    Vegan bowl
    Tam L.

    I recently discovered CAVA and have been on a mission to find a better option because of the inconsistent service and portions at CAVA. Hummus Way so far has been the answer to finding a much better CAVA. This place looks like it could be a franchise but it's not yet. You get larger portion with quality ingredients. VEGAN friendly and they cook their falafel to order so you're getting the fresher bowel/wraps. I love supporting Mom and Pop places like this. Hope you give it a try.

    Chicken Kabob Plate

    Food and service are exceptional! It's a gem in the neighborhood. We had food catered for a family event and it was a huge hit. Healthy food meets tasty colorful presentation. Because we enjoyed the taste so much we went to their restaurant to have lunch onsite. Tucked away; Quaint little place. Definitely recommend. Super tasty and fresh!

    Great customer service and food! Love the server Carlos he is so friendly and always takes care of us here at hummusway!

    I came here with a couple of my coworkers and it was our first time here. We came at a good time when it wasn't busy and there were maybe two or three tables occupied. There were a couple customers who came to get takeout and left while we were checking out the various menus. We ordered our food at the register and Carlos bought our plates out to us. Carlos was very kind and explained all of the menu options. You can build your own bowl or wraps or choose from different combinations. Carlos gave us samples of the different types of lemonade, which I found all refreshing. My favorite was the peach drink. I got the number one combo of chicken and ground sirloin kebab. Honestly, for the price point, I thought it was on the higher end for quick service type of food. Next time, I think I'll try the bowls or wrap which is a little more work lunch friendly for my wallet. As for the taste, my favorite part of my entrée was the hummus, and the salad was good. The beef was flavorful, but the texture was a little different than I'm used to but not in a bad way. The chicken was all right and seasoned nicely. The portions seemed a little small for the price. My coworkers said they liked their meals and we would come back. The restaurant had a nice atmosphere and it was clean and inviting. Carlos was very engaging as there were no other customers that came after us right away. He was so kind and friendly and gave us coupons to return. We will put Hummus Way on our lunch rotation and bring our other coworkers.

    Chicken and ground sirloin kabob.  Chicken wrap.    Clean food and hospitable place. Really loved the food.

    It was my first time here and it's officially my new favorite Mediterranean spot! I created my own bowl with paprika and turmeric shawarma and a handful of fresh toppings. There's so much variety of protein and toppings to choose from and they give generous portions too. It also came with fresh warm pita on the side. The worker was super friendly and genuine and this place deserves more recognition! There's adequate seating inside and the interior remind me of an aquarium! Highly recommend this spot!

    The food here is AHHHMAZING! I can't believe it took us so long to come here! The portions are huge too. We like to share a kabab plate and add an extra skewer. It's easily become our new favorite Mediterranean spot. The service is also incredible! The owner is so attentive, and welcoming - he couldn't have been friendlier. It's a local gem for sure!

    My sister and I live nearby and happened to see it while driving. We were craving Mediterranean one day and remembered this place. The service was amazing. Portion sizes were worth the price. Everything was fresh and flavorful. This place will definitely become part of our local favorites.

    Great place with great service and authentic food. Came here for lunch and got the bowl with Shawarma. It was really good and worth the price. They have so many spice and flavor options, it may get a little confusing but the staff were so good with recs. Give it a try if you're in the area.

    Chicken bowl - the fried garbanzo shells were a delight
    Lindy K.

    The freshness and quantity at Hummus Way is hard to beat. The roasted eggplant was better than that of my usual go-to (CAVA) and the fried garbanzo garnish was a genuine surprise. I didn't know garbanzo beans could taste light and airy. Carlos provided me expert service with efficiency and care. He even offered me a coupon of a free drink with entree. Though I don't like lemonade, I will be returning here for a takeout option that ensures I get leftovers for the next day.

    Beautiful presentation, great variety of textures and tasty!!!!  GO FOR IT!
    steve c.

    So glad me and wife came in tonight in Good Friday. I enjoyed meeting and chatting with the 3 kind gentlemen, I can tell they care for their food quality, presentation and customer satisfaction. The platter was not only beautiful but great taste and texture, soooo enjoyable. I would recommend trying this place, it's in a small plaza nearby freeway so the traffic and signs can test your patience, but please know that when you arrive it will be WORTH IT.... enjoy Hummus Way like we did. Thumbs up.

    Byo bowl with falafel and 3 types of hummus
    Christine N.

    Service was fast and friendly. Parking was a breeze. We visited on a Saturday afternoon and the owner was very informative about the menu and their current specials. We opted for a BYO and their grilled fish special. Both were delicious and very filling. We were able to try a variety of hummus flavors and thoroughly enjoyed them all. The lemon artichoke was my favorite. They also had vegan sauces available, too! Will be back to try other items!

    5 s shout out to Carlos good food and service! Highly recommend

    We were in the Tustin area doing some business with Prestige Diamond Jewelry, and on the way home…read morewe decided to stop and grab some food. We ended up at Naan and Kebab, a very casual Persian restaurant. For a place in Tustin and a restaurant that I would honestly describe as pretty average overall, this is the kind of spot that fits the bill if you're just looking for something quick and simple. This is definitely not a Raffi's Place in Glendale or one of those higher-end Persian restaurants where you go expecting a full dining experience. But with that said, it's still okay. If you're just trying to grab something to go and want a decent taste of Persian food without too many expectations, this place isn't too bad. We tried their koobideh kebabs, and those were actually pretty solid. The chicken, on the other hand, was probably around a two-plus star level--nothing particularly memorable. So overall, if you're in the mood for koobideh specifically, this is not a bad option to consider. I'll still give them four stars, mainly because the koobideh was enjoyable enough and the experience, while simple, was acceptable for what it is.

But let me tell you this food was delicious! You can tell the food was made and plates prepared with love and intention. I came with a coworker for lunch, her suggestion and my first time here. She was telling me she came for her favorite rice, the cherry rice. I had never heard of it, but upgraded my order to cherry rice (didn't see it on the menu as cherry rice, may have a specific name I'm not aware of, but I ordered it fine saying cherry rice). I ordered the lunch special, for 18.99 came with chicken kabob and beef, a tomato, and of course the cherry rice. That rice was so delicious and unlike any other type of rice I have ever tasted. It was slightly sweet, and had warm cooked cherries scattered within. SO GOOD!!! Additionally it came with a tray of warm flat bread with butter, a beautiful starter salad, with a simple dressing of oil, lemon, and mint. This was also a unique flavor to my taste buds, but so good! If you like lemon you will love it. The flavors of the entire meal all complimented each other beautifully. If you are in the Tustin area and enjoy Persian food, give this small business a try. Hopefully you will leave like we did, pleasantly satisfied, and planning another lunch date there soon.

Located on 1st in Santa Ana near Tustin, there's a wrought iron fence around the private lot, and the restaurant is open until 9pm most nights. I was surprised nobody was dining in, and except for a woman waiting for her takeout order to be made, I was the only person for most of the visit. I quickly realized the phone rings often, so most business is ordered ahead, with the option to eat there, in the car, or take home. Clearly, for presentation and likely quantity, I recommend eating there. The host is a nice older gentleman who literally does it all, and is so good it hardly seems like he's working. My Shish kabob plate came out faster than expected, and I was almost as impressed with the salad as the saffron rice and actual kabob, which is tender and amazing by the way. Basically, you pick a drink from the refrigerator, and I let him talk me into trying hummus, and appetizer, which ultimately comes with cut flatbread. His take is less creamy than other restaurants, but the flavors are fresh, without garlic. Don't worry, the salad dressing is a fantastic creamy Italian style. All-in-all, I was enjoying every bite and pretty much ate everything, although I preserved some hummus to eat at home. The price was commiserate with the quality, and I suppose I'll try more when I'm around the area.

Located in a small but busy plaza, HOK is a small, potentially packed restaurant with a few tables outside. About half full mid afternoon on a Saturday, i got a table and quickly made a decision to try the combination plate with a chicken and kubideh kabob, with rice. Next time I'll branch out, but this first sample provided much pleasure and evidence that they can't do anything wrong (except be closed when I'm craving more ;) A few minutes after placing my order the warm flatbread came out with butter. Comparatively, many other Persian restaurants use Lavash sections, so I enjoyed the contrast. The neighboring table of four received their plates one at a time, so I figured the kitchen and grill were probably also fairly constricted like the lobby. Nonetheless, it didn't take long and the generous, colorful portions were a sight to behold! The first thing I noticed was how moist and tender both kabobs were. Not burnt or dry anywhere on either type. That's attributable to the elevated method of grilling, but here the chef has it down to a science. The second observation came later when I didn't feel excessively thirsty, or bloated, ir dehydrated. Some restaurants really brine the meat while marinating, but here it's another level of perfection. Good service and a reasonable price, although the menu prices might be behind current food costs. Still, it was totally worth it. I didn't have a way to keep leftovers in a safe temperature range, so I ate everything. Full, but not stuffed.

I had a hard time hearing the employee, so I politely said, "I'm sorry?" several times because I genuinely couldn't understand what he was asking. Instead of being patient or trying to speak more clearly, he became visibly irritated. His tone became increasingly rude, and he raised his voice at me as if I was the problem. Despite the poor phone connection, I managed to complete my order. At the end of the call, he abruptly said, "It will be ready in 20 minutes," and hung up on me without a "thank you," "goodbye," or even asking if I needed anything else. I've never experienced such unprofessional and disrespectful customer service. The issue was clearly with the phone connection, not with me, yet I was treated as though I was inconveniencing him. The interaction left me so upset that I called back and canceled my order. There are plenty of restaurants that value their customers and know how to treat people with basic courtesy. Unfortunately, this was not one of them. I won't be returning.

We ordered the beef shawarma plate (originally meant to get the wrap, but were charged for the plate instead). At $23, the value just wasn't really there. The portion felt a bit underwhelming, especially since a large part of the plate ends up being rice and hummus rather than a strong focus on the meat itself. The biggest downside for me was the meat quality, which didn't stand out and honestly felt like it could be improved. On top of that, the fact that sauces are charged separately adds to the feeling that everything is nickel-and-dimed a bit. I've heard this place used to have a stronger reputation when it first opened, but based on this visit, it didn't quite live up to that. It wasn't terrible, but it also didn't give me much reason to come back. Overall: decent idea, but needs work on portion size, pricing, and meat quality to really compete in the area.

I'd probably come back on a weeknight and try it out again; hoping that we don't get forgotten about by our first waitress.
