From the moment I walked in, I could already tell this place was going to be soooo good…read more The dining area is spacious, clean, and surprisingly big, with lots of seating available, making it perfect if you're stopping in for a quick meal or planning to sit down and really enjoy your food with multiple people. There's plenty of room to eat comfortably inside without feeling cramped, which I always appreciated, especially during busy hours of the day! Now let's get into the food, because that's where this place truly shines. I ordered the beef kebab plate and it came beautifully presented with fluffy white rice, grilled tomato, and a fresh side salad. The beef kebab itself was juicy, flavorful, and clearly made from real quality meat! The texture, the seasoning, the char on the outside, and the tenderness on the inside all scream fresh, real beef, cooked perfectly. You can taste the quality immediately, this is not processed, mystery meat by any means. It's well-seasoned, grilled just right, and incredibly satisfying. Each bite had that perfect balance of smokiness and savory flavor, and the portion size was generous. The rice was light and fluffy, the grilled tomato added a nice charred saltiness, and the grilled jalapeno added the spice it needed!Everything on the plate worked together really well. This is the kind of meal that leaves you full but happy! Not heavy or greasy. I also have to highlight the hummus and pita bread itself, because they deserve their own moment. The hummus was smooth, creamy, and perfectly seasoned, not overly garlicky or bland like you sometimes get elsewhere. You can tell it's made fresh, the texture was silky and rich, with a well-balanced flavor that didn't overpower the rest of the meal. The pita bread was warm, soft, and fluffy, and thin, perfect for scooping up the hummus without falling apart. Together, they made the perfect starter and really set the tone for the quality of the food overall. Simple, comforting, and done right! To drink, I tried one of their traditional Armenian sodas in the barberry flavor. Which was such a fun and unique touch. It was refreshing, lightly sweet, and paired really well with the savory flavors of the kebab. They also have a great variety of other flavors available. It's clear they put thought into offering drinks that complement their food and reflect their culture, and it's refreshing to see! Another thing worth mentioning is that they also offer catering platters, which is perfect if you're feeding a group or hosting an event. After trying the food myself, I can absolutely see why this would be a great catering option! High-quality meat, generous portions, super affordable, and flavors that will please a crowd. Overall, if you're looking for a place that serves genuinely good kebabs with care and pride, this is it. I'll definitely be back and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place to anyone questioning the quality of their meat, because my experience was nothing but excellent. Thank you so much for having me Friends Kebab!

I've ordered the beef kabob here several times, and it never disappoints. The portion size is…read moregenerous, and the flavor is spot on. The meat is juicy, well-seasoned, and packed with great flavor. They garnish the kabob with a sauce, which adds a unique touch. I'd recommend asking about it beforehand to make sure it suits your taste. The lavash bread was soft and fresh, a perfect complement to the meal. When they first opened, they had a hamburger on the menu. I'm not sure if it's seasonal or discontinued, but it's no longer available. There's plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors, making it a comfortable spot to dine in.

The restaurant is located in a strip mall that has a bunch of parking. The staff were all very kind when I came to pickup and provided many plates and crushed red pepper for our family. We got the Bayern (Combo) pizza and the Spicy BBQ Chicken pizza, and both were so delicious. There were ample toppings on both that were all well-seasoned and cooked. The pizza was also cooked thoroughly, with the crust being a great flavor and consistency. The price was also very reasonable for being in Los Angeles. Overall, Pizza Bayern made for a great, smooth family pizza night, and I look forward to ordering from them again in the future!

Came across this hidden gem after an airport run! My mom was visiting from Colorado and my son said…read more"let's have Armenian food"...so we searched the web and came across this spot! They were busy on a Sunday...which was a good sign. We sat outside and although it was a chilly day, they had heat lamps and complimentary blankets...how awesome is that?! Now for the food: we started with their traditional Lahmajo which was perfect for 3 to share. Then we had the Bread in the stove to dip in the Imanbayadi and wow just wow what a pair! For our main selection we shared the Ostri with their fried potatoes...AMAZING! The potatoes were perfectly crisp and the Ostri was so flavorful but not overbearing. The meat was so tender and the broth was perfect. Everything we ordered was shared by 3 and we still took some leftovers! Great service, quaint spot, good food! We will definitely make the drive from Moorpark here again! So worth it!

Going forward, we'll definitely be ordering from here not just for ourselves, but also for parties and family gatherings at home. We got the platter that feeds 4-6 people, and it was beautifully arranged with such generous portions. There were different types of meats, grilled vegetables, potatoes, plus rice and salad -- everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The meat was especially impressive: juicy, not dry at all, and not overly seasoned so you could really taste the quality. The pricing is amazing for the quality, quantity, and presentation you get. We were honestly very impressed. I just wish they were closer to us -- but it's absolutely worth the drive. Highly recommend
