    Turmeric Chicken
    Desiree M.

    Good flavor meats good sauces and sides. I picked the tumeric chicken next time I'd opt for the steak. Pro tip ask for the sauces on the side.

    Has a huge craving for Mediterranean food and found this place when i was browsing Yelp! I decided to create my own bowl with: Rice, Spring Mix, Pesto Chicken, and all the veggies. As for sauces / spreads, i had 2 scoops of tzatziki and 1 scoop of lemon artichoke hummus (max 3). My last set of sauces were pesto, Moroccan hot sauce, and garlic sauce. With tax, the total came out to be nearly $18.50 a little on the pricier side. All the flavors paired together so well, extremely flavorful! The portions are really good too because I still had leftovers to take back and still tasted fresh after a weekend in the fridge. The only thing I noticed were that the rice still was slightly hard. I'm not sure if the time I came (around 12pm) didn't give them enough time to let the rice cook more or maybe needed more water. Other than that, the staff member that served me was super kind and friendly, he kept checking in on me to make sure everything was good. So sweet! I'll definitely come back to try their other marinated chicken flavors!

    Best falafel wrap

    Wow, we stopped here for a quick meal en route from San Diego to LA & were totally blown away by the food quality & selection. The sheer number of options is almost overwhelming, but based on everything we tasted, you can't go wrong. Though there's an Hibachi Boss menu (Asian fusion noodles/rice w/various proteins), we went with the Mediterranean Hummus Way menu. This included either bowls, loaded fries or wraps with proteins (chicken or try-tip shawarma, chicken/steak/shrimp/salmon kabab, falafel, etc.), rice or greens, a huge variety of spreads (traditional hummus, garlic sauce, cilantro pesto, Moroccan hot sauce, lemon & olive oil, etc.) plus all the toppings (tabbouleh, cucumbers, feta, tomato, onions, etc.) For context, we're huge Mediterranean food fans & have 2 spots we love in SD that we hit weekly. Hummus Way was far better & tastier in every way. My husband had the falafel wrap containing falafel fried on the spot with the works (you can pick 3 spreads) which he said was the best he ever tasted. Our chicken kabab plate & bowl was also made from scratch with the tender breast meat (the less dry & more $$ layer below the breast)...not only was the meat super-moist, it was also cooked & seasoned to perfection. I loved the hummus & toasted pita that came with the plate, & the accompanying salad was literally the lightest & freshest one I've tasted in a take-out grill like this. Finally, the service provided by the manager could not have been more helpful or courteous. He went above & beyond to guide us while ordering & then prepared our meal personally. Yes, making meals to order can take a few more minutes, but the end result is so worth any wait. Honestly, such high quality & care (not to mention pride in the product) is increasingly rare these days, so we really appreciated it. Delicious food plus great service means we'll find a way back...we're already looking forward to our next excuse for a road trip to make that happen :)

    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
    Marina S.

    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!

    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.

    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!

    Beef and Chicken Kabob combo plate!
    Joanna J.

    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!

    Kathy A.

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

    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.

    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!

    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.

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

My daughter had the Spanikopita appetizer which looked really good with a lot of filling. My wife had the soup that was very tasty, with dill sprinkled on top, cannot remember the name. The soup was steaming hot, which is how I like any soup to be served. For dessert we had a Baklava that was sweet, but so crispy it was a bit hard to eat, almost too dense and crispy-dry. Definitely worthy of a 5 star rating. Someone who is serious about quality ingredients designed this menu. I would enjoy eating here again.

The ingredients tasted fresh, the portions were generous, and every bite was full of flavor. The customer service was impeccable. Everyone was welcoming, friendly, and patient, making us feel like valued guests from the moment we walked in. Great food is one thing, but exceptional hospitality is what keeps people coming back and DönerG absolutely delivers both. One of my favorite parts of the experience was watching the meat slowly roasting on the vertical spit. It made me wonder if this was the inspiration behind Mexico's famous al pastor, and sure enough, it is! Learning about that culinary connection made the meal even more enjoyable.
