Lentil soup
Michelle L.

One of our absolute favorite spots for Mediterranean food! Let's be real: perfectly cooked, delicious falafel is a 1-in-500 hit, and D'Vine Mediterranean absolutely nails it! The food here is consistently incredible. The lamb chops are hands down some of the best--perfectly cooked, tender, and full of flavor. We also love the lentil soup, spicy potatoes, and tabbouleh. Honestly, everything we order is delicious, and the quality is consistently outstanding. We absolutely love eating here. Amazing food and generous hospitality. D'Vine is a true gem, and we're so happy to have found it. If you love Mediterranean food, do yourself a favor and come here. The lamb chops alone are worth the visit!

bottomless pitas, toasted and fluffy hot inside
Hiroshi S.

Wonderful returning here for lunch: so nice and cool, clean, well-appointed; with such friendly and attentive service! In love with the cauliflower hot mezze, so subtly and nicely spiced. And WTF!?: the falafel hot mezze is so unbelievably fluffy inside the satisfyingly crunchy exterior! My mouth is amazed! The salmon here is something we dream about, so it's wonderful to have its perfection again! The Batata Mediterranean is basically a huge baked potato with a chicken salad on top--my spouse who typically doesn't favor chicken shawarma loves was impressed. Delish. With lots of leftovers to take home and have again tonight!

Rice pudding with pistachio dust + baklava
Mike B.

D'Vine Mediterranean is one of those sleeper Long Beach spots that deserves more attention. We came in Thursday at 630p and had an excellent meal from start to finish. The falafel was brought out complimentary, which was such a nice touch, and it was fresh, crisp, and flavorful. We also shared the fried cauliflower. I had the lamb kabob plate with rice, pita, beets, and mutabal and he had the chicken shawarma plate with beets, hummus and rice-- everything tasted fresh and well seasoned. Service was a major highlight. Our server took great care of us throughout the meal and made the whole experience feel genuinely welcoming rather than transactional. To top it off, they also surprised us with a complimentary dessert, including baklava and a creamy rice pudding with pistachio, which was another very generous touch. D'Vine may not get as much attention as places like Ammatoli or Open Sesame, but it absolutely should be in that conversation. If you're looking for Mediterranean food in Long Beach, especially somewhere a little more under-the-radar with excellent service, don't overlook this place. We'll definitely be back.

Salmon Plate
Coco G.

Visiting my family here today--they ordered takeout from D'vine--and let me say they are aptly named because every bite was divine! I especially appreciated the garlic sauce to add to every bite of chicken kebab, the tabbouleh and the falafel with two sauces: tahini and a spicy sweet red sauce. The falafel was crispy even after the delay of eating takeout. All the meats :chicken kebab, chicken shawarma, lamb chops, and salmon were tender and cooked perfectly. The order was placed the night before and was ready on time as requested. Apparently when you order IN, the plating of the food is beautiful according to my brother. All I know is, I'll definitely order food from them again, because it was excellent!

Interior
Elyse C.

I've been coming here forever, and they honestly never miss. In the past few years they've completely redone their interior - definitely ramping it up in terms of decor and ambiance. It's a great little spot with about 8 tables for you to enjoy your meal in or take it home to go The food is always consistently yummy and good portions for what you're paying. The steak, rice and pita are my top choices when I go in. Don't hesitate to ask for some baklava for dessert too, perfect crisp to sweet ratio. The staff is friendly and welcoming, happy to explain anything on the menu to you if you have questions. Great place!

Accent wall and my family

Went here for an early Sunday dinner with the family after visiting MoLAA and HOLY MOLY, it was incredible. My only regret is that I do not live closer (I've set down roots all the way in San Diego county). My family and I shared cauliflower and mutabel and a complimentary falafel appetizer. Around the table, we ordered individual entrees which included more falafel, chicken kebab, salmon and lamb kebab. My husband has a rather particular palate and he was blown away by everything he tried. I loved trying new-to-me sides like the turshi and potato salad. In addition to the server's patience with us (our party of 5 can be a little much sometimes and tend to hold tables hostage), they were so lovely and provided us with complimentary dessert of rice pudding and baklava. It was all so good. Thank you for the perfect meal to end a fun family day. You had us at Shawarma! TL;DR: the food was so fresh, delicious and flavorful, the restaurant and bathrooms are comfortable and tidy and the service is welcoming and helpful! Note to Owner: D*Vine, please come down to Carlsbad! We're lacking flavor down here and NEED you!

Grape leaves app and falafel app
Jacob D.

I purchased a Clipper voucher via Groupon a while back and although it doesn't expire until August 7th I decided to use it. Tucked away in the Los Altos shopping center, this lil gem can be hard to find if you blink an eye (I am very familiar with the area but have never come across it). We were promptly greeted by our server whom told us to take a seat anywhere. We must have lucked out as there was only one other table occupied but it could be the fact that it was a Monday evening so it was not crowded. As 1st timers here, we informed the server about the Clipper voucher as he was familiar with it. We started off ordering the grape leaves from the cold apps menu. The server also brought us a complimentary serving of their homemade falafel balls. The grape leaves were so soft, chilled (came on a chilled plate with lettuce as garnishment) and tasty! The falafel was also very yummy with sauce drizzled over. Next up we ordered the chicken kabob skewer (1) plate which comes with rice and two sides (we chose Med salad along with hummus). Everything comes out a la carte so our server brought us our hummus, pita, and Med salad on separate plates and then the chicken kabob skewer (minus the skewer) comes out with the rice. Everything was so flavorful and delicious! The chicken was tender and the rice was very tasty and had some different spices added to it. The hummus was to die for as it was very creamy and not how some places prepare it very "waxy" like. Our server also brought us a complimentary dessert consisting of their homemade rice pudding and baklava and both were delish! We spoke with the server and he stated that this place used to be an express in/out restaurant mainly for take out orders and since the new owners took over they made it more appealing for dining in (cute decor and ambience). Prices are not bad either, and they also serve beer and wine. Parking is pretty easy with plenty of spots and not too congested. So happy to have discovered this gem as there have been a couple of Med restaurants that have closed in our hood and the other few remaining are just mediocre or too expensive. This place is definitely worth it!

Inside. Very nice and clean
Ray H.

I must start off saying this place is beautiful inside. I came here today to try the lamb and beef plate with rice, spicy hummus\pita bread and the sumac onions. Everything tasted delicous! The service was one of the best i had at any restaurant. They come to your table with water which is a nice touch. Victor who is one of the staff members here was the best and i loved his attitude and friendliness. He is a wonderful man. They have TV's a bathroom, outside seating which is nice. The meats were very favorful and easy to cut! The onions were seasoned well and the falafel plate was excellent! They have pepsi products here which is a bonus to me. I'm happy i stopped here! Yes, it's soo good i will be back again! Food rating. Lamb\beef plate 9.0\10 Falafel Plate 8.5\10

Beautiful flower wall
Cecilia L.

First time customer and I was highly impressed with how nice the restaurant is, quality of food and costumer service was excellent. Our waitress Allison provided us with the best recommendations and experience. If you enjoy Mediterranean food this is the place to be. Five stars for sure. Will be coming back with the family.

Double protein plate
Monica G.

Great experience from start to finish friendly server, cute ambience, delicious food, ordered double protein plate. It came with two very large sides. Extremely satisfied.

Beef Shawarma Plate Chicken Shawarma Plate
Ana S.

The food, service and drinks were so good! First I started with a cucumber mint, it was very refreshing. Then we got some falafel, also delicious. I ordered the combo plate with the beef and chicken sharwama and my sides were the Mediterranean salad and cucumber yogurt salad. Everything I tried this evening was delicious. The environment was perfect for the occasion. The staff were very attentive.

Rice pudding and Baklava on the house from our wonderful server
Nathalie S.

We came here on a Sunday for lunch and absolutely loved it! Service, cleanliness, price, portion size and quality were all amazing. I had the 2 protein entree with the beef kebab and falafels. The steak was deliciously seasoned and tender (didn't even need a steak knife for it!) The falafels were crispy and good and the spicy hummus, cucumber yogurt, and pita bread it came with were wonderful! My dad tried the Sahara spritz and it was refreshing and yummy. We also had the cauliflower as an appetizer and the rice pudding for dessert and they were so good! Will definitely be coming back!

Trisha D.

We came here for lunch. Beef kebab was not overly seasoned, I actually i can tasted the beef. My husband ordered lamb kebab, cooked perfectly. 2 sides for each order were quite generous and wonderful taste. Rice came the dish is ok, minor issue. Icing on the cake, they have complimentary appetizer and deserts. We definitely will return.

Delicious beet salad, Mediterranean salad, and the most incredible cucumber salad, and pillowy pita bread!

I opted for the panini salmon the first time I visited and it was so fulfilling for lunch that I just passed on dinner. The atmosphere is crowded which explains why the food is so tasty! Our waiter was cheery attentive and blessed the table with a smile every round she made while keeping our meeting uninterrupted. Whoever you are we loved the way you moved in silence and to be honest we didn't even know you were present! For the following day of our conference I went with the Strawberry date salad which included Mixed Greens, Strawberries, Candied Walnuts, Dates, Gorgonzola Cheese and Pomegranate Vinaigrette It was awesome and my peers loved it as well while there was plenty of paid parking we chose the brisk walk from the convention center which was well worth it but a shared ride is always a great option for a group!

They offer flavorful and substantial menu items; however, as advised by friends, the preparation process can be relatively slow, with our two panini sandwiches and appetizer taking approximately thirty minutes to be ready for our pickup. Nonetheless, the quality of the food justified the wait. We ordered the House Specialty Hummus Trio, of which we have leftovers. All three varieties met our expectations, with the edamame hummus particularly standing out to me. Regarding the panini sandwiches (shared between two people) we had the Salmon Brie Panini and the Tofu Pesto Panini. The Salmon Brie Panini was enjoyable, though slightly fishy tasting. The Tofu Pesto Panini distinguished itself through its exceptional flavor, texture, and creativity. Overall, we were pleased with our experience and look forward to returning in the future.

This place seems to use only quality ingredients, as everything always tastes fresh. Order some pita bread, and they'll taste like someone just prepped them before you arrived! The chicken shawarma plate is our favourite order, as it is plenty to feed both my wife and me. It comes with delicious chicken, a small salad, hummus, and pickled vegetables. Everything tastes good! Occasionally, we get the falafel, which is also tasty! The garlic sauce that comes on the entrees here is likely our favourite of all garlic sauces we've tried in other spots. We used to frequent this spot, and I've certainly brought a number of friends and coworkers around to bring joy to all of our bellies. Prices are average, and the service is fast. Although there is only street parking available, you'll likely be able to find parking along Bixby Road or Atlantic Blvd, though I tend to avoid the traffic of Atlantic Blvd. There is plenty of seating within, along with some outside seating if that's your vibe. Ambience is nice, and the place is decorated with Turkish lamps. The food at Taboon does not disappoint! Come through, and support local!

Our server thought he heard my sister order the Lamb Mediterranean Bowl, but she actually ordered the Chicken Mediterranean Bowl. When the lamb bowl arrived, my sister immediately explained that the order was incorrect and that she had requested chicken, not lamb. Instead of simply correcting the mistake, the server argued with us for 5-10 minutes, repeatedly insisting that we had ordered wrong and saying, "You ordered wrong. You cannot returned the plate. The kitchen already cooked it. What is the kitchen going to do with it? Throw it away?" He even suggested that we could buy chicken kabobs separately for $7 ea. At that point, I asked to speak with the manager or owner. The server walked away, then returned, took my sister's plate and brought out the correct chicken plate. Mistakes happen -- we understand that. What was disappointing was the lack of customer service and the arguing instead of simply handling the situation professionally. I have never experienced a server refusing to correct an order and debating with customers over a simple mistake.
