Mari F.

Absolutely fantastic spot for fresh Greek food! Everything I ordered was great , the meats are fire grilled , tender and perfectly seasoned , everything genuinely had so much flavor the fire feta sauce is incredible !! Good sized portions, the lemon chicken soup is a STAPLE here!! Everything is fresh and great quality !

Outside
Josephine G.

Stopped by to try it out. The place has indoor and outdoor seating. I bought street pita and decided to dine in. It wasn't packed so the service was fast. Anyway, the portion for my street pita was small but it made me satisfied for the meantime. It was okay - it's not something I would crave in the future.

The fish meant that is so hard and sour.
Lawrence D.

I ordered the fish plat, to go. To be honest, I don't how they make the fish so terrible, the meant is so hard un chewable and it's so sour. How did they manage to get any star?

Mix and match plate with fish and chicken, fish is dry and bland, vegetables are from frozen.
Nancy P.

Do not order the fish for the mix and match plate. Fish is dry, unseasoned and tastes old. Vegetables are also not fresh and from frozen. I asked for chicken and fish, and received grilled chicken, instead of kabob style. All in all, you shouldn't go here if you want real Greek food. So disappointed.

BEST PITA IVE HAD Food is as fresh as it is fast Veggies were crisp and well dressed Meat was cooked perfectly Nothing will beat biting in right after they bring the food to your table Ordering delivery would be good but is a disservice to the quality and fresh flavor Give it a try.

Burnt hard as a rock falafel.
MrsKaz K.

I haven't been to Daphnes in awhile. I was surprised that the falafel plate was $18. I got 2 falafel plates for me and my daughter ToGo. When I got home I opened the box and what I got for my $41 was unacceptable. Burnt falafel! Just hard as rocks. Since I live in Thousand Oaks I didn't want to drive all the way back so I will just review here and never eat there again. Buyer beware!!

This was supposed to be a mixed Shawarma plate
Jonathan F.

I payed 26 dollars for a shawarma plate, and there was hardly any food in it. I'll never eat here ever again very very small portions for the money.

CALI PITA sandwich: gyro, fries, zesty feta, tzatziki sauce. It was nothing short of fantastic [$7.79, 5.0 stars]
Randy B.

I liked, then I didn't, now...I like again. 20 some odd years ago, I used to eat at the location in Torrance and now there are 70 locations around California and Arizona. I liked the food, but found I didn't like the experience...Greek food with plastic-ware and paper plates. I found myself not going anymore. Well, update...I'm into it again. I was with my gf, gf mama, and our little doggy. After a stint at Home Depot, we were hangry and needed a place to grub and where we could take our pup-pup. Daphne's fit the bill with it's outdoor patio seating. This location was ultra clean, and had nice bathrooms...a plus. The menu was way improved from how I remembered it. I couldn't resist ordering a CALI PITA sandwich: gyro, fries, zesty feta, tzatziki sauce, chopped tomatoes, red onion. It was nothing short of fantastic, and it was monster-size. [$7.79, 5.0 stars] Mix this with efficient and nice service, and Daphne -- you get a HELL-YEAH.

The menu is straightforward but done exceptionally well, whether you go for the classic beef/lamb…read moredoner, chicken plates, or their wraps, everything tastes clean and high‑quality. The sides (especially the rice and salads) are bright and well-prepared, not an afterthought like at many similar places. It has a fast food vibe with healthier options. Service is fast, friendly, and efficient. The restaurant is clean and comfortable for dine‑in, but they're also great for quick takeout.

Dear gentle reader, Do not approach ordering from Twisted…read moreMeats lightly--for you and your taste buds stand on the brink of something bordering on the transcendent. The vegetables arrive so fresh that even the most resolute vegan might momentarily forgive the unapologetic abundance of beef, lamb, and chicken beneath them. The sauces are lush, indulgent, and impossibly smooth--crafted with a decadence that feels almost improper to describe. The fries? Crisped to perfection on the outside--twice over, it seems--while the interior dissolves into something closer to silk than potato. And then there is the staff: disarmingly kind, effortlessly charismatic, and possessed of a presence that elevates the entire experience. The towering proprietor, all 6'8" of him, greets guests with a smile that borders on euphoric--especially when he places into your hand a perfectly chilled stein of Enegren Valkyrie. The beer selection is not merely good; it is curated with intent and reverence. Each pour feels like a quiet passage to the old country--a place you may not want to leave once you arrive. In short, their meats linger in the mind long after the meal ends. We are fortunate, indeed, that two gentlemen from Deutschland chose to share their craft here. PROST!

This food is so good, it is the standard to be compared with. The only other time I had Persian food this good, was twice. My mom's cooking and another Persian restaurant in San Jose. If you are here you're in good, nay great hands. I know I get too poetic sometimes. But bear with me. Order any of the appetizers, and you will be superbly satisfied. The Naderi Kabob, done medium rare and Albaloo Polo (cherry rice), we're literally delectable. I didn't get a chance to take a picture. Sorry! My bad. The restaurant is at the site of N old Persian restaurant, but completely redone, and redecorated. Staff are professionally trained and service is just excellent. Can't wait to visit this place again. Come for a date, come with family. Update! Update...my second visit in just as many months, and the service and quality remain excellent. This time I tried the combination filet mignon and ground beef kabobs. In a word, Delish! Wait! Is that word? Desert was fresh

I ordered the salmon plate, and it was flavorful and fresh. The hummus was yummy, the side salad was lightly dressed, and the salmon and rice were well flavored and filling. It also comes with a large piece of pita bread. The pricing is comparable to other places serving similarly healthy food. This is close to where my client works and it was a good place to have a casual meeting and get some lunch. There is indoor seating, but it is a tiny space so eating outdoors is more comfortable. There's a Boba spot next-door and Starbucks is right across the parking lot in case the meeting runs long and we need our sugar/caffeine fix!

A manager said he would take our order on his register and manually apply the coupon. We ordered kids pepperoni pizza (requested half cheese/half pepp), 2 Chinese chicken salads with dressing on the side (one sub lettuce for arugula), mezze bowl with chicken thigh, and orange chicken (no green onions) with small rice. Orders were brought out 15-20 minutes later. Orange chicken came out with green onions so the offered to remake it and let us keep the one brought out. Everything came out hot! My kids devoured the orange chicken so it was great that they let us keep the first one bc they were starving and picked out the ones that didn't have green onions. We sat outside in the patio. It was a hot day but the weather was mild under the umbrellas. Servers were attentive and responded to requests like extra napkins and plates as well as extras carrots and salad crunchiest. Single bathrooms are plentiful too. Bonus: We got to see/talk with former manager Mike who was visiting, and Kelly who is a trainer. Neigborly is my top two favorite restaurants that I could eat at weekly, if not more! :)

There was no lobby to really just browse the menu before diving in. The front is trying to sell you things, and there was a greeter pushing menus at us. It was very overwhelming. I ordered a BBQ chicken burger, and that was really tasty. I've never had a chicken patty like this before, and it wasn't dry like I thought it might be. They didn't have a good drink selection at all. It was fancy juices and a small glass bottle of Diet Coke. I would've preferred a big glass of ice water or a fountain Coke Zero. Let's talk about the seating and order pickup. We had to sit inside in an alcove. We had a big group of 6 people, and it was right next to the kitchen. There wasn't much room there. On each table is a QR code to either order or just to claim your table for your order. It's not obvious how to do this. If you forget to connect your table to your order, you will miss your order, and it happened to one of us. Food was good, and people enjoyed it. There is just too much tech to have lunch. The humans aren't catching the gaps in the system. I was there to spend time with my co-workers and we ended up teaching each other how to "work things"
