    From the moment I walked in, I could already tell this place was going to be soooo good. 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!

    These are all the items that are available so far I've tried the beef liver and the pork belly phenomenal food. Good service.

    Really good food really good service. The guys are working there are very helpful. The food is delicious. They serve all kinds of different Armenian barbecue with rice or french fries my most favorite one is the beef and the pork belly but I've tried also liver which is really good.

    New family owned restaurant in Sylmar! Prices are reasonable, staff is friendly, restaurant is clean. Humus is good, meat was okay, I feel it needed more seasoning. Maybe I'll try a different meat next time

    Front of restaurant.

    Enjoyed eating at Friends Kabob again and received delicious meals with great service. Spoke with 2 new fellow customers who were saying how much they loved the food and will definitely be back for more. Try this new restaurant! Its a easy place to love!

    Our dinner featured dry meat which was not improved by dipping it in their flavorless, runny hummus.

It was busy during lunch time but worth the wait. I walked in through the back entrance (which faces the street) And then I proceeded to place my order via their kiosk machine. Staff is very kind and attentive. I ordered the chicken shish plate and a Coke. "Juicy, chunks of marinated chicken breast, skewered and grilled to perfection with bold spices" My plate had a beautiful presentation: served with rice, hummus, a grilled tomato, Tzaziki sauce, chunks of marinated chicken , Mediterranean salad, warm pita bread! Easily a 5/5 for me! Generous portions served overall. I sat outside the patio and it was a nice ambiance. They offer "to-go" trays so you can take your left overs home. I also enjoyed their water station; the water was infused with mint, so refreshing! Overall, I had a pleasant experience and look forward to coming back soon.

The bakery and restaurant share the same parking lot as Trader Joe's and I had no issue finding an available parking spot on Saturday afternoon. [Atmosphere & service]: There is a mural with two people baking saj bread and there are about half a dozen tables for in-person dining. I placed an in-person order and unfortunately the service was very slow. I eventually got my order after waiting close to 15 minutes despite the lack of customers. [Menu]: Yelp's top highlighted items are Chicken Shawarma, Beef Shawarma, and Spinach Pie. They also have a display case of various baked items. Other items they sell here include Mediterranean specialty pizzas, plates (e.g. lamb gyro), Mediterranean breakfast, and flatbreads. *** Beef Shawarma Wrap (Beef, spread of hummus, fresh tomatoes, onions, and tahini sauce rolled and pressed to a crunchy toast - $18.00): The order came with two wraps. The filling was gooey and messy, but it had a very distinct flavor profile. Not too bad at all. Mini Spinach Pie (Raw spinach mixed with diced onion and sumac herb - 1 piece $2.00): It was not my cup of tea as it tasted very sour. *** A solid 3.5-star for the wrap, but bumped down due to inefficient service.
