet hall inside for any events that anyone can host there! Super cool Overall guys and gals, I rate this place 10 out of 10 . OK... ...........Let's be honest for a second......... It's not easy to get a well deserved and not falsely bought or bribed 10 rating these days , BUT this place deserves it! 10 out of 10! read more

Every thing they have is excellent very good hospitality and food Yes I recommend to try read more

The service is absolutely terrible. We waited to get our drinks & food for 30 minutes and our waiter the food was ok. The ambience was nice and we sat outside. Do not waste your time going here for dinner. The worst part was that I was super hungry and there was no appetizers on the table. This place should go out of business. I am surprised it survived the pandemic. read more

Came here a few weeks ago. Called in to see if they were open, they answered and said yes. Showed up, they was one table so we thought, cool...service should be great. Wrong, server came over and said cook wasn't ready yet, food would be about 45 mins. Ordered beer, only to find out they were expired. Server apologized and removed them from our bill and provided Stella instead which we weren't fans of but at least she tried to make it right. Food was good once it finally came. Wasn't pleased with the wait and overall ambiance. Place needs major updating, quicker and better customer service and it was freezing in there. read more

The worst service and Mediterranean food ever! I ordered a falafel sandwich and menu said it was served on a pita. It took 20 minute...oh did I say me and my husband were the only ones there...when I got my dish it was in a flour tortilla! Really?? My husband finished his lunch before my pita sandwich came to the table. read more

Dandana is my favorite Arabic restaurant in town for its great hospitality and wonderful service. They have the best food for every taste, kibbeh niye and shawarma are my favorite :), the hookah is ready within minutes and very tasty. The parking lot is very close to the entrance which is very convenient. I can't wait to celebrate my daughter sweet 16 this weekend at Dandana and make the best memories with the best Dj Toni. read more

The worst Arabic restaurant and singing programs, their food tastes old and their meat smells rotten.  They add a 30% service fee to the bill.  They say the singing program will start at 10 p.m then begin at 11 p.m. and later.  They say that there will be such and such a singer on this night, but no singer come that night.  Their service are very poor and bad and there is no any respect for the customer.  I do not advise you to visit this place (The Palace ) at all . There are many better and better ones. اسوأ مطعم عربي وبرامج غنائيه أكلهم طعمه قديم وولحومهم رائحتها متعفنه. يضيفوا 30% على الفاتوره رسوم خدمة. يقولوا البرنامج الغنائي سوف يبدأ الساعه 10مساء ويبدأ الساعه 11 ومابعدها. يقولوا سيكون المطرب الفلاني في هذه الليله ولا يأتي أي مطرب تلك الليله. مقابلتهم وخدماتهم سيئه جدا ولا يوجد اي احترام للزبون. لا انصحكم اطلاقا بزيارته. هناك الكتير ارقى وأفضل منه. read more

What amazing food and experience I had at this lovely restaurant. The food was truly amazing and flavored to perfection. The humus was perfect, loved the roasted flavor, the dressing on the tabouli I could bathing in, so good. The kafta kebabs were my favorite. The chicken and filet minion excellent, wish I could have eaten more. There was this pomegranate sauce was from another world. People you really should go dine at this establishment and do the preset menu, you wouldn't be disappointed! read more

Very good experience. Good food good music good service. I will come here again. Thank you for welcoming us to your venue.

This place has very professional service and amazing quality food. The owner is a very respectful, mature, and an understanding man who knows how to run a successful business and make sound decisions. The manager Ali is also very nice as well. I will be coming here much more often and will refer this business to anyone I know who is looking to book an event or just have dinner and enjoy the music and atmosphere and have a fun night out! I give this place 5 stars! The Maza is amazing here and they have a lot of variety. The place is also very clean and elegant especially with all the new upgrades and remodeling! read more

I recently came here with my girlfriend and had the best experience. The new owner is very nice and professional, the food and ambiance is excellent and the service. We have been looking for middle eastern halls to throw our engagement party and I think we found the one. The food was delicious and the servers were very attentive, it is also very affordable compared to the others and outdoor area is newly remodeled. read more

I had the pleasure visiting Dandana today and I was more than pleased!! The atsmosphere is great and beautifully decorated with a cute stage for entertaining. The food was excellent. It was fresh, tasty, and embodied all the great flavors you get from authentic mediterranean food. I was able to enjoy a few appetizers- hummus, mutabal, and grape leaves. For entrees we were able to have the kebab, falafel, and the kefta. Excellent!! You can taste the quality and freshness in all the food. Last but not least, I had the pleasure of meeting the owner Johnny and he wash very friendly, hospitable, and make sure that we received the best service. Overall, this has been a great experience and I would highly recommend this place to anyone frequenting the Glendora area. read more

I've been to this place multiple times throughout the years and since the new ownership, so much has been improved. The new remodel looks fantastic and the food is so delicious! They have shawarma night every Tuesday and most of the nights I've been there, there is live music. It has a very nice environment and the staff is super friendly and welcoming. I actually had my bridal shower there in October and all of my guests were super impressed with the family style catering. The banquet hall is so spacious and beautiful and the booking process was super easy. They work out a customized menu for your event and they have different packages to choose from depending on your budget. read more

I've been coming here for over 10 years and will continue to support this Dandana cafe. The food and hospitality is top notch!

This Mediterranean eatery is in a slightly difficult to locate place in the back of a strip mall opposite corner of a Van's store. I came to this establishment in the afternoon and sampled the chicken and beef shawarma plates. The meats were tasty and well cooked. The pita bread left something to be desired. The rice was tasty if a bit greasy and over cooked. The salad was very good. There is also a large selection of hookah flavors if one is inclined. read more

I received a surprise delivery yesterday, and to my surprise, I realized it was a beef kabob plate delivered to the wrong address! After calling back the restaurant and failed to locate the customer, I decided not to waste any food. I have to say, this meal was very wholesome and flavorful. I will probably come back a second (or first) time :) read more

Dandana - Beef Kabab Plate - Mediterranean Near Me - Glendora, California

Atmosphere: Causal. Banquet room available. Favorite Item: Peach, watermelon and mint hookah, with Hummus. I love Dandana's, Ali and Monique are amazing and ALWAYS helpful. Literally every time I go they pull out the red carpet. They sometimes take music request which is cool, you get to blast your Beyoncé and smoke hookah. Also on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights they have an amazing Arabic band that's fun to dance too. read more

Ordered a chicken shwarma plate and a gyro combo. It was to go so I take that into account, but there were more problems than that. The pita on the gyro was stale and burnt. It also had brown lettuce in it. I had to pick it out. The meat seemed ok, but the sandwich was a mess. I had to reheat the fries cause they were cold and soggy, but that happens a lot with take out. The plate came with rice, hummus and salad. The salad wasn't bad, just really simple. The rice was presented well and looked good but was soggy and had an odd flavor. The hummus wasn't bad, But they do the thing where they put whole Garbanzo beans on top, which I'm not a fan of, and they put a lot. The chicken was ok, just kind of bland. Halfway through eating it I noticed that there was flatbread beneath the rice and chicken. I liked it, but it was weird, resembled a tortilla more than bread or pita. And completely different than the stale pita on the gyro. Overall I was pretty disappointed. Maybe I'll go back if I'm craving Mediterranean food and nothing else happens to be open. read more

Very relaxed environment for some good food and hookah. The scents are really good (AKA "flavors", for those that smoke hookah), and the food is always spot on. I always get the filet mignon plate; it comes with hummus, salad, rice, and pita bread. I tell myself that I'll eat half, but that never happens. The food is so good that I eat the whole plate. The service is friendly and they play contemporary music but I would say the environment is meant to be very relaxed. It's always a bit awkward when the song ends, so I would recommend that they play instrumental music in the background. read more

Dandana - Filet mignon - Mediterranean Near Me - Glendora, California

The lunch special was Amazing! Perfect place to come grab lunch with friends/family. Great service, definitely recommend!

We came for a girls night meeting and were extra hungry after getting our nails done. We came with an appetite! We got our food, and we started to devour. I ordered the chicken and beef kebabs.. a side of each because I'm still low carb till tonight. The meats were okay. That's my response: "okay." They could've been a lot more juicier. I'm not a fan of dry meat. The flavor was okay too. Nothing that I would come back to again. Definitely was edible though. read more

The food was great, the service was very generous... a little bit of a wait after you order

I have passed this Dandana many time and never thought to stop in. Today I dropped of my daughter at her work and decided to give it a try. I took home apps for the wife and I to try and found them to be flavorful. We looked at the menu and decided immediately that this was our dinner for the night. We are now big fans of Dandana read more

I really enjoy this place. They serve a lot of food with a variety. The quality is great! My favorite appetizer is the roll that has cheese inside it, however, I've tried other food items and I was very happy with the quality of the food. The people and service are also great. They usually have music playing in the background which sets off a great mood. The place looks elegant. The price is reasonable for what you get. I mean you can't expect to pay a small amount anywhere these days. Everything has gone up. With that being said, this place is worth the cost. I'd recommend it! read more

I've coming to this place for the past year or so and they have dropped in quality significantly. I usually order the family meal through their website, but the portions now nearly half the size of what we used to get. The website didn't even receive my order and I had to wait 45 minutes for them to make my food because they are so understaffed. The worker just kept saying "5 more minutes" every time I asked for an update. Also, the chicken kebab wasn't even fully cooked and my family and I felt sick that night. Maybe it is because of their new ownership but I would avoid this place. read more

We came at lunch, it was pretty empty. We checked in-on yelp and received a discount, so that's a plus. The food was ok. The pita bread came to us in a plastic bag that had been microwaved. To me, the flavors were leaning more towards a Mexican food flavor. My favorite was the salad.. mostly the dressing. It was very light, an olive oil with lemon and herbs type of dressing. Sorry for the review but honestly, I've tasted better. read more
